Chapter 125: Scum Villain

Bei Jingchu knew that her expression must be very strange.

She...had never heard of such an argument.

Bei Jingchu still remembers the time when Aye wanted to implicate Yang Cainu's entire family.

She once thought that it was too unfair that those tribesmen were implicated even though they had done nothing wrong.

However, what Aye did was too cruel and unfair to those who were punished innocently.

They may be fifteen or sixteen years old, preparing to take imperial examinations and pursue great ambitions.

Maybe you are at the prime of your life and want to marry the one you love, with candles in the bridal chamber.

Maybe you have just given birth to a baby, welcomed a new life, become a parent, and have beautiful expectations for the future.

However, he will be dragged into the struggle among those in high positions, and the rest of his life will be ruined.

She couldn't bear it.

[It turns out that in the heart of the emperor, those people may be no different from straw dogs. ]

【Their joys and sorrows, their ups and downs, their joys and sorrows, their separations and reunions are not important at all.】

【But their death can shock others, that's enough, this is the effect brought by their life. 】

Lei Nian'er and the other two below all looked towards the stage at the same time.

Bei Qin tilted his head slightly, looked confused for a moment, and then returned to normal.

There was a hint of worry in Lei Nian'er's eyes, but she quickly retracted it.

And Zhou Huanjiu was completely confused.

What weird things is the princess thinking about?

The Master continued, "This is just my humble opinion. It is natural that Your Highness feels it is wrong."

"After all, people's experiences are different, so their understanding of the words of the saints is naturally different."

Bei Jing gained so much from this class that she felt she was not smart enough.

She was having a hard time slowing down.

She always felt that the value of life was precious and should be respected.

When school was over at noon, Bei Qin and the other two came over.

"Cousin, you seem to be in a bad state?"

Feeling cared for, Bei Jingchu immediately had the urge to confide in others.

But when I saw the three little ones in front of me.

[Beiqin is only eight or nine years old, and looks a little more mature.]

【But they are also children. 】

[Even if I tell them, they won’t understand. Forget it.]

Bei Qin: Damn it, I was looked down upon.

But Bei Jingchu had made up her mind not to say anything and didn't think about it anymore. No matter what they did, they couldn't get anything out of her.

The little child went home to eat with a lot on his mind.

When she returned to Xuanshi Hall, she was still obviously in a trance.

Aye asked worriedly, "What happened? Did someone in the hall dare to bully you?"

Bei Jingchu quickly shook her head: "No one dares to bully me."

She always felt that if she shook her head a little slower, the group of students in the hall would be finished.

[I actually understand everything you said today, and I don’t have any problem with it, but…]

【It is contrary to previous cognition.】

As he was thinking, Bei Jingchu suddenly realized a problem: "Aye, the Yue Dynasty respected Confucianism, and the imperial examinations only tested Confucianism, so why did the Hongwen Academy teach Taoism?"

This was obviously a very simple question for the emperor.

He asked: "What do you think is the purpose of the king's exclusive promotion of Confucianism?"

Without waiting for Bei Jingchu to answer, he gave the answer: "It is to consolidate his own rule."

"To educate the world with virtue, to emphasize the order of respect and inferiority, and the ruler as the guide for the ministers."

"Advocating the hierarchy of royal power and placing the emperor at the highest position."

"Chu'er, you have to know that all policies are tools for the king, not ropes to restrain yourself."

"You can only learn this for the imperial examination, but as a princess of the royal family, you cannot be confined by one idea. You should listen to the opinions of all schools of thought."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Bei Jingchu nodded blankly.

I understand it, but it's a bit shocking.

[Is this the result of thinking from the perspective of an emperor? ]

She seemed to have never had this experience, nor was she used to thinking about these things from the perspective of a superior.

But no matter how conflicted Bei Jingchu's heart was, she still learned what she was supposed to learn.

So much so that after a while, several students went home and talked about the new princess with amazement in their eyes.

"Is the royal bloodline so powerful?"

"I used to think that the arrival of a Bei Qin was enough to crush everyone. But I didn't expect that the arrival of a princess would be even more amazing."

"She is just a three-year-old baby. I haven't even started to learn at her age, but she can already crush all the students in the hall."

"The royal family is indeed the royal family."

Bei Jingchu returned from school at Hongwenguan as usual that day.

