The villain and the powerful official secretly read the diary and broke my plot every day

Let Qingyun Kingdom become prosperous and powerful, with peace and tranquility!

The eldest brother's words floated into Jiang Jiang's ears along with the night wind.

Jiang Jiang was in a trance for a moment. Somehow, a fragment suddenly flashed through her mind. It was one of the final fragments of this novel world -

"I, Gu Yanqing, only wish for a peaceful and prosperous Qingyun Kingdom. I only want to fight for fairness for those poor students. What have I done wrong?"

The ending of every novel world is always that the hero and heroine go through untold hardships to defeat the villain.

This world is no exception.

However, Gu Yanqing is not a villain in the traditional sense who does all kinds of evil. He just happens to stand on the opposite side of the male and female protagonists.

Of course, Gu Yanqing is definitely not a good person in the traditional sense. For his own political ambitions, he can use any means to suppress his opponents in officialdom. He has done things such as framing and killing to silence them, without any ambiguity.

But in Gu Yanqing's opinion, everything he did was right!

He has his stance and persistence!

There is no absolute good or evil in this world, and even less in officialdom.

"Brother." Jiang Jiang came back to his senses, looked at his elder brother, and said softly: "I have little education and don't understand the great principles you are talking about, but I have heard many students in the capital these days talking about Prime Minister Gu. Although he is a new favorite of the court, but... he is facing countless aristocratic families. Now he has the support of His Majesty, so he can be bold and presumptuous, but what if one day... His Majesty can't bear the external pressure, or His Majesty changes his mind and regrets it? I have read the history books in my father's study. In history, how many people who advocated reform and innovation had a good end? Brother, do you have to... follow him? Have you thought about the future..."

Jiang Jiang wanted to say something else, but Jiang Chaosheng beside her just laughed softly.

"Ha, little girl, I didn't expect you to know so much."

Jiang Chaosheng turned around, lowered his head, and looked directly into Jiang Jiang's eyes with his clear, bright eyes. "How long can a person's life be? I would rather die gloriously than live a mediocre life. Of course, if it really comes to a life-or-death situation, I will make arrangements in advance and will not let you and your parents be implicated."

In fact, Jiang Chaosheng has thought about the future and countless different versions. He seems to be simple on the surface, but he is actually a very thoughtful person.

Jiang Jiang met Jiang Chaosheng's gaze and saw the bright light in his eyes. Jiang Jiang was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the eldest brother's eyes were surprisingly bright.

That might be... a reflection of his ideal.

It’s great to have people with ideals.

Jiang Jiang felt a little ashamed. As a modern person, she just wanted to make ends meet and survive. But Jiang Chaosheng's ambition was to serve the people of the world...

"Brother, I understand! Come on!"

Jiang Jiang smiled, stood on tiptoe, patted Jiang Chaosheng's broad shoulders, then turned around and left quickly.

"It's late, go back to bed early."

After leaving these words, Jiang Jiang went back to her room.

The night when the results are announced is destined to be a sleepless night for many people.

Jiang Jiang returned to her room and lit the oil lamp. Her mind was swirling with emotion, and she naturally couldn't fall asleep. Looking down, she saw the new coat she'd changed into. Jiang Jiang's mind flashed back to her father's tears of joy, her mother's gentle smile, and her eldest brother's exceptionally bright eyes...

Everyone is mortal since ancient times. Why don’t you fight with the plot instead of growing old?

Jiang Jiang felt a surge of ambition in his heart for a moment, but it died down the next moment.

No, I'd better just hide for now.

She admitted that she was afraid of death.

Perhaps, we can proceed step by step according to the plot?

Thinking this way, Jiang Jiang directly called up the diary system in her mind. She hadn't written her diary yet, so she could take advantage of this opportunity to sort out her thoughts and think about what to do in the future.

On the fourth day of March, the weather was sunny and there was a light breeze.

Today, the results of the Spring Examination were announced, and my eldest brother actually passed. This was truly beyond my expectations. I had thought that if he had failed, he could have taught in a private school like my father, and later married a sister-in-law as gentle and beautiful as my mother, and our family could have lived a peaceful and ordinary life.

Perhaps, the eldest brother is unwilling to give up, so he can wait for another three years and try again... Perhaps three years later, as he grows older and the court changes, his mind will also change.

This is the future I have imagined. The only thing I haven’t thought of is that my elder brother really won the prize, and... he is still so determined to follow in Gu Yanqing’s footsteps.

Gu Yanqing is not a bad person, I even admire him a little sometimes, but...

Five years to go.

Five years later, Gu Yanqing's empire will collapse, and everything... will be reduced to ashes.

There are still five years left, maybe... there is still a chance to save everything?

Jiang Jiang paused writing this in her diary. She sighed softly, resting her hand on her cheek, staring blankly at the dancing flames before her eyes.

Is there a possibility that Gu Yanqing simply looks down on his elder brother?

Jiang Jiang's eyes lit up for a moment, but soon dimmed again.

With my eldest brother's personality, if he couldn't join Gu Yanqing and had to fight alone in the officialdom... he would probably die faster!

No, this is even worse. I'll just follow Gu Yanqing and enjoy the shade under his big tree. There will be at least five more years of good days!

Jiang Jiang sighed again, and his thoughts turned again——

What if my eldest brother is not allowed to become an official?

He is just a tribute scholar now, and there will be a palace examination on March 8th. Only those who pass the palace examination will become reserve officials.

If I fail the palace examination...

"Even if he fails the palace examination, given my eldest brother's achievements as a Gongshi, Dad will definitely do his best to find him a position."

Jiang Jiang muttered to himself.

Jiang Ping's obsession with fame and officialdom was seen by Jiang Jiang.

After thinking about it, how come... joining Gu Yanqing becomes the best choice?

My brother is a lackey of the villain boss.

[I, who traveled through a book, can only serve the villain for the sake of fame and fortune? 】

Sin ah.

Jiang Jiang regained his spirits, quickly filtered the plot information in his mind, and started writing in his diary again.

At this point, we can only rely on God.

What if, by God's grace, she is on my side?

If five years is not enough, then seven, eight, or even ten years. As long as my eldest brother can become Gu Yanqing's confidant, I can use him to change everything and prolong the time for Gu Yanqing's downfall.

Well, the most important thing right now is to make my eldest brother a big hit in the palace examination and let him be seen by Emperor Jianping and Gu Yanqing.

Unfortunately... I have no idea what the palace examination will contain, but I know who will be the top scorer.

His name is Shen Guiyuan, and he is a very bad guy. On the surface, he is a supporter of the new policy and a supporter of Gu Yanqing, but in fact... he is a traitor planted by those powerful people next to Gu Yanqing.

I have to find an opportunity to expose him in advance.

The road ahead is long…

I am really worried about my brother's future.

…………

The diary is finished and uploaded successfully.

As expected, the overall physical quality was improved.

Jiang Jiang instantly felt his ears and eyes become clearer. Jiang Jiang guessed that this improvement in his overall physical quality might be all-round—

Strength, energy, perception, physical reaction, even vision, hearing, etc.

Anyway, the rewards given by this system are getting better and better. Maybe one day when the system is upgraded, she will be invincible all of a sudden!

and so……

The current predicament isn’t so dire, is it?

As a book-crosser with a cheat, she should also take a long-term view...

future.

It will definitely get better.
