This girl is a streetwalker in the demon world

As mentioned in the previous article when An Ling met Xie Kuorong, Liu Xiahui was deeply stimulated by the fact that Yu Lang was actually a member of the Futian Army. By accident, her madness was cured. Without Yu Lang as a support point, Xie Kuorong and Liu Xiahui did not have much to talk about when they were alone. After a deep conversation, they parted ways in Yangguan.

Xie Kurong continued to wander the world like a shadow, and would take action for the injustices he encountered on the road. He was also a lonely ranger; while Liu Xiahui, after returning to Shanhai Academy and seeing Principal Li Mo for the last time, resolutely returned to the imperial capital and plunged into the political vortex.

The three of them have different ambitions and ideals. Even though they have been through many ups and downs together for many years, they eventually go their separate ways. But no matter what, the starting point of each of them is just. It's just that how much of this sincere justice can be achieved is not something they can decide.

All I can say is that sincere people who get involved in political disputes rarely have a good ending.

Liu Xiahui used to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but he was still thrown into prison and tortured half to death. After finally curing his madness, he was ready to return to the imperial capital to assist the wise emperor, but he fell out of favor with his party and was demoted. Even the most loyal person was unwilling to endure this humiliation.

Yu Lang was young and ignorant, and he believed the instigation of the eloquent Hu, the state teacher of Dayi, and worked hard to overthrow the mountain that oppressed the human race. Little did he know that this guy who kept saying everything for the human race was not even a human being. He was just a ball of clean air.

The chess player stirs up the situation and uses all living beings as chess pieces. He calculates over and over again, but in the end, the only ones who suffer are the common people.

By this calculation, the smartest of the Three Immortals of the East China Sea should be Xie Kuorong. Not only did he break his own slave shackles, he also earned some freedom between heaven and earth. The price was just long-term loneliness.

But who knows the ending?

……

Just as Han Fu was about to step out of the door, the waiter returned and said to Han Fu anxiously, "Master, something bad has happened! People from the imperial court are here!"

"what!"

Hearing the word "imperial court", Lin Ji only raised his eyebrows slightly, without much reaction. Well, people with his background look at people other than cultivators no differently. For Lin Ji, it doesn't matter whether one is strong or not, what matters is the independence of personality, so he respects Aunt Zhou and the teachers of Shanhai Academy so much.

Liu Xiahui and Han Fu were not so lucky. They had been influenced by Confucianism since childhood and naturally had ten thousand points of respect for the court and the emperor. Although they were severely tricked and their respect dropped by 9,000 points, they still had 1,000 points hidden in their hearts. When they heard that the court was coming, the two of them reflexively adjusted their clothes and prepared to receive the imperial edict.

The waiter continued, "It's a lady from the palace who said she came to visit the master."

"Oh——" Both of them put their hands down again.

Lin Ji watched their little movements, but he didn't react at all.

Han Fu thought for a moment and said to himself, "As I recall, the female students in our academy usually go to the imperial court to take the imperial examinations and become court ladies. When have any of them entered the palace?"

"Humph, what a waste of poetry and books," Liu Xiahui snorted coldly, "I have studied in the academy for so many years and learned so many skills, is it just to enter the palace and give birth to a son for the emperor?"

The waiter bowed his head hastily after hearing these presumptuous words. Han Fu sighed and advised, "Don't be like that. Maybe he is a child of a noble family."

"Let her in!" Liu Xiahui waved her sleeves and turned around, facing the door with her back.

The waiter hurried out to report, but Lin Ji looked at the angry Liu Xiahui with some surprise. Didn't Master Liu love the court the most? Why did he act like this?

Han Fu gently tugged at the sleeve of this outstanding student and whispered, "He is very ambitious. He always wonders every day when our emperor will change his mind and give him an imperial decree to let him return to the capital to lead the military. He is looking forward to it. Now his wish has finally come true, but it is the most despicable female disciple who enters the palace. Tell me, how can he be happy about this?"

"Why does Master Liu dislike female disciples entering the palace?"

