Born in the Tianji Sect, she has always been proud and never admits defeat.

Since I resisted in my heart to bow down to such a hypocrite, the only way out was to improve my own status.

Sheng Junwei suddenly remembered that the emperor's birthday would be in a month.

In her previous life, although she was not in Kyoto, she had heard something about the turmoil at the birthday banquet.

The assassin suddenly appeared and set off a storm.

She remembered it clearly. Because of her meritorious service in saving the emperor, Han Yue'er was promoted by the emperor to the position of Female Jingji Guard. She then became the supervisor of Jingji Guard, a special position that was both honorable and free. She could receive salary even if she was not on duty.

Ever since Princess Luoyang's heroic sacrifice opened the door to politics for women, the presence of female officials in the court has gradually increased. However, the female Jingji Guards were an unprecedented creation, not to mention enjoying such an honorable position.

Despite all the talk, no one has been able to emulate Han Yueer's path to success.

Han Yue'er protected her master with her own flesh and blood, and used her own flesh and blood to block the fatal blow for the emperor. This move deeply touched the emperor's heart. Ignoring the opposition from both inside and outside the court, he specially created the position of supervisor, whose status was second only to the commander of the Jingji Guard, and even eclipsed the original deputy commander.

Although this change of status made Prime Minister Pei and his wife change their views on her, the past grudges were difficult to resolve overnight, and the two elders of the Pei family did not agree to marry Pei Yu in a formal way.

It was not until later that Pei Yu relied on his own strength to win the qualification to set up a separate household, and the old couple reluctantly agreed to this marriage.

Sheng Junwei had no interest in sacrificing herself for fame and fortune. She clearly remembered the danger of the assassination. Those assassins were all desperate criminals and acted ruthlessly. Their target was not only the emperor, but also all high-ranking officials and their family members in Kyoto.

Unfortunately, although the emperor and high-ranking officials received timely protection, many unarmed elderly people, children and women died innocently.

If precautions had been taken in advance to avoid this disaster, perhaps those innocent lives could have been saved. For such a great achievement, it would not be excessive to reward him with a first-class imperial edict.

She did not ask for much. She did not care about the annual salary of several hundred stones, nor did she covet real power. She just hoped to gain an honor that could demonstrate her contribution.

As for whether this would overshadow Han Yueer, Sheng Junwei didn't have too many concerns.

After all, Han Yue'er has always been good at taking away other people's credit without making a sound, and even often comes to disturb her peaceful life. For her, instead of worrying about these things, it is better to focus on her own goals.

She was determined to obtain this imperial decree and was determined not to let any opportunity slip by.

Thinking back to the assassination attempt in her previous life, although she was far away from the emperor at the time and could not personally help, she could only watch Han Yueer take this opportunity to gain the emperor's favor. She couldn't help feeling a little regretful and unwilling.

This time, she won't let the opportunity slip away.

Even though Han Yueer no longer had the intention to compete with her for love in this life, the past entanglements were like knots that could not be easily untied.

Deep in her heart, she hated Sheng Junwei, who had deprived her of ten years of her youth, and she hated Han Yue'er, who had made her a laughing stock and indirectly pushed her to the end of her life, even more. She felt so much hatred that it seemed as if she could break ice with her gnashing teeth.

This great achievement of saving the emperor should be firmly kept in one's own pocket no matter what, and it will become the key to changing one's destiny.

At the same time, Han Yueer's heart was also surging.

As a character who traveled through time and space in a book, she still remembered the rescue scene vividly, because that was the key to Pei Yu's original wife's gorgeous transformation.

Although her original wife had Pei Yu's protection and the favor of the prime minister and his wife, she became almost a laughing stock in the capital due to the Sheng family's cold treatment.

After saving the emperor, with her noble status as "the emperor's savior", the nobles in the capital looked at her with admiration and praised her and Pei Yu as a perfect match made in heaven.

Bah! It was just a fluke.

The glory of saving the emperor?

Han Yueer is determined to achieve this achievement.

With Duke Dingguo's departure from Beijing, Sheng Junwei's life returned to normal again.

What made her even happier was that Zhang had returned from Zhuangzi, and the responsibility of supervising Pei Yu finally fell on his mother's shoulders.

Subsequently, the door of Yunyi Pavilion was closed, claiming that the owner had a severe cold and all visitors were declined to prevent the spread of the disease.

When Prince Jingxuan rescued Han Yue'er and intended to cause trouble for Sheng Junwei, Yunying's eyes were red and she said sadly: "Our young lady is indeed seriously ill..."

As if to verify the authenticity of the words, bursts of violent coughing were heard in the courtyard.

Pei Yu originally wanted to intercept King Jingxuan who was intending to cause trouble, and ask why Sheng Junwei deliberately gave the wrong address last time, but he was stunned when he heard it.

King Jingxuan also looked stunned.

He didn't want to be branded as a bully of the weak and sick.

Although he doubted how a person who was full of energy in the morning could become terminally ill in the blink of an eye, he could only give up in disappointment in the face of face and public opinion.

"Since you are sick, take good care of yourself." He emphasized the word "well", with a turbulent tide in his heart.

When he thought about how Yue'er was almost defiled by that group of shameless people, the flames of revenge ignited in his heart and he vowed to tear the future culprit into pieces.

King Jingxuan never dreamed that Sheng Junwei's forbearance was beyond his imagination.

When they met again, before he could find a chance to take revenge, the best opportunity had slipped away quietly.

Duke Dingguo followed the clues provided by Sheng Junwei and after many twists and turns, he finally found his long-lost sister thousands of miles away.

Just as Sheng Junwei said, her sister's family was in the midst of a huge crisis at this time.

It turned out that the local county magistrate's son, a dandy young man, coveted the beauty of Jin's granddaughter-in-law and wanted to take her for himself.

When threats and inducements failed, he began to think of robbing with a desperate mind.

They carefully planned a conspiracy, attempting to first destroy the Jin family by various means, leaving the granddaughter-in-law isolated and helpless, and forced to submit to the tyranny of the county magistrate's son in order to preserve the peace of her family.

Just as Duke Dingguo arrived at the scene at full speed, exhausted, the county magistrate's son's despicable plan had already reached the most critical stage.

They maliciously framed the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the Jin family and falsely accused them of committing serious crimes, causing the innocent couple to be thrown into a cold and gloomy prison.

However, the incompetent county magistrate, in order to protect his son, disregarded the law and human life, and brazenly decided to execute the couple three days later.

Fortunately, Duke Dingguo arrived in time on the morning of the day before the execution.

Without a moment's hesitation, he immediately went to the Jin family to meet the old lady.

After confirming that the white-haired old woman was his long-lost sister, Duke Dingguo's eyes moistened. He suppressed his excitement and quickly ordered people to investigate the whole story of the case.

Upon learning that his nephew and nephew's wife had been wrongly accused and were about to face a life-and-death crisis, Duke Dingguo's face turned ashen and he was filled with indignation.
