Fast Travel: The Hundred-Life Couple

Chapter 48 Koi is a bit weird 03

General Dingguo also had three sons, but no daughters. As soon as Ye Xiaoli moved in with Dongxu, she became the darling of everyone in the mansion.

This is inevitable. After all, she saved their father's life. Ye Xiaoli herself is extremely cute. Who can not love Ye Xiaoli?

Even General Dingguo's three daughters-in-law liked her very much.

Ye Xiaoli had a very comfortable life in General Dingguo's mansion. With the support of General Dingguo, some of the villagers she brought with her opened shops, joined the army, some donated money to become minor officials, some entered the Imperial Hospital, and some went directly to seek refuge with the prince consort.

In short, people are everywhere in Taoyuan Village.

It seems that the countryside is surrounding the city.

Ye Xiaoli amuses his lovely younger brother every day and lives a carefree life. He does not show off his good luck blatantly, but secretly works hard, like a gentle spring breeze, to make everyone in Taoyuan Village successful and invincible.

It happened that General Dingguo's wife went to Wanfo to visit her second brother, Master Miaokong, who was also a genius in his early years but finally chose to become a monk. Ye Xiaoli went with Dongxu.

Miaokong saw Ye Xiaoli, praised her for her intelligence, and wanted to take her as his disciple.

Therefore, Ye Xiaoli took his younger brother and followed Master Miaokong to travel around the country. They traveled around the country for ten years.

That year Ye Xiaoli was seventeen years old, Dongxu was fourteen years old, the heroine was fifteen years old, and the hero was twenty-eight years old.

The current emperor is the same one who should have died of illness ten years ago and passed the throne to the eldest prince. He was cured by the imperial physician from Taoyuan Village.

Although he had lost all his teeth, the emperor's son-in-law Ye Yuanying cleverly made a pair of dentures for him, which were very convenient to use.

The emperor was very pleased and promoted him to the position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Now he is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

The fact that the old emperor is still in power has a great impact on the reborn heroine. She suspects that she has not returned to the original world.

Because in this world, there is no one who betrayed her in her previous life. The eldest prince in this world has only daughters and no sons.

Moreover, the eldest prince was not in good health to begin with. He was in his early forties and had no ability. Otherwise, he would never have allowed the Regent Li Chengjian to monopolize power in his previous life.

The emperor in the previous life had always doted on Li Chengjian and planned to pass the throne to him in the future, but the emperor fell ill and died at an astonishing speed.

At that time, Li Chengjian was fighting at the border, and the other princes were still young. The queen made a prompt decision and let the eldest prince ascend the throne directly.

In order to appease Li Chengjian's party, Li Chengjian was appointed as regent.

Just think about the 30-year-old eldest prince at that time, who appointed the 17-year-old Li Chengjian as regent. You can tell how frustrated the eldest prince was as the emperor.

Sure enough, he died of frustration more than ten years later, and then the third prince who had cheated on Gu Honglian ascended the throne.

In this life, the emperor's only sons were the eldest prince and Li Chengjian. There was originally a third prince, but he died young, and the remaining incompetent little princes were not born.

Therefore, in this life, the emperor had no other princes who could inherit the throne except Li Chengjian (although the eldest prince had a daughter, she was 41 years old and incompetent and useless). Who would have thought that Li Chengjian was so weak that he was inhumane.

Logically speaking, the emperor should be in a state of panic because he doesn't have a son who can inherit the throne. However, ten years ago, the emperor began to "cultivate immortals" under the charm of the new concubine Ni.

Now that I have achieved some success, I often feel like I am floating in the air.

He even saw an immortal master in his dream, who said that he was destined to have a son. Don't ask what happened to that son, because when the time comes, the son will come naturally.

Not long after, his Concubine Ni ascended to heaven on a pitch-black night (via hot air balloon and wirework, and finally went to Taoyuan Village) in front of him, Commander Ye of the Imperial Guards, and Prince Consort Ye Yuanying.

From then on, the emperor believed in the words of the immortal master in his dream without a doubt, so he was not anxious at all.

After Gu Honglian received the memories of this life, she was horrified to find that many things did not match her previous life. General Dingguo was not dead, and her Gu family was not the only one in the military camp.

