Nineteen years ago, when Meng Wan was about to give birth, a wandering sorcerer suddenly appeared outside the mansion and said that her pregnancy was blessed.
If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad. People in this era generally held these wandering sorcerers in some reverence, and the couple were quite pleased. They had originally planned to give him more money, but the man refused, and then changed the subject—
"However, this child is destined to die young and is afflicted by misfortune. He needs to be carefully dealt with in order to ensure that his good fortune continues and that he can achieve great things."
Although the couple was somewhat angry about this obviously deceptive tactic, they didn't intend to anger the wandering sorcerer. They wanted to give him more money to let the matter drop, but he refused to accept any of it, only giving them earnest advice.
"If you are a woman, then dress as a man and wait for the soul from another world to arrive eighteen years later, and then this matter will be settled."
Because of his unusually firm attitude, and because of some events that happened later, the couple worked together to accomplish this, and they continued to raise Li Yunqing as a son.
The age of eighteen was their most worrying time. When they heard that Li Yunqing had been attacked and was critically ill at the border, they knew that the wandering sorcerer's prophecy had come true, and the one who woke up later might not be their daughter.
Yun Qing hadn't expected there to be such a layer to it. She had already accepted the fact that she had time-traveled, so this mysterious thing didn't seem like a big deal at the moment.
In the history she learned, Li Yunqing did not dodge the arrow and later died. His name was lost in the long river of history, and no trace of him could be found after that.
Looking at the couple, all her tension had vanished, replaced by a complex mix of emotions: "Then, won't you blame me?"
Her arrival here means they will never see their daughter again.
“How could we blame you?” The father sighed deeply. “We should be grateful for this opportunity, which allows our daughter to live in another world, instead of lamenting that we will never see her again.”
Meng Wan added at the end: "Our daughter should have already arrived in the world you are in. It is a blessing that she survived. We have no other desires."
Parents love deeply and plan far ahead for their children. This matter has been planned for eighteen years. Although they were disappointed when they learned the result, they were more relieved that Li Yunqing was able to survive, rather than being saddened that their daughter was replaced.
Yunqing couldn't remember the last time she had felt her parents' love. At this moment, she was deeply moved by this sincere emotion. She whispered, "That was a wonderful era. Men and women had equal status, and women could also achieve great things. If your daughter were there, she would definitely be living a good life."
After hearing these words, Yun Qing finally felt relieved.
She was always worried that she was taking up someone else's life; if it was all predetermined, then things would be much easier to talk about.
She has Li Yunqing's memories, so Li Yunqing should also have her memories. The top scholar is very talented and can live well no matter where he is placed.
"Good, good boy."
This worry had been planted since their daughter was born. The couple had been waiting for the results for far too long, and now that it was finally confirmed, their eyes welled up with tears.
“Young lady, although you are not our child, since you are here, please make yourself at home. From now on, you don’t need to feel guilty. Just treat us as your parents.”
Meng Wan stopped crying; after all, she was a woman who had been on the battlefield, and she was resolute and strong.
She stepped forward and hugged Yun Qing: "I haven't had a chance to ask yet, what's your name?"
Yun Qing smiled: "My name is also Yun Qing."
When Yunqing first learned about this history, she just thought it was such a coincidence that she shared the same name as a historical figure, and even became a top scholar. She didn't pay much attention to it afterward. Little did she know that fate would play tricks on her, and she would eventually become this historical figure herself.
"fine."
Meng Wan released her and said, "The situation in the capital is unclear right now. If you insist on assisting the young emperor, we have no objection. You can take whatever you want from home, as long as you don't harm the innocent."
Li Jia has always been a loyal subject, or more accurately, he takes it upon himself to protect the people of the world and has no personal desires. Therefore, as long as these forces are used in the right way, the couple will not have any objections.
Moreover, based on what had happened before, they had realized that Yun Qing was no ordinary girl. She was not someone to be underestimated. If she wanted to make a name for herself, they were willing to lend her a hand.
Perhaps in that case, Dae-hee might experience some unexpected twists and turns.
Yun Qing understood their good intentions and nodded in agreement: "Yes, I know."
"Alright, let Yunqing go back and rest. You're tired too, and you still have to watch the soldiers' martial arts demonstration tomorrow."
Li's father had almost composed himself. He held Meng Wan's shoulder and looked up at Yun Qing. This girl's eyes were as firm as their daughter's. It seemed that she would become a person of great things in the future. He nodded slightly: "Do not get too close to the young emperor. When he grows up, you must know when to back down."
This is what concern is. Historically, very few powerful ministers have had good endings. If they leave home and already hold military power, and are too prominent in the court, they will inevitably attract criticism. Over time, who knows if the young emperor will become jealous?
"Thank you, Father and Mother."
Yunqing called out for herself. Her parents had treated her well, and she knew she had to repay them. Since Yunqing wasn't here, she would definitely help take care of them.
"No need to thank me." Meng Wan smiled. "It's getting late, go back and rest. We can talk again tomorrow."
"Um."
Although the conversation was somewhat mind-blowing, it also put aside the worries in her heart. On her way back, Yun Qing felt lighter than ever before. Turning into the corridor, she found that the light in the little tyrant's room was still on and the door was not closed properly.
She knocked gently on the door: "Qi An, are you still awake?"
In the room separated by a screen, Xie Rang emerged from behind, dressed only in a plain white undergarment. The young boy stood tall and straight, having grown taller since the beginning of summer, and no longer looked as thin as when they first met.
He looked at Yun Qing: "I want to wait for the Grand Tutor to return."
[This child is quite clingy, but I can't spoil him like this after we return to the palace. He is, after all, an emperor; how can I raise him to be weak?]
Yun Qing: "My room is not far away. There can be no assassins in the manor. Qi An doesn't need to worry."
They encountered quite a few assassins on their journey, and Yun Qing was almost injured. After that, Xie Rang became suspicious and easily frightened, like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. Yun Qing felt that this was not good for his mental state and that she needed to find a way to correct it.
