After the divorce, the four big guys became my servants

"Zhao Ge, I feel so happy reading this letter. I don't know when you found this letter, but it was after I passed away. There are some things I can only tell you after I die. Now, I will be honest with you. You must hold on to the handle of the chair and don't faint from shock.

Actually, I am not from this world, but from a thousand years later...Hahaha! You mortal, are you shocked? ! ! Remind you again, don't fall. Ahem... Let's get back to the point. Due to an accident, I accidentally became the controller of this body. At that time, I was full of ambition and became the right-hand man of the crown prince Yuwen Lian, but I was also backfired by power and was eventually imprisoned in another courtyard by Yuwen Qi. That's how I met you.

Frankly speaking, at first, I just thought it was funny that you were so depressed all day long. No matter what topic I talked about, you would always bring up life and death! If you didn't know, you would think you were the black and white impermanence that chased souls and took lives. But later, when I learned about your experience, I couldn't calm down for a long time. Over time, I seemed to feel more indignant about your fate than you did.

So, after you died, I did something that went against the will of heaven - I changed time and space, and bought you a chance to start over. Therefore, I deserved the punishment from heaven. However, don't be sad for me, I just returned to my original world. Speaking of which, I was very scared, after all, you were really smart, and you probably guessed what was going on that day, so I panicked and had to ask Liyang to drive you away.

In this life, you are living such a good life, I am really happy for you. In fact, I have seen you a long time ago, but I was just watching you secretly in the corner. I originally planned to "leave after the work is done, hiding my achievements and fame", and never thought of seeing you again, but you fell off the cliff, and fate made us meet again, isn't it fate?

Well, having said this, I have no more strength left, and I am afraid I will die soon. But after thinking about it, I still feel very sorry that I can't take you to the Western Regions again...

ps: That bitch Li Yang, didn't do anything to you, did she? She's actually a nice person, but she has a bad temper and doesn't know how to hide it. In this life, I will never be able to respond to her feelings. To be honest, both she and I are miserable people with unrequited love."

Tears wet the letter paper. Seeing this, Zhao Ge suddenly realized something.

What's wrong?

She thought hard, and then it dawned on her.

The time of Pei Yu's death seemed to be only three or four months away from the time she was killed in her previous life.

If she had not come and taken Pei Yu to see a doctor, Pei Yu might not have survived last winter.

Wouldn't that be the exact same time as when she died in her previous life? !

Zhao Ge finally reacted and held the letter against her heart, her tears almost running dry.

What divine punishment? He said it so lightly.

He clearly exchanged his own life for hers, and he was bearing the pain of her previous life for her!

"You've given so much for me. What do you want me to do? How do you want me to repay you?" She murmured in a hoarse voice.

She will never be able to repay him in this lifetime.

And at the end of the letter, he wanted to comfort her, so he drew a smiley face and wrote below: Don’t cry!

Zhao Ge cried and laughed at the same time, and couldn't help but say, "This is such an ugly painting."

That day, she sat on the bedding that Pei Yu had slept on for a long time, reading the letter over and over again.

……

Five years later.

Time flies like an arrow.

The current world situation is completely different from that of five years ago.

Emperor Shun was very ambitious. Within five years, he successively annexed Southern Chen and Northern Han, and launched an expedition to the northern desert, which led to the surrender of various tribes in the northern desert.

Now, Shun State’s only enemy is Southern Qin.

The war between the two countries seemed to be imminent. Southern Qin began to recruit soldiers on a large scale, and even the people were filled with the strong smell of gunpowder.

After the rain, there are many water vortices remaining on the ground, clearly reflecting the passers-by.

A woman in green clothes walked over the whirlpools, carrying fresh flowers picked from the yard, and arrived at Princess Liyang's mansion.

"You are a rare guest. What are you doing here?" Princess Liyang glanced at her while she was shaving her face with a jade wheel.

For the past five years, she has been living in that courtyard every day, just like a cultivator, and has never been seen coming out.

The last time I came to the princess's mansion was probably during the Chinese New Year, when I came to wish her a happy new year.

Zhao Ge smiled and said, "Princess, I'm going back to Fengjing."

Princess Liyang stopped what she was doing unexpectedly, "You are finally planning to go back. Well, if you don't leave now, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you when Qin Shun starts the war."

"I was thinking about this as well, worried that it would implicate the princess." Zhao Ge said, "So in the past five years, I basically didn't come to the princess's mansion, just because I was afraid of being targeted."

So that's why she didn't come.

Princess Liyang's ears blushed and she felt a little ashamed. It was her petty mind that was really in her heart.

She poured her a glass of wine and raised it, "Then here, to send you off."

