Chapter 775 The Journey of Exile (11)
When Wangyou was nineteen, Xie Yuchen and Zhang Qilin turned eighteen, and the three of them got married.
On her wedding day, Wangyou received a special wedding gift.
It was sent by the Lu family. Wangyou could only sigh that belated affection is worth less than grass. After all, the person who truly needed their compensation had long since died in the river of time.
Another ten years passed, and after six years of being bedridden, Jiang finally breathed her last. In her final moments, she saw her previous life, and saw the little girl who longed for family love die at their hands.
"Retribution! It's all retribution!" Jiang cried out in grief and indignation before passing away.
Lu Xun's nerves were weakened by the torment he suffered from his two sons and adopted daughter's family. He died less than two years later, and before he died, he saw what Jiang Shi had seen, and was filled with remorse.
Lu Jing and Lu Chen ultimately died on their way to avenge Lu Tingting, which was in line with their original ending.
As for Lu Tingting, the family she married was not good. Her adoptive parents were all dead, and her biological parents only wanted to benefit from her. Lu Tingting could not bear it any longer and poisoned the Hu family to death. She was wanted by the government, later arrested and brought to justice, and beheaded as a warning to the public.
Five years later, Nangong Che gathered his troops, marched to the capital, reclaimed the throne, and ended the chaotic era. He then worked diligently to govern the country and became a wise and benevolent ruler.
Wangyou said that retirement was a real retirement; she truly did nothing in this world and left at the age of sixty.
However, because she saved the world's destined emperor, Heaven still bestowed upon her a great deal of merit, so she didn't lose out.
Wangyou returned to her natal space and went into seclusion without giving any explanation.
The dragon scales on Wangyou's body all evolved into a space, where there were no living beings for the time being. As the space within each dragon scale expanded, Wangyou gradually and thoroughly understood her responsibilities.
The reason why the world experiences catastrophes every now and then is because of its incompleteness. The responsibility of Wangyou is to fill in this incompleteness, to fully integrate into the world, and to take control of the world.
She is indeed the ruler of the six realms, and she is indeed immortal and indestructible, but whether she can survive after repairing the entire world is unknown, and whether the one who survives is actually her is also unknown.
As for where that root of love came from, Wangyou still has no clue, but the question of the root of love is no longer important now.
Once these things are sorted out, 30,000 years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Wangyou suddenly didn't know how to face Xie Yuchen and Zhang Qilin. She had brought them into the realm of eternal time, but she couldn't promise them a future. Wasn't that too selfish?
"Wangyou, you're awake. Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, I have something I'd like to discuss with you." Wangyou decided to leave the choice to them.
"What's wrong? Don't scare me!"
"In the catastrophe that will take place 300 million years from now, I will most likely perish completely. Even if I survive, the person who survives may not be the same as I am now. Therefore, let's void the previous agreement!" Wangyou said calmly.
“Wangyou, this promise cannot be broken. We are husband and wife. Even though we are not married yet, we would have died long ago without you. We will live together and die together. This promise cannot be broken.” Xie Yuchen said seriously, holding Wangyou’s hand, his tone tinged with anger.
"But if you continue to stay with me, there are two options: first, you disappear from the world with me, completely disappear, without even a soul; second, you forget me and start a new life. The second option is better for you."
"No, you can't make decisions for us!" Zhang Qilin said disapprovingly.
“Let’s accumulate merit. As long as we accumulate enough merit, there will always be a glimmer of hope.” After a while, Zhang Qilin said, looking at the merit bead in his hand.
"Fine, do as you please." Anyway, there's still plenty of time; maybe they'll figure it out themselves by then.
I sensed Pangu's natal space, and it's still inaccessible.
"I'm going to the next world. Are you coming with me or going alone?"
"Let's go together, otherwise if you get kidnapped, where will we find wives?" the two said with a laugh.
After much deliberation, the three finally chose a world set in the Qing Dynasty.
……
“Father, I want that little pony.”
"Fine, you can have it if you want it!"
"Thank you, Father. Where is my brother?"
"Your elder brother has gone to train troops. In a while, the Emperor will bring his princes and ministers to Mongolia for an inspection."
"Father, our Mongolians are clearly no less powerful than the royal family, so why should we have to bow down and submit?" Wangyou cracked her whip in dissatisfaction.
"Because he is the emperor and we are his subjects, and besides, the current Empress Dowager is from our Khorchin, so naturally we have to be careful."
“Father, I don’t like the Empress Dowager. She always takes our Mongolian girls to the royal family. The emperor doesn’t like our Mongolian girls, but he insists on taking our Mongolian girls to live as widows. She’s completely inhumane.”
"She was doing it for the good of Mongolia!"
"Throughout history, how can any marriage alliance be reliable? The Aisin Gioro family is the best example. When Huang Taiji needed the Mongols, the Manchus and Mongols were one family. But when Shunzhi could no longer use them, they became shackles. Their attitude of eating from the bowl and then cursing the cook is truly unsightly!"
He was dissatisfied and therefore spoke in a very unpleasant tone.
“My little darling, why do you blurt out everything? You can only let your father hear this, but you can’t let anyone else hear it, otherwise the royal family will have another reason to attack our Mongolia.”
"I understand, Father. I'll go find my brother and help him train his troops. Anyway, emperors take turns, and who knows, it might be our family's turn soon." Wangyou skipped away.
Borjigit Temujin looked at his daughter's retreating figure with a sense of helplessness, but her words also stirred up boundless ambition in his heart. His children were so outstanding, how could he be willing to let them become pawns of the Manchu royal family?
The Borjigit clan has developed rapidly in recent years. Now they can be self-sufficient without relying on the royal family. They are militarily strong and well-equipped. They may not be able to rebel, but protecting their children is not a problem.
Temujin suppressed his thoughts and continued to send people to handle all matters related to welcoming Emperor Kangxi.
"Forget your worries!"
"Achen, Linlin, I'm here!" Wangyou waved to the two of them.
The two quickly rode their horses towards Wangyou.
"Forget-Me-Not, where are you going?"
“Go find my brother and train the troops with him.”
"That's perfect, let's go together, we agreed to go together yesterday."
When the three arrived at the barracks, they saw Borjigit Tore practicing his military formation. They didn't rush to disturb him, but quietly waited for him to finish training.
"I reckon you won't be able to finish this quickly, let's go and improve the firearms first!"
“Alright.” The three of them went straight to the nearby firearms camp and began to improve the firearms, hoping to equip each of the Borjigit warriors with one by the end of the year, so that they could go to sea to conquer other countries next year.
