Chapter 118118 Final Chapter This life is really...
As the saying goes, "He who eats melons will always be eaten by melons." Xianyu has eaten all the melons from several major families in the past few years. She has almost reached the point of vomiting - mainly because some melons are delicious, while some are really boring, and she is too lazy to eat them even if they are given to her for free.
Moreover, some melons are quite delicious when you eat them for the first time, but they become boring after eating them repeatedly.
It just so happens that sometimes, for some unknown reason, System 003 would repeatedly push old melons to Xianyu. It’s really... Sometimes, traveling through time alone can be quite helpless.
But what can they do? They have been tied together for nearly ten years, how can they get divorced?
Anyway, I've been here for so many years, and I haven't triggered any conditions to go home. I guess I can only spend my life in this world.
Fortunately, it seems that life here is pretty good at the moment.
She was born in the Wang family, one of the four great families in Jinling, and was a legitimate daughter. She was also lucky enough to be the only daughter of Wang Ziteng, which made her a little better than Feng Jieer next door.
Anyway, seeing Feng Jieer being driven crazy by her wicked father and her evil half-brother, Xianyu felt quite sympathetic.
Well, reincarnation is really a technical job, and so is time travel.
She was quite satisfied with being Wang Ziteng's legitimate daughter. Mainly, both Wang Ziteng and his brother Wang Yao were very nice to her.
This was especially true for the old lady of the Wang family and Feng Jieer. Even the second wife of the eldest master of the Wang family next door and Feng Jieer's stepmother, Madam Li, loved her very much.
After several years of getting along, Xianyu finally reached a reconciliation with Mrs. Wang Ziteng and her original body's biological mother, Mrs. Liu - after all, she is her original body's biological mother, and even if the two of them had not been happy before, "blood is thicker than water" after all.
As I said, if your parents are not good, there is no way to change them. The best you can do is stay away from them.
Fortunately, whether it is Wang Ziteng or Liu, they are far from being in such a bad situation that they need to be replaced, so let's just leave it at that.
Anyway, after getting married, everyone has less contact, so they must be more polite and courteous, and gradually become relatives...
This is what Xianyu originally thought, but she didn't expect that the development of things would far exceed her expectations.
She did get married, but she never left home.
Strictly speaking, she got married quite young.
After all, she was only thirteen years old, and she participated in a selection of concubines and was betrothed to the Fourth Prince Yinzhen - well, really, sometimes when I think about time travel, I feel helpless. Thirteen years old, she is still a minor.
Even at a virtual age...
It just really exploded.
Fortunately, Master Kang was not such a beast. He really let her marry into the Fourth Prince's Mansion at that age, so at least she could stay at home for a few more years.
Well, several years.
Probably about six or seven years.
If the Fifth Princess wasn't about to get married, Xianyu might have lived on for a few more years. After all, she really wanted the Fourth Prince to "back off when faced with difficulties" at that time.
Family members, who understands?
For a nerd like her who has no idea of falling in love or getting married, it is actually better for everyone if she does not get married. She thought the Fourth Prince would understand - after all, he is a great man who inherited Master Kang's throne. No matter what, he is different from the other princes. She really thought that he would agree to cancel the engagement.
After all, everyone knows that how can a man endure being single for a long time?
At least this is basically not possible for men of this era.
As for staying single, Xianyu is very confident that she will not lose.
But the Fourth Prince is different.
This person is the chosen heir to the throne. Even if he is not in a hurry, his imperial father Master Kang and his imperial mother Concubine De will not let him delay too long.
Therefore, Xianyu felt that this matter had a great chance of success.
So, she took advantage of running errands and busying herself with her career to put it off for more than six years, until she turned 18 and was about to turn 20, but still had no plans to get married.
Who would have known that this fourth uncle was even more ruthless than her.
He did not react to Xianyu's obvious delay - no anger, no anxiety, and even a little contented.
Of course, this does not mean that he and Xianyu have no interaction in daily life.
On the contrary, the two of them met almost every day, sometimes even several times a day.
At the beginning, there were too many overlaps in their jobs - for example, the construction of the medical center, enrollment, and funding... Anyway, no matter what, there was a part that the Fourth Prince was responsible for, and the coincidences were so great that Xianyu wondered if they had arranged it this way on purpose.
