Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

Lin Qianqian turned a deaf ear to Qing'er's cries. Her body was in pain and every pore was trembling wildly with pain and anger.

She was finished! Everything was over. She was no longer worthy of her cousin.

Lin Qianqian stared blankly at the sky, a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye, and distant thoughts gradually filled her heart.

Lin Qianqian was reborn, and she still remembered things from her previous life.

At that time, Zhu's cousin Zhu Jingxing was the top three in high school entrance examination. The Zhu family became very prosperous and was no longer the small farming family it used to be.

And she, Lin Qianqian, was just a distant relative who had nothing to do with the Zhu family. Because her family fell into poverty, she had to come to the Zhu family and seek shelter.

At that time, the Zhu family had only two masters, the sixteen-year-old Zhu Jingxing and the eight-year-old Zhu Jingshu. The twelve-year-old Lin Qianqian wanted to try her best to please the two so that she could have a better life in the Zhu family.

My cousin did not treat me badly just because I was an orphan with no one to rely on. In terms of food, clothing and other expenses, she was the best one except for the Zhu brothers and sisters.

She always thought that her cousin was interested in her, but was busy with his career and there were no elders in the family to arrange a marriage, so he had not expressed his feelings to her.

Until that day, she heard the twelve-year-old Zhu Jingshu say to her cousin: "Brother, do you like Sister Lin?"

My cousin didn't answer, but asked: "Do you like her?"

Zhu Jingshu held her little face with her hands, and her lively eyes blinked on her innocent and clear face like a deer.

“It’s not a matter of liking or not, but I often heard her mention that my mother had met her mother once.

Brother, you know, I was with our mother during her last days. I watched her become thinner and thinner, but I could do nothing.

Whenever I think of this, I feel heartbroken. Brother, you said that mother won’t suffer in heaven, right?

The cousin touched Zhu Jingshu's hair tenderly, his voice extremely gentle.

“My mother is the best person in the world.

When you were still in your mother's womb, your father died in an accident. It was your mother who worked day and night to raise us and pay for my education.

But when I passed the imperial examination and returned home in glory, my mother had died due to overwork and was unable to recover. No medical treatment was available.

Not being able to let my mother enjoy a happy life is my brother’s biggest regret in life.

As for Lin Qianqian, my brother is only taking care of her because my mother and her mother have met once before."

“But Sister Lin is already sixteen years old. A few years ago, I asked someone to look for her, but she refused to give in and refused to leave the house.

I think she likes you." Zhu Jingshu put down her hand that was supporting her face and stared at her brother with her big eyes.

"Then let's find someone else to look for her and marry her off by the end of the year. Don't let outsiders think that my Zhu family has wasted her.

Leave this matter to Aunt Wang, and don't get involved as a twelve-year-old girl like you!" The cousin tapped Zhu Jingshu's head affectionately, smiling gently.

Later, she was hastily married off. Her husband was a young scholar whose family owned some land and shops, so they had no worries about food and clothing.

But she was so unwilling to accept this. Compared with her cousin, this husband was like a firefly competing with the sun and the moon.

Her cousin had a successful career in the government, and later, after the death of Emperor Tianqi, he assisted Emperor Tianqi's younger brother, the Prince of Qi, to ascend the throne. He was credited with following the emperor and held the highest position among ministers.

Zhu Jingshu even married the Prince of Qi and became the queen who ruled the country, enjoying endless wealth and glory throughout her life.

However, she lost her husband in a flood several years ago, struggled in the world as a widow, and eventually died of overwork.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back to the time when she first arrived at the Zhu family at the age of twelve. She almost cried for joy!

God gave her a chance to live again, and she must not live her life as a coward like in her previous life.

She must marry her cousin and become the wife of a future powerful official to make up for the regrets of her previous life!

In this life, she still tried her best to please the Zhu brothers and sisters. The difference was that she treated Zhu Jingshu better and more considerately than she treated Zhu Jingxing.

