[Don't do that. The whole army has been wiped out. How can you save us? Oh, okay, I know what's going on. I'll arrange a battle plan. ]

[Du Juan, take Du You and Du Ling with you, follow Song Yi's path, disguise yourself as concubines and sneak into the palace. If you can find the switch directly, that would be the best. If you can't find it, it doesn't matter. I will take the rest of you to stay near the palace.]

[You guys choose the right time to open the palace gate and let us in. We should capture the leader first. When the army arrives, they won't be able to escape even if they have wings.]

[If we can defeat the enemy with our lone army, then we will have more bargaining chips. Of course, it is better not to do this. When there is soup, everyone drinks it. When there is money, everyone makes money. It is always bad to cut off someone's financial resources.]

After a simple deployment, Du Juan and others followed Song Yi on the road. Yes, Song Yi was also a beauty selected into the palace. After all, she had an outstanding appearance and stood out among the local people.

Hmm? A standout among chickens? Can ordinary people really raise such fair and graceful girls? Humph, this guy is not simple either. However, can you really outwit the Ghost Emperor?

She hoped that she would not be scared to death when Du Juan and others revealed their true identities. The person who replaced Song Yi was a little girl named Song Shu, who was obviously not as calm as her sister.

They did things clumsily, as if they had never served anyone before, but their looks were even better. Hmm, interesting. These two sisters were really interesting. Shen Yuelan was almost impatient to uncover the true identity of these people who claimed to be the remnants of the Song Dynasty.

Chapter 233: Song Ting's Sorrow

However, Shen Yuelan still hoped that what they said was true, because that would make Shen Yuelan more justified. The two thousand Song Dynasty imperial guards in her hands were enough to prove her relationship with the Song court royal family.

If the conditions were right, Shen Yuelan could completely claim to be a descendant of the Song court. Then, with a single call, she could start a war against Li and to restore Song. Just as Shen Yuelan was feeling complacent about her plan, bad news suddenly came.

Du Juan and the other two, who were supposed to follow Song Yi into the capital, actually came back. This confused Shen Yuelan very much. Although she had known that there were some problems with the Song sisters, wasn't it a little too early to expose the truth now?

She hurried to the tent of Du Juan and the others, wondering what was going on. Why was the situation not going according to plan?

[Du Juan, why are you back? Huh? Where's Song Yi? ]

[Um, how should I put it, the talent show is over, and I was not selected? ]

【ha? 】

[Haha, although it's a bit outrageous, this is the truth. On the contrary, Song Yi was lucky enough to be noticed by Li Shuntian who was on a secret visit, and was directly taken into the harem.]

[I thought, whoever goes will go, so I entrusted her with the task of sneaking into the palace. After agreeing on a date with her, I packed her up and sent her to Li Shuntian.]

【Pack?】

[Yes, I and my concubines specially dressed up that little girl named Song Yi before sending her away. Our current intention is to make her gain Li Shuntian’s favor and successfully sneak into the palace.]

Alas, although Du Juan did nothing wrong, I just feel like something is wrong. And now the bigger question is, can that Song Yi really take on the responsibility of opening the world barrier?

Not only Shen Yuelan had such doubts, Song Yi herself also had some doubts about life. She had originally wanted to send Du Juan and the other two into that tiger's den, but she didn't expect to get herself trapped in it as soon as she entered the city. What should she do?

She originally planned to use Shen Yuelan's group of external forces to fight against them, to drive away the wolves and chase away the tigers, to kill people with borrowed knives. When the two forces were fighting and both were suffering losses, she would lead the rebel army to emerge and sweep away the reactionary forces inside and outside.

But ideals are full and reality is hard. There was a mistake in the first step of the plan. Not only did he fail to send Du Juan and the other two into the palace, but he also got himself involved. Now he has to surrender himself to the enemy who killed his father. It is a great shame and humiliation.

But before he left, the woman named Dujuan had agreed on a deadline with him. If he could close the world barrier within the specified time, they would definitely send troops to destroy Li.

Therefore, no matter it was out of personal vengeance or national hatred, she had to accept Li Shuntian as a man, and she could not show any disgust when it came to matters between men and women, and she had to serve the man comfortably.

When Song Yi thought about what she was about to do, she felt despair, but the cries of her relatives before their death once again brought her back to reality. The ship escorting her to Beijing was about to dock, and it was time to face everything.

Shen Yuelan didn't know what Song Yi was planning, but she didn't care much about it. A person who couldn't even control his own destiny wouldn't be able to cause much trouble.

