In late spring in March, various flowers bloom on the trees and orioles sing in Chang'an.

The sky was dimly lit and the morning stars gradually disappeared. The first drum sounded from the majestic drum tower at the main gate of the imperial city. The drum towers from Tianjie to the main roads followed suit. The rumbling sounds of bells and drums rolled through the more than one hundred city blocks arranged neatly vertically and horizontally, awakening this sleeping majestic imperial capital.

The curfew was lifted, the gates were opened, and the cold and empty streets were soon filled with the noise of people. Ox carts and horse carriages drove out of the heavily guarded high-gate courtyards and merged into the dense and crowded flow of people on Suzaku Street.

The sky is filled with mist and the golden morning light breaks through the clouds and pours down. Thousands of households are enveloped in the dazzling brilliance, creating a scene of peace and prosperity.

Inside the Taiji Palace, maids walked along the winding corridors carrying gilded copper basins and dewy flowers picked before sunrise.

The bright skirt swept across the recently renovated tiled floor, and the rustling sound it made was like a light rain.

Chunru lifted the curtain, walked into the inner room, and put down the copper basin.

I had just opened the incense burner and changed a bunch of incense when I suddenly heard a few painful moans from behind the large black lacquered screen inlaid with landscapes and figures.

"Brother...Brother..."

Chunru turned around the screen, hung up the gauze curtain, and looked at the Seventh Princess's face with a frown on her face.

"Princess?"

She wrapped a handkerchief and wiped the face of the seventh princess, Li Yaoying, and called her name softly.

The Seventh Princess was frail and often had nightmares. No matter how many doctors she had consulted, her condition did not improve. The maids had become accustomed to it.

Hearing Chunru's gentle call, Li Yaoying woke up from her nightmare.

Tears dripped from between her thick eyelashes and slid down her cheeks.

Chun Ru asked distressedly, "You had a nightmare again? Were you tired from the grand banquet in the palace last night?"

Li Yaoying's eyes were blurred with tears. She stared at the mottled sunlight that came through the screen into the inner room in front of the floor, and was stunned for a long while.

What lies before you is a magnificent bedroom, not a battlefield that looks like hell on earth.

The horrific scene of blood flowing like a river and corpses flying everywhere in the dream gradually faded away.

Li Yaoying slowly woke up, smiled, wiped her wet eyes, and got up to wash.

Just a nightmare.

Chun Ru picked up the golden comb with Jialing Pingjia pattern and combed her hair. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty and the King of Qin have won a great victory. The news of the victory has spread throughout Guanzhong. It won't be long before the King of Qin returns in triumph."

The Seventh Princess called out to her brother in her dream, she must have been worried about the Second Prince, King Qin, who was fighting outside with the Saint.

Every time the King of Qin went on an expedition, the Seventh Princess would have nightmares.

Li Yaoying picked up a half-opened peony flower and pinned it to her hair. She looked at herself in the mother-of-pearl octagonal bronze mirror and smiled, "I know my second brother will return safely."

What she saw in her dream would not happen.

The girl in the bronze mirror had a smile on her lips. Although she had not put on any makeup in the morning and there were traces of crying on her face, she was still a beauty, as beautiful as Shunhua.

The slightly red eyes add a touch of charm that is difficult to describe in words.

Chunru was so distracted by the sight that she felt half of her body go numb.

I wish I could be torn into pieces just to smooth over the princess's frown.

Li Yaoying glanced at the maid in the mirror with a smile, her eyes moving, revealing a sense of innocence and playfulness.

At this moment, all charm is gone, just like a lotus emerging from clear water, naturally without any embellishment, cold, clear, gentle and moving.

Chunru came back to her senses and lowered her head to concentrate on tying the seventh princess's hair.

…

Half an hour later, the streets became more and more lively.

Li Yaoying was wearing a green forged Uighur robe with a gold-woven bead pattern and a veiled hat on her head. She rode her horse through the bustling long street and stopped in front of a secluded courtyard. She took off her veiled hat and looked back at the bustling market behind her.

