Crossing the Passenger Sacrifice

"Based on your own conditions, you should know best whether what I said makes sense or not."

The imperial concubine continued to speak, and Li Huoyue glared at her with annoyance, but she didn't care.

"Including your brothers, all of them."

The imperial concubine chuckled twice again, just as clear and weak as the first time she was heard yesterday.

"Your eldest brother is in the court, your second brother is in business, your third brother..." The imperial concubine paused here and went on to talk about the next person, "Your fourth brother specializes in intelligence gathering, and your fifth brother happens to have a great talent and interest in medicine."

The imperial concubine helped Li Huoyue count the items one by one.

"Oh, and you, you know almost everything, including your martial arts that allow you to walk alone at night. But you are not bound by modern thinking. You kill anyone who stands in your way. You are born with..."

"That's enough." Li Huoyue interrupted the Imperial Concubine. "I don't need you to explain my situation to me. Please pay more attention to yourself, Imperial Concubine. When the Emperor suddenly comes to his senses one day, you may only be able to stay with the big cauldron over there."

The imperial concubine was not afraid of this threat at all. She giggled freely and lively.

More like a mother.

Li Huoyue originally wanted to ask the imperial concubine if he could choose the body himself, but given the current situation, Li Huoyue no longer wanted to say anything more.

She had a feeling that this woman wouldn't care what she asked.

No matter how you ask, you will definitely get back to the current topic in the end.

Due to the prince’s delay, it’s getting late now, and the imperial concubine is barely alive.

It's time to go, the palace gates are almost locked.

"I know your mother is very capable." Even if there was no other topic, the imperial concubine was still able to speak, "But don't rely too much on your mother. Your mother is not some..."

Li Huoyue laughed out loud.

What the imperial concubine wanted to say was interrupted by the sudden laughter.

"What are you laughing at? You...don't believe it?"

"So?" Li Huoyue asked with a smile, "I have lived with my family for so many years, but because of you, a cheap aunt who showed up halfway, I have fallen into doubt about family affection, right?"

Li Huoyue's words were very different from what the imperial concubine expected. The imperial concubine couldn't believe that Li Huoyue would react like this. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of magic potion her cousin had given to this child.

The two were silent for a moment, and Li Huoyue walked out the door without any reluctance.

Behind me, the imperial concubine seemed to be talking to herself:

"I didn't tell a lie..."

Li Huoyue did not stop, as if he did not hear anything.

The palace is strange.

Li Huoyue was walking on the way out of the palace. There were still no palace servants around. She felt like she was walking in another dimension, lonely and without any response.

A normal palace shouldn't be like this, and normal conversations with royal family members shouldn't be like this. Everything is not as it should be.

The imperial concubine ignored Li Huoyue's question and continued, "Why... did you come only now?"

Li Huoyue did not indulge her. He picked up the warm rice porridge at hand, squatted at the place closest to the imperial concubine, and reached out to force her to come in front of him again.

"Eat first." Li Huoyue said, and was about to pour the food into the imperial concubine's mouth.

The imperial concubine experienced Li Huoyue’s “feeding service” once and was deeply impressed.

"Wait... wait!" The imperial concubine struggled slightly with almost all her strength.

Li Huoyue stopped, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, silently asking what was wrong.

The imperial concubine really didn't have much strength to lift the bowl, but she didn't want to be forced to drink either, so she could only let Li Huoyue put the bowl on the ground, and she lay down and drank it bit by bit.

Li Huoyue looked at this scene and thought of his mother again. He wondered where his mother was at the moment and whether she was suffering.

Sighing softly, she sat on the ground, leaning lightly against the cage, rubbing her abdomen, staring blankly at the large cauldron beside her, the sound of the imperial concubine drinking porridge in her ears.

These days, I feel more tired than in a year.

But she couldn't stop. She had a feeling that the hole was getting tighter and tighter. If she didn't do something, the day when she would be thrown into the cauldron would be getting closer and closer.

She sorted out her thoughts.

If you simply want to create an environment that is safe for all travelers, you only need to consider five directions.

Establish organizations, spread false information, cooperate with the powerful, cultivate the abilities of the traversers themselves, and establish intelligence networks.

But these basic operations are too routine, and in today's situation, they seem to be insufficient.

There are already organizations established, and even two of them, but they cannot provide permanent protection.

If they are caught and cannot withstand the torture, they will be in trouble and the rest of the time travelers will have no hope of having a good life.

As for false information, there are two avenues.

One is to spread rumors that the time traveler was sent by God to save the South.

But this approach obviously wouldn't work. Even the miracle of Nanxia River and the "Time Traveler's Guide" couldn't be spread, let alone this rumor that was completely inconsistent with the ancestral teachings of the Southern Kingdom.

The second is to spread some false information about time travel to confuse the public and make it difficult for other royal members who want to capture the time traveler to catch him/her easily.

This one can be retained.

Li Huoyue thought that she would become a patrol officer of the Special Inspection Court in the future, and she would definitely have to catch time travelers. But if she really tried her best to catch them... To be honest, the number of time travelers was not enough. It would be estimated that they would have to be cleaned up within half a year.

If you want to delay time, it is inevitable to spread such false news.
