After returning, Gu Wei quickly began to prepare for starting a business. It took half a year before the company was finally established. During this half year, no matter how hard Gu Wei worked or how late he was busy, he would return to the small apartment he and Yu Rou lived in.
The two of them have never moved to a new place. The house belongs to Yu Rou, so Yu Rou always says that Gu Wei is a gigolo and is living with her for free.
Gu Wei also liked her to say this, because he was the only one who had such treatment, and he was the only one who could enjoy the right to live in her house, and he was just responsible for supporting her.
Another year passed, and Gu Wei's company gradually grew and had a place in the city. Gu Wei also became the main subject of interviews in financial magazines. When someone asked about his love life, he said that he had found the love of his life a long time ago and might get married at any time.
It just so happened that Jiang Chi also accepted an interview with this magazine. Facing the same question, Jiang Chi said that he lost his beloved because of his blindness. He watched her leave him, but he would always protect her silently and watch her be happy.
On the day of the proposal, Gu Wei prepared flowers, rings, and a sumptuous dinner that he cooked himself.
He took out the ring and said to Yu Rou, "Falling in love with you is defenseless. They say falling in love means losing. I am willing to lose to you and I am willing to give my heart to you. You are holding my heart now. Are you willing to wear this ring?"
Yu Rou finally accepted the ring, but the two did not hold a wedding. Yu Rou stayed in this world for another three years before she summoned the system to leave.
"Should we end this world and move on to the next one?"
Yu Rou looked at the man lying beside her, the nostalgia in her eyes slowly faded, and she nodded, "Yes, let's go."
…
Yu Rou woke up suddenly, opened her eyes and saw herself lying on the bed, surrounded by several maids wearing plain green Hangzhou silk bodices.
She had no strength in her body and was extremely weak. When the maids saw her wake up, they hurried to help her dress and wash.
She just took advantage of this moment to absorb the plot, squinting her eyes as if she was distracted.
Seeing her like this, the maids thought she was still half asleep and didn't dare to call her. They just helped her up and changed her into new clothes.
People in ancient times took a long time to wash and dress up, so during this time, Yu Rou figured out the entire plot and the original owner's memories.
This time, she came to an ancient time of unknown era. The customs and habits were different from those in her life. The people of this dynasty were open-minded, but they valued culture over military affairs.
But the original owner was the daughter of a military family.
The Yu family, a prominent family in Bianjing, had always valued martial arts, believing that mastering them was the key to defending the nation. They discouraged their children from pursuing literary pursuits. Even the servants, big and small, except for the maid in Old Lady Cui's household, were illiterate and incapable of composing a single line of poetry.
However, after the new emperor ascended the throne, he prioritized civil officials over military officials, even proposing a policy of entrusting civil officials with important positions and strictly prohibiting military officials from interfering in government affairs. Furthermore, with the people living and working in peace and contentment, and no wars raging in the surrounding areas, the power of civil officials and aristocrats in the Da'an Dynasty grew stronger, while military officials were relegated to idle positions, far less important than the civil officials who held important positions.
A saying began to circulate during the dynasty: "The emperor values heroes and teaches you to write; all other pursuits are inferior, only reading is superior."
Due to various reasons, none of the children of the Yu family passed the imperial examination and became Jinshi.
Two years ago, the pillar of the Yu family, Old Master Yu, also known as the founding hero Duke Ying, suddenly passed away due to illness. The Yu family also encountered frequent troubles and has gradually declined in the past two years.
The original owner was determined to lead her family to prosperity. She heard stories from her maid, saying that the queen of the previous dynasty originally came from a declining family with a low status, but after entering the palace, she was loved by the emperor and her family was also valued.
The current emperor is old, so the original owner thought of the prince.
She thought that if she could marry the prince, when he ascended the throne, she would become the queen, and her family would be valued and promoted, and gradually prosper.
With this plan in mind, the original owner began to try every possible way to get close to the prince.
The original owner was able to come up with this idea mainly because she was so beautiful. Almost any man who saw her would be fascinated by her. Her appearance was rare and stunning. Not only was she beautiful, but she also had a natural peach blossom fragrance, which was enough to make all men in the world crazy for her.
In her eyes, as long as she wanted, it would not be difficult to make the prince fall in love with her.
This was indeed the case. After several chance encounters she had planned, the prince fell in love with her.
The relationship between the two became increasingly strong. Just when the original owner was coaxing the prince to ask for marriage from the emperor, the prince was suddenly framed. His subordinates committed witchcraft and implicated him. It was also discovered that he had long had the intention of treason. The emperor was furious and directly stripped him of his position as prince.
But he was the emperor's most beloved son after all, so he did not receive any other punishment apart from this. It was just that everyone knew that there was no hope for the prince and the throne.
The original owner decided to abandon him after much hesitation and turned to the fifth prince who was the most likely to be appointed as the crown prince at that time.
She almost followed the same method and succeeded in seducing the fifth prince.
Originally, the fifth prince should have ascended the throne smoothly in the end, but the plot did not develop that way.
Just when she made the prince fall in love with her, the prince was reborn with the memories of his past life.
The reborn prince did not do anything at first, but secretly launched a series of revenge against her and the fifth prince.
Her mission target this time is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
…
At this moment, Yu Rou heard a series of footsteps coming from outside the door.
"Has my sweetheart woken up yet?"
The voice came before the person arrived. Several maids walked in, accompanied by a beautiful woman.
