I became emperor in the Tang Dynasty by relying on the palace fighting system

"Is there anything I haven't done well enough?"

Pei Xuan looked at him with complicated eyes and said softly: "No, Your Highness, you are fine."

Li Hong asked again: "So, you have fallen in love with someone else and don't want to marry me anymore?"

Pei Xuan shook his head: "No, Your Highness, I have not fallen in love with anyone else. Until now, the man I love is only you, Your Highness."

Li Hong was getting more and more confused and aggrieved: "Then why did you refuse the marriage..."

Pei Xuan stared at him intently: "Your Highness, this is what I want to ask you - why are you proposing marriage so quickly and asking the two saints to grant the marriage?"

"Why didn't you tell me a word before you asked for the marriage?"

Li Hong was stunned: "I just want to give you a surprise. Isn't it good to marry me?"

Haha, this surprise you gave me is really big.

Pei Xuan complained speechlessly, because of your proposal, I had to find a way to enter the Taoist sect to avoid marrying into the royal family and being trapped in the harem.

These men are exactly like what Li Chao Xingjun said, they love to act on their own and are self-righteous.

Marriage is such an important event in life, but Li Hong didn't even discuss it with her. He just asked the two saints to grant the marriage and never respected her at all.

After doing such a disrespectful thing, Li Hong instead acted as if "I'm doing this for the good of our future", which made Pei Xuan very disgusted.

Pei Xuan sighed and closed his eyes: "Your Highness, I am very happy that you like me. It would be great to marry Your Highness, but——"

"This is not what I want."

Li Hong was confused: "Why? Becoming the Crown Princess, becoming the mistress of the Eastern Palace, isn't that what every woman in the Tang Dynasty dreams of?"

There was another voice in Pei Xuan's heart saying: No, it's not like that. At least, I'm not like that.

Pei Xuan couldn't say that, but smiled and said, "Of course, all women in the Tang Dynasty dream of becoming a crown princess, but I don't want to."

Li Hong: So what do you want to do?

Pei Xuan then asked, "Your Highness, you have been out of Chang'an and Luoyang, have you ever been to other places?"

Without waiting for Li Hong to shake his head, Pei Xuan continued, "I have been there. I have seen the farmland of His Majesty Xuanzun, and I have also seen the suffering of the people in other parts of the Tang Dynasty."

"I want to change this. I want to make life easier for the people. I want to stop the people from having to drown newborn girls."

Pei Xuan said firmly: "But if I marry His Highness, I won't be able to do these things."

Li Hong was stunned and said subconsciously: "You can also do good things in the East Palace..."

Pei Xuan emphasized: "Your Highness, do you really not understand what I am saying?"

She changed her name back to "I - Pei Xuan, I don't want to be a concubine of the Eastern Palace, even if I can be the mistress of the Eastern Palace."

"Because I'm the Crown Princess, I can't leave the palace to help the world."

Li Hong was stunned. He shed tears and shook his head: "No, Xuan, I don't understand...why, you have changed so much after going out with Xuan Zun."

Pei Xuan smiled and said softly, "Because I have seen a wider world, and I don't want to be confined to this square harem anymore."

"Your Highness, I once loved you very much, but I will not marry you and become a beauty in your harem."

"Your Highness, it's over."

Pei Xuan stood up and bowed to him: "I will take my leave."

Then, he left in a leisurely manner, leaving Li Hong alone standing there in a daze.

It's not over yet.

When Pei Judao heard that Pei Xuan had rejected the prince, he was so angry that he fell ill. Madam Li was furious and punished Pei Xuan to kneel in the Buddhist temple, saying that he could get up again when she figured it out.

Pei Xuan was also very strong-willed. He managed to hold on for a whole night, but then he caught a cold and fell ill, causing a panic in the whole family.

All her brothers and sisters, whether married or not, married or not, who could come to persuade her came.

In addition, many aunts, uncles, and cousins ​​came to persuade Pei Xuan to accept the prince's proposal of marriage.

"Ah Xuan, my good boy, just accept the prince's proposal! You will be the Crown Princess of the East Palace! The future queen!"

"Yeah, why bother? You've made your father sick over such a small matter. You're so unfilial!"

Father fell ill, mother cried every day, family members took turns to come to the house to persuade him, and Pei Xuan was under a lot of pressure.

She could still hold on at first, but the longer time went on, the more confused she became.

Is it really right for me to do this?

Li Chao Xingjun said that everyone can have ideals, cherish dreams, travel thousands of miles, read thousands of books, and change the world in their hands.

The Star God of the Li Dynasty said that women are not weak, they also have the power to change the world, and they can do what a person should do just like men.

The Star God of the Li Dynasty said...

Pei Xuan's head was buzzing. When he said these words to them, Li Zhao used the skill of [Eloquent Speech] to subtly instill such thoughts in them.

This has resulted in Pei Xuan's thoughts being divided.

She is a pure girl from an aristocratic family, and many of her ideas are deeply rooted in her bones. Now that she has accepted new ideas and developed new views, the two sides of her brain have begun to fight with each other.

After sending away another wave of relatives who came to persuade him, Pei Xuan's eyes were dull and he buried his head in the quilt.

She was so sad and wanted to escape, but the world was so big, where could she escape to?

Why is it so difficult to do things according to your own wishes?

If Aye and the others beat me up, I might be able to break with them more completely, but, but, they are the ones who love me the most!

The pain that women experience when they rebel against patriarchy often comes from the people closest to them.

They have to tear off the emotional ties formed with their close ones that are deeply embedded in their bones and blood. This process is accompanied by extreme pain. It is both death and rebirth.

Pei Xuan cried silently, and as he cried, he suddenly remembered something!

On the day when the women's regular examination was successfully held, the Star God of the Li Dynasty secretly gave her a magic bag containing a brilliant plan!

Li Zhao used King Wen's Armor and Zigu Tongbao to predict part of the future of Pei Xuan and Li Hong. In order to win Pei Xuan over, she deliberately left a secret plan for Pei Xuan.

Pei Xuan quickly took out the things and took a look.

There were only two lines of words written on it - Huo Guang, Empress Shangguan, Queen Mother of Heaven, Li Hong, and persuading Pei Judao.

Pei Xuan was very smart and understood the deep meaning immediately. She threw off the quilt, got out of bed, and went to find her Aye.

Pei Judao was lying on the bed drinking medicine. When Pei Xuan came in, he asked, "Aye, do you want to be Huo Guang?"

Pei Judao spat out a mouthful of bitter medicine along with old blood.

“Pfft—what did you say?!”

"How is it possible! How could I be a treacherous minister like Huo Guang?"
