Chapter 231 I am also a soul from another world

Jiang Jiu was shocked after hearing this. It turned out that they all knew that she was a time traveler.

In that case, if she told him that she was also a spirit from another world, wouldn't she not be regarded as an alien by them in the future?

"What a coincidence, me too."

"So, you actually knew long ago that I wasn't Yao Qin, right?"

Now that everything has been confessed, Zhao Zhuoxi decided to go with the flow.

"Yes, you are not Yao Qin, but more like her..."

Jiang Jiu clapped his hands excitedly: "This explains it all. You have always suspected that I am not Yao Qin, but you also think that I look a lot like her, so you take such good care of me and say that you like me."

"Okay, now that we've been honest with each other, I won't resist you anymore. I acknowledge your last crush, but from now on, if you want me to like you, it depends on whether you can be as infatuated as your third brother..."

Zhao Zhuoxi looked at Jiang Jiu deeply, this result was also acceptable.

Whether she remembers the past or not, as long as she is well and alive and well, everything is fine.

Zhao Zhuoxi chuckled and took Jiang Jiu into the Guanyin Temple.

Facing the extremely solemn Guanyin Bodhisattva, Jiang Jiu knelt there with his hands clasped together.

"Merciful Guanyin Bodhisattva, I, Jiang Jiu, pray for the health and safety of my family in modern times, and for my life in ancient times to be smooth. I also pray for good weather and good harvests here, for the people to live and work in peace, and for Emperor Zhao Zhuoxi to create a prosperous era."

Zhao Zhuoxi, like Jiang Jiu, clasped his hands together and knelt in front of the Bodhisattva.

He had only one request.

I wish his most beloved woman Jiang Jiu will live a long life and grow old with him.

After worshipping the Bodhisattva, Jiang Jiu and Zhao Zhuoxi both moved to the backyard. They would play here for a day and go down the mountain the day after tomorrow.

Sure enough, Jiang Jiu, who couldn't sit still, ran to the back mountain.

There was a small river in the back mountain with gurgling water. Without waiting for Jiang Jiu's instructions, Zhao Zhuoxi took out a fishing rod and started fishing there.

Jiang Jiu was actually very curious about the time travelers from the past.

Especially Zhao Zhuoxi's opinion on time travelers.

Seeing Zhao Zhuoxi fishing, Jiang Jiu sat obediently beside him.

"Zhao Zhuoxi, you are the emperor. If I call your name, you won't chop off my head, will you?"

Zhao Zhuoxi glanced at her sideways. It wasn't the first day he called his name, so why was she so scared now?

"The names are given to be called by people. Everyone is equal over there. I allow you to be equal to me here."

Jiang Jiu smiled with satisfaction.

"Our world is very advanced and high-tech. Although we say that everyone is equal, there are actually many inequalities. However, our laws are strict and much better than yours."

Although Zhao Zhuoxi has known Jiang Jiu for many years, he has never heard her talk about modern things.

“Are all couples monogamous there?”

Jiang Jiu nodded heavily: "Yes, this system is the best, monogamy, no concubines, but rich people will raise illegitimate children, illegitimate children and biological children enjoy the same rights, this is not very good, but it is good for most people."

Zhao Zhuoxi nodded: "According to the laws of Daning, only officials above the fifth rank can take concubines, and officials above the third rank can take three or more concubines, which is considered good for the legal wife. We can divorce here, but when divorcing, we need the support of the legal wife's family, otherwise it will not be easy."

Jiang Jiu sighed: "It is not easy for a woman to live in the world, whether in ancient times or modern times."

Jiang Jiu talked about some modern things again, and Zhao Zhuoxi finally understood where her confidence and natural pride came from.

It’s just that the two places are thousands of years apart, so it’s no wonder that Jiang Jiu found it difficult to go back after traveling here.

As he was talking, Zhao Zhuoxi caught two fish.

Lu Ming had gathered firewood early in the morning and started a bonfire. Tao Hua also prepared the fish and started roasting them.

Over there, Lu Ming also shot two pheasants and found a few pheasant eggs.

The four of them had a barbecue by the river. Zhao Zhuoxi prepared salt, chili, cumin, and honey according to Jiang Jiu's taste. The barbecue skills were perfect.

Lu Ming couldn't help but sigh: "The master's craftsmanship is getting better and better."

After having a delicious lunch, I spent the rest of the time wandering around.

It’s just that Jiang Jiu has the habit of taking a nap, so he found a place where the sunlight was not too strong, lay down on the grass, and felt so comfortable.

Jiang Jiu was taking a nap, but what she didn't know was that Zhao Zhuoxi met Jiang Mingyue on the mountain.

To be exact, Jiang Mingyue followed Zhao Zhuoxi all the way up when she saw him at the foot of the mountain.

"Lu Yunyang? Are you Lu Yunyang?"

On the back mountain, Jiang Mingyue took advantage of Zhao Zhuoxi being alone and stopped him.

Zhao Zhuoxi glanced at her calmly: "What's the matter?"

Even if Jiang Mingyue didn't care about the affairs of the court, she knew that Prince Qi was now the emperor.

And the Zhao Zhuoxi in front of him, formerly Lu Yunyang, was actually the emperor.

She actually gave up her throne to Jiang Jiu with her own hands. How could she not feel happy about this?

"I pay my respects to your majesty. Please help me because my family is Jiang Jiu's relative."

Zhao Zhuoxi looked down at Jiang Mingyue coldly.

"How do you want me to help you?"

Jiang Mingyue pulled up her sleeves, revealing her arms covered in scars, with new wounds overlapping old ones.

"Your Majesty, I married a scoundrel who beats and scolds me every day. He has spent all the money I have left at home. If I continue to live with him, he will beat me to death soon."

Zhao Zhuoxi said calmly: "You choose your man yourself, you can't blame others."

Jiang Mingyue pouted in grievance: "But Your Majesty, if Jiang Jiu and I hadn't exchanged marriages, I would be your wife now..."

Zhao Zhuoxi raised his eyebrows and sneered disdainfully.

"Then why do you want to change your marriage?"

In fact, Zhao Zhuoxi had wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but it was not that important, so he did not ask.

Besides, if it weren’t for the marriage exchange, he would never have met the woman he loved.

Jiang Mingyue hesitated for a long time before saying, "It's just because I had a dream at that time."

"In my dream, I married your Majesty. At that time, your name was still Lu Yunyang, and you were a dandy spendthrift. Less than a month after we got married, you squandered all the money in the family. The Lu family wanted to separate from you. After we separated, you were left with basically nothing except my dowry."

"At that time, I was very angry, but I couldn't divorce you, so I could only persuade you to walk the right path. But I didn't expect that you were unwilling to do so. You even deliberately distanced yourself from me and flirted with the concubines in the mansion, which made me angry."

"Later, I went back to my parents' home in a rage, intending to ask my father to teach you a lesson. Who knew that the King of Qi would actually invite you to the Dragon Boat Festival banquet? But when I returned, you had already gone to Sucheng and never came back. I was so angry and anxious that I almost died of anger."

This happened to Jiang Mingyue in her previous life, and she said it was her dream.

Zhao Zhuoxi was confused, yet not confused.

Question: "If you marry me, who will Jiang Jiu marry?"
