Chapter 891 The Scholar Who Abandoned His Husband and Children 1
“Scholar Xiao, Xiaping Prefecture is just thirty li ahead. However, there is a Tiger Crouching Mountain in between. Tiger Crouching Mountain is often haunted by a mountain lord at night. As you can see, it’s getting dark soon. Should we find a place to stay for the night and continue our journey tomorrow morning?”
As soon as Xiao Yun opened her eyes, she heard a middle-aged woman's voice coming through the curtain.
She didn't rush to answer the other person, but first observed the situation around her.
This time, she chose a world derived from a female-dominated novel. She had already read the story synopsis and the original owner's wishes. Although she chose the point of possession herself, there might still be some errors before and after, so she still needed to receive the original owner's memories first.
Fortunately, receiving memories is a matter of a moment and doesn't cause any delays.
After receiving the package, she immediately replied, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Li. See if there are any villages nearby where we can stay. Sister Li has been traveling this road for many years and knows it better than I do. You can decide."
According to the original owner's memories, she is currently on her way to take the imperial examination. She has been away from home for nine days and has only traveled halfway. It will take twenty days to travel from Huilan County, where the original owner lived, to the capital.
This time, she wasn't dressed as the female lead or the supporting female character, but as cannon fodder, and a cannon fodder so dead that no one would even know.
The novel is called "Special Forces Soldier Transmigrates to a Female-Dominated World and Slays All Sides". The female protagonist is a special forces soldier in modern times. During a mission, a vicious bandit detonates a bomb in his hand, killing her and the other person.
I thought I was done with this glorious life, but I never expected to wake up again. When I received the original owner's memories, wow, I had actually traveled through time and space, and even arrived in a matriarchal world, becoming an unfavored princess of the Phoenix Cry Kingdom.
The Empress valued the legitimate Crown Princess and doted on the daughter of the Noble Consort, but completely ignored the original owner of this body, who had lost her father at a young age.
It would be understandable if she had so many children that she couldn't remember them all, but she only had three daughters. She did have a few sons, but they were all used for marriage alliances with ministers and were not valued by the time they were born.
Fortunately, the Emperor was fairly in managing the harem and his palace rules were strict. The palace servants dared not mistreat the imperial offspring, nor did they dare to deduct their allowances. As a result, the original owner was able to grow up safely, but she was very invisible and rarely attended important occasions.
Even though she was invisible, people still tried every means to harm her after she turned fifteen, either by poisoning her or by creating accidents. In the end, the original owner was knocked unconscious and thrown into a lotus pond to drown.
The world is set in a matriarchal society where men are superior to women, but it's not the kind of society where men are weak and can only depend on women for survival. Although men give birth, they are very strong and can do farm work and hunt in the mountains without any problems.
They are not restricted from going out, but the rules and laws are relatively strict. They are not as free as women. For example, if a man chooses to join the army or go out to do business, he can only live in a separate household, otherwise he will implicate his family.
Because military households and merchant households could only marry men from military households and merchant households, women generally did not want to marry men from these two types of families, since their descendants could not participate in the imperial examinations to become officials, which meant that their path to officialdom was cut off.
Women in this world not only do not have to endure the pain of childbirth, but they are also physically strong, generally have higher IQs than men, and are more talented in martial arts. Therefore, in the imperial court, whether they are civil or military officials, they are all women.
After the female protagonist transmigrated, she used her special forces skills to find out the truth. It turned out that the original owner's father was also favored back then, but his family background was low and he did not have a strong backing. Therefore, he was framed by the empress's new favorite, who is now the noble prince, on New Year's Eve for having an affair with the princess of Ling.
The Princess of Ling is the Empress's cousin, but she is a good-for-nothing playboy who spends her days gambling and chasing dogs.
Unexpectedly, she was drugged and sent directly to the emperor's bed while attending a royal family banquet at the palace on New Year's Eve.
The matter was not made public, as it concerned the royal family's reputation, so it was handled privately.
After returning home, Princess Ling fell ill and died in less than a month. Originally, the Imperial Attendant was also going to die from the illness, but he was diagnosed with being two months pregnant.
Judging by the timeline, it's clear this wasn't the first time. At that time, the Empress only had one daughter, the Crown Princess, so she couldn't abandon this child. Therefore, she had the Imperial Attendant give birth to the child. However, it was still a problem, and the Imperial Attendant died from postpartum hemorrhage after giving birth.
