The Queen travels through time and dominates the four realms

"If it is really as Master He said, then we are truly treacherous people. Before that, my father did not make me completely cut off ties with the He family and have no contact with them.

Until one day, my father did not use carrier pigeons to deliver the message, but came back to Jiangliu Town in person. That night my father told me something. The emperor asked several officials to set up an investigation team to thoroughly investigate the Cao Gang that monopolized all the shipping routes, big and small, in the world.

I don't know whether the emperor did it intentionally or unintentionally, but my father was appointed as one of the officials. My father was even worried that the things he had secretly done for the Cao Gang before were actually discovered by the emperor a long time ago. So this time it was just a scheme by the emperor to catch them all in one fell swoop under the name of investigation.

In order to protect himself, my father had to return to Jiangliu Town immediately that night to inform my mother and me to make all possible preparations. He would try his best to erase the evidence of the secret things he had done for the Cao Gang.

My father knew very well that if these things were discovered by the emperor, the only outcome for the Luo family would be the execution of the entire family.

And at this time, when my father was paving a way for our Luo family to save themselves in Jiangliu Town, He Qing, your father, actually came to my father and asked my father to help you obtain the right to supply all sea salt in the southeastern waters of the court for the next six months.

I secretly watched the whole process that time, and saw how my father earnestly told your father about his helplessness that he was about to be beheaded. He also mentioned that he was very grateful for your father's support and help along the way, which was why he helped your father do some things at the risk of being beheaded.

My father repeatedly emphasized that at that time, the emperor was watching every move of the Cao Gang, and that the Cao Gang must not move again, otherwise they would only bring about their own destruction.

But your father ignored my father's objection and threatened that this stage was the fastest development stage of the Southeastern Branch of the Cao Gang, and he had to strike while the iron was hot. If he did not seize this opportunity, other branches would be the first to seize the right to sell salt in the sea area. At this time, he would have no advantage, which would directly threaten his Southeastern Branch's position as the largest branch in the Cao Gang.

Your father also said that you should not be timid when doing big things. I supported my father in the beginning so that he could help me now. We can help each other and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.

No matter what my father said to your father, and sincerely advised your father that he was in danger of being beheaded at any time and anywhere, your father never listened. He even threatened my father that if he didn't help him this time, he would take back all the previous sponsorship and make my father return all the benefits he had received from him.

Not to mention my father, even I, who was watching from the side at the time, felt heartbroken.

At that time, I felt that the distance between our two families was not the distance between houses, but the cognition of the world!

My father is an official, so he is naturally bound by the system promulgated by the emperor of our dynasty. But your father is a man of the underworld, and he has no constraints or rules at all when doing things. You can't understand that as an official, my father is like living with a tiger when accompanying the emperor, and he may be in danger of losing his head at any time.

From that moment on, even before my dad mentioned it to me, I felt that there would be no going forward between us because we no longer had a common destination.

After hearing what your father said, my father was completely disappointed in your father, as if all the things he had done for your father before, which almost got him beheaded, were not worth a thing in your father's eyes. He always treated my father as the person who only took benefits from him but did nothing else.

Your father and my father parted on bad terms that day, and my father told me that night that it would be best for me to cut off all ties with you, because if he continued to help your father do these desperate things, there would be only one end for our Luo family, and that was to be executed by the entire family.

I naturally understood the reason, so from that time on, I tried every possible way to talk to you.

But at that time, no matter how I hinted, you wouldn't listen, so I planned to tell you in person that I wanted to break off the engagement with you.

Unexpectedly, after my father found out, he scolded me severely and said, no matter what, I have helped your father so much, but your father is going to ask me to pay back so much money, doesn't that mean we are going to break up.

My father told me that I must get the betrothal gift from the He family no matter what, as compensation for risking my life over the years.

Later, after you sent the betrothal gifts, I took the initiative to think of a way, which was to pretend that I had an affair with another man in my room so that you would give up.

Unexpectedly, Xia Ju and I had already discussed it, but a maid suddenly showed up, Chunxi! She didn't know the man I brought with me, so she told me that if this was discovered, I would be ruined, and the He family had many spies. If this was discovered and spread, I would never be able to marry anyone else, so she thought of a way and said that she would come out to replace me and be the one who had an affair.

On the same night that she helped me deceive He Qing, this bitch maid came to me again and said that she would marry into the He family in my place.

I was grateful at the time and told my father about this plan, but my father was very cautious and told me that I cannot trust everyone in this world. This maid was helping me without any compensation, so he asked me to ask her what the conditions were for helping me and what she wanted. If she couldn't tell me, I should not agree.

I asked Chunxi what she wanted from helping me like this, and she replied that she wanted me to take care of her family and arrange a decent house for them in Jiangliu Town so that they could live a good life.

When I heard this, I agreed immediately, and I also asked my father. My father said that he would agree to this condition as long as it was equal to what she had contributed.

Then Chunxi married into the He family in my place, and we accepted the betrothal gift from the He family.

Now it seems that if I say that this maid didn't plan it in advance, I will never believe it.

Because I found that when I saw Chunxi yesterday, the way she looked at me was as if she was telling me that she won.