But she didn't know whether the culprit was Master Kang or Uncle Si.
Or maybe both of them.
Xianyu's many years of experience as a working social slave have made her accustomed to thinking about problems from the perspective of a worker. Even though she knows that the fourth uncle has ulterior motives, she doesn't take it too seriously.
At that time, Xianyu was actually still very confident that as long as she was lazy and depressed enough, the hardworking and capable Fourth Master would definitely get tired of her, and sooner or later he would not be able to stand her, and would take the initiative to ask Master Kang to cancel the engagement.
However, she was wrong again.
No matter how exaggerated or how she acted, the Fourth Master remained unmoved.
He didn't show any impatience at all, and even cooperated with Xianyu's performance over and over again with a calm and indifferent look on his face...but, he was really too foul.
How can a person have such stable emotions?
This is unscientific.
Because the fourth uncle's emotions were too stable, Xianyu was the first one who couldn't hold on - this made her look stupid, and also crazy... Okay, she gave in, okay? So Xianyu had to give up fooling around and start doing things seriously.
After all, playing is playing, making noise is making noise, but important things cannot be delayed.
That would make her seem too much and even she would look down on herself.
After Xianyu gave up her mischief, the relationship between her and the Fourth Prince became more and more natural.
After all, after getting along for a long time, she found that this Fourth Uncle was not as terrible as she imagined - bad temper? Small-minded? Scheming?
It seems like none.
However, this workaholic attribute is maxed out.
The characteristics of meticulousness and careful thinking are also very obvious.
Really, there doesn't seem to be any obvious shortcomings.
As for what you said about your low emotional intelligence and sometimes speaking very directly?
That was mainly directed at others. To her, his "partner" and "arranged marriage partner", the Fourth Uncle was still very polite. To put it simply, he did not behave like a "big boss" at all.
The days of working together passed day by day, and Xianyu became more and more accustomed to getting along with the Fourth Prince.
In the words of little Daiyu, she and the Fourth Prince did not seem like an engaged couple, but more like an old married couple who had spent half their lives together.
In response, Xianyu said, Lin Daiyu, you little mischievous girl, don't think that you have found a number one scholar with a clean family background and everything will be fine just by waiting to get married.
Even if you are married and become a mother, in front of your sister Xian, you are still Sister Lin...
Then, Sister Lin, who had become more and more sharp-tongued as she grew older, retorted, "How could Sister Xian say such a thing?" She said that she had seen Sister Xian's husband, oh, that is, the Fourth Prince, sneaking a peek at Sister Xian more than once. It was obvious that he had been in love for many years and was waiting for someone to change his mind, see his deep affection, and agree to marry her.
Xiao Daiyu's words immediately touched Xianyu's heart.
Originally, she could have pretended that she knew nothing and continued like this until she saw the look in the Fourth Prince's eyes... Emma, she immediately got goose bumps all over her body and felt that she was not a good person at all. She had dragged him down for so long without realizing it.
However, they talked and talked, and every time Xianyu talked to the Fourth Prince about breaking off the engagement, he would always look at her with his deep eyes without saying a word, and in the end, Xianyu would lose every time...
Well, brother, be honest, what exactly does Ning see in me?
Can't I change it?
Unfortunately, it was of no use, the Fourth Prince remained unmoved.
What’s even more terrifying is that the Fourth Prince is not only unmoved by anything, but also refuses to listen.
I don't know why, the Empress Dowager, Concubine De, and even Master Kang himself were not in a hurry. They just watched Xianyu and the Fourth Prince competing with each other, delaying time, neither willing to get married nor to cancel the engagement. It was, really, quite painful.
Xianyu had no choice but to seek help from System 003, but she got a barrage of responses from System 003.
[No, I am talking to you, Master Host. If you don’t agree, Fourth Master, no, Fourth Prince will have no descendants…]
[It’s obvious that she wants to marry you, what are you still hesitating about? This is the perfect ending of “a lifetime of being together”! ]
[There is something even more terrifying, host, let me tell you, if the Fourth Prince has no offspring, then this small world will most likely collapse. Have you thought about whether you want to die young? It’s a pity to lose such a good identity as a time traveler. So many time travelers envy you and cannot even envy you enough...