Because she knew that her cousin valued his sister very much, and with Zhu Jingshu's support, she would definitely be able to become her cousin's wife!

She often told Zhu Jingshu that she only treated her cousin as a brother and there was no love between men and women, in order to prevent Zhu Jingshu from noticing her feelings like in her previous life and instigating her cousin to marry her off hastily.

She stayed in the Zhu family for six years, and a woman's best years were wasted on her cousin.

She is already 29 years old this year and is a real old maid.

In the past few years, Zhu Jingshu wanted to find someone for her several times, but she rejected him every time with various reasons.

Perhaps it was because she disguised herself very well that the Zhu brothers and sisters were unaware of her feelings for Zhu Jingxing and thought that she just didn't want to get married because she was indifferent to the world.

My cousin has been an adult for two years, but he has not yet married and does not even have a maid, so people from all walks of life are eyeing him covetously.

Many maids in the Zhu Mansion were trying their best to climb into their cousin's bed.

Those who were bold enough to seduce, those who had the intention but not the courage, and those who were suspicious were all dealt with by her one by one.

As for the daughters of high-ranking officials and dignitaries outside, they boast of their noble status and try every means to get close to my cousin, wanting to marry him and become the mistress of the Zhu family.

Therefore, since I lived in the Zhu family but my surname was not Zhu, I became a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh. They would mock and ridicule me whenever they saw me.

But so what?

It was precisely because he had no one to rely on that he was able to live in the Zhu Mansion and see his cousin every day.

She has been devoted to her cousin for her two lifetimes. How could she let someone else take the position of her cousin's wife just because of her poor family background?

She can only be my cousin’s wife!

Six years have passed, and even a stone should have warmed up, but her cousin has always been lukewarm towards her.

Every time she saw her cousin doting and loving Zhu Jingshu, she became jealous to the point of going crazy!

Is it true that as long as Zhu Jingshu is around, my cousin will never notice my existence!

What if Zhu Jingshu died?

Maybe God heard her wish and the opportunity soon came.

A flood occurred in the south of Daliang, and the victims fled north to escape the famine.

The previous Changzhou prefect was incompetent, so many disaster victims flocked to the capital.

Emperor Tianqi was furious and ordered him to be beheaded. He also ordered his cousin to take over the post of prefect of Changzhou and quickly handle the disaster relief matters in Changzhou.

On the way to the post, the conditions were difficult. Zhu Jingshu, who had been weak since childhood, caught a cold as expected and had intermittent symptoms without any improvement.

She secretly led the victims to riot, separating her cousin from her and Zhu Jingshu.

When her cousin found her, she lied that Zhu Jingshu was lost.

In fact, she had already secretly thrown the dying Zhu Jingshu into a dilapidated temple and hid her there, leaving her to die slowly.

She thought that without Zhu Jingshu, she would be the closest person to her cousin, and her wish would soon be fulfilled.

But Zhu Jingshu was not dead! She even came to Changzhou.

She had to kill Zhu Jingshu again, otherwise she would tell her cousin that she had abandoned her, and then she would never have the chance to be with her cousin again.

So she found Ge Da and asked him to kill Zhu Jingshu.

But Zhu Jingshu seemed like a different person. Not only was she not killed, she also teamed up with Ge Da to harm her.

It's too late now. She has lost her innocence and is no longer worthy of her cousin.

Was her only wish in these two lifetimes shattered just like that?

No, no, she can't give up!

Anyone who knew about this died.

Lin Qianqian moved her eyes away from the sky and looked at Qing'er who was looking at her with concern.

Qing'er was very loyal to me. Even after I became a widow in my previous life, she still followed me tirelessly.

However, in order to cover up what happened today, Qing'er must die!

Lin Qianqian touched a stone at hand and smashed it on Qing'er's head without hesitation.

And there is Ge Da.

And there is Zhu Jingshu.

Only if you die can I marry my cousin safely.
