She became a god

On her deathbed, the girl couldn't help but recall her absurd and pitiful life.

Everyone says that the Prime Minister and Su Nanzhi are deeply in love.

Su Nanzhi is my mother. She was an orphan who died during childbirth.

According to my wet nurse, Granny Xu, before she died, she begged my father, Yu Qingzhi, the powerful prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, to treat me well.

She only breathed her last after Yu Qingzhi nodded.

Thanks to her, I also had a good period.

Before I was ten years old, my relatives and friends called me Mingzhu. Everyone in the Great Zhou knew that I, Yu Mingzhu, was the Prime Minister's beloved daughter.

When I was ten years old, a severe drought struck various regions. A celestial master came to the capital and pointed at me, saying, "A calamity star has descended from the heavens, destined to destroy the Great Zhou Dynasty."

No sooner had he finished speaking than I was escorted to the execution ground.

Even though Granny Xu's head was bleeding from kowtowing, Yu Qingzhi remained unmoved.

I have lost my greatest and only refuge.

The Zhou people believed that burning at the stake had the effect of purifying evil spirits.

So I was tied to a pillar, watching the fire rage and listening to the curses and insults directed at me from the crowd below the execution ground.

Just as the flames were about to engulf me, it started to rain.

I didn't die at the stake, but I have to live on in endless insults and humiliation.

It is said that this was the immortal master's instruction before he left: "This calamity star is of lowly fate, having offended Heaven. She has descended to the mortal realm to atone for her sins. Do not pardon her!"

My tendons in my hands and feet were severed, and I had to fight with dogs for food every day.

I had considered suicide, but Granny Xu quietly slipped me a steamed bun, saying, "Miss, I'm getting old. If you leave, who will remember Madam? Who will carry on her legacy?"

My mother, Su Nanzhi, was a renowned gynecologist, and I vowed from a young age to become a doctor and help people in need.

I started studying medical books when I was three years old, and by the age of ten I was already skilled enough to practice medicine in a clinic.

My closest relatives abandoned me, but fortunately I still have medical skills.

My medical skills saved me countless times over the next eight years.

But I couldn't save Granny Xu.

I am a jinx; the Prime Minister's family, who raised me, wants to sever all ties with me.

The people who humiliated me the most were the young masters and ladies of the Prime Minister's mansion.

Granny Xu is incredibly foolish. Not only does she not distance herself from me, she also wants to protect and raise me.

The Prime Minister's residence certainly doesn't need such servants.

So, Granny Xu died, dying on charges of treason the year I came of age.

Since then, no one has celebrated my birthday with me anymore.

I hate!

If I am truly a jinx, then I curse everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty to die a violent death!

Perhaps I really am a jinx; under my three years of daily curses, the Great Zhou Dynasty perished!

A group of bizarre creatures took over the Great Zhou Dynasty, but I, the jinx, survived by sheer luck and eventually encountered the Immortal Master Murong.

He doesn't remember me.

He forgot me, forgot the person whose life was worse than death because of a single sentence he said.

He was a monk, I was a beggar; our statuses were worlds apart.

But I'm not afraid of him!

I just want to know the answer!

I want to tell Granny Xu that I am not a jinx, and you are not a traitor!

Granny Xu, I've come to find you.

.........

Unexpectedly, I was unable to find Granny Xu.

A fairy-like woman saved me, draped a cloak over my shoulders, and listened quietly to my sobs for half the night.

I heard her say, "Do you want revenge?"

How could I not want revenge?

Can the woman before me help me get revenge?

She saved my life, but I have no way to repay her.

Why are you still helping me?

I told her my thoughts with some doubt.

Her smile was brighter than moonlight, almost blinding me.

“You have never been a jinx, but Murong Yan is not wrong to say that you destroyed the Great Zhou.”

I lowered my head. "Grandma, are you pitying me?"

“Pity? If you had no will to resist yet your fate was so tragic, I might pity you, but I would despise you even more. But you have the courage to survive even though you are in the mire, and after the fall of your country, you came here alone just to seek the truth. I admire you.”

I'm not stupid. Is it really worth her doing so much for a stranger like me just because I admire her a little?

Seeing that I remained unmoved, her smile deepened.

"As expected of an emperor who should have usurped the throne, he is indeed wise."

I was confused.

Having heard countless insults since childhood, this is the first time someone has praised me for my intelligence and even said that I should be an emperor who overthrows the dynasty.

Are you trying to comfort me?

It's not that I don't want to believe; on the contrary, I wish I had a reputation like a lucky star, so that I wouldn't lose Granny Xu and wouldn't suffer for eight years.

Can…

What good does it do me to comfort you?

I thought about it, but couldn't think of anything for the moment, so I shook my head.

She laughed, "You're the first person who doesn't believe in my fortune-telling."

I was surprised, "Are you a fortune teller too?"

Murong Yan, who called me a jinx, is a fortune teller. I heard he ranked high in the fortune teller competition.

My savior, however, gave a half-smile and said, "Doesn't it look like it?"

With her delicate eyebrows and white teeth, her face as bright as the moon, and her graceful movements, she seemed unlike any ordinary person, more like a fairy from the moon palace descended to earth to save all living beings.

I was stunned when I heard her say, "Ye Qingzhou."

I heard my voice tremble as I asked, "Which three words?"

She smiled gently and looked at me tenderly, "A light boat drifts freely, the fragrance of water lilies lingers, though the fisherman's song is beautiful, let it not be sung too loudly."

She was actually Ye Qingzhou?

Ye Qingzhou, the world's number one fortune teller!

Surprise and joy welled up inside me. "You just said I'm not a jinx."

Ye Qingzhou added, "You are the Emperor Star."

"Then why did Murong Yan call me a jinx?"

"The result of divination is objective, but the interpretation of the hexagram is subjective, mixed with strong personal emotions. A diviner with integrity will try to interpret the hexagram objectively, saying both good and bad. A diviner blinded by greed will only say what is beneficial to himself."

I still don't understand, "There are hardly any cultivators in the Great Zhou territory, so what could possibly make him so greedy? What's the difference between calling me a jinx and calling me an emperor?"

Ye Qingzhou looked at me with a loving gaze; the last person to look at me like that was Granny Xu.

"You're absolutely right, but unfortunately you don't understand politics."

I was unconvinced. "Since you say I am the future emperor, then I will understand politics sooner or later."

Ye Qingzhou praised, "It's excellent that you have this kind of thought."

I asked her a few more questions, which she answered very patiently.

Before I drifted off to sleep, I saw her seemingly writing something, and casually asked, "What are you doing?"

I vaguely heard her reply, "Telling a story."

I was awakened by the aroma of the congee, and I didn't dare to believe it was for me until the food was handed to me.

“Your body is too weak. If you suddenly consume meat, it will be bad for your stomach. I will provide you with some food containing spiritual energy for the next few days. Once your body has recovered, I will feed you the Qi-Nourishing Pill.”

My nose tingled with emotion. "Why are you so good to me?"

I really can't understand it. I can't understand why she's so good to me, just like I can't understand why my fellow countrymen can treat me so badly just because of some vague and abstract language.

As I finished my last bowl of vegetable porridge, I heard her answer: "I just wanted to see if the fake jinx could prove the fake fortune teller wrong."
