Quick Wear: I and the Female Match Share the Battle Shirt

Chapter 52 The Time Traveler Who Was Cannon Fodder (5)

Lu Changqing raised the half-broken tablet in her hand and smashed it at the black-clothed man's head. When the man raised his hand to block, she jumped off the bed and kicked him in the crotch.

The man in black stepped back quickly, stretched out his right foot to hook a round stool next to him and kicked it towards Lu Changqing to block her next move. He then quickly went around to the window next to him, pushed it open, jumped down and ran away.

Lu Changqing didn't chase after him, but just walked over and closed the window again.

She knew who the visitor was, Qi Cheng, and he came for the three thousand taels of silver he had given her that morning.

Lu Changqing could figure out Qi Cheng's intention of stealing her money with her heels. Wasn't it just to make her unable to live alone outside, and then return to the general's mansion in shame to beg him to take her in and be obedient to be his concubine?

The old guy's abacus is jingling loudly, just like a pig wearing a bra, one set after another, not only romantic but also obscene.

he—tui!

The next morning, after Lu Changqing had finished his meal, he went to the blacksmith shop, gestured to the boss to tell him his request, and after waiting for an hour or so, he came out with the things.

I walked through two streets, crossed a bridge, and finally arrived at a coffin shop. I left with satisfaction about an hour later.

Lu Changqing was no longer in a hurry to find a job. He just wandered around the city all day, strolling here and looking there. When he got tired, he went back to the inn to rest, and then went out to wander around again.

Just when she was wondering why Qi Cheng hadn't come to steal her house yet, Xie Yuanshuang came to her first.

Led by the maid, Lu Changqing went up to the private room on the second floor of the restaurant. As soon as he entered, he saw Xie Yuanshuang sitting at the table making tea. Her movements were smooth and pleasing to the eye.

"Please!" Seeing that Lu Changqing had arrived, Xie Yuanshuang politely led her to sit down.

Lu Changqing sat down and asked directly, "Madam, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"I heard that Miss Fang has been looking for work in the city these days?"

Lu Changqing raised his eyebrows, "Madam is quite well-informed."

Xie Yuanshuang drove everyone else out of the room, poured a bowl of tea for Lu Changqing, and then said slowly: "Do you know that there has been someone following you these days?"

"I know, it must be Qi Cheng's people."

Xie Yuanshuang asked in surprise: "Aren't you afraid?"

"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that he will force me to take your daughter away and imprison me? I'm not bragging, he really doesn't dare to touch me now."

"You seem to know him very well?"

Lu Changqing stretched out his index finger and shook it. "I don't just understand him. I understand this creature called 'man' in this world. As long as you learn to demystify men, then men will no longer be mysterious in your eyes."

Xie Yuanshuang asked curiously, "Demystify? What does that mean?"

Lu Changqing simply explained: "It means that I am no longer obsessed with or worshipping men."

Seeing Xie Yuanshuang lowering her eyes in deep thought, Lu Changqing said bluntly, "Don't think about it. Your attitude towards Qi Cheng now is not called disenchantment. That's called giving your all but not getting any reward and losing your life. That's called turning love into hate."

Xie Yuanshuang's thoughts were guessed, and she looked a little awkward, "How do you know what I'm thinking? Are you also fascinated by women?"

Lu Changqing was amused by Xie Yuanshuang's words, "Women won't exploit, trample and enslave me for my whole life without any guilt, so why should I demystify women?"

After thinking carefully about what Lu Changqing said, Xie Yuanshuang raised her own question: "Then can I understand that you think men will exploit and trample on you, so you want to disenchant them?"

"No, no, no, my situation is a bit special. It's not a question of whether to dispel the enchantment or not. I'm not afraid to tell you clearly that I simply hate men as a group. I hate every one of them equally, and your prince is no exception."

Xie Yuanshuang: ...

"Do you know what crime you will be charged with if this is heard and spread by outsiders?"

Lu Changqing squinted at Xie Yuanshuang, "Isn't there no one here? Are you going to tell on me?"

Xie Yuanshuang shook his head: "I won't tell on you. I just don't understand why you have a problem with the prince, who is such a good person?"

Lu Changqing clasped his hands together and clapped his hands excitedly, saying, "Look, your current behavior is a blind obsession and worship of men!"

Lu Changqing began to poke people in the chest, "In your eyes, the prince is so good and handsome in every way. He loves you deeply and died to avenge you, which moved you to tears. But in my opinion, he fought against the fourth prince more for power. He died not for any other reason, but because he was not strong enough."

Xie Yuanshuang's face really turned ugly.

