Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

Unexpectedly, when the child came back at night, his clothes were in tatters and faint footprints were still on the surface.

There was still a bruise on his forehead, but the child greeted me as usual.

I grabbed him and asked, who did this?

Children don’t talk.

I looked at the somewhat stubborn child and understood that he didn't want to embarrass me.

I half-closed my eyes, "Qin Jiu, you have to know that now that you are being beaten, it's not just you who is being beaten."

“Those people who bullied me slapped me in the face.

Do you think it’s just your business?”

The child remained silent for a while before he whispered, "I understand. I will take revenge myself."

When Qin Jiu came back from school the next day, except for his dirty clothes, there were no injuries on his body.

I sighed. Kids are kids. They just keep fighting.

I thought that I haven't done anything since I traveled through time, so I wanted to do something this time.

It was just that I was planning to take a nap before doing anything, but I didn’t expect to be messed up.

Early in the morning, the Queen brought a large group of people into my palace. I didn't even have time to put on my clothes before I went to welcome them.

I was fine, but I didn't expect Qin Jiu to be caught as well and his forehead was pressed to the ground.

"What is the Queen doing?"

After all, after raising a cat or a dog for a few days, you can develop feelings for it, let alone a living child.

"Royal Concubine, the good son you taught actually murdered your legitimate son!"

This is groundless and without reason, and even a clay person would be angry.

"The Queen said without any evidence that it was done by my Highness. I guess there is some evidence. Whatever it is, I can see it. This way, I can have a clear mind and give an explanation to His Majesty."

"Otherwise, when His Majesty asks about this in the future, how could a dignified prince be treated like this by a few servants..."

I didn't say anything, but my eyes fell lightly on those eunuchs.

When they received my gaze, the eunuchs looked hesitant.

No one wants to be used as a pawn in a game.

"I am the head of the harem. I will report to His Majesty whatever I need to do. As a concubine to my sister, what do I need to report?"

The queen looked exasperated and exhausted.

I think the eldest son, whose rank is unknown, must have suffered a great crime.

I lowered my eyes, my mind racing.

There is no evidence for what the Queen said. Although I don't know what Qin Jiu did, it's fun to have a give and take. After all, it was the legitimate son who took action first.

The fault lies with the other party, and the other party will catch up with you.

Since she is a concubine with a powerful background, she seems weak if she keeps avoiding people like this.

I didn't want to bully others by taking advantage of my power. By relying on the power of the treacherous minister Qiao Quan, I was destined to be in the same boat with Qiao Quan. Treacherous ministers will not have a good end, and I will inevitably die miserably in the future.

Then...

After Qiao Quan falls, find someone capable and able to protect you.

If you want to borrow the power of others, you must also keep up with your own abilities.

Others’ things will always be other people’s. Only when you become strong enough, you will not have to rely on anyone else.

The queen didn't know that I had already made up my mind at this time. She raised her hand, and the loyal maids and eunuchs behind her swarmed up. The maids came to suppress me, and the eunuchs came to suppress Qin Jiu.

Facing this circumstances.

Before I could think of a solution, the other eunuchs and maids in my palace had already stood in front of me.

I was taken aback.

These people usually remain calm, but now they all look solemn. It turns out they are all Qiao Quan's men?

In an instant, cold sweat ran down my body.

I tried desperately to search my memory. Because I was traveling through time, I didn't dare to show any difference. So I have always been cautious and my personality is also in line with my memory.

But as time goes by, it is inevitable that there will be omissions.

whether……

At this moment, because of Qiao Quan, I have no emotions to develop towards the Queen.

"Qiao Yue, you really don't take me seriously."

I couldn't help but smile, "Your Majesty, the Queen is so precious, but it can't fit into my tiny eyes."

"presumptuous!"

The Queen shouted.

My brain suddenly twitched, and I responded reflexively:

"You have not allowed me to be presumptuous, but I have been presumptuous many times."

"..."

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

Ok.

Because of conditioned reflex, the queen has been offended.

I appeared calm on the surface, but I was pissed off inside.

"you--"

"The Emperor has arrived——"

My knees, my boleros!

"What's all the fuss about, Queen?"

As soon as the emperor came in, he started talking about the queen. Seeing the emperor coming, the queen's face turned pale and she realized belatedly how stupid she was.

The mistress of a palace ran up to the imperial concubine like a shrew and made a scene without any evidence.

Moreover, if the matter became a big deal, it would not be good for his son. When the emperor got to the bottom of the matter, he found out that it was his son's fault.

Besides, the emperor had just told her two days ago that the imperial concubine had a special status.

now……

"His Majesty……"

The queen knelt on the ground in panic and said: "Shu'er fell into the water and is still in a high fever. I was confused for a moment. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The Queen recognized me quickly. I lowered my eyes and dared not say another word.

"Shu'er fell into the water because of the servants' negligence. He has a high fever and needs a doctor. Why don't you go down quickly?"

With these words, the queen hastily took her leave.

I knelt there trembling with fear.

"My Lady, you have spoken disrespectfully. You will be fined one year's salary and confined for one month."

Even frivolous words have made me guilty.

This is the end of the matter.

Later I found out that Qin Jiu pushed his eldest son into the water, and at the same time took a shortcut to get to the emperor.

There are so many reasons, twists and turns in these events that I just can’t figure out.

I just looked down at Qin Jiu who was leaning close to me, "You are quite smart. If you are so smart, why were you always bullied in the past?"

Qin Jiu looked at me with his dark eyes, and for a moment I felt like I was being stared at by a wolf.

“Because that’s the only way to survive.”

I didn't understand it at first, but later I realized that as a prince, it would be easy for him to be killed in the process of fighting for the throne because he had no background.

Although he was bullied, he was never killed.

"Then why are you ..."

When I thought about this kid's methods, he was so scheming, cruel and ruthless at such a young age, which made me think of something.

Throughout history, such people have never been ordinary people.

Maybe I bet on the right thing?

After this incident, many years passed.

Qin Jiu's temperament has become more stable as he grows older. Sometimes he rarely responds to what he says, except to me.

After all, we have been dependent on each other in the palace for so many years, and this guy still has some feelings for me.

"Qin Jiu, your handwriting is getting more and more beautiful."

I picked up Qin Jiu's homework, which was filled with a lot of nonsense that I couldn't understand at all.

But the character was sharp and upright, which was very consistent with Qin Jiu's identity.

The emperor asked me to give him the name Qin Shu. My original intention was to make his character less extreme, and to make him a gentleman and a scholar.

Because of my loyalty to the emperor, the emperor gave me this opportunity.