Her three brothers had suffered injuries of varying degrees thirteen years ago and had no military positions at all, let alone any say in matters of varying degrees.

Moreover, the little tyrant grandson of the Duke of Qi died in the womb in the previous life, and the so-called Concubine Ni was unheard of.

Everything is different.

Next to the non-existence of the Third Prince, what she could not accept the most was that Li Chengjian, who loved her deeply in her previous life, was a complete waste in this life.

What should she do?

After her rebirth, she had no target to vent her hatred, and her future was uncertain.

Because of the Third Prince in her previous life, she didn't dare to trust any man other than Li Chengjian, but Li Chengjian in this life was a waste, a... waste who was expected to inherit the throne.

Looking at the nephews who were taking their first steps in the yard, Gu Honglian's mind raced and her eyes flickered.

If in this life, Li Chengjian loves her as much as in the last life...

Recently, the little tyrant of the Duke of Qi in the capital suddenly fell ill with smallpox. Apart from being isolated, even the imperial physician who had saved General Dingguo was unable to treat him.

But at this time, General Dingguo brought news that there was a little prodigy named Dongxu who had found a way to prevent smallpox after traveling with his sister for ten years and doing a lot of experiments.

Vaccination with cowpox can prevent smallpox.

Although the emperor was obsessed with ascension, the prerequisite for ascension was to accumulate a lot of merit. Since Concubine Ni ascended to heaven, the emperor had thought a lot. He felt that Concubine Ni must have stolen his merit and ascended to heaven many years earlier than him.

Because the policies he issued before that benefited the country and the people were all issued at the suggestion of Concubine Ni, so those merits must have been attributed to Concubine Ni.

After thinking it through, the emperor was briefly annoyed with Concubine Ni for a while, but soon let it go. He decided to settle the score with her after he successfully ascended to heaven in the future.

At the same time, this also shows that accumulating merit is extremely useful.

Therefore, when the emperor heard that someone had developed a prescription to prevent smallpox, he was overjoyed and immediately decided to arrange for people to test it.

After more than a month of testing, he proved that the prescription was genuine. He immediately ordered people to take the lead in this matter and strive to get people across the country vaccinated against cowpox.

"That would definitely earn him a lot of merit, right? After all, all the patients who contracted smallpox were almost dead, and his actions were equivalent to saving the lives of millions of people."

The emperor thought happily.

Then he personally decided to summon the good young man who had contributed merit to him.

"Xiaoli, I don't want to enter the palace, I don't want to see that old immortal, I don't want to recognize my relatives, and I don't want to be separated from Xiaoli!" Dongxu hugged Ye Xiaoli face to face. He was a head taller than Ye Xiaoli, and his head was buried in her neck. His tone sounded very aggrieved.

"You are so disrespectful. Now you call me sister. You won't have the chance to call me that again in the future. People will think I am overstepping my bounds and don't know the difference between high and low." Ye Xiaoli patted him and said.

This kid has never called her sister since he was a child. No matter what she says, it's useless. Ye Xiaoli had given up long ago. It was just a casual remark just now.

"Don't shout now," Dongxu said cryptically, "there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

Ye Xiaoli smiled and shook his head, not quite believing what he said. If he didn't shout when he was young, how could he expect him to shout in the future?

"Oh, by the way, Xiaoxu, do you still have that good luck now? I feel like as I get older, the good luck I had before is gradually leaving me."

Ye Xiaoli frowned slightly.

She is not afraid of not having good luck, but she is a little worried that if she loses her "supernatural powers" and if people around her need help, she will be very painful if she is unable to do anything.

Moreover, she never had too high expectations for being willful. She was worried that in the future, when others came to her for help, she would be unable to do anything and others would resent her in return.

She hated that feeling and the possibility of certain scenes in the future that would chill her heart.

Because if she really discovered that kind of sign, she would not be able to help but take the initiative.

Dongxu didn't look up, still buried in her neck: "I am almost the same as you. When I was a child, I was not as good as you."

"You are not as good as me now!" Ye Xiaoli said proudly.

Dongxu smiled slightly and sighed: "Yeah, I will never be as good as you. Who can be as good as you?"