The only thing that confused her was that if her job of opening the world barrier was taken over by Song Yi, what should she do now?

Slacking off? It's not impossible, but isn't it a bit unethical? I'd better think about it again.

Yes, I got it. I will stir up trouble everywhere in this world, attract the attention of the three Li brothers, and create opportunities for the Song people to get close to the center!

Very good, very good, this task is perfect. It will help Song Yi and my work record will not be left blank. So that's it.

Therefore, Shen Sushang and others soon received a new task. They were asked by Shen Yuelan to organize uprisings in various places. In name, it was to oppose Li and restore Song, but in essence Shen Yuelan intended to implement socialism.

After all, even if she really took over this world through an uprising, according to the agreement between her and Gan Yuelong, everything here would become Gan Yuelong's asset, and would not become her help.

If he asked the people of Li Yueguo to be loyal to him, he would be in a dilemma. It would be better to let them choose their own destiny from the beginning. Then the people's struggle with socialism as its core would undoubtedly be the best choice.

I will not let down the Buddha and you. If the people here are willing to choose me, then I will repay them by giving them the best things. And this spark will eventually burn the entire field.

More than 20 people in the team each chose a city they liked and started their uprising. Shen Yuelan also chose a place for herself. The city was called Jinou, a small city in the southern part of Li Yue.

Although it is a small city, the living environment is still quite impressive. For a country that can leave its homeland and seek benefits from other forces, how bad can its technological strength be?

Shen Yuelan felt the ultra-modern lifestyle for the first time in a long time. It had a similar era imprint to that of her lifetime, but was far ahead in some technological developments.

All the means of transportation here have been automated. Subways, high-speed trains, coaches and buses all run 24 hours a day. The profession of driver has completely withdrawn from the stage of history, and even the traffic police are considering layoffs.

What surprised Shen Yuelan even more was that Li Yueguo seemed to have found a more sustainable energy supply, completely abandoning the use of strategic materials such as oil and coal, which made Shen Yuelan feel very fresh.

But if you think about it carefully, for a country that can build void battleships, what else does it need to worry about the power supply of a few street lamps in its country?

In addition, unlike the small southern country in his previous life that betrayed its teachers and destroyed its ancestors, the Li Yue Kingdom did not give up Chinese characters, and even their language is still Chinese.

This made Shen Yuelan integrate into the pace of life of this small coastal city very easily. The smooth network, creative games, and fashionable makeup made Shen Yuelan inadvertently think that she had returned to her hometown in her previous life.

Yes, if it weren’t for the incompetence of the Song court, Annan would have been one of the core provinces of China a thousand years later. What can we do about it?

Looking at this rich and peaceful land, Shen Yuelan couldn't help but begin to doubt the correctness of her strategy. After all, the people were living well, and no one was willing to start an uprising.

In fact, not only Shen Yuelan was facing this situation, but everyone else in the team was in the same predicament. There were even a few guys who lacked self-control and had already been immersed in the world of feasting and revelry.

Since the world here does not have the mass base and real suffering that he imagined, then his established strategy will not work. He can only wait and see and investigate the local situation first.

Shen Yuelan is now a senior high school student. The reason she chose this identity is that the education here tends to be a happy education like the Daoguang style. The student identity allows Shen Yuelan to have more time to do her own things.

The spring day was long, the white clouds were floating, and with the ringing of the school bell, there were only a few students left in the classroom. A young girl who had not listened carefully to the lecture was lying on the desk, sleeping soundly.

The breeze kept blowing the thin curtains, and the afternoon sun slanted into the room. The mottled light and shadows were reflected on the girl's face, which was very beautiful.

Shen Huanyan, who was staying beside Shen Yuelan and reading quietly, sighed slightly as she looked at this beautiful scene. How wonderful it would be if such a life could continue forever?

Shen Huanyan's sigh was not groundless. Whether the government under the feudal framework is wise depends entirely on its head. If the head is wise and intelligent, the country will naturally be peaceful and prosperous.

But what if one day the leader is no longer wise? This is the dilemma that Li Yueguo is facing now. Li Shuntian began to indulge in women.

Chapter 234 Eat it all

[Tsk, I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon. I wanted to experience the happy life of a high school girl for two more days.]

[Haha, Master, that's not fast enough. If you were any slower, you would eat all the girls in our school.]

[That's exaggerated, that's exaggerated. I'm not that picky. I'm looking for a girl with outstanding temperament, talent, and dignified appearance. Ordinary people are not in my eyes.]