Who could have imagined that just a few months ago, this capital city that had been glorious for over a hundred years was still a scene of ruins, devastation and chaos?

Li Yaoying dismounted, casually pulled out a soft whip, knocked off the dust on her soapy leather boots, smelled the rich aroma of buttered bean cakes in the air, and smiled slightly.

There will be peace soon.

I would rather be a peaceful dog than a troublemaker!

The last emperor of the previous dynasty was arrogant, extravagant, licentious, cruel and tyrannical. He frequently launched wars and oppressed the people. Within a decade of his reign, he led to chaos in the country, uprisings broke out in various places, and aristocratic families rebelled one after another.

This marked the beginning of several years of chaos.

The Central Plains was in chaos, and nomadic peoples took the opportunity to invade the south, causing wars and flames to rage.

The year Li Yaoying was born, her father Li De, with the support of aristocratic families, became a local overlord with millions of soldiers.

Fourteen years passed in a flash. Li De fought in the south and the north, successively defeated the enemies entrenched in the north, and finally led his troops to occupy Chang'an in August last year.

The last emperor had died at the hands of rebels on his way to the south of the Yangtze River several years ago. In the past few years, Chang'an City had changed its owners one after another. Even foreign races had claimed to be kings and dominated the city, burning, killing and looting.

After several wars, this magnificent capital has long lost its former prosperity.

After the Wei army entered Chang'an, they enforced strict military discipline and did not harm the people. Li De constantly sent messengers to make friends with the northern barbarians, recover small forces from all sides, and win over local aristocratic families, gradually stabilizing people's hearts.

The general trend of the world is that after a long period of division, there will be unification. After several months of governance, the people in Guanzhong have settled down, tribes from all directions have come to surrender, and the city of Chang'an has begun to recover its vitality little by little. The prosperity of the past is just around the corner.

Aristocratic families, famous scholars and elderly people in the community jointly petitioned Li De to become emperor several times.

After repeated refusals, Li De chose an auspicious day to officially ascend the throne and establish the Wei Dynasty.

Li Yaoying was the seventh daughter of Li De. When her father became emperor, she became the seventh princess, honored with wealth and status.

Having seen so many lives lost in the chaos and displacement, Li Yaoying felt very lucky to finally see peace.

As a girl of the Li family, I have no worries about food and clothing, and I am protected by strong slaves and soldiers when I go out. I am lucky to be able to grow up safely and smoothly in the chaotic times.

My mother is gentle and kind, and my brother is caring and doting.

Coming inexplicably from the stable modern world to this strange world and becoming the seventh daughter of the Li family is not too bad.

Unfortunately, Li Yaoying soon discovered that she had an older brother named Li Xuanzhen who was born from a different mother.

The famous Emperor Taizong of Wei Dynasty, Li Xuanzhen.

Li Yaoying has read the book "Li Xuanzhen of the Great Wei".

At the end of the book, the male protagonist Li Xuanzhen led his troops to defeat Southern Chu, Western Yue and dozens of small regimes. After the victory, he immediately returned to Chang'an to force his father Li De to abdicate, ascended the throne as emperor, led his troops to pacify the grassland, completely unified the north and the south, suppressed the aristocratic families, promoted the poor families, and established civil and military achievements, laying the foundation for the prosperity of the Wei Dynasty.

After repeatedly confirming that Li Xuanzhen was really his elder brother, Li Yaoying trembled with fear.

She and the male protagonist Li Xuanzhen are not just from different mothers.

They are enemies.

The Li family had been guarding Wei County for generations and was a powerful family in Wei County. Li De was a concubine's son and had been lonely since childhood. He married Tang, a merchant girl, at the age of 25. At the age of 28, he joined the army and gradually became prominent in the army. He soon replaced his elder brother as the head of the Li family and was granted the title of Wei County Military Commander.

