Who does he look like?
Lu Shiyan wasn't particularly curious about this, so it was Jiang Li who asked the question.
Fu Ying's expression was so shocked that Jiang Li was genuinely curious to know the reason.
Fu Ying closed her eyes and began to try to recall what had happened back then.
Then...
There was also a hint of sympathy in her gaze as she looked at Lu Shiyan.
This person is indeed despicable...
To put it bluntly, it's terrible...
They're even worse off than I am.
Tsk tsk.
Her fate was predicted by the imperial advisor, who was said to be able to read the will of Heaven.
Now that her fate had been calculated, it was no longer a secret, and information about her destiny quickly spread among the nobility.
That's why so many people flocked to him.
She had ridiculously thought that her beauty was the reason for this outcome.
Of course, this imperial advisor also made many contributions to the country. He simply calculated her destiny and predicted that her existence would bring prosperity to the country and that whoever possessed her would gain the world.
In fact, she enjoyed a rather proud period because of this.
Even when she didn't know those people's motives, wasn't her vanity still greatly satisfied?
Everything...
There are gains and losses in everything.
However, the previous king was extremely tyrannical, causing widespread suffering among the people, and it seemed that their dynasty was nearing its end...
The new emperor, unwilling to accept the fall of his country and the loss of his family, imprisoned the old emperor and ascended the throne himself.
pity……
Fate is hard to defy...
If Heaven intends for a nation to perish, how can human power possibly resist it?
But a newly enthroned emperor refused to accept his fate, so...
He tried countless methods to bring the dead back to life.
In the end, he didn't even know how he found that method.
He wanted to use the imperial advisor as a sacrifice.
The Imperial Advisor not only did not refuse, but calmly faced his execution.
The Imperial Preceptor's spiritual power was gradually sacrificed away, and he eventually died from exhaustion.
The dog emperor successfully bought himself a few years of peace.
In those years, he was very good at seizing opportunities and implemented benevolent policies.
However, with such severe internal and external troubles, a few years was simply not enough time for him to change much.
That's precisely why...
Myself a few years from now...
He too was killed in the same way.
Although the Imperial Advisor suffered a tragic fate, he died willingly, and it can be said that he made a tremendous contribution to the country and its people...
But in her case...
No matter what, he still owes something.
It is ridiculous to entrust the rise and fall of a nation to an innocent woman.
Seeing that Fu Ying was deep in thought, Jiang Li did not urge her.
Let her reminisce.
This happened thousands of years ago...
It's something I need to think about carefully.
but……
But she didn't know...
This is somehow connected to Ayan.
That's absolutely outrageous.
Just as Jiang Li was lost in thought, Fu Ying had almost finished recalling everything.
“He was the one who started my disaster,” Fu Ying said, pointing at Lu Shiyan.
Lu Shiyan revealed his dissatisfaction, "It wasn't me."
How could he be someone from thousands of years ago?
"Oh, it's that person who looks a lot like you." Fu Ying readily changed her tune.
Even if the man before her was the reincarnation of the Imperial Advisor, he was no longer the Imperial Advisor.
She could still distinguish this clearly.
In truth, the Imperial Advisor was merely fulfilling his duties; there was no deep-seated hatred between him and her.
"What exactly is going on?" Jiang Li asked curiously again.
Fu Ying didn't try to hide anything and slowly recounted what had happened back then. After she finished, she glanced at Lu Shiyan expressionlessly.
Lu Shiyan: "..."
Don't look at him, he thinks that thing could never be him.
Does he seem like such a noble and righteous person?
Mr. Lu felt that he, as a ruthless businessman and bloodsucking capitalist...
They should not be able to do something as sacred as sacrificing themselves.
“No wonder…” Jiang Li rested her chin on her hand, looking at Lu Shiyan with a sigh, “No wonder you have such good luck in this life, it turns out… it’s because of what you did in your past life…”
Although the Grand Preceptor's self-sacrifice did not fundamentally change the state of the nation, it allowed the country to continue and bought the new monarch more time. Similarly...
It also spared more people from suffering.
This is...
Supreme merit.
Lu Shiyan: "..."
I don't really want to discuss this issue.
Seeing that Lu Shiyan had a blank expression and didn't want to receive the information, Jiang Li turned to Fu Ying and asked a very serious question, "I know that your former Grand Tutor was very great, but I have another question I want to ask..."
"You mean... the Grand Preceptor, are you married and have children?" Fu Ying saw through Jiang Li's little thoughts in an instant, came to her senses, and asked with a smile.
Jiang Li's face flushed slightly in an instant.
She glared at Fu Ying with some annoyance, and finally said expressionlessly, "I didn't mean to ask that, but since you've brought it up, I'm willing to listen if you insist on telling me."
Fu Ying couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I think you're just being stubborn."
"Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'm going back..." Jiang Li's tone contained a hidden threat.
Fu Ying: "..."
Okay...
It's not that it's wrong to talk about it.
“Then…” Fu Ying’s eyes sparkled, “Give me the menu, and I’ll tell you after you order.”
"Isn't the menu right here?" Jiang Li looked disgusted. "Get it yourself."
"oh."
There is a wide variety of food here.
Fu Ying had ordered only dishes she had never seen before; she didn't order any of the dishes she had seen before.
If we order again this time...
She ordered all the dishes she had just thought were particularly delicious again, and then ordered all the remaining dishes she hadn't ordered yet.
Anyway, someone will reimburse me...
She ordered without hesitation.
Thinking about how she died in her previous life, and how the Imperial Advisor also bore some responsibility, Fu Ying was even less lenient.
After ordering, Fu Ying turned to Jiang Li and said, "Back then, the Imperial Preceptor was... how should we put it now... uh... well, yes! He was like a flower on a high mountain... only to be admired from afar, not to be looked at up close. Although he was incomparably handsome, causing countless women to flutter their hearts, no one ever dared to blaspheme him, not even to express their feelings to him... as if saying such things would be an offense to him..."
“Oh, I see…” Jiang Li nodded, then continued, “So the reason he can remain single isn’t because he wants to, but because others assume he shouldn’t be involved in worldly affairs?”
“Not exactly…” Fu Ying shook her head. “The Imperial Preceptor and the Holy Maiden are forbidden from marrying for life. If they have such thoughts, a reasonable monarch would let them step down first, and then they can marry as they see fit when a new Imperial Preceptor or Holy Maiden takes over… But a stubborn monarch would execute the Holy Maiden and the Imperial Preceptor… because such an act would be a desecration of the divine office of the Holy Maiden and the Imperial Preceptor…”
Jiang Li: "..."
It's definitely better to live in the modern world.
“However, although the Imperial Preceptor has no ties and has never married or had children…” Fu Ying’s expression became even more gossipy, “I once heard a rumor…”
"What?"
"It is said that the Imperial Preceptor has someone in his heart, someone he has longed for for many years, but..." Fu Ying drew out her words, "...no one has ever seen him."
