Yonghe didn't dare to look up, not because of external pressure, but because of his inner guilt.

At this moment, all the deliberate forgetfulness and excuses disappeared, and Yonghe was forced to face the truth that she had always refused to admit - it was she who broke her promise to God.

Yonghe was her title, not her name. Her name was Seventeen, or rather, she had no name. Seventeen was just her age order. Before she had a title, the palace maids in the Ye Ting called her that.

Her mother was a palace maid in the Ye Ting.

Although she was the emperor's daughter, Xiao Shiqi could not even get enough to eat, let alone the delicacies from land and sea. She also had to work, and was not much different from a palace maid.

The first time she saw her father, the old man in the yellow robe sitting on the dragon throne was even older than the old eunuch.

The old emperor talked a lot, and Seventeen had never been to school, so she didn't understand most of it. But Seventeen understood the meaning: the Jin Dynasty wanted to form an alliance with the Orkhan tribe in the north and hoped that she would go.

Seventeen agreed. Even though he had never been educated, he knew that he could not refuse the emperor.

Then Seventeen's good days came. A special nanny taught her etiquette and manners, and she was very graceful in sitting, lying down and walking.

Putting on a gorgeous palace dress, the material was as smooth as a second skin, milk and flower petals soaked her body, and her rough hands became delicate and white;

I apply skin-nourishing powder every day, light expensive incense in the house, and my body smells noble, no longer smelling of toilets or sweaty clothes.

With more to learn, Seventeen gradually realized that there is only bird droppings and hail falling from the sky, but no pie will fall from the sky.

The so-called marriage alliance was nothing more than the defeated party offering land, gold, silver, and beauties to beg for peace. It would be more accurate to say "peaceful marriage" rather than "marriage alliance".

The Bolkin Khan she was going to marry was an eagle on the grassland, but he was already 61 years old, which was exactly her age reversed.

Moreover, Bolkin has been seriously ill for a long time and is said to be unable to hold his urine. It may not be long before she will continue to marry his brother and son.

Three cities, most of the national treasury looted in the past six months, countless books and craftsmen were said to be her dowry, but in fact she was also one of the gifts.

They spent half a year waiting for an auspicious day, partly to wrap her gift so it would be presentable.

What they want is a young and beautiful princess, not a palace maid who does rough work.

As the day of the marriage approached, Seventeen knelt on the mat and prayed devoutly, hoping that at least one of Bolkin and the old emperor would die, so that the marriage could be postponed or even abolished.

Seventeen doesn't want to go back to work, but she also doesn't want to marry a sixty-one-year-old man. If she really has to get married, she can choose someone who is not so old.

The god responded to her.

He appeared just like that, just as He is now, small enough to be held in the palm of your hand.

God asked her if she would like to move to another place where there were many high-quality men to choose from, the environment was beautiful, resources were abundant, and she didn't have to worry about danger, as the people there would protect her.

But the conditions are rather difficult and it needs to be rebuilt from scratch, so I asked her if she was willing to go.

If she goes there and hands over what she holds to the people there, He will ensure that she will have a smooth life without illness or disaster.

Of course Seventeen nodded her head in agreement. She was willing to do anything as long as she didn't marry a dying old man.

In this way, Seventeen traveled through time with all her dowry in the middle of her marriage and fell into Tenglong's arms.

Tenglong is more handsome than all the men Shiqi has ever seen in his life. Even when wearing animal skin clothes, he looks more noble than those young men from wealthy families who wear silk and satin.

Both of them fell in love at the first moment.

The conditions were indeed difficult at the beginning. They didn't even know how to use salt, and their only tools were stones and bones. They had to make everything themselves.

At the beginning, Seventeen of course tried her best to teach them, because the conditions were so harsh. Although she was an ancient person, she was not so ancient as to eat raw meat and drink blood.

In order to allow her to impart knowledge, God stuffed all the knowledge into her brain, so that no matter what she needed, it would come out on its own.

Seventeen's life soon became even more luxurious than the princess's. She could use thousand-year-old golden nanmu wood at will, and had gems and jades that were not even seen in the palace at her fingertips.

The footbath used every day is made of a pine tree that is hundreds of years old. When you pour hot water into it, you can smell the refreshing pine scent.

The most skilled craftsmen she taught herself devoted themselves to serving her. Lacquerware, blue inlay, kingfisher feather inlay... whatever she wanted, she had it. Yunjin and Shujin were available to her alone.

Although the god did not enter her dream again, a strong voice in her heart told her that what the animal world needed more than these was how to make tofu, how to brew, how to farm, how to weave, spinning wheels, curved plows, mortise and tenon joints... These were more important than the exquisitely crafted filigree gold hairpins.

But...but...how could a princess of the royal family do such menial tasks? What's the difference between this and a maid cleaning toilets in the palace?

Yonghe resisted all this in her heart. She thought she was an extremely noble princess and refused to deal with these "lowly" things.

Besides, she doesn't need these. There are so many beasts in the animal world, and people won't starve to death if they can't farm.

Yonghe still had a glimmer of hope in her heart. God asked her to teach the people "here" what she knew, and she had already taught them. Although there were no real water wheels and sleds, there were detailed written records and picture albums.

Besides, what would it look like if everyone had the royal belongings?

Tenglong is the "emperor" recognized by Yonghe in her heart. Deep down in her heart, she distinguishes Kunlun from other places. She feels from the bottom of her heart that Kunlun should be divided into high and low ranks from other places.

After Yonghe had this thought, the knowledge in her mind quickly disappeared. She lost her mission and became no longer special.

Yonghe was panicked for a while at first, but as time went by, she remained safe and sound, without any illness or disaster, and even lived to be 100 years old with eternal youth.

God did not break his promise.

But how can a hundred years be enough? Tenglong can live to be 1,400 years old!

Neither she nor Tenglong were willing to give up. They were a perfect couple, so how could they not stay together forever?

But Yonghe is no longer special. She is just an ordinary human being and cannot even benefit from the boost given to her by Tenglong's upgrade through marking.

[Princess Yonghe, have you fulfilled your promise? ]

The straightforward mechanical voice seemed a bit eerie.

Yonghe prostrated himself on the ground, trembling and not daring to speak.

[Tenglong, why do you think your wife only lived to be 100 years old?]

Tenglong's face turned pale, and he pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.

[You have been given a mandate by Heaven, and since you have longevity and prosperity, you will use it as it comes. Have you taken your destiny seriously?]

Every word of the electronically voiced questioning was like a sledgehammer, shaking the souls of everyone present.
