The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

Yan Erlang was very confused.

How did things suddenly become like this?

The emperor seemed to have completely ignored the various inappropriate and strange things he had cited earlier about the mother and daughter of the Gu family. In recent years, both among the common people and in the homes of the powerful, women like the elder Gu, who were determined to have fallen into depravity by becoming mistresses, and her illegitimate children, have become increasingly unacceptable to the world.

According to Yan Erlang's idea, from the moment he exposed the past deeds of the Da Gu family, everyone should have been on his side.

After all, it is a fact that Da Gu took the initiative to plot against people and made them her mistress, harming more than one man. Can it be written off just by doing some business?

Gu Jiayin and the other person, whose hand and foot restraints were untied and who were helped up, were secretly puzzled - based on their past experience, if one traveled to another world, especially to ancient times, without a golden finger, one would always worry about being exposed, and then carefully play the role of the original self, taking on all the responsibilities of the original self.

They were afraid that the natives would notice something unusual and burn the travelers on the fire.

[Why do these two souls from another world seem to be much more timid than the previous ones? ] Xie Yuzhen asked Dreaming in his mind.

Over the years, she has dealt with many time travelers from different backgrounds. Those who came with their own "plots" were often affected by the "plots" and their temperaments became much more extreme than their original temperaments. However, they would return to normal after getting rid of the plots. However, there were also some fools who were so ignorant that they thought they could stand above these "ancients"...

Later on, not only did the number of visitors from other worlds gradually decrease, but they also gradually lost the "plot" that their ancestors brought with them. To this day, "Inspector Zhu" and the Gu family are the last time travelers in this world.

Xie Yuzhen could certainly choose to send these three people back to their original world immediately, but that would be too boring, and...she also had a premonition that the Lord God would never sit idly by and watch all His plans fail, and would definitely cause some big trouble for Xie Yuzhen at the last minute.

But what kind of trouble would it be?

Xie Yuzhen was thinking about it.

Then there is Yan Erlang. Judging from his words and deeds, although this man claims to be a gentleman and says that he was deceived by others...but he and his uncle Yan Zhuang, who can only play dead, are the most typical hypocrites and villains.

No matter how difficult the Gu family is, they are just "people". If Yan Zhuang really doesn't want to marry a woman from the Gu family, to put it bluntly, it will be useless even if this family puts the woman directly into his bed.

However, was it really because he had ruined the so-called "reputation" of the Gu family that he had to be a gentleman and accept this mother and daughter?

The deceptive trick is just to step on others in order to fulfill his own reputation as a gentleman.

If he was really a "gentleman" who was bullied, he should have taken the initiative to communicate with the two people from the Gu family instead of avoiding these two women.

A gentleman is open and honest, and can be harmonious but different. Yan Zhuang neither faced the matter openly nor ignored the rumors. He did not stop Yan Erlang's behavior and did not even give him any advice. It is obvious that he is either so incompetent that he cannot even control the servants who are indentured to him and the nephew he has brought up since childhood, or... he wants to use people as knives and whips to deal with and tame this woman he dislikes, and he only needs to remain silent, pretend to be wronged and embarrassed, and let others do the dirty and tiring work, and he himself still keeps the name of a "gentleman" cleanly.

[Perhaps everyone's original world has a different attitude towards time travel.] Dreaming said, [Master, I have also seen many time travelers. Well, when I was with the Lord God, in order to prevent the chosen souls from being too rebellious and unwilling to accept the identity and responsibilities after time travel, they often leave a hint in the souls of those who are more rebellious, so that they will obediently accept the change of identity.]

[Even if time travel was not their own choice, but was tantamount to kidnapping; even if their original bodies were notorious and had done many evil things that were intolerable in the world...the evil causes left by their predecessors, these innocent people have to bear the consequences.]

Dreaming sighed and said, with a rather embarrassed tone: [To be honest, I have felt for a long time that the Lord God’s actions were too overbearing and shameless. He said that if you use someone else’s body, you must bear the karmic responsibility of others, but…but the one who really needs to use this identity and this body should be the Lord God who manipulated the time travel behind the scenes, but He hid it well, and let others bear the sin.]

[Ahem, by the way, Master, there is one more thing that I think is too much. After the Lord God selects the travelers, he will implant a memory of them dying due to various accidents. He said that in this way, the travelers who enter the original bodies can use the original bodies to save their lives, and they will naturally bear the responsibility of the original bodies. This is an excuse to better control the fate of the travelers.]

Dream Maker put his paws on his hips: [Otherwise, people are living well in their own world, who would want to travel through time? Especially in the era of backward productivity, this is not the way to endure hardships. It is because there are too many people who are unwilling to do so that the Lord God will beat them from behind and say that they are already dead and can't go back. Traveling through time is a patch that saves their lives, so that they will be obedient and bear the suffering that they should not have to bear, so that those so-called male protagonists can more legitimately stand on the moral high ground to oppress and tease them...]

Normally, Xie Yuzhen didn't like to pay much attention to Zaomeng. Xiao Guangtuan, who had been holding back a lot of words, complained about his former boss incessantly, which made Xie Yuzhen's head buzz: [Stop.]

Zaomeng immediately shut up and acted well-behaved.

[Are you sure these people are the last travelers? ]

Zaoming shook it up and down quickly: [Yes, there are only these three waves of energy from another world. ]

[Okay, I understand.] Xie Yuzhen quietly watched Yan Erlang's defense gradually break down as he failed to achieve his goal.

After taking a few more glances at Yan Zhuang, who was pretending to be dead with an expression of shame, an idea gradually emerged in his mind - he knew that most of the forces of the Hongyang Cult were now in Yunzhou and the capital, preparing to cause trouble. He would let Lu Weiyuan deal with the part of the cult in Yunzhou, and Xie Yi would temporarily keep an eye on those in the capital.

Although the Gu mother and daughter are time travelers, today's events are obviously not led by them.

"Inspector Zhu" had just traveled through time not long ago, and before he could do anything, he was targeted by the emperor.

Then comes the problem.

How did Yan Erlang come up with the idea that the mother and daughter were the original body that had taken over another's body, and why did he think of bringing them here to block the emperor at this time and ask the emperor to make the decision for him?