A little boy in eunuch's uniform came in, led by Eunuch Jiang.

"Greetings, Princess."

Eunuch Jiang's voice and the tender voice of the child rang out together.

The little boy was delicate and delicate, wearing a eunuch's uniform, but he didn't look like a eunuch at all. It was like he was playing a role.

She asked in confusion: "What is this?"

Eunuch Jiang sighed and said, "When Your Highness was born, your biological mother, Qi, wanted to exchange a baby boy for a prince."

"Your Majesty was sympathetic to his talent and did not kill him, but appointed him as your royal attendant."

"Long Shou is now three years old and is old enough to serve others. It's time for him to serve His Highness."

Bei Jingchu was confused for a moment before she remembered the fake prince that was exchanged by Qi.

The days were so busy that she almost forgot about this scumbag.

Um......

A child about her age stood there with his head lowered and his eyes lowered, and he hadn't had time to do anything yet.

Is he a scumbag...?

Right?

"Long Shou? Is that his name?"

"Yes, your highness."

Wait, Bei Jingchu suddenly realized a question: "Is he a eunuch?"

She asked in horror, "He was only three years old and he was already mute?"

Eunuch Jiang laughed and said, "That's not the case, Your Highness."

"If he wants to become a real eunuch, he has to wait until he is a little older and that thing has grown out."

"I was imprisoned at the age of three..."

“It’s really a bit bizarre.”

After Eunuch Jiang left, Bei Jingchu kept circling around her new little eunuch.

This is the scumbag villain in the original novel.

The original novel is from the male protagonist's perspective, and it doesn't go into detail about how the secondary CP is tortured.

After the fake prince and the male protagonist grew up, Qi was crowned queen because of the promise that she would be made queen if she gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor.

However, the tyrant Aye did not give the position of crown prince directly to his eldest son, but preferred the original male protagonist.

All right.

Although neither of them is his biological child.

Bei Jingchu observed a second of silence for the emperor in the original novel, and spent the rest of the time laughing.

The two older princes were fighting fiercely for power.

The description of the secondary CP of the original body and the fake prince in the original novel is very strange.

He rescued his original self who was imprisoned, and the hero thought that his brother had finally opened up to love.

But I found that was not the case at all.

The original body had a very low status in the palace and had no sense of existence.

As a result, he was killed by Empress Qi one day, and the fake prince suddenly changed his mind as if he had fallen deeply in love and was in great pain.

The scumbag finally found out about the baby swap, announced his own life experience, and died together with Empress Qi.

The male protagonist was stunned.

It's too easy to defeat a competitor who is equally matched with him...

It takes no effort to get it.

Bei Jingchu was very surprised about this.

Why don't people cherish their lives?

If your child dies, do you know how to feed him? If your nose is running, do you know how to dump the mucus?

New Year Special: The secondary CP in the original work

Bei Jingmei was the eldest son of the Yue Dynasty. His mother, Qi, was named empress in the second month after his birth.

He is a well-deserved son of the dragon and the grandson of the phoenix, a proud son of heaven.

However, as the eldest son, he was not granted the title of crown prince.

The emperor's attitude was wavering between him and his second brother Bei Jingchu.

The king and his father trusted Taoist Qian Qing and took elixirs for many years in pursuit of the way to immortality.

But his health was deteriorating day by day.

During this New Year's Eve palace banquet, the emperor, sitting high on the throne, only ate a few symbolic bites.

Then he began to greet some of the ministers who were given important positions.

As the eldest son of the emperor, he naturally has this honor.

"When do you plan to get married?"

"You are already seventeen years old. Although Chu'er has not married yet, his concubine is pregnant."

"Even if you don't value women, you should still consider having children."

Bei Jingmei politely ignored the question.

He was also a little anxious, and he used to be picky. But he also knew that offspring were extremely important in the process of gaining the throne.

He certainly had no shortage of beautiful women, but he had never experienced what it felt like to be loved and liked.

Even though he still resisted in his heart, he had no choice but to act on his own.

My second brother already has a concubine, so it’s time for him to choose one.

After accepting the toasts from his important ministers, the emperor left with the help of the empress.

The dying lion can still kill people with his bite, and the fledgling cubs dare not act rashly.

Even though they were still aggressive in private, they appeared to be friendly with each other on the surface.