I realized that the whole thing was not that simple. Before this, I didn't want to draw a line between us because I believed that these conflicts came from the values ​​of my parents' generation.

I still have the beautiful memories of those years with you, so I feel that no matter what, I will marry into the He family, because I find that I still want to be with you, I don't want to have any regrets, and I want to see what will happen if I choose you.

Also, because I saw how well you took care of the pregnant Chunxi, I realized that maybe you and your father were not the same kind of people. So I planned to marry you in my own name, and it had nothing to do with my father.

Now that I have made the choice, I have no regrets.

Even though I knew this might be a trap, I still brought the betrothal gifts you sent me before as my dowry.

This is the fate that all infatuated women in the world deserve. I have learned a lesson. I will apologize to my father when I go back.

But from today, at this moment, I have nothing to do with your He family anymore!"

After Luo Yuer finished speaking, she looked calm and walked towards the door without even looking at He Qing, her eyes full of determination.

He Qing was shocked after hearing this and grabbed Luo Yuer who was walking out:

"Yu'er, is that so? You...you and I last night...you have never had sex with a man before...was it your first time with me last night?"

He Qing looked at Luo Yuer with a look in his eyes that seemed to want to dig a hole in her body.

Seeing that Luo Yuer said nothing and ignored him as if he didn't exist and just kept walking out, He Qing was actually a little panicked.

Regardless of the presence of Chunxi and He Dong, and the plan that Yingzi had previously mentioned, he suddenly grabbed Luo Yuer's hand.

As he pulled, Luo Yuer knocked his hand off.

A firm and resolute attitude of separation.

"He Qing, I'm warning you. From now on, if you touch me again, I will do something you will regret."

Luo Yuer said coldly with her back to him, without even looking at him, her attitude was extremely resolute.

He Qing seemed to have thought of a lot of things in an instant, and his face showed a lot of pain.

Shadow looked at Ho Tung, who just drank his tea without saying a word. Luo Yuer had a determined look on her face and never looked at Ho Tung or his son again.

Shadow saw this Rashomon clearly. This was a real version of Rashomon being played out in front of her. Everyone was saying the part that was most advantageous to themselves and the version that was most advantageous to themselves.

At this moment, through the statements of several parties, she finally saw the full picture of the matter.

This is a conflict of interest. Both parties did not get what they thought they deserved, and the conflict arose. Unfortunately, this conflict involved the marriage of the two families, which led to tragedy. The maid who intervened in the middle also wanted to seek a good life for her family for her own benefit, but she said in front of her that Luo Yuer threatened and kidnapped her.

The people in front of the shadow are all playing their own Rashomon roles.

It was as if he knew that what he said was not the truth, and Luo Yuer had already let Shadow know another angle of the matter, allowing Shadow to restore the original appearance of the whole thing.

Chunxi, who was sitting there and was exposed, felt a little guilty. He couldn't help but look up at the shadow a few times, with a hint of panic, but trying hard to conceal it.

Luo Yuer continued:

"Now, you have successfully taken back the betrothal gifts. We in the Luo family don't owe you anything anymore. He Qing, let me tell you, from now on, we are done with each other and we will have no further contact until we die."

After saying this, Luo Yuer walked out.

But He Qing, who knew the truth, hugged her from behind and said heartbreakingly:

"Yu'er! It's Brother Qing who is wrong. Brother Qing, now I know your heart. You want to go on with me, and so does Brother Qing. The grudges of the previous generation have actually separated you and me. Brother Qing has always had you in his heart. I... I was blinded by anger, and... and this bitch has been saying... that you had an affair with that man and have been... always lying to me first. Today I know that you have always been pure and innocent, and you have always had me in your heart. Yu'er, it's Brother Qing who is wrong. Brother Qing apologizes to you. Can we go back to the way we were before?"

Shadow sighed.

There are some things in this world that once they happen, you can never go back.

For example, emotions, the feeling between people.

Yingzi no longer tried to persuade He Qing because she already knew the truth of the matter.

Luo Yuer stopped talking and walked straight out the door. He Dong saw this and did not ask anyone to stop her. The reason was obvious. He had already got what he wanted and all the betrothal gifts were returned. What reason did he have to stop her?

On the contrary, leaving Luo Yuer here and making things difficult for me every day, wouldn't that just make things more difficult for me?

If she wants to leave, let her go.

So he said to He Qing:

"Qing'er, let her go. You stay. I have something else to tell you."

He Qing, who was feeling mixed emotions of sadness and joy, did not listen to He Dong's words. Seeing Luo Yuer walking out, he chased after her regardless of everything. Luo Yuer shook off his hand, but he chased after her again.

He Dong originally planned to let the people who had just entered the room chase after them, but suddenly he seemed to think of something and asked them to retreat.

Apart from the maid on standby, the only four people left at the scene were Chunxi, who looked uncomfortable, the shadow who had changed his appearance, and Ren Xiaoyao.

He Dong looked at Chunxi and said calmly:

"Go back to your room, be the eldest lady of the He family, give birth to the child, take care of the eldest grandson of the He family, and enjoy your blessings. Don't worry about other things, and just don't know anything."
