Kill the sadistic male protagonist and become the emperor

"Princess?" Ren Baozhi was a little uncertain.

"It seems he is awake now."

"This is where?"

"Taixing Mountain."

Ren Baozhi had a terrible headache and tried hard to recall why she came to Taixing Mountain.

Drinking, writing poetry, arguing...

The last scene she remembered was the princess forcing her to drink.

Why? Why?

Suddenly, her pupils constricted and her heart beat wildly.

Pregnancy holds a branch!

She revealed her real name in front of the princess!

What happened next? What else did you say?

I can’t remember! I can’t remember at all!

The system reminded: [Sister, you almost got caught.]

Ren Baozhi asked quickly: "Did I say anything else?"

You said you died once.

"It's over, it's over. Drinking has ruined everything!"

"It seems like you remembered something?" Li Qixi's voice came with the wind, with a hint of autumn coolness.

At some point, Princess Qianqiu locked onto Ren Baozhi like a female eagle, observing her every expression through the moonlight with a gaze as sharp as a needle.

"Yes, that's right." Ren Baozhi looked directly into Princess Qianqiu's eyes without dodging or avoiding them, smiling brightly, "Thank you, Princess Qianqiu, for taking me away with you, otherwise..."

Princess Qianqiu interrupted her directly: "Don't play tricks on me."

She uttered three words playfully: "Pregnancy - hold - branch -"

Ren Baozhi's breathing became rapid at this moment, but she controlled it well. She asked in confusion, "Is the princess calling me?"

"Is there a third person here?" Princess Qianqiu seemed to be tired of sitting. She supported herself on the stone with one hand and jumped down. Like a cat catching a mouse, she slowly walked towards her prey.

"Then Princess, please don't get my name wrong," Ren Baozhi also imitated Princess Qianqiu's tone, enunciating each word with exceptional clarity, "My name is Chen Baozhi..."

"Tell me, who are you?"

A shadow was cast in front of Ren Baozhi. Princess Qianqiu was standing in front of her, staring down at her condescendingly.

"Princess, what's wrong with you today?" Ren Baozhi's gaze never left Princess Qianqiu. At this moment, avoiding her gaze looked more like fleeing. "I am Chen Baozhi, the legitimate daughter of Chen Zhongcheng."

Princess Qianqiu's body shook, and she suddenly stretched out her hand to strangle Ren Baozhi's throat, but Ren Baozhi dodged it by turning his head.

She missed the first strike and attacked again, the palm wind bringing up a rapid whistling sound.

Even though he was covered in wounds, Ren Baozhi was still able to swiftly roll to the side, support himself with his hands, and use the force to stand up while dodging the attack again.

Princess Qianqiu's eyes were filled with even more amusement, her blood seemed to boil with excitement, she attacked continuously, her offensive became more and more fierce, and each punch was accompanied by a strong wind.

Ren Baozhi could barely dodge the first few moves, but as Princess Qianqiu's attacks became more and more fierce, she was defeated step by step.

Finally, under a sweeping kick from Princess Qianqiu, he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

She turned over and lay on the ground, her chest heaving like a dried-up fish, gasping for breath.

Suddenly, there was a person on the right side. Ren Baozhi turned around and saw Princess Qianqiu also lying on the ground, but her breathing was much steadier than hers.

Princess Qianqiu also turned to look at her: "You are quite skilled."

"Not even half as good as the princess."

The two looked at each other in silence under the moonlight.

They stared at each other like this for a long time, until the night grew darker and colder, and until the moonlight grew softer.

Finally, Ren Baozhi looked into Princess Qianqiu's eyes and couldn't help laughing.

As if they were under some kind of spell, the two of them laughed out loud at the same time. Their clear laughter was like a clear spring pouring down from the top of the mountain.

Then it echoed in the night sky, and the night sky turned into the surface of a lake, with ripples spreading out in circles.

Ren Baozhi was the first to look away and looked at the moon: "I lost."

She added, "I wonder why the princess is so interested in me?"

