July is full of fire and the cicadas are chirping.
In the courtyard, under the tea flower stand, a six or seven-year-old girl was lying on the stone table in a daze without any manners.
The maid on the side was a little worried and opened and closed her mouth a few times, but in the end she didn't say anything.
Although their Sanniang is young, she has always been calm and tenacious. Even the princess and the prince-in-law of the family value her very much and will not regard her as an ignorant child at all.
"...Zhuang Gong Mengdie?"
Gu Qingcheng muttered silently.
She stretched out her right hand and flipped it forward and backward in mid-air.
The skin on the back of the hand is very dark and the palm is relatively soft. There is only a thin layer of callus on the index finger and middle finger, which is left behind by holding a pen and writing for a long time.
The bright sunlight danced in the palm of my hand, stinging my eyes.
pain?
Gu Qingcheng squinted her eyes, so she was not dreaming.
So, she really went back to her childhood?
Bringing back the soul through a dead body?
No, this body is very familiar to her.
Even if she didn't look in the mirror and couldn't see her face, she could only look at her hands and feet and the bamboo slips spread out on the stone table, and she could be sure that——
This is her!
Aqing of the Gu family.
Yes, Ah Qing, her real name is Gu Qing, the title of "Gongqing from generation to generation" was obtained by her princess Aniang herself.
Her parents' expectations were simple and direct, hoping that she would be prosperous and wealthy throughout her life.
Subsequent facts proved that Aniang had not given her the wrong name, and she had indeed become the most noble woman in the world, respected by her husband, filial to her children and grandchildren, rich in life, and honored in death.
However, she got the name Gu Qingcheng for herself when she was a hairpin girl.
It’s not that she lives up to her name, but that she is self-deprecating about being “open-minded”——
"There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent; once she looks at the charming city, she looks at the charming country again."
The word "Qingguoqingcheng" is used to describe a peerless beauty, but she, Gu Qing, is an ugly girl with talent but no beauty.
After her death, the history books will probably write something like this: Queen Shengde, the daughter of the Gu family in Wu County, was talented and intelligent, with many talents, but had a yellow head and a black face...
Ugly!
Comparable to Queen Qi Xuan.
The Gu family belongs to the Wujun clan, and they are not just rustics. From their grandfather to their father, they are all knowledgeable and world-famous celebrities.
They would not superficially despise their granddaughter (daughter) for being ugly.
They taught Gu Qingcheng since she was a child, allowing her to study and fill herself with talent and learning.
Therefore, Gu Qingcheng does not feel inferior, but she can calmly accept the ridicule of others.
In order to show that she is mentally strong enough, she even gave herself the nickname "Qingcheng".
Everyone admired her for her broadmindedness, and Gu Qingcheng also felt that she really didn't care about her appearance or the strange looks in her eyes.
Because she is excellent and does not need appearance to prove it.
Relying on her talent, knowledge, and extraordinary vision, she chose Yu Wenheng, a clan member who was not valued in the Northern Dynasty, and helped him ascend to the throne along the way.
Unifying the north and the south, reforming the civil service, expelling the Turks, and establishing the imperial examination... She helped Yu Wenheng create a prosperous age, and she also became a virtuous queen and queen mother who will go down in history.
Throughout Gu Qingcheng's life, his parents loved him, his brothers and sisters took care of him, his husband respected him, and his children and grandchildren were filial.
She has almost no regrets!
And for someone like her who has no regrets in her heart, there should be no need to be reborn.
Gu Qingcheng has determined that she is not dreaming, so in her case, she must be reborn after death.
"But I don't want to be reborn!"
Gu Qingcheng retracted her hand and lay back on the stone table. There was no surprise that she could have her life over again.
"Sanniang! Sanniang!"
At this moment, a maid came running from a distance.
She must have been so flustered that she forgot the rules for a moment and actually shouted in the yard: "Sanniang! Eldest Princess, please come over!"
Gu Qingcheng didn't react at all.
Because she didn't have to go, she also knew what A Niang asked her to do.
After confirming that she was reborn, and looking at her reading notes, she knew that she was back when she was six years old.
What major events happened this year, especially in the summer?
The powerful minister Chen Jing was in power, and his grandfather could not bear to be complicit with him, so he was framed by Chen Jing.
The mother was originally the eldest princess of Jiangling in this dynasty, but the royal family declined and the emperor was a puppet in the hands of Chen Jing, let alone a princess who had been married a long time ago?
