Chapter 159 Charming Princess VS Gentle Junior Official 1
Chapter 159 Charming Princess VS Gentle Junior Official 1
Every time Shi Yixi was ostracized or targeted in court, he would go back to the original owner of the body and cry, saying that it was all because of the original owner that things were like this.
The original owner, blinded by love, repeatedly pleaded with the emperor for Shi Yixi, which led to Shi Yixi's rising status, eventually making him the prime minister.
Even at this point, the original owner still believed that Shi Yixi loved her, after all, she had given birth to two sons and a daughter for him. However, one day, when the original owner wanted to personally buy some items for her husband and children...
They unexpectedly encountered Shi Yixi, accompanied by a woman who was extremely beautiful even with a veil on. Standing next to her were her former beloved children, who affectionately called her "Mother"!
The original owner of this body was never one to take things lying down, so she stood up directly in public and confronted Shi Yixi and the woman.
The woman, easily embarrassed, blushed deeply, but her husband and child remained protective of her. In the end, Shi Yixi took the woman's arm and left, leaving the original owner alone on the street.
The common people, however, were pointing fingers and gossiping, because of Shi Yixi's achievements over the years, which made them think he was a good person.
Even though Shi Yixi hasn't taken a concubine all these years, which is already considered more than enough kindness towards the original owner, who knows that those achievements of Shi Yixi weren't actually his?
He simply hired many advisors and kept them in the villa; even the money was paid for by the original owner.
Just as the original owner discovered this and was about to investigate, she suddenly coughed up blood and then fainted. Even after taking medication, she remained unconscious.
Therefore, she could only consciously sense that Shi Yixi and the woman named Ming Xiaxia had perished in front of her bed. The original owner regretted it, regretting her stubbornness.
When the original owner died, everyone in the manor was already under Shi Yixi's control. Even her personal maid had thrown herself into a well. The original owner knew that only her father, the Emperor, would grieve for her. She died in agony.
"This love-struck fool has ruined a winning hand!"
Lin Chuyun couldn't help but complain about the original owner of this body. How could she be so stubborn as to fall for a man?
The original owner's wish was to completely destroy Shi Yixi, ensuring he could never recover! Why should he climb over her to get ahead? Let him try and see if he can succeed! After all, the higher you stand, the harder you fall.
"Princess, Princess, the top scholar has arrived!"
Zhu Chu ran and shouted. She had gone to the Prince Consort's mansion with the original owner of this body, but in the end, she was drowned in a well by Shi Yixi while protecting the original owner.
"Okay, stop arguing, I heard you!"
Although the original owner was spoiled and willful, she wasn't the kind of master who was completely unreasonable. Therefore, none of her personal maids were afraid of her; on the contrary, they were wholeheartedly devoted to her well-being.
"Princess, shall we?"
Zhu Chu knew how much her princess liked the top scholar, and now that they were most likely going, she had already prepared the clothes. The top scholar liked women who wore pink.
"Princess, shall we wear this?"
Looking at the pink dress, Lin Chuyun remembered that Ming Xiaxia, whom the original owner had seen, was also wearing a pink dress.
"Don't bother, let Shi Yixi wait outside. Today I want to try on my dress properly!"
Lin Chuyun stood up and looked at the wardrobe that the emperor had specially made for the original owner of this body; the clothes inside were simply countless.
Lin Chuyun casually picked up a few outfits and started trying them on, while Zhu Chu helped her. Although she didn't know why her princess wasn't in a hurry to see the top scholar, she couldn't understand why either.
"Princess, we've been testing for an hour now, and this top scholar..."
"I'll try on the red one again."
"Yes, Princess."
Lin Chuyun tried for two full hours, and by then it was time for dinner. When Zhu Chu went out, she found that Shi Yixi had already left.
"Princess, the top scholar has already left!"
"Let him go then. I remember we haven't decided on his official position yet, have we? This top scholar has too little patience. It would be better to find him an official position that cultivates patience."
Zhu Chu couldn't understand what her princess was thinking, so she could only nod.
"The official position the princess mentioned is naturally excellent."
"Fine, take any hairpin you like from my table!"
"Thank you princess!"
At dinner, the emperor specially came to keep Lin Chuyun company. It was at this time that Lin Chuyun brought up Shi Yixi.
"I heard this afternoon that you had Shi Yixi sit here for two hours?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I was just trying on the clothes you prepared for me. I forgot the time."
"Is that so? My son should wear bright and eye-catching clothes. Why wear those clothes that concubines wear!"
"Father, I heard that none of the top three scholars (Zhuangyuan, Tanhua, and Bangyan) have been assigned official positions?"
The emperor put down his chopsticks; this was the first time the original owner of this body had mentioned this matter in front of the emperor.
What are Chu Yun's thoughts?
"What opinion could I possibly have? It's just that Scholar Shi only waited for me for a short while before leaving. Don't you think Scholar Shi has a lot of patience?"
"I understand. I will naturally arrange a suitable official position for Scholar Shi!"
When Lin Chuyun first brought it up, she was worried that it might anger the emperor, but after the meal, she only felt the emperor's deep fatherly love for the original owner of this body.
"Chuyun, whatever decision you make, your mother and I will support you."
The emperor patted Lin Chuyun's head and left. Watching his retreating figure, Lin Chuyun suddenly realized why the emperor doted on the original owner of this body so much.
When the emperor was still a prince, he married his childhood sweetheart, the late empress. However, the road to the throne was fraught with danger, especially since the emperor at the time was the most favored.
After finally becoming emperor, during an assassination attempt, the late empress shielded him, causing her to give birth prematurely. Only the weakened original owner of the body survived; the late empress died of poisoning.
The emperor was nearly devastated, but it was only when the eunuchs brought the original owner of the body that the emperor was saved by her small cries.
The emperor channeled all his love and guilt towards the late empress onto the original owner of this body. Furthermore, since the original owner's frail health stemmed from the late empress shielding her from a sword, the emperor was almost always willing to grant her every request.
"This time, I will protect you and myself!"
After Lin Chuyun finished speaking, she turned and went back to the palace, but suddenly she remembered something: Where was Chen Lingmo?
Meanwhile, Chen Lingmo finally accepted the plot. Compared to Shi Yixi, one had a cheat code while the other didn't; the so-called cheat code was the original owner of this body.
This time, Chen Lingmo's body is that of the second-place scholar in the imperial examination. In his world, he finally achieved second place and was preparing to make great strides when, due to a disagreement, he was relentlessly targeted by Shi Yixi.
He eventually died of depression, and the wish Chen Lingmo received was that he must try his best to survive this time! He must make a name for himself!