[Yes, yes, then this Jinou High School is really a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. You have found more than 20 such extraordinary girls in just one month.]

[Oh, I just had a simple meal with them, chatted with them, and got to know them briefly. I didn't even hold their hands. I still know my limits, okay?]

[Alas, that Song Yi too, I really didn't realize at the time that this guy also had the ability to charm everyone. I heard from the gossip on the Internet that these two are now staying in the Chengze Hall of the Yue Palace every day, and they haven't left the house for a long time. ]

Shen Huanyan curled her lips when she heard this and said, "What qualifications do you have to criticize others? You are the same as me, woman."

[Humph, it's not just Li Shuntian who is addicted to women, right? There's also you, Master. How long has Li Shuntian been lingering in Song Yi's rose? How long have you been lingering in the nursery of Jinou High School? ]

[Humph, I wonder if all the women in Li Yue country are so charming? To be able to make you two so indulged, I think what Su Xuan said is right, how can domestic flowers be as fragrant as wild flowers? ]

[Oh, Huanyan, you are such a fool. Why are you so jealous for no reason? Am I so important to you? ]

Seeing Shen Yuelan approaching her in a servile manner, Shen Huanyan pushed her back without hesitation. Humph, she liked her master, but that was the kind of love between relatives, the kind between master and servant, but not the kind between lovers.

Do you like yourself? Except for some narcissistic people, I am afraid that most people will not choose to treat themselves as lovers. Living together is fine, but forget about the things between women.

In the end, they became as boring as their own right-hand men. Don't ask Shen Huanyan how she knew this. Liu Shanyin has been with her master for a long time. When chatting with him on weekdays, they would inevitably talk about this matter.

Although Shen Huanyan is a virgin, sometimes out of curiosity, she would secretly open up her empathy with Shen Yuelan. Most of the time, her fingers would feel sore and numb and she was not comfortable at all, so Shen Huanyan was particularly indifferent to love.

Even though Gan Wanchuan had knelt down on one knee and proposed to her, she did not agree. Besides the fact that she really did not like love, her deeper consideration was that they each served their own master, and the relationship between the masters could easily affect their feelings.

Shen Huanyan didn't think that the relationship between Shen and Gan would always be so good. There are no eternal friends in this world, only eternal interests. When the time comes, Shen Huanyan knows what she should choose, and she also knows what Gan Wanchuan will choose.

So she would not accept Gan Wanchuan's illusory love, because there was no possibility of Shen Yuelan and Gan Yuelong being together. But whenever Shen Huanyan thought of Wanchuan's lonely back at that time, she would sigh.

It would be great if they were just ordinary people.

[Hmph, how do I view you, Master? You should know it better than Huanyan. I can give up everything for you, Master. But what about you? Will you give up everything for Huanyan?]

[You don't let me down, I don't let you down, it should be like this. 】

When facing Shen Huanyan's coquettish questioning, Shen Yuelan said this without hesitation: Shen Huanyan is another herself. If she can't give up everything for herself, then why should she let others give up everything for her?

Shen Yuelan's answer calmed Shen Huanyan's mood a little, and she finally had the mind to continue discussing work matters with Shen Yuelan.

[Hmph, you're smart, so now our chance has come, right? ]

[Well, we need to wait a little longer. Li Shuntian has just lost control of the government, and the Li Yue Kingdom is far from being in turmoil. We need to wait a little longer.]

[Master, what are we waiting for? Hasn't the power of Li Yue's central government been divided up by his two brothers? A new round of power struggle is about to begin. If we don't stop now, when will we?]

[I know, so we need to wait a little longer. After Li Shuntian retired, they have been attacking each other, trying to defeat each other and seize power. I am afraid that it will not be long before the war between them changes from a cold war to a hot war.]

[Only then will we have the opportunity to show our skills. Now the two brothers are still sane, the turmoil in the upper class has not yet spread to the lower class, and ordinary people still have hope for life.]

[It would be foolish to start a revolution at this time. Everyone would sneer at it. It might even have a counterproductive effect. Once the war starts, the power struggle will affect the people.]

[People at the bottom of society have lost hope for the future and life. When that happens, you can promote it and see how it goes. Ha, it will attract a lot of responses.]

[Of course, my thoughts are somewhat taken for granted, but the general idea should be like this, so we should just stay the same in the face of all changes.]