Chen Jing forced the emperor to issue an edict. Not only did his grandfather Gu Yi's Zhongshu Order go away, but the entire Gu family was exiled to Lingnan.
The Gu family is a long-established family in the Southern Dynasties, with in-laws throughout the wealthy and powerful class.
The Gu family knew the news before the imperial edict was delivered.
Gu Qingcheng's father, Gu Yong, and his wife, Princess Jiangling, decided to flee to the Northern Dynasties with their family after urgent discussions.
Although the Southern and Northern Dynasties had been at odds with each other for hundreds of years, they were not really at odds with each other.
Especially the aristocratic families on both sides would flee to the other side once they encountered persecution in their own dynasty.
Last year, the Gu family's in-laws, the Wang family, were in trouble, and the head of the family fled to the Northern Dynasty with a few of his legitimate sons.
Gu Qingcheng's biological sister Gu Youning, the bride of the eldest son of the Wang family, left with her husband.
Not long after he fled to the Northern Dynasty, Gu Youning sent someone to deliver a letter to his family.
All was well with their family in the Northern Dynasty, and the emperor of the Northern Dynasty even gave the eldest son of the Wang family an official who would serve as a wine worshipper at Guozi Temple.
The rank is not high, but it is noble and noble, which is also consistent with the status of the son of Langya Wang.
Following the example of the Wang family, Gu Qing's parents planned to go to the Northern Dynasties as well.
Gu Yi couldn't leave his hometown.
The Gu family is different from the Wang family.
The Wang family is a northern gentry who moved south, and when they went to the Northern Dynasties, they were "returning to their homeland."
The Gu family is an authentic southern aristocratic family. Generations have grown up here, and their ancestral graves and ancestral halls are also here.
Of course, Gu Yi is not a rigid or pedantic person, so he decided to divide his troops into two groups:
The eldest son Gu Yong led his family to flee to the Northern Dynasty, while he and several old servants stayed in the Southern Dynasty.
As for being exiled to Lingnan, then be exiled!
Gu Yi traveled around to study when he was young, and also went to the South of the Five Ridges.
He is not as afraid of Lingnan as a tiger like the common people.
Now that I am in exile, I should travel again and taste the freshness and sweetness of lychees.
Gu Qingcheng remembered clearly that in her previous life, she, her brother, her cousins, etc., followed her father, and under the protection of Qu Zhong at home, they escaped from Jiankang overnight and went straight to the Northern Dynasties.
After going to the Northern Dynasties, Gu Qingcheng started to follow the path of Qingyun.
...The same thing happened again in this life, but Gu Qingcheng was not interested.
"I really don't want to be reborn!"
There is no regret, no unwillingness, is it just following the pattern of the previous life and walking the same road again?
What else does that mean?
"Do you really have no obsession in your heart?"
A strange voice suddenly sounded in Gu Qingcheng's ears.
If Gu Qingcheng had been to future generations and listened to e-books, he would have known that they were mechanical sounds.
who?
Who is speaking?
Gu Qingcheng was suddenly shocked, but her many years of experience in the former court and harem had made her extremely calm and extremely cautious.
She didn't yell or even look around.
She rolled her eyes slightly and looked around without any trace.
Except for her two maids and the reckless maid who ran and shouted, there was no one else.
"No need to look for it! You can't see mine." The mechanical sound sounded again.
Gu Qingcheng became increasingly vigilant.
She did not speak, but asked silently with her brain: "Who are you? A ghost or a goblin?"
As a scholar, Gu Qingcheng firmly believed that "the son does not speak, the strange power confuses the gods".
But the sudden voice in her head caused her consciousness to collapse.
"I am neither a ghost nor a demon, I am the system. You can name me, or you can just call me system!"
xitong?
Which two words?
Why is it weird?
"Oh, don't worry about me. Let me ask you, did you really have no regrets in your last life?"
"If you have to start your life over again, don't you really want to have a different life?"
The system continued to use a mechanical voice, but there was a hint of confusion in its tone.
Did you really have no regrets in your previous life?
Gu Qingcheng reached out and touched his sparse and yellow hair, then looked at his dark hands.
"I want to become beautiful! The kind of beauty that can captivate a country and enchant all living beings! Can you help me do it?"
"Yes! As long as you bind me and complete the task as required, you can achieve your wish!"
"...Okay! I do!"
Although unknown things are full of risks, since she is reborn, she will live a carefree and unrestrained life. This chapter has been completed!