Lu Changqing ignored Xie Yuanshuang's expression and continued, "I'm not belittling your feelings for him, nor am I jealous and wanting to break up your marriage. I just want to tell you that when we look at men, we must be aware of their bad natures and think from all sides. Don't really believe that he did that for you just because he said he was going to avenge you."

"Do I need to tell you how much men care about power? Why did Qi Cheng marry you? You didn't understand it when you were alive in your previous life. Don't you understand it after you died once? Qi Cheng married you for a smooth career. In order to gain a higher position of power, he risked the execution of his entire clan to help the Fourth Prince force the emperor to abdicate. Why can't the Crown Prince fight back to protect his own power?"

"Do you know what your problem is? It's not that you love the prince, but that you love him too much. You have completely deified him in your heart. You are so blind that you don't even consider or accept that he has any selfish motives. Your current situation is very dangerous, do you know that?"

Lu Changqing's words were too direct. Xie Yuanshuang turned her head away and didn't want to listen anymore. "After all, you just feel that the prince doesn't love me wholeheartedly."

"Why do you have to dwell on whether he loves you wholeheartedly? Even if there is utilitarianism in this love, so what? If he wants to marry you after you divorce Qi Cheng, will you not marry him?"

Xie Yuanshuang said angrily: "If he didn't love me wholeheartedly, I would not marry him."

"Are you stupid? Why don't you get married?" Lu Changqing said angrily, "With your family background, do you think your father will let you stay at home forever? Since you have to get married anyway, why don't you marry the powerful prince?"

How wonderful it is to be a crown princess. If nothing unexpected happens, you will become the queen who is second only to the emperor. If the emperor dies early, you will become the empress dowager. If the new emperor has a short life, you will become the grand empress dowager.

If you are not cruel enough, you can learn from Liu E and rule the country. If you are cruel enough, you can learn from Emperor Wu and replace the Zhou Dynasty. It's a nice thought.

If it was Lu Changqing, she would have left the general's mansion and returned to the Xie family with her dowry after her husband's death, and then quickly married the prince, and killed the Fourth Prince before he could become powerful.

After the prince becomes emperor, we will feed him some good food to ruin his health. It would be best if he becomes like a consumptive patient, half dead and half alive.

Things were much simpler afterwards. He would review memorials and control the government, and when the time was right, he would send the emperor to his death. Once he took that position, he would confiscate the property of those who needed to be confiscated, behead those who needed to be beheaded, clean up the court, and replace them with his own people.

After having a female emperor herself, there will gradually be crown princesses, female generals, female prime ministers, female teachers, female schools and so on.

It's a pity that she is not the heroine who has everything, but the supporting actress who has nothing. It is too difficult for her to become an emperor with her current status.

Xie Yuanshuang asked back, "If he doesn't love me with all his heart, why should I marry him?"

Lu Changqing really wanted to turn into the Roaring Emperor, holding Xie Yuanshuang's shoulders to shake the brains in her head, "You have died once, and you are still entangled in love? Haven't you suffered enough from men?"

"My dear sister, men may betray you, but power will not!" Lu Changqing clenched his fist with full confidence and determination.

Xie Yuanshuang looked away, not meeting Lu Changqing's eyes, "The prince wouldn't be that kind of person."

Lu Changqing pounded his chest weakly, wanting to cry but unable to, "Why are you so sure that he won't? I remember that you didn't really have any contact with him in private, so how can you be sure that he is a man who is loyal to love? Just based on the two years you spent floating beside him after becoming a ghost?"

"Do you know what he did for me after I died?"

Lu Changqing said nonchalantly, "Isn't it just that I hid a room full of your portraits and slept with your paintings in my arms every day? Then what?"

"Doesn't this prove that he loves me deeply?"

Lu Changqing is really...crying to death, what kind of love is this? I was also so crazy about chasing stars in junior high school, okay!!!

"Well, even if he loved you at that time, how can you be sure that he can love you forever?"

"I believe in him."

Here it comes again, the sentence "I believe in him".

There's nothing to believe in. When that man really breaks his oath and has three thousand beauties in his harem, the sweet pet slapping story will turn into a heart-wrenching palace fighting story.

Lu Changqing had already thought of the rest of the plot for her. The heroine was physically and mentally abused, became depressed and finally died. After the heroine's death, the scumbag repented and chased his wife to the crematorium. Either she lived a life of drunkenness and dreams, or she lived a life of luxury and regret. In the end, they both lived a life of luxury and happiness.

That's enough!

Lu Changqing rested his elbows on the table, holding his head in his hands as if he didn't want to talk.