"The cost of training a Shanhai student is much higher than raising a concubine in the deep palace. Shanhai Academy teaches mostly astronomy and geography, civil and military strategies, as well as medicine and craftsmanship. It is to use the knowledge in the heart to benefit the people. You say, for such a person not to contribute to Daxuan, but to serve the emperor as a concubine, isn't it... a bit of a waste?"

Lin Ji sighed, so that's how it is, women without spiritual roots really have a hard time in this world.

Not long after, the sound of golden bells colliding was heard outside the door. Lin Ji was stunned before the man entered the room.

"Let's stop here. I'll go in by myself." The woman said softly.

"No! Your Majesty's precious body cannot be exposed in front of people!" the shrill eunuch replied.

"Do you think anyone can hurt me?" the woman threatened coldly, "I don't think you want to take this life!"

"No, no, no, your Majesty... your Majesty, please..."

The woman asked the palace maids and eunuchs to wait outside the door, and she walked into the main hall of Shanhai Academy alone.

The good old man Han Fu immediately put on a friendly smile and greeted, "Welcome back!"

The woman looked around and could only sigh: "After so many years, I finally came back here."

Han Fu looked at the unfamiliar face of the woman. Even though he had an extraordinary memory and could recite all the books in the library by heart, he was still stunned. For a moment, he couldn't find a matching face!

"Is this Master Han?" the woman said with a smile. "I was still young when I came here to learn punctuation. You may not remember me. I am the daughter of the Shao family!"

"Ah!" Han Fu said excitedly, "Shao Family! I remember now. Ten years ago, there was indeed a little girl with poor health who was sent to study in the academy. Oh my God, you... you are so big now! You have grown into a big girl!"

Lin Ji silently hid his one hand under his sleeve and made hand gestures, looking at her warily.

What queen? This is a monk! And not just any monk!

"Are you a monk?" Liu Xiahui suddenly asked.

The woman then realized that there was a teacher standing in the hall, so she smiled, put her hands in front of her stomach, bowed gracefully to Liu Xiahui, and replied, "The teacher has good eyesight."

"you……"

"I am not only a cultivator, but also a disciple of Canglan Sword Sect, one of the six major sects!"

"Shao Shuang'er, meet the Master."

"To make a long story short, may I talk to you for a moment? I don't have much time to come and go freely." Shao Shuang'er said.

Lin Ji frowned tightly. Why, why? Why would a disciple of Canglan Sword Sect enter the palace to become a queen?

Liu Xiahui's hair and beard fluttered slightly. After a moment, he turned around and looked at Shao Shuang'er, saying, "The ban has been set up. Everyone present is ours."

Shao Shuang'er was tall, and standing in front of the men, she was not inferior to any of them, and was even only half a head shorter than the tallest person present, Lin Ji. She no longer carried her beloved sword Huanhua, nor wore the high-spirited uniform of a Canglan disciple. Instead, she was dressed in rich palace clothes, with a phoenix crown that belonged to the queen on her head. She had powder on her face, which made her originally elegant appearance like Lin Daiyu instantly become graceful and dignified. In a word, there was no trace of a cultivator in her anymore.

Shao Shuang'er raised her eyebrows, clasped her fists and saluted towards Liu Xiahui, and said with a smile: "I have heard of Master Liu's name from An Ling a long time ago, but unfortunately the palace rules are very strict, so I can only meet him today. Please forgive me, Master."

"You know An Ling, and you are a disciple of Canglan Sword Sect, so why did you enter the palace?" Liu Xiahui asked a question that everyone present wanted to know.

Shao Shuang'er just smiled and replied, "The Immortal Sect and the Emperor Taishang were in trouble at the same time. The situation in the imperial capital was treacherous, and there were countless evil demons secretly lurking, trying to replace me. I just made the most correct choice after weighing the pros and cons."

"People from Canglan Sword Sect..." Lin Ji looked at Shao Shuang'er who was still faking a smile, and sighed in his heart, "That is definitely not her happiest choice."

"Then why did you come to the academy today?" Han Fu asked hurriedly. He felt that Shao Shuang'er seemed to have some ideas, but he was still not sure, so he asked quickly.

"I want to take advantage of this opportunity to steal the throne and restore order!"