Later, the empress also began to suspect that the original owner was not her child. What if the two had been having an affair before? So she simply ignored her, which would also make her realize her true identity and prevent her from having any improper thoughts.
So the original owner became nobody. But as she grew up, her face became more and more like the empress, more like her than her two daughters and several sons. Moreover, she seemed quite intelligent, which made the noble prince a little uneasy.
He worried that if she appeared before the Empress, it would stir up the Empress's maternal instincts, and she might then use this opportunity to get the Empress to thoroughly investigate what happened back then, since the Empress's favor towards him had diminished as she had grown older.
His daughter was ambitious but lacked the talent to seize power; she wanted to take the throne but didn't have the necessary skills, so it was her father who helped her plan.
So they prepared to nip this threat in the bud, and they were successful. But unexpectedly, they ended up being transported to a special forces soldier from the future.
Now things have really gotten complicated. What was once just a formidable foe has become a deadly demon. After the female lead arrived, she preemptively crippled the Third Princess before the other party could make another move, rendering her unable to walk and confined to her bed. In retaliation, she even managed to get her own maidservant into the Noble Prince's bed.
This maid was originally a helper sent to the palace by the nobleman's family. Not long after she was assigned to the original owner's side, they began to harm her.
The female protagonist originally thought she could get rid of the father and daughter directly, or at least exonerate the original owner's father. Unexpectedly, this time the empress was not as decisive as before. She only killed the maid and some servants who knew about it, and then wanted to settle the matter by confining the noble prince for three months on the grounds that he had offended her.
She even bestowed the title of Prince Anshun upon the Third Princess. Just from the title, one can tell what the old mother wished for. Looking at the original owner of this body, she was never remembered until her death. She couldn't believe that the Emperor would hide the fact that a princess had fallen into the water from her. This shows the difference between love and indifference.
While feeling sorry for the original owner's father and daughter, the female protagonist also realized that this mother was unreliable and that it was hopeless to ask her to help overturn the case and seek justice for her. Since that was the case, she had no choice but to take action herself.
This time, she didn't play any roundabout games; she went straight for the kill, using homemade weapons and poison refined with modern knowledge to kill the nobleman and his daughter. She even took advantage of the Empress's grief over the two of them to administer a slow-acting poison.
Soon after, the Empress fell ill and was bedridden. The imperial physicians could only diagnose that she had damaged her heart meridian due to great grief and advised her to rest and recuperate. Since she would certainly not be able to attend to state affairs, the Crown Princess began to oversee the country.
The Crown Princess and the Emperor had no grudges against the original owner, so the female lead didn't plan to take action against them. She just wanted to become a carefree prince in the future.
But her inaction doesn't mean others won't. The noble princess's mother, General Weiwu, actually believes that her son and granddaughter were harmed by the emperor and his daughter, based on the fact that the empress had recently intended to hand over the military power in her hands to the third princess.
The third princess is not as good at planning as the crown princess. She is a bit ambitious but lacks talent. However, she is very talented in martial arts, especially military affairs. So, we thought of sending her to the military camp to gain experience and planned to place her in the Jingji Camp.
The Jingji Camp has always been under the Empress's control, which must have aroused the suspicion of the Emperor and his daughter, so they took the initiative to strike first.
Of course, the main reason was that General Wei Wu thought the same way. He had already started contacting his close colleagues to help his granddaughter, but he never expected that his son and granddaughter would die so suddenly.
Who could so easily kill the prince and princess in the palace? It's obvious without even thinking.
In addition, the Empress also seemed to be poisoned, so he tried to sow discord in front of her by saying his own guesses and pointing out the abnormalities of the Emperor and his daughter.
No emperor is without suspicion, so it's easy to imagine that these words must have stung the Empress. However, she knew she couldn't easily harm the Crown Princess, otherwise, given her current health, if anything happened to the Crown Princess, the throne might very well fall into someone else's hands.
So even though he felt uncomfortable, he didn't take any action. He secretly wrote a will, thinking that if he died, he would have Huang Zhengjun buried with him, which would be a way of taking revenge on the father and daughter.
But if she doesn't take action, General Wei Wu can't either. He's eager to avenge his son and granddaughter, and he's also afraid that the Crown Princess will deal with their family after she ascends the throne, since they've clashed with each other quite a bit in the past.