[The most regrettable thing is that you didn’t even have the chance to spend all the money that Feng Jieer earned for you…]
System 003 kept chattering for a long time but Xianyu didn't respond. She even sneered in her heart: What does the destruction of the world have to do with me...until System 003 threw out the last sentence.
No, this is a foul, right?
Having money that you can’t spend is simply the most terrible torture in the world!
This must not be possible.
Xianyu's heart was shaken, and she actually grabbed the Fourth Prince's hand.
By the time she came to her senses, she realized that something had gone wrong. She had "molested" the old man.
Just when things were awkward, System 003 was still chattering away as if it was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.
[Oh my dear host, did the sun rise from the west today? You finally got it, and you finally took the initiative... How is it? Do you want to touch the fourth uncle's hand? Hehehe, after all, you are the future emperor, this is not a loss...]
tui!
What a mess. Xianyu subconsciously wanted to shake off the Fourth Prince's hand, but unexpectedly, the Fourth Prince, who had not made any move, held her hand back at this moment.
When the two hands were clasped together, the Fourth Prince's warm body temperature was transmitted through the skin, giving Xianyu an inexplicable burning sensation that made her blush and her heart beat faster, which made her face turn red.
However, the Fourth Prince did not speak or move. He just stood there and looked at her quietly.
He said nothing, yet it seemed as if he had said everything.
The atmosphere gradually became ambiguous.
Only System 003 was cheering and shouting things like "My Xipi came true", "We're getting married right here", "Congratulations on the end"...
I really don't know what this crazy system is talking about.
Anyway, Xianyu felt that her mind was starting to become a mess.
By the time I finally heard the Fourth Prince speak, I didn't know how much time had passed.
The Fourth Prince's words were in his usual minimalist style.
Even just six words.
"How about we give it a try?"
Okay, it’s really too simple, right?
This was the simplest proposal she had never thought of.
Xianyu complained silently in her heart, but when she looked up she saw the Fourth Prince's eyes.
Those were a pair of dark and deep eyes that always shone with wisdom and calmness, but at this moment, they were full of tension and panic, completely different from usual, which showed how nervous he was.
However, Xianyu's heart suddenly calmed down.
Just give it a try.
If it's him, then it seems like there's nothing wrong with it.
So, six years after being arranged to marry, the Fourth Prince finally married his legitimate wife. His icy face finally blossomed into a happy and brilliant smile, as if his life had finally come full circle.
Xianyu also felt that this attempt was quite good. Married life was more interesting than she had imagined. It was really worth it.
However, after getting married, they still have to go on with their lives.
In September of the following year, the couple began to accompany Master Kang on his southern tour in accordance with the imperial order. Unfortunately, they had to turn back halfway because Crown Prince Yinreng fell ill.
Fortunately, in the spring of the following year, they set out again, and this time the southern tour finally took place, thus starting the long years of the Fourth Prince and his wife accompanying the emperor on tours.
Because he was concerned about Xianyu's health, the Fourth Prince insisted on waiting for several more years until Master Kang no longer went on tour to the south before considering having a child.
At this time, six years had passed. Xianyu was already twenty-four years old, and the Fourth Prince was already twenty-nine years old.
According to his lunar age, he is already thirty years old, but still has no child.
There was no way. He only had one legitimate wife, Xianyu, and he didn't even have a maid. Xianyu wouldn't find any reason to force women on him.
Perhaps because they were too familiar with each other, after getting married, they quickly became a real old married couple. Rather than being a couple, they were more like partners who shared the journey of life, and they were the kind of people who could talk about anything and had a tacit understanding.
Xianyu often felt that although the Fourth Prince was a man of few words, he could always accurately understand her thoughts, as if he could "read her mind". It was simply amazing.
Regarding this, both the Fourth Prince and System 003 were very secretive - my dear Fu Jin\host, I\he can't really read your mind...you should be more careful. However, it seems that it is good not to be so careful, it is happier this way.
Of course, Xianyu knew nothing about this, but she still started preparing for pregnancy with great enthusiasm, and she ended up having two children, a boy and a girl.
Twins, a boy and a girl, really mean everything is done in one go.
Originally, Xianyu had a nonchalant attitude towards the matter of children. Of course, she still loved him, but her main purpose was to complete the task - as the fourth uncle, how could he not even have a child?