Seeing that Lu Changqing ignored her, Xie Yuanshuang asked tentatively, "Are you angry?"

Lu Changqing said weakly: "No, I just feel a little tired."

"because I?"

Lu Changqing squeezed out three words from between his teeth in dissatisfaction, "What do you think?"

After a while, Xie Yuanshuang said softly: "I know you are saying this for my own good."

Lu Changqing lowered one hand, glanced at Xie Yuanshuang weakly and said, "You know I'm doing this for your own good, so why don't you listen to me? I'm not stopping you from liking the prince, I'm just asking you not to think so highly of him, not to let your mind be filled with love affairs, and think more about practical things."

Xie Yuanshuang stopped talking again, just staring straight ahead, no one knew what he was thinking.

After a while, Xie Yuanshuang suddenly asked, "Is there really no pure love in this world?"

"Maybe. I've seen infatuated lovers who are willing to sacrifice their lives for each other, but there are more bastards who kill their wives for profit."

Xie Yuanshuang said enviously: "Then that woman must be very lucky."

"Lucky? Do you know how much she paid to repay that infatuated man's kindness?"

Yunying could obviously have become a tasker, but because the monk died to save her, she couldn't get over the psychological barrier after his death, so she gave up the chance to become a tasker and asked Lu Changqing to help her counterattack. In the end, she didn't even have an afterlife.

Lu Changqing felt sorry for Yunying, but that was Yunying's own choice.

"What's up with her?"

Lu Changqing shook his head, not wanting to mention Yunying again, "How are you going to deal with Qi Cheng?"

Seeing that Lu Changqing changed the subject, Xie Yuanshuang tactfully stopped asking the previous question and shook her head, "I don't have any plans yet."

Lu Changqing asked: "After your rebirth, have you looked for your father?"

"I haven't had time to go yet."

Lu Changqing suggested to Xie Yuanshuang: "Go find your father and tell him that you had a dream in which Qi Cheng and the Fourth Prince rebelled and killed your family and the Crown Prince. If your father doesn't believe it, tell him about some recent events in the court so that he can prepare in advance."

"what to prepare?"

"Prepare for your divorce from Qi Cheng and overthrow the Fourth Prince's faction."

Xie Yuanshuang frowned slightly, "Qi Cheng won't divorce me easily."

Lu Changqing said expressionlessly: "It's simple. If you don't divorce, you will lose your husband."

Xie Yuanshuang was shocked, "You want to kill Qi Cheng?"

"Why are you so surprised? Don't tell me you still can't bear to part with him."

Xie Yuanshuang said with disgust: "Of course not, I'm just worried about you. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child and has been on the battlefield. How can a weak woman like you kill him?"

"Don't worry about that. I'm not the real Fang Ming'e. I have plenty of ways to kill Qi Cheng."

"How are you going to kill him?"

"I won't tell you yet." Lu Changqing continued, "By the way, take your people away from me and don't let them follow me. Their presence may ruin my plans."

Xie Yuanshuang asked worriedly, "What about your safety?"

"I will be fine. Qi Cheng and his useless subordinates are no match for me."

Xie Yuanshuang asked in surprise: "You know martial arts?"

Lu Changqing raised his eyebrows as a reply.

"Who are you?"

Lu Changqing scratched his eyebrows with his little finger and said proudly: "Didn't I tell you? Fairies have descended to earth."

Xie Yuanshuang: ...

The fairies in the storybooks were all graceful and elegant, not like the person in front of him who started to act frivolous after just a few words.

Xie Yuanshuang looked at Lu Changqing, thought about it again and again, and finally asked: "Why are you helping me?"

"There's no reason. I just want to help."

Xie Yuanshuang said sincerely: "Thank you."

"It's not done yet. Even if you want to thank me, it won't be too late to thank me after I finish the work."

Lu Changqing stood up, straightened the wrinkles on her skirt, and said goodbye to Xie Yuanshuang, "I won't stay any longer. Think about what I just said to you when you have time. 'A man's love can be broken, but a woman's love cannot be said.' You should know the meaning of this sentence. Our ancestors taught us this truth thousands of years ago. Don't die once and still not learn your lesson."

Xie Yuanshuang didn't understand. Lu Changqing wanted her to marry the prince, but also asked her not to devote her wholeheartedly to this relationship. What should she do?

"What I want you to learn is very simple." Lu Changqing supported himself on the table with one hand, leaned over and looked down at Xie Yuanshuang, "Love power more than you love men, love yourself more, be prepared for danger in times of peace, always leave yourself a way out, and don't put your entire future on a man's conscience."