So they decided to strike first, allied with friendly military generals, and won over an ambitious woman from the imperial clan, promising to help her ascend to the throne if things went well.
One day, a member of the royal family entered the palace under the pretense of visiting the Empress. Together with the Empress, they launched a coordinated attack, catching the Crown Princess and the Emperor off guard. They never expected that someone would rebel so suddenly. The palace guards were no match for them, and the two were killed right in front of the Empress.
These people are quite interesting. Even after they've already forced the empress to abdicate, they still want to legitimize it by forcing her to adopt a member of the imperial family and write an abdication edict.
The Empress, of course, refused. She hated General Wei Wu's presumptuous actions. Even if he was using the pretext of avenging the noble prince and his daughter, it could not conceal his true purpose: to gain merit by supporting the emperor and to use the emperor to command the princes. Dream on!
Of course, she also hated the royal women who wanted to seize her throne. Even if they were from the same clan, they were from a collateral branch and not her own children. How could she possibly agree to that?
At this moment, the female protagonist just happened to jump out and, with her new weapons and superb martial arts, used a sneak attack to kill the people surrounding the Empress's palace, and then dealt with the mighty general and the royal woman.
The Empress was overjoyed to see her second daughter, who had suddenly appeared and looked seven or eight parts like her. She no longer cared about why her daughter had kept her secret. As long as she was her own child, it was better than letting an outsider have her.
The reason the Empress mentioned sending the Third Princess to the capital camp was not because she intended to hand over all military power and the throne to her, but because she wanted her to have someone to rely on in the future, to be a princess with real power, so that even if the Crown Princess succeeded to the throne, she would not be easily harmed.
They never imagined that having military power in the hands of the sisters posed such a great threat to the Crown Princess; it just hadn't come to that point yet, which is why it hadn't erupted yet.
At this point, the female protagonist certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity. The throne was practically handed to her; it would be a shame not to take it. As the saying goes, "If Heaven gives something and you don't take it, you'll suffer the consequences."
Although she hasn't had time to develop her own power, the Empress now only has her as her daughter, and she can't just hand over the throne to an outsider.
So after rescuing the empress, he naturally ascended to the throne.
It's easy to ascend the throne, but difficult to be an emperor. She had no power, no backing, and her maternal family was almost extinct. Of course, the ministers in power wouldn't obediently follow her orders.
Not only did they not help, they also caused a lot of trouble. The Empress was already lying in bed, getting weaker and weaker, and couldn't help at all. She could only rely on herself.
Fortunately, as a special forces soldier, I learned a lot of skills and had a broad perspective. Although I didn't learn how to be an emperor, I did learn how to manage subordinates. So, although I stumbled at first, I quickly got the hang of it.
As the female lead, she quickly built her own team and even seized military power from the empress before her death.
It was only then that the female protagonist began to exert her strength, using modern knowledge to govern the army, develop advanced weapons, find high-yield grain varieties, develop agriculture and sericulture, build water conservancy projects, re-promote capable ministers and generals, and replace, kill, or squeeze out the older generation of ministers. Unexpectedly, Fengming Kingdom became better and better.
After that, they began to conquer all sides, using war to sustain war and eventually taking down several neighboring countries.
Later, they built ocean-going ships and sent merchant fleets across the ocean to the other side. After her husband and concubine had daughters and sons, she raised them with great care, and even her sons were no longer used as tools for marriage alliances.
They learned whatever they were talented in, and as the trade routes opened up by the caravans matured, they released their daughters and sons.
Tell them that if they have ambition and ability, they should go out and use it. They can conquer any territory they want, and all the territory they conquer will be theirs.
She can declare herself queen, and that will be her country. She can also become a vassal of Fengming Kingdom, under its protection, as long as she pays annual tribute. She can also return to inherit the throne, but that depends on who governs the territory better. Whoever governs it well will have the throne.
Now everyone's stopped worrying about their own little plot of land and went out to conquer the world. Some families conquered their own territories, governed them well, and thought they might as well just be emperors there. Why bother coming back?
Some were reluctant to leave their homeland, and after conquering it and governing it well, they returned. The female lead kept her word and passed the throne to the one with the largest territory and the best governance, then became the retired emperor and went off to enjoy herself with a few men.
Since other countries were also her descendants, she could be considered to have unified the world. The female protagonist, this enlightened emperor, became one of the most famous rulers of a prosperous era in history.