Princess Qianqiu put her hands behind her head and looked at the moon: "Because of The Biography of Ban Zhao."

"All ears."

"Why do you like "The Biography of Ban Zhao"? "Princess Qianqiu asked instead of answering.

"I simply want to read the woman's story."

"I've been to Wanjuanzhai many times, and women are the only ones who buy books. You're the first woman to buy 'The Biography of Ban Zhao,'" Princess Qianqiu looked at Ren Baozhi intently.

Ren Baozhi also put his hands on the pillow, a low laugh escaped from his throat, and looked back at Princess Qianqiu: "How does this round-necked robe feel to you?"

"It's much more comfortable than yours."

"I guess the princess's outfit isn't just for comfort."

Princess Qianqiu's thoughts were suddenly drawn far away by Ren Baozhi's words.

A Niang went from being the queen to the empress of heaven, and from the harem to the front court. She witnessed every hardship she went through.

Even if A Niang has all kinds of political talents, she cannot match A Ye's words. Even if she has thundering methods, she cannot match the unity of the male ministers of the previous dynasty.

No one could have imagined that on the eve of A Niang being named "Queen of Heaven", Aye actually conspired with the prime ministers to depose the queen.

Even though A Niang was devoted to the people, she ultimately took away the power of Aye and the group of male ministers.

Fortunately, all the palace maids in the harem were bribed by A Niang and had become her eyes and ears over the years. This allowed A Niang to know in time that Li Yaozu had ordered people to draft the edict to depose the empress.

If A Niang had failed to arrive in time, once the edict was drafted and then reviewed and approved by the prime minister, all of A Niang's years of hard work would have been in vain.

In addition, A'niang had helped Li Yaozu solve his problems for many years, and Li Yaozu did have some affection for A'niang. What's more, A'niang had been immersed in the palace for many years and had trained some minor officials in the front court, which prevented the queen from being deposed in time.

Although A Niang later took advantage of Li Yaozu's slight sense of guilt and made him the "Queen of Heaven" and performed the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Hua, the power of life and death still depended on Li Yaozu's decision.

Now that the emperor is seriously ill, if the person sitting in A Niang's position is the current emperor's son, the ministers will definitely be happy to see it.

But the person sitting in this position was A Niang.

Even though A Niang's talent was far superior to that of the emperor, she was not a man, and the male ministers could not accept a woman giving orders over their heads.

What stops A Niang is not her talent, but her gender.

If all the ministers in the court were women, it would be Li Yaozu who should abdicate now!

She wanted to find a few women with decent qualifications for A Niang, but after searching the entire Chang'an City, Cang Ying could only find twenty women who could be of use to her.

Noble ladies from wealthy families were bound by the family's etiquette. Even if they were intelligent, they were overwhelmed by filial piety and had to marry early to serve their husbands and parents-in-law.

Poor women did not even have the qualifications to receive education, and they spent every day washing clothes and cooking around their one-third acre of land.

Among these twenty people, only three have any understanding of politics.

She had lived in the palace for so long that she had no idea that the thoughts of women outside the palace had become so impoverished.

Since Wu Zhou had set many rules for women, she and Shangguan imitated men's words, deeds and clothing. Only in this way could they understand the world of Wu Zhou as quickly as possible.

During this period, she met Ren Baozhi.

Seeing that Princess Qianqiu had been silent for a long time, Ren Baozhi chose to break the silence: "It's better to be a princess. You can do whatever you want and wear whatever you want."

Princess Qianqiu sneered, "My mother and father are the current Emperors. The power I fought for myself has become what you call arbitrariness."

Ren Baozhi was speechless for a moment.

Yes, she always thought that those in high positions enjoyed more power, but she never thought that the pressure they endured was not something ordinary people could bear.

Unless you become the ruler of a country above everyone else, there is no freedom to speak of.

"I've answered most of your questions. Now it's your turn," Li Qixi said slowly, staring at Ren Baozhi's profile. "Have you ever died?"
