"Ding, emotion clearing successful!"
In the hazy darkness, Xia Yixin felt dizzy. She felt as if she were sitting in something, and it was very bumpy. There was a cloth covering her head.
Outside, there were the sounds of trumpets and drums, a lively and bustling atmosphere, along with a cacophony of voices.
Xia Yixin pulled off the thing covering her head and felt that the crown on her head was particularly heavy, making her feel uncomfortable. Moreover, it wasn't just the weight of the crown; she also felt a tightness in her chest and couldn't breathe properly.
It's strange, it seems different from this body?
Then she noticed her hands. They were fair but very swollen, with thick wrists and knuckles that were barely visible. There were ten neat dimples on the back of her hands.
She touched her body and felt a soft ring of flesh around her stomach.
"What's going on with the system?" And what the hell was this "clearing emotions" she just heard about? She only remembered that she had experienced four planes, and now she was in the punishment plane. When she tried to recall the previous four planes, she could only vaguely remember some things, but she couldn't remember what anyone in them looked like or what happened.
As for why she came to punish this dimension, her mind went blank.
"Host, don't be afraid. I forgot to tell you this before. The punishment plane will forcibly erase emotions. This is also a way to protect you. I hope you can complete the mission as soon as possible," the system said guiltily.
“…I feel like there’s something wrong.” Xia Yixin frowned.
The system abruptly changed the subject, "Ahem, alright, host, now prepare to accept the plot!"
As soon as it finished speaking, a long plot of events flooded into Xia Yixin's mind.
It turns out to be another fictional ancient world, but unlike the previous second world, this is a completely chaotic world, with four kingdoms fighting each other for a hundred years. The female protagonist, Shen Ruyu, comes with a cheat code and is tasked with pacifying the four kingdoms, but unfortunately, she fails.
It failed?!
Xia Yixin watched with a dark expression.
It turns out that the original author abandoned the story. The female protagonist is named Shen Ruyu, who is the illegitimate daughter of Grand Commandant Shen. She has an older brother who is more than ten years older than her, but the two of them antagonize each other in the mansion.
Because Grand Commandant Shen had many women and even more children, Shen Ruyu's brother, Shen Shaoyang, always used his playboy persona to hide his true nature and protect his little sister. Unfortunately, the innocent Shen Ruyu was wronged by one of Grand Commandant Shen's concubines when she was only five years old. She was labeled as "malicious" and sent away by Grand Commandant Shen to be raised in foster care. Moreover, no one except Grand Commandant Shen knew where she was.
Everything changed when she was fifteen years old, after falling into the water and being transported to another world by a strong woman with the same name.
Shen Ruyu, who transmigrated, was originally a strong woman in the modern world. She was betrayed by both her best friend and her fiancé, so she distrusted men very much. After transmigrating, she had a golden finger of a spiritual spring space. Unlike Lin Luo in the beast spirit world, she made the most of it.
She taught herself the art of alchemy and mixed it with the spiritual spring water to create a cure-all. She then fabricated a story about learning from a wandering monk and transformed herself into a goddess healer. She gained the attention of Grand Commandant Shen, who was always focused on personal gain. Later, in order to gain power, she volunteered to marry the powerless eight-year-old Emperor Qi Lin and became an Imperial Noble Consort. She also eliminated all those who had plotted against the original owner of this body.
Unlike Zi Linglong from the second dimension, Shen Ruyu is very intelligent and resourceful. In the court, she relied on the eunuch Cao Anmin to establish the Eastern Depot, appointing Cao Anmin as its supervisor and gradually gaining real power. She executed the regent ministers. Outside the court, she supported her brother Shen Shaoyang to become a general, controlling the army of the Yushang Dynasty and becoming the most powerful person in the court.
The entire Yushang Dynasty fell into her hands, and she used modern military knowledge to build a Black Guard Army, which defeated the three kingdoms.
Although the female lead, Shen Ruyu, is ruthless, arrogant, and suspicious, no one in the court dares to say "no." It seems that she is just one step away from becoming empress after unification, but then the author abandons the story.
So the main god added a superfluous twist, turning Shen Shaoyang into a villain. He suddenly killed the eunuch and imprisoned the female lead. Then, because of Shen Shaoyang's actions, the four kingdoms that were about to be unified fell into chaos again and split into five continents and sixteen kingdoms. It wasn't until ten years later that a "divine ruler descended from heaven" appeared and unified the kingdoms.
After reading the synopsis, Xia Yixin could only say, "EXM?!"
Is Shen Shaoyang out of his mind? He turns evil at a crucial moment, and the main god is really...
She suppressed her urge to complain and began to receive the original owner's memories again, hoping that she wouldn't arrive too late and that her incompetent teammate, Shen Shaoyang, hadn't turned evil yet.
After receiving the original owner's memories, Xia Yixin remained silent for a long time.
She wasn't too late, but too early. Just like the first time she arrived, she was now three years before Shen Ruyu's arrival, and she was in the late Han Dynasty, the predecessor of the Yu Shang Dynasty.
The old emperor of the Han Dynasty was incompetent and foolish. After ascending the throne, he forgot the ancestral teachings, lived a life of extravagance, and had a particular fondness for beautiful women. This resulted in a large number of women and children in the harem. The old emperor only cared about giving birth and not about raising them. Over time, this led to the maternal relatives bullying each other and the princes fighting among themselves. The court and the harem were in a state of chaos. The old emperor still only cared about himself and even took a fifteen-year-old concubine when he was eighty years old.
So he went too far and died in bed.
To prevent chaos in the court, General Zhao Jin, in alliance with eunuchs who supported the second prince, disregarded the opposition of the court officials and secretly summoned Xia Jingfeng, the warlord of Beiwu Prefecture, to the capital. They thought Xia Jingfeng would help the second prince ascend the throne, but they did not expect to have invited a pack of wolves.
Xia Jingfeng was fearless, having nothing to lose. Beiwuzhou was a desolate region with a fierce and martial spirit among its people.
After arriving in the capital, he saw its prosperity and naturally refused to leave. Moreover, he was ruthless. He first plotted to kill Zhao Jin to seize control of the Tiger Tally, and then imprisoned or poisoned the other princes under various pretexts. At first, the people in the court thought that the Second Prince had given the order, and they all attacked the Second Prince's henchmen. It was only after Xia Jingfeng shifted all the blame to the Second Prince and the Second Prince hanged himself that everyone realized what had happened.
By this time, the original fifteen princes were either imprisoned or crippled, and almost none of them remained.
At this moment, Xia Jingfeng actually pulled out a fifteen-year-old boy named Qi Yu from the cold palace, saying that he was the son of the late empress.
Everyone knows that the late empress has been thrown into the cold palace by the old emperor for more than ten years on the grounds of "jealousy". No one expected that she would have a son.
There were doubts, but fortunately the late empress was still alive, and there were also palace maids who testified that the man who was born and raised in the cold palace was indeed the old emperor's legitimate son. However, because he was born with the Greedy Wolf Star, the old emperor was very wary of him and had always tried to kill him. It was the late empress who hid him in the inner palace, thus saving his life.
Therefore, Xia Jingfeng purged the ministers in the court who opposed him, installed the eldest son of the late emperor, Qi Yu, as the young emperor, and promoted himself to prime minister, thus seizing all power.
Unfortunately, Xia Yixin is Xia Jingfeng's daughter.