Zhao Ge smiled: "Okay."

...

On the journey back to Shun State, Zhao Ge felt very comfortable with the beautiful scenery.

Now Shun State has annexed most of the territory of Central Plains. After leaving Southern Qin, it took only one day to reach the border of Shun State.

Her vigilance was let down after she left Nan Qin.

After passing through several cities, he saw that the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and even the beggars on the streets were few and far between. Storytellers in restaurants and teahouses also praised the achievements of the current emperor. Zhaoge listened and felt very happy for Yuan Jinglie.

Because she was driving the carriage alone, the return journey was greatly delayed.

It was already half a month later when we arrived at Lin'an, near Fengjing.

That day, the sky was dark and Zhaoge found an inn to stay in.

When paying the bill, the shopkeeper kept glancing at her face stealthily.

Zhaoge felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't find any evidence for this fact. So he endured it, paid the bill and went upstairs.

At night, two figures sneaked to her door.

"Are you sure you put the incense in her room?"

"Don't worry, she must be sleeping soundly now."

"Row."

Two men pushed the door open, took out a sack, and carried the person away on their shoulders.

I do not know how long it has been.

When Zhao Ge regained consciousness, he saw a golden nanmu crane screen in front of him. Before he could think about it, he heard voices outside.

"It's exactly the same!" A woman was speaking.

Then came the voice of an elderly man: "I was lucky enough to see the Empress in the palace. She really looks like her. But this girl... is darker and thinner."

"Could it be that she is?"

"No way. The queen disappeared before the ceremony of enthronement. It's been five years. She must have died long ago."

"Then we will present this woman to His Majesty. His Majesty will surely be delighted!"

Then, there were the sounds of footsteps.

Zhao Ge felt weak and didn't dare to move rashly, so he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

She was pulled up from the bed by two maids, and her clothes were casually fiddled with, and no one knew what happened to her. Then she was put back on the chair.

At this time, the woman who had just spoken came back and asked, "How is it? Are you done?"

"Ma'am, everything is fine."

"Okay, help him onto the sedan quickly, don't delay the time."

Zhao Ge was supported by them and put into a sedan chair.

I don't know how long it shook for, but it finally stopped and a eunuch's shrill voice was heard outside.

"Why are you here so late? Hurry up. Your Majesty is busy in the Qiankun Palace and will soon return to the palace to rest."

Then, someone carried Zhaoge off the sedan chair.

She was placed on a bed, and the eunuch drove everyone out of the hall and lit sandalwood in the incense burner.

Not long after, footsteps were heard outside.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. You are back."

"Yeah." The man's voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of fatigue.

He added: "I have already said that I do not like the smell of sandalwood. Do not light it tomorrow."

After saying that, he walked towards the bed again.

Through a layer of pearl curtain, Yuan Jinglie pinched his brows, raised his eyes slightly, and saw a strange figure on the bed.

He glanced at the eunuch fiercely.

"You've gotten better and better at this. Even Longtan Palace has been sneaked in."

The eunuch knelt on the ground in fear: "Your Majesty, I don't know!"

"You are even more useless if you don't know. You are the steward of Longtan Palace. Are you blind? If you are so lax in your work, you don't need to be the steward anymore."

Yuan Jinglie's eagle eyes were cold and he was extremely impatient.

Immediately two guards dragged the eunuch out. The eunuch was crying and wailing, and suddenly he remembered something, as if he was grasping at his last straw.

"Your Majesty, please take a look at the woman inside first!"

What are you looking at?

This is not the first woman who is so smart as to act like a wise guy in recent years.

Yuan Jinglie was furious, and slammed his hand on the table: "And that woman inside, throw her out!"

"Yes!"

Several eunuchs got up from the ground, rushing in to drag out the woman who was not aware of her own danger.

But at this moment, in the dim light of the candle, a slender figure walked towards them from behind the pearl gauze curtain.

A bare hand lifted the gauze curtain, revealing a face as soft and cold as moonlight.

Several eunuchs stood still where they were, as if they were frozen in place.

After a moment, one of them exclaimed, "Your Majesty! Look!"

"What are you looking at!"

Are these eunuchs today so bold and courageous?

Yuan Jinglie stood up angrily, so angry that he almost rolled up his sleeves to beat these people.

However, a cheerful laugh came from behind.

He suddenly froze like a wooden man, but his heart was beating wildly and uncontrollably.

When I turned back in a daze, the beautiful smiling face of the woman I had been thinking about day and night appeared before my eyes.

Zhao Ge raised her eyebrows slightly, crossed her arms, and looked at him calmly, "My Majesty, who are you going to throw out?"