It can’t be because she has no descendants, right?
Although this is not a big problem, it is better to just get a child to play with.
Xianyu originally thought that she would just go with the flow, but who knew that she would win the first prize, having two babies, a boy and a girl. This inevitably set off a wave of blind worship in the capital. No one knew how the rumors spread among the people over the years, but they actually made her a famous "auspicious sign" who could predict the future...
He spoke in a very serious manner, which sometimes made Xianyu feel that she had accidentally talked in her sleep and revealed some secret. But when she asked him in detail, he said it was all nonsense. She could only treat it as a misunderstanding and didn't bother to care about it anymore.
As the days went by, she and the Fourth Prince gradually became Master Kang's favorite son and daughter-in-law.
As in history, Yinreng was deposed in the 47th year of Kangxi's reign.
What surprised Xianyu was that subsequent events did not develop according to the historical process - after Yinreng was deposed this time, he did not experience being reinstated and deposed again, but directly became Prince Li.
Of course, Master Kang did not appoint another crown prince, so Xianyu thought that the Fourth Prince might not necessarily become the next emperor. After all, the crown prince seemed to be living a good life after being deposed. He continued to do his job as usual and had children one after another.
This is even more true for the eldest prince next door, whose speed in having children is the fastest among all the princes in the royal family.
The situations of the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince, and even the Eighth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince were similar.
The legendary "Nine Sons Fighting for the Throne" seemed to have disappeared after Master Kang deposed the crown prince and issued an edict stating that no crown prince would be appointed before his death.
Of course, it could also be that their struggle had gone underground. However, Xianyu was too lazy to pay attention to these things, so she didn't pay much attention to them.
Anyway, seeing that they have been married for so many years and the Fourth Prince is still so obsessed with her, it is probably impossible for him to find another woman. It is also good for him not to be the emperor. At least the four of them can have peace and quiet.
As a result, in the winter of the 61st year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, Master Kang's life came to an end, and he finally passed the throne to the Fourth Prince. The power of history is indeed strong, even if the process is completely broken, the final outcome will be the same.
Xianyu became the new queen with a subtle mood, and then she found out that her and the fourth master's son "Xiaobao" was directly named "Hongli" by him, and was also named Prince Bao...
No, what does this mean?
Did they directly skip over the previous princes and make their only son the one and only Prince Bao the fourth concubine?
Is there really nothing wrong with this world?
In response, System 003 said, host, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it...
Okay, as long as you are happy.
Xianyu silently gave up thinking and began her rich but poor life as a queen - there was no other way, she was the only master in the entire harem, and there were many capable female historians, so she didn't need to do anything.
These female historians were all female talents trained by the schools affiliated with the Medical Museum. Xianyu finally followed the trend and did one of the important things that female predecessors who traveled through time must do, which was to establish education and develop women's rights... and she was quite successful.
The days passed like water, and when the time came for Emperor Yongzheng to "die", he was fine. He just happened to choose to abdicate the throne to Hongli on that day, and then took Xianyu, who had become the Empress Dowager, out of the palace and stayed in Jiangnan for a while.
Xianyu is very satisfied with such a life and feels that her life is very fulfilling. The Fourth Uncle also agrees with this.
But when he occasionally thought back to these years, he couldn't help feeling deeply touched. There was no such thing as a peaceful life. He was just trying hard to hide and not be discovered.
I just want to live that kind of life full of intrigue and treading on thin ice alone.
First of all, the throne cannot be mine, and the same goes for the queen.
Everything else is secondary and not important at all.
For the sake of the queen, he was willing to live a life of treading on thin ice. Moreover, with the queen's help, it was not that difficult after all.
The fourth master was very satisfied with his life. He gently hugged the sleeping wife, turned over and fell into a deep sleep.
Sure enough, if you like something, you must hold on to it stubbornly and not let go. This is what a fourth uncle should be like.
I am so glad that I insisted back then. The emperor was right. He is indeed the strongest among his brothers, so he married the best girl in the world, the "auspicious sign" of their Qing Dynasty, as his wife.
That's great.
It's so good that I will smile when I fall asleep and wake up.
I hope Fu Jin will always be so happy, and I hope he will always hear my thoughts.
He wants to be the best with her forever.