[Don't we need to do something in advance? We can't pierce our ears right before getting into the sedan, right? ]

[Oh, no need. Suffering is our best propaganda. By the way, what is for dinner today? ]

【Curry rice.】

[Eh? I don't like eating that. I always feel that the taste is weird.]

[That's because you haven't eaten what I made yet. Just follow me to buy the food and wait for me to eat it when I get home.]

[Yes, Chef Huanyan!]

No matter how terrible life will be tomorrow, at least the streets are quiet and peaceful today. The two packed their schoolbags and set out on the journey home accompanied by the golden red sunset.

Their residence is a villa in the suburbs. Although Shen Yuelan is very poor, it depends on who you compare yourself with. At least Su Xuan can still earn enough money to rent the villa for her.

The only thing that made Shen Yuelan a little dissatisfied was that their student status did not allow them to drive. That's right, if they wanted to drive, they had to pay a fee in any world.

In Li Yue Country, minors are prohibited from driving and are not allowed to take driving tests, so the two poor kids can only go home by other means of transportation.

At the door of the convenience store, Shen Yuelan was counting the ants on the ground out of boredom while waiting for Shen Huanyan. Looking at the ants carrying the debris on the ground, Shen Yuelan couldn't help but think of a book she had read in her previous life.

It has been so long that Shen Yuelan has forgotten the specific name of the book. She only knows that it seems to be one of the "Three-Body" series, and the first page of the book is a description of ants.

I found it very boring when I read it at that time, and it was not as good as the best-selling novels translated from foreign languages, so I did not continue reading it. But I did not expect that the series of novels would suddenly become popular many years later.

It was even made into an animation. One can only say that things are unpredictable. But if you ask Shen Yuelan now whether she would choose to go back and read the novel, Shen Yuelan would definitely refuse. It is better to say that Shen Yuelan would never watch any film or TV series that was remade into a movie or TV series.

Reading is a process of imagination. Through the description of words, everyone will form his or her own Hamlet in his or her mind. However, the embodiment of TV dramas will destroy this process and make reading lose its original charm.

When it comes to reading, you either read it carefully or don’t read it at all. Ambiguity is the most exhausting thing, Shen Yuelan thought.

Chapter 235: Night Falls

Shen Yuelan's whining was interrupted by Shen Huanyan who came out of the convenience store carrying vegetables. She called Shen Yuelan, who was still squatting in the corner watching the ants, to go home together.

[Master...Lanlan, stop playing and go home to eat. ]

[I see. Tsk, why do I feel like my mom is calling me home for dinner?]

[Uh, hehe, since you say it's an illusion, then it must be an illusion. Hurry up and walk a few steps. I can walk faster than you even if I'm carrying things. If you walk any slower, we won't be able to catch the bus to work.]

[Why panic? The bus runs 24 hours a day. If you can't get on this one, just take the next one.]

[No way, Huanyan is hungry, Huanyan wants to eat! ]

[Okay, okay, I'll go faster. Oh, it's good to see more of the scenery along the way. I'm afraid I won't be able to see scenery like this for a long time in the future.]

[If you can't see it, then you can't see it. There are plenty of surface worlds with equally advanced technology in the inner world. If the master wants to experience such a life, we can find a similar surface world one day and apply for a vacation.]

[Well, that is true for us, but for the residents here, this moment is eternity.]

[Yes, yes, but there is nothing unchanging in this world. As the saying goes, things that have been separated for a long time will eventually come together, and things that have been together for a long time will eventually separate. This is also the case with the general trend of the world. They are just unlucky. They were born in a prosperous era and died in the twilight.]

[Huanyan, your words are really cold. ]

[Is that so? But Huanyan said this because she knew that she was powerless to change all this, and she didn't need to change all this. She shouldn't interfere in other people's affairs. Master, why do you need to put so much pressure on yourself? ]

[Yeah, that's true. At the beginning, I just lingered on the scenery here and didn't think too much about it. Does this mean that I have strayed further and further away from my original intention? ]

【Owner! 】

[Okay, okay, I won’t let my imagination run wild anymore. Seriously.]

The setting sun was getting increasingly dim. After a quarrel, Shen Yuelan and Shen Huanyan, two sisters who looked alike, finally walked slowly into the station. Shen Yuelan looked back at the setting sun and sighed inexplicably:

[Is the night about to fall? ]

If history is a little girl who can be dressed up by anyone, then the situation is like a middle-aged woman who is going through menopause, with fickle emotions. She could be gentle and warm yesterday, but cruel and violent today.