Later, war broke out and chaos broke out in various places. Li Deshun responded to the situation and recruited soldiers and horses in the name of defending his hometown. He led his people in an uprising, gathered tens of thousands of people, and won several small victories.

Li De often led troops outside, and Tang stayed at home to take care of her son Li Xuanzhen.

When Li Xuanzhen was two years old, a group of rebel soldiers escaped from Canghuang to Weijun. They took advantage of the weak defense and entered the county town, looting everything.

The family servant who stayed behind in Wei County sent out the news: Tang's mother and son were killed by the swords of the rebels.

Li De was so angry that he fell into a trap set by others during the battle, suffered heavy casualties, and all his personal soldiers were killed. He himself was also seriously injured, and lost several cities within a month.

Seeing that the Wei army was about to be defeated and the Li family's many years of foundation were about to be lost, the clan members advised Li De to unite with the aristocratic families to consolidate his power.

The Li family is a powerful family, but not an aristocratic family and has never been accepted by the aristocratic families.

After Li De recovered from his injury, he accepted the advice of his advisers and went to the Xie family, the most powerful family at that time, to propose marriage, promising that if he could achieve great things in the future, he would definitely make the Xie family's eldest daughter his queen.

The Xie family was rich, well-connected, and prestigious, but they lacked a general who could lead troops in battle. So they agreed to marry their eldest daughter to Li De, and the two families set a date for the wedding and reached an agreement to share wealth and honor.

Little did they know that Tang was still alive.

She was a weak woman, but she took Li Xuanzhen to escape the blockade of the rebels, and after wandering around and suffering a lot, she finally found Li De, and just happened to witness the eldest daughter of the Xie family getting dressed up and marrying her husband in a grand ceremony.

Tang made a big fuss, but the ceremony had already taken place and Li De could not break off the engagement.

With the support of the Xie family, Li De quickly gained strength and revive his forces.

Invincible on the battlefield, but war broke out in the backyard.

Xie came from a prominent family and looked down on Tang, whose ancestors made their fortune by selling timber. Tang hated Xie's family for taking her husband away and cursed Xie all day long.

One was the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, and the other was his first wife. Li De didn't want to offend either of them, and he was extremely worried for a while.

Li De was in a dilemma, and his servants were even more embarrassed. Due to some strange coincidence, both ladies were considered Li De's principal wives after three matchmakers and six betrothals. How should they be addressed?

In the end, they could only vaguely call each other Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Xie.

The two ladies had been fighting for several years. As the eldest son Li Xuanzhen and the second son Li Zhongqian, born to Xie, grew up, the war spread to the position of crown prince.

The Xie family is a noble family that has survived through several dynasties. Li De's success is inseparable from the Xie family's strong support. The elders of the Li family believe that the Tang family is of low status, and the second son, Li Zhongqian, should inherit the position of the crown prince because of his mother's noble status.

Seeing that her son could not compete with Li Zhongqian, the violent Tang committed suicide in the wedding dress she wore when she married Li De.

Before she died, she laughed loudly several times: "My dear, my dear, you have failed me in the end!"

Li De was in the army at the time. When the news of Tang's death was delivered to the tent, he vomited blood and fell to the ground in a coma.

Within half a month, this heroic leader who had fought on the battlefield for many years aged more than ten years, and half of his black hair turned white.

Only then did the world know how deeply Li De loved his first wife, Tang.

Li Xuanzhen became the crown prince.

Xie was disheartened.

Zi did not kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of Zi. Li Xuanzhen thought Xie was the culprit who forced Tang to death, and hated Xie and her children.

Li Yaoying's biological mother was Xie, and Erlang Li Zhongqian was her brother.

Before her death, Tang told her son to avenge her in the future.

In the book, Li Xuanzhen always remembered his mother's instructions, and used other people to force Xie to death, set a trap to kill Li Zhongqian, and even did not spare the distant branches of Xie's family.

As for Xie's little daughter, she was only mentioned briefly in the book without even being given a name. She might have died at a very young age.

