[Main quest completed——Rating: A]
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The mission rewards have been issued. The achievement rewards have been issued. Please check them carefully. The next mission will start in 15 minutes. The countdown begins.]
It’s still the familiar sea of stars, the familiar light screen, and a stupid system with a new shell.
This time, the appearance caught Xu Zhujin's attention:
I saw the system turned into a golden dragon...
Uh, earth dragon!
"Since you want to turn into a dragon, why don't you choose a prettier color? It's so tacky. At first glance, I thought it was a spirit earthworm."
"Tsk, free skin, random color, random shape, what can I do."
N1 circled around Xu Jinzhu, then coiled up in front of her dejectedly, looking more like a fresh thing.
The two of them were used to bickering and didn't really care about what rewards they got this time.
For Xu Jinzhu today, after four generations, the vision, judgment, mind, knowledge and those complex skills she possesses are her most valuable assets.
External forces are useful, but inner talents will never abandon you.
Of course, all of the above is just to show off in front of the system. The real reason is that she doesn't want to use all these resources on this task.
If there is any room for movement, she will definitely kick the emperor aside and act like she is the queen, shining with confidence.
What a pity.
"What on earth did my predecessors do with the system that caused your Transmigration Department to formulate such detailed management regulations?"
"I don't know, but when I was interning at the Time Travel Department, I heard my senior talking about the Fourth Calamity and some evil and funny guy."
"Alas...he's retired from the front lines. I heard he was there when the Time Travel Division was first established. He's a veteran. But due to bad luck, he led three newcomers. The core processor exploded thirty times, and later he was infected with a virus. I heard that the main system formatted him and still has sequelae. You can't mention the host, bugs, etc. in front of him. He goes crazy if you mention them. So he can only do the job of training us new commanders."
"Speaking of which, among the host races selected by the system, the most regulations are directed at the human race."
Xu Jinzhu looked at the bewildered system. For some reason, she suddenly felt a sense of apology and guilt towards the senior mentioned by N1.
Was this something that was messed up? It was definitely messed up!!!
"Oh, it's getting late, let's go to the next world quickly~"
"Ah? Oh, okay, okay, let's go to Wuhu~"
In the vast sea of stars, everyone turned into white light and rushed into a small star.
………
Dingtao State, Dingtao Palace.
The Zhao sisters, who are becoming more and more beautiful, live here, and today they are also practicing singing and dancing diligently.
Zhao Feiyan's delicate jade feet stepped on fifteen drum surfaces arranged in a winding pattern from large to small. She stretched her slender limbs to the melodious sound of the piano, like a willow swaying in the wind, or a flying phoenix and a flying swallow.
Someone who has become Hede maintains her low-key style, quietly hiding behind the curtain, casually strumming the phoenix harp in her hand, seemingly hardworking but actually slacking off.
Zheng——
Her hand playing the piano paused, only because the beauty on the drum suddenly stopped. The beauty who had always been innocent and ignorant, and had no idea what sorrow was, actually held her cheeks with a hint of melancholy in her eyes.
"Sister, are you still thinking about Prince Gong?"
Zhao Feiyan didn't say anything, but covered her face and cried, her expression was beyond words.
"Before, because you didn't avoid Prince Gong and talked to him, the Queen Mother was furious and even had you thrown into the torture chamber. Haven't you given up yet?"
"Hede, you won't understand. I know I can't resist, and I know I'm already Feiyan, not his Yizhu. But, my heart... I can't control my heart, do you understand?"
Zhao Feiyan has been convincing herself these days that first love is always beautiful. If this young love is accompanied by some obstacles and separations, then it will not be the most perfect love in the world.
Prince Gong naturally became her perfect lover.
"But sister, we are going to Princess Yang'a's residence tomorrow. You should understand what will happen then."
Feiyan nodded, tears still welling in her eyes. "I understand. We sisters are where we are today thanks to the Queen Mother's grace. Such kindness must be repaid. Moreover, if I really insist on having my own way, I'm afraid you will be implicated."
After hearing her words, Zhao Hede nodded with satisfaction.
She knew that her sister was not actually a strong woman, especially the days when she was naked due to the misfortunes she encountered in her childhood, which left a deep shadow on Zhao Feiyan.
Her heart had long been torn into a big hole by the dark memories of her childhood, which needed constant love to fill.
Zhao Feiyan, her elder sister, is a flower that will die without love, but in other words, as long as someone is willing to give her love, even if it is false, she will indulge in it and cannot extricate herself.
Therefore, she was destined not to flourish in the Weiyang Palace for long. After all, if the emperor grew tired of a woman, he would not even tolerate the slightest deception. In her previous life, if it weren't for Liu Kang's deathbed entrustment and Hede's constant mediation, Feiyan would have suffered the same fate as Empress Xu, perhaps even a thousand times more tragically.
So in this life, she is willing to help her sister and not let her step into that bloody devil's den again.
"Sister, if you really love Prince Gong, there is a way."
Zhao Hede made sure that no one was around, so she quietly pulled her aside and whispered, "I know that Prince Gong and my sister have agreed to elope tomorrow."
Zhao Feiyan was startled and hurried to check on her sister. Seeing that she was still as calm as ever, she suppressed her uneasiness and asked, "I've never mentioned this to anyone. How did you know?"
"Not only do I know it, but the Queen Mother also knows it, so she will send you and me out of the city early tomorrow."
Zhao Hede gently took her sister's hands and said, "But don't worry. I've already informed my brother and asked him to find a way to pass the message to Prince Gong. Tomorrow, when we leave the city, a group of people will disguise themselves as bandits and hijack the carriage. Then you can follow Prince Gong."
Zhao Feiyan never expected her sister to do so much for her, even going so far as to rebel against the Queen Mother Dingtao, whom they had always deeply feared. She was deeply moved and shook her head repeatedly:
"No, no, if I run away with Prince Gong like this, the Queen Mother will definitely hold you and my brother accountable."
"No, sister. Why did the Queen Mother spend more than ten years training us sisters?"
Looking at Zhao Feiyan's confused eyes, Zhao Hede felt helpless.
This was exactly why she was unwilling to let Zhao Feiyan enter the palace. Although Empress Dowager Dingtao sent people to teach them talents and how to win over men, she deliberately blinded their eyes and prevented them from having enough vision.
Especially Zhao Feiyan. No matter what kind of woman she was in history, the one in front of her was indeed a simple, beautiful and romantic one...
And a stupid and ignorant woman.
