After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

Zhong Ning raised his head suddenly, stood up, his eyes red:

"so what?"

"Father, you are the Son of Heaven, the father of all people, the patriarch of the entire Dayong, not the head of the royal family!"

"Those dead children, weren't they your people?"

"Can a single word, "a descendant of the royal family," really mean so many lives are wasted?"

"Can a careless mistake be enough to turn a blind eye to life?"

Zhong Ning's tears suddenly flowed out, and she looked at Emperor Yong with a twisted look in her eyes, her voice filled with grief and indignation:

"They are human beings too! They also have parents who love them. If Prince An's Mansion hadn't sent people to abduct them, they should have had their own lives..."

"They are in the prime of their youth and should be the hope for the future of Dayong!"

“But now, it’s all gone…”

"I lost my freedom, my chastity, and even my life..."

"A strong youth makes a strong country. Among these trafficked children, there are not only boys but also girls... They are all the children of our country."

"Father, I would like to ask, if a country cannot even protect its own children, then what is the meaning of its existence?"

"How dare you!" Emperor Yong slammed his palm on the imperial desk and said in a cold voice, "Are you blaming me?"

"I dare not, I just want to give them justice..."

Zhong Ning straightened his body and stared at Emperor Yong stubbornly!

Emperor Yong shifted his gaze unnaturally, his fingers unconsciously clasping the jade seal, which symbolized the emperor's authority and was now emitting a cold light.

After a long while, Emperor Yong issued an order: "Return to your princess's residence and be confined to your room for a month! You are not required to interfere in state affairs!"

Zhong Ning closed his eyes in disappointment, clasped his hands together, and said in a cold voice: "Son, I will take my leave!"

After saying that, Zhong Ning turned around and strode out of the palace.

Before leaving the palace gate, she looked back at the palace building with carved beams and painted pillars, and the symbol of the supreme authority of imperial power!

Suddenly, infinite sadness welled up in my heart!

But soon, it disappeared.

Someone once said, if the law cannot give you justice, then you should use other methods!

Similarly, if Emperor Yong cannot deal with Prince An and give an explanation to the people of the world, then she will have to take action herself!

Anyway, with her current strength, she is about to step into the ninth level. In Dayong, at least in Kyoto, no one can be her opponent!

But, if it can be controlled by law, who would want to use such means...

Zhong Ning felt extremely sad at this moment. The feudal system that she was powerless to resist was like a mountain, pressing her so hard that she couldn't breathe.

When he returned to the mansion, Gu Mingzhe had been waiting there for a long time.

Seeing Zhong Ning returning from the palace exhausted, Gu Mingzhe immediately went to greet him.

With clear eyes and cautious steps, he followed Zhong Ning all the way to the outside of Qionghua Courtyard.

"Your Highness... I really didn't know today..." Gu Mingzhe explained anxiously, panicking and frantic, "I didn't touch them. When I realized that this place was not right, I was already ready to leave... Your Highness..."

Zhong Ning sighed deeply, looking at Gu Mingzhe's careful explanation, he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth and said expressionlessly:

"Mr. Gu, where you want to go and what you want to do is your own business. You don't need to explain to me!"

"Go back! I don't want to see you!"

"Your Highness..." Gu Mingzhe looked hurt and wanted to continue speaking.

Unfortunately, Zhong Ning had already walked directly into the bedroom and closed the door, leaving all worldly troubles outside.

Gu Mingzhe stood outside the door, stunned for a long time, not knowing what to do.

Su Xin felt a little reluctant, but she also knew that Master Gu was indeed at fault. She bowed slightly and gently advised, "Master Gu, please go back!"

Gu Mingzhe shook his head, took a few steps back decisively, stood upright in the middle of the yard, staring at the door of the main room.

He hoped that the person he loved so much would open a gap and welcome him in with a smile.

Unfortunately, no!

He waited from 12:00 to 12:00, but the person inside still couldn't come out.

Even when it was time for dinner, there was no movement inside.

Su Xin knocked on the door twice, but was kicked out both times.

She was so anxious that she didn't know what to do. During the day, His Highness couldn't even have lunch because of the Fangyuan incident, and now he didn't have dinner either because of a Mr. Gu.

She just locked herself in the room and refused to eat or drink. What should I do?

Thinking of this, Su Xin looked in the direction of Gu Mingzhe and couldn't help but feel a trace of resentment. If he hadn't hurt His Highness's heart, why would His Highness be so sad?

She had never seen His Highness lose his composure like this before!

One stayed in the house without eating or drinking, and the other stood in the yard motionless.

Su Xin sighed, what the hell is going on!

In fact, Zhong Ning did not eat nothing. She had space and could take out food whenever she was hungry.

There was also the yacht dinner that he had received from Fang Ping before, which had been kept fresh in the space.

She is in a very bad mood now.

Don't want to see anyone.

It’s like when a person is trapped at a certain point, he just wants to find a cave to hide in and digest these bad emotions alone.

She didn't want others to see that she was on the verge of an emotional breakdown at this moment.

Perhaps it was because of the education I received since childhood, or perhaps it was because I saw with my own eyes those ignored and lonely lives.

I saw on TikTok earlier that a truly strong person must be mentally strong enough to not have any psychological fluctuations no matter what happens.

There is no possibility of internal friction.

So she is not a strong person, she is just an ordinary person.

In this era, I was lucky enough to have a golden finger and stumbled all the way to this position, but I am always worried that my virtue is not worthy of the position.

Therefore, I hope to do more for the people of this era.

It’s a pity that her abilities are limited and she is destined to be unable to resist the tide of this era.

After all, this is not the place for her to be.

After returning to the space, Zhong Ning lay in his small house which was exactly the same as the modern one for the first time.

She took off her brocade gown, removed her gold hairpins and jade pendants, let her hair down, and changed into her little camisole and shorts.

Pretend that she has returned home, back to the country she longs to return to day and night.

There are no princesses and no imperial power here.

There is only an ordinary girl nestling in her own little house, watching TV series and reading novels carefree, and taking a nap when she is tired.

Wake up, cook a small hot pot, and open a bottle of ice cola.

Day after day, year after year.

Just live like this.

.....

Time flies, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhong Ning still didn't leave the room.

Gu Mingzhe still stood firmly in the yard, swaying.

Everyone started to get anxious and didn't know what to do. Su Xin and Lady Ruan knocked on the door again and again, but got no response.

I wanted to break in, but I was afraid of making Zhong Ning angry.

Gu Mingzhe stood there as if he had taken root. No matter how many guards came to persuade him or tried to force him to go back, they were unable to find a way.

When Qi Yu returned from handling a case outside the city, the first thing he did when he entered Qionghua Courtyard was to punch Gu Mingzhe.