…

Li Yaoying was speechless and choked with emotion.

He found out that he was an unknown character who died young, and his eldest brother who held military power was always thinking about how to torture his mother and brothers, and would definitely kill him. What should he do?

Li Yaoying once tried to reconcile with Li Xuanzhen, but found that this approach was not feasible.

Li Xuanzhen's hatred for the Xie family could not be resolved at all.

She could only strike first.

As a result, this path is even more unfeasible.

Li Xuanzhen is the male protagonist, who has great luck and great opportunities. Although he is often in dangerous situations, he can always turn danger into safety at the last moment, as if he is helped by God.

Li Yaoying attacked several times, but not only did he fail to hurt Li Xuanzhen at all, he also ended up with wounds all over his body.

Sometimes she would just silently think about how to embarrass Li Xuanzhen, and then she would immediately get a splitting headache and feel uncomfortable all over.

Li Yaoying recalled two iron laws in the book:

Even though the hero was stabbed all over his body, he couldn't die.

Whoever harms the male protagonist will be punished by God. It's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet.

Li Yaoying rolled her eyes toward the sky.

Is it possible that he can only accept his fate and wait for Li Xuanzhen to come to power and kill him and his second brother?

Li Yaoying was unwilling to accept the defeat. On the one hand, she was on guard against Li Xuanzhen, on the other hand, she was looking for another way to save her life.

Over the years, she carefully dealt with Li Xuanzhen's methods and saved the lives of her mother Xie and her second brother.

According to the book, Li Zhongqian should have died a year ago, and Xie would have committed suicide by taking poison shortly thereafter. Li Yaoying temporarily changed their fate.

She knew that she could not change the final outcome, she could only let her brother A Niang live a few more years.

So what?

One more day lived is one more day lived.

…

The restaurant on the corner is bustling with people, the pancakes are out of the oven, the aroma is getting stronger, the noisy voices can be heard from afar, and the present world is peaceful.

Li Yaoying put away her thoughts and stepped onto the stone steps.

The personal guards stepped forward and knocked on the gate.

There was a sound of cursing from inside. A fair-skinned, thin young man in his twenties opened the gate, glanced at the Jiannu personal soldier standing behind Li Yaoying, and frowned, "My lord, what can I do for you?"

Li Yaoying smiled brightly: "It's still cold in the spring, I heard that Du Lang has had a cough these days, so I came to see him."

The down-and-out young man in front of him is named Du Sinan. He was supposed to be Li Xuanzhen's right-hand man, and the vicious plot to frame his second brother Li Zhongqian was his idea.

Li Yaoying found this frustrated scholar two years ago and prevented him from becoming Li Xuanzhen's conspirator, allowing Li Zhongqian to live one year longer than in the book.

Du Sinan had a cold expression, his eyes fell on the smile floating on Li Yaoying's cheek, his breath got choked in his throat, and he sneered continuously.

"I am a lowly person, and I am not worthy of your care."

Li Yaoying didn't care about the undisguised sarcasm in Du Sinan's tone. She stood at the steps and glanced at the corner of the alley with a smile.

A furtive figure stood there and watched for a while, then turned and disappeared into the morning light.

He is Li Xuanzhen's man.

The corners of Li Yaoying's lips curled up slightly.

Even though she couldn't kill Li Xuanzhen's right-hand man, she could still cause some trouble for them.

The author has something to say: The heroine traveled through the book as a baby, and there was no such character as the heroine in the original book.

Opening a post~ Thank you to every little fairy who passed by and collected it~ I am scrolling to ask for touch, care and comments~

Please pre-collect "I Just Want Glory and Wealth"

Everyone knows that she is greedy for fame and wealth, and she will do anything for it.

The prince she had been in love with for several years was imprisoned, and she seduced her former fiancé in front of the prince

With red eyes, they asked her: How sincere are you to me?

She smiled faintly: I just want glory and wealth
