Xiao Qi is indeed a good candidate to be a wise ruler. I have thought that instead of letting him disappear with hatred, it is better to let him be a truly wise ruler.

When we returned to our hometown from the capital, I tricked Xiaoqi into going with us. I wanted him to see our country and the sufferings of the people. I wanted him to be a truly good emperor.

It was also to make him completely cut off contact with Shen Yan'er.

I found my sister and asked for some books about governing a country. I knew she must have some, so she didn't refuse and found a lot for me.

But this is my sister's secret, so I finished reading all the books and wrote down all the strategies and theories that are beneficial to the development of our national strength. I called Xiaoqi and gave them to him.

He asked me why him.

I just said one thing: because we are friends.

I know Xiaoqi took note of it. He thought I really regarded him as a friend.

Actually...never mind, maybe we really are friends.

I talked to my godfather, and he was very surprised by my choice, but he was very tolerant of me. He said, since you think Xiaoqi is suitable, then let her be Xiaoqi.

The foster father began to personally teach the Seventh Prince, passing on all that he had learned throughout his life.

When Xiaoqi left my house, it was the Queen Mother who sent someone to pick her up personally. We all knew that Xiaoqi's identity was going to change.

Sure enough, after returning to Beijing, we received news that the Queen Mother had registered Xiao Qi under her own name. He became a legitimate prince and was closer to that position.

But I know this is not enough.

I began to give him advice and act as his military advisor, and he became more and more dependent on me.

Shen Yan'er has grown up a lot, but she still seems to be unwilling to give up on Xiao Qi. I designed a plan to let the Queen know about this, and Shen Yan'er was sent out of the palace.

At that time, she was ten years old.

Because of the maritime trade, His Majesty has become more trusting of Xiaoqi. Those vassal states tried to fool us by saying that we don't speak the same language, but in fact they didn't know that my sister knows everything.

Not only that, my sister also taught me. She gave me a small square box and said it was called a learning machine. Following my sister's method, I quickly learned several vassal languages, and I also taught Xiaoqi.

Dad said that Xiaoqi needs achievements, so let's go and defeat Japan and use it as a stepping stone for Xiaoqi to ascend the throne.

And they really deserve to die.

My sister showed me the history of their time. Those Japanese people were really hateful.

I wanted to destroy their country, and my father wanted to do the same, but Xiaoqi felt pity for those ordinary people. However, from what I saw in the book my sister gave me, those who died were all ordinary people.

But there were too many people who didn't support my father and I's ideas, because they couldn't empathize with us, including me. If I hadn't read the history my sister told me, I wouldn't have been able to empathize with us either.

But will I give up? No, so I came up with an idea to control Japan in my own hands. As for whether they will destroy themselves in the future, it depends on whether they listen to me.

Dad and sister are good people, and I don’t want them to be stained with blood.

Xiaoqi became the crown prince as he wished and began to handle state affairs. He pulled me to accompany him and asked me everything.

I guessed some of what my sister said before. In my previous life, I must have been a powerful official. Now, I seem to be walking on this path.

My father took my mother back to our hometown and gave me the title of Marquis Wenchang. Some people gossiped behind my back, saying that I had picked up an official position. Unfortunately, they were wrong. In order to shut them up, I just took an exam and became the top scorer.

My sister finally married Brother Li. I was a little unhappy because I always felt that Brother Li was not worthy of my sister because she was a fairy. However, my sister liked him.

After they got married, the family left me and went back to the village. I said they abandoned me. My father was very conflicted, but I was joking. I knew where my battlefield was. I would not leave the capital, nor would I leave Xiaoqi.

Only by staying with him can I ensure the safety of my family.

What I didn't expect was that His Majesty and the Queen also ran away with Dad, leaving a mess for Xiao Qi and me. I was so angry.

I wrote a letter to my adoptive father, and he sent His Majesty back. However, even though His Majesty was back, he had even less time, so he just stayed away from the harem and left all the affairs of the previous dynasty to Xiaoqi, who became the crown prince. Xiaoqi cried and pestered me to accompany him, so I could only accept my fate.

Xiao Qi completely controlled the government, and His Majesty simply abdicated and became the Emperor Retired. He took the Empress Dowager away again, saying that he wanted to see his kingdom.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, I had even less time to go back to see my father, brothers and sisters, mother, and younger brothers and sisters.

I can't suffer alone. My second brother has gone overseas, so I will bring my third brother back.

So many years have passed, we have all grown up, and looking back, nothing seems to have changed, yet it seems that everything has changed.

In the fourth year of Jingtai, Xiaoqi could no longer bear the pressure and had to choose a queen. I saw Shen Yaner's name on the list.

Still not giving up.

Unfortunately, as long as I am here, she will never be able to enter the harem.

I told Xiaoqi that she was not very good, and Xiaoqi eliminated her directly. Just like before, he listened to me.

Later, the daughter of the Chen family was chosen as the queen. I have met that girl and she will be a good queen.

When the emperor and the empress got married, I finally saw my parents, my brothers and sisters again, as well as my younger brothers and sisters. They were very well-behaved and I loved them very much. Also, my two nephews and nieces, who were from my eldest brother and sister, liked me very much and would stick to me as soon as they saw me.

My sister said that in a few years our doorstep will be broken down by people proposing marriage to me.

I looked at my sister and said nothing. Actually, I don’t want to get married. I just want to protect my family.

My eldest sister-in-law seems not to know the secret of our family, but my brother-in-law seems to have known it, and my sister no longer hides it in front of him.

Dad was drunk and insisted on taking a picture of us. My sister gave him a camera. My sister had played with that thing before. With a click, our faces were printed on the picture. My sister said that was called a photo.

This life is very long, yet it seems to go by very slowly. Later, when I was thirty years old, I became the youngest prime minister. But my parents, sister and adoptive father finally couldn't sit still anymore. They were afraid that I would die alone.

My sister arranged a marriage for me. I met many noble ladies and finally chose the one I liked the most. I don’t know if that counts as love, but she became my wife and I will respect her. She gave birth to two children for me, a son and a daughter, and took good care of the family.

In my life, I never thought that I was a good person, but everyone said that I was a good person, a good prime minister who served the country and the people. But only I knew that I was not. I had schemed against many people, but others just didn't know about it. I also harmed some people, but I never regretted it, because they brought it upon themselves.

My sister once said that I seemed to be a villain. Villain means a bad guy. She doesn’t want me to be a bad guy, so I won’t be one.

I will only be a good person in my life.