Bei Jingmei raised his wine glass towards Bei Jingchu next to him to show his brotherly friendship and respect.

Bei Jingchu also responded with a smile, as if there was no conflict between the two.

The emperor's absence did not affect the singing and dancing at the banquet. The dancers from the Jiaofangsi were performing the rehearsed dance music in the center with all their might.

To liven up the banquet.

It's the same every year, no fun.

At this moment, a noisy sound was heard not far away.

Bei Jingmei turned around with interest.

A disturbance at a palace banquet? Who is so bold?

When he looked over, he found it was Taoist Qian Qing.

That's not surprising.

The old Taoist said that he was a half-immortal and was collecting young boys and girls for the emperor.

In reality, they abuse public power for personal gain and satisfy their own lust.

Those who he took a fancy to turned into corpses under the soil after he played with them tired of them.

Moreover, the corpses died in such a miserable state that one could tell at a glance how much torture they had suffered in life.

This time, a dancer was grabbed by his wrist.

Ministers were not allowed to tease official prostitutes, but as the emperor's favorites, they could even make the emperor obey their orders.

So what if he has a few official prostitutes? No one will bother him.

Just as the woman was about to be molested, another charming, voluptuous girl walked by.

She made charming moves, trying to attract Taoist Qianqing's attention and said, "Taoist, my sister is not sensible, and serving you will also kill your interest. Why not let me do it?"

The woman who was favored at first looked around, as if looking for someone who could help them.

They are a pair of close friends with deep feelings.

But what could the two actors do? No one present would offend Taoist Qianqing, who was trusted by the emperor, for them.

Bei Jingmei was also watching the show silently.

The woman looked around.

Seeing that she couldn't find a suitable target, she turned around, looked over, and took a look at the clothes he was wearing.

Then she shook off Taoist Qian Qing who was holding her and ran over.

Her skirts flew as she came, and she fell beside him, clutching his sleeves.

"I have long admired Your Highness and do not wish to be contaminated by others. If today's ending is destined, I hope Your Highness will allow me to die."

"To die in your hands would be the fulfillment of my wish."

Who wouldn't feel a little compassion for a beautiful admirer?

Bei Jingmei doesn't know how to do that.

She acted very well, but he could see it was fake.

But he was instantly drawn into those eyes.

Ambitious, full of desires and worldly eyes, unabashedly wanting to climb up.

Same as him.

Found it...

Bei Jingmei had fantasized about what kind of person she would like.

My mother said that she should be virtuous, gentle, and preferably from a noble family, so that she could be his wise wife and a good princess.

He used to think so.

Only when you meet that person will you realize that all your assumptions will be reduced to ashes when you meet that person.

He will be attracted by people with the same ambitions as himself.

And she chose the right person.

He stretched out his arms and wrapped them loosely around her shoulders, forming a protective circle.

"I just heard that Your Majesty has been worried about my offspring for a long time."

"There are thousands of beauties in this world, and it's rare for me to fall in love with one. Please don't compete with me."

Bei Jingchu, who was standing next to him, looked at the excitement and asked curiously, "Brother, you finally found a woman you like?"

He lowered his eyes nonchalantly, "What do you mean by love? She's just a dancer. An Aye's heart is broken."

After the palace banquet was over, she naturally had to follow him back to the palace.

Bei Jingmei asked her, "What's your name?"

"I don't have a surname, my name is Yangyang." She lowered her head respectfully, her eyelids drooping to cover her pupils.

He was kind for once, waiting for her to say goodbye to her old friend: "Hurry up, it will be difficult to get out once you enter my house."

Outside the carriage, the woman who had just wanted to rescue her came over to see her off, and Yangyang went over and hugged her.

As soon as she spoke, Lei Nian'er couldn't stop crying.

"You work so hard to save money every day, and everyone thinks you are a money-hungry idiot."

"You are different from us. You are not a family of criminals. You are an orphan."

"Once you have collected the money, you can leave this place."

"We were almost successful, why did this happen..."

Yangyang patted her back gently.

“It’s already like this.”

"I have no choice, but sister, I will definitely let you get rid of your citizenship."

Bei Jingmei looked at the scene of sisterly love outside the car and lowered the car curtain.

It would be a very simple matter for him to free a dancer, but he couldn't help her now.

It's not time yet.
