Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 764 Shaobai + Shaoge 1

The court was still arguing over the issue of granting land and establishing households to women. Although it seemed that this matter was the general trend, who would be willing to let others share their interests? Especially now that there was Li Xinyue, a woman from the Jianghu, who had achieved a position of the fourth rank in the court, and was in charge of the most important garrison in the imperial city, and she also led a large number of soldiers.

Li Xinyue herself is a smart and independent person, otherwise why would she leave Jianxin Tomb and stay in Tianqi City all year round to work for Xiao Ruofeng?

Now that she is the only female official in public and a military general, she must of course live up to her position and the expectations of women all over the world, so she works more conscientiously and carefully, leaving no room for anyone to complain.

The previous dynasty was still arguing about women's affairs. Ji Ruofeng and Sikong Changfeng easily found a place to open the library proposed by Jiang Xinxin, and employed the students of the Jixia Academy to copy the books in the palace and the Jixia Academy. Since the imperial examination, there was no room for rebuttal.

When Xiao Ruofeng and the court officials personally unveiled the plaque for the library, and publicly announced that each state and county could set up such a library open to all Beili people, merchants and local tyrants really gathered to respond. The court could not resist the overwhelming public opinion, and the date of the first imperial examination was set for the third year after Xiao Ruofeng ascended the throne, which was the third year of Mingde.

Speaking of which, Jiang Xinxin was somewhat familiar with the reign title of Mingde. She did not expect that the emperor had changed, but the reign title remained Mingde.

However, for Jiang Xinxin, Xiao Ruofeng is indeed more worthy of the word Mingde than Xiao Ruojin. Although Xiao Ruojin has done well overall, there is still a little gap compared to Xiao Ruofeng.

As for the tragedy of Langya King Xiao Ruofeng, Jiang Xinxin believed that it was not entirely because Xiao Ruojin was narrow-minded and suspicious. It was because Langya King Xiao Ruofeng was indeed very powerful and his reputation was even more famous than that of the emperor at that time. He was also unable to suppress people like Ye Xiaoying. It was no wonder that Xiao Ruojin had to fabricate a charge of treason.

Xiao Ruofeng chose to die, not only because he still cared about the little brotherhood between him and Xiao Ruojin, but also because he took into account the stability of the world. He also knew that he could not become a knife like Ye Xiaoying under his command to harm Beili's foundation, so he took the initiative to choose death.

And the farce that Xiao Se later created by chasing his biological father Xiao Ruojin to clear the name of King Langya was not completely useless to Jiang Xinxin. At least these young people united to make a scene and indeed cleared the name of King Langya Xiao Ruofeng. They also dispelled the "enterprising spirit" of people like Ye Xiaoying and solved a major hidden danger in the court.

However, Xiao Se finally chose to give up the throne like the King of Langya and handed it over to someone else. This was really too risky. Although it seemed that the King of Bai Xiao Chong and Xiao Ruojin did not have the same personality at that time, the King of Bai lacked some means of governing the country compared to Xiao Ruojin, and he could not even understand the confidants around him.

It is no wonder that Heaven would feel that without Xiao Ruofeng and Xiao Chuhe, the two sons of destiny, Beili’s national destiny would have been affected by nearly two hundred years.

But Jiang Xinxin was skeptical about Xiao Ruofeng's promotion.

Although Xiao Ruojin harmed his younger brother Xiao Ruofeng and his biological son Xiao Chuhe because of his similar suspicion and harshness as his biological father Emperor Tai'an, in fact, everything has a traceable cause. Xiao Ruofeng himself should not have challenged the wishes of an emperor, especially when he was familiar with the other party's nature.

In the third year of Mingde, the first imperial examination was officially opened. Before the students came to Tianqi City to take part in the palace examination, they had already passed three examinations in the county, state and province. Those who could walk to Tianqi City to take part in the palace examination were already the best of the best, and only 200 people were selected from the entire Beili territory.

These 200 people were divided into first, second and third classes based on their total scores, but they would not be appointed as officials immediately. Instead, they would be gathered together to learn some basic things in the Jixia Academy according to their personal development plans, ranging from how to write memorials and the personnel requirements of various government offices of the imperial court and government at all levels to how to govern the local areas.

Jiang Xinxin thought that she had helped Xiao Ruofeng, the son of destiny, to ascend to power, and that she would be able to leave this world smoothly. However, after spending all her energy to break through the void, she still could not leave this world. She just arrived at a different time point.

It was a sunny day just now. In the presence of Mo Yi, Qi Tianchen, Lu Suzhen, Wang Yixing, Zhao Yuzhen and Ye Dingzhi, Jiang Xinxin was about to fly away from Penglai Island. But in the blink of an eye, she found herself standing by the river under the moon.

Xiao Se, who was nearby, was wearing a cloak with a fur collar and was secretly on guard against Jiang Xinxin, the beautiful girl who suddenly appeared. On the river in the distance, Wu Xin, who was wearing a bald monk's robe, was pulling Lei Wujie, who was dressed in fiery red, and was about to help him draw out the internal force left by the white-haired immortal Mo Qixuan.

Jiang Xinxin felt familiar with this scene. When Xiao Se approached to ask about Jiang Xinxin's name and origin, Jiang Xinxin suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. She was forced to kneel on one knee by the pressure of the Heavenly Dao, and looked very painful. Xiao Se couldn't help but take a half step back, wishing he could raise his hands in surrender to prove his innocence: "Girl, your injury has nothing to do with us!"

Seeing that Jiang Xinxin was able to help the first son of destiny, Xiao Ruofeng, ascend to the throne smoothly, Tiandao brought her here, wanting her to help Xiao Chuhe ascend to the throne in order to save the precarious destiny of Beili in this world.

But Jiang Xinxin is not someone who is easy to mess with. In the previous world, she helped Xiao Ruofeng to ascend to the throne, not for the perfection of the Heavenly Dao, but because she stole the origin of the Heavenly Dao and it was just an equal exchange. Later, no matter what the reason for everything she did might be in the eyes of others, to her, it was just to repay the origin of the Heavenly Dao and the kindness of Wangcheng Mountain's education.

And she left that world by relying on her own origin to break through the shackles of heaven, but she didn't expect that heaven would take advantage of her misfortune and even imprison her in Zhao Yuanshen's body, even though her soul had already left that world!

Seeing that Jiang Xinxin's kneecap was broken and bleeding from all her orifices due to her resistance, Xiao Se didn't care about any suspicion or temptation. But when he went forward, he didn't know how to start. He cleverly discovered that there was something heavy pressing on Jiang Xinxin, so that Jiang Xinxin couldn't stand up no matter how hard she struggled.

All her pain came from resistance. Although he didn't know what she was resisting, at this moment he felt that she was very similar to himself.

The physical pain is nothing to Jiang Xinxin. The oppression on her soul will only make her more sober and more determined not to compromise.

As the body belonging to "Zhao Yuanxin" began to rot inch by inch, Jiang Xinxin was determined to destroy this world even at the cost of half of her soul, so Xiao Se, the son of destiny who was right in front of her, became Jiang Xinxin's best bargaining chip.

This was not the first time that Xiao Se had experienced the feeling of being on the verge of death. He had experienced it once a few years ago when he was ambushed outside the city of Apocalypse. But everything that happened today was too weird. Even though he had been strangled by the other party and rolled his eyes, he was still thinking that this girl was really amazing.

Wuxin, who was on the river, drew out the internal force in Lei Wujie's body that did not belong to him. He noticed the situation on Xiao Se's side with the corner of his eye. He stepped ashore in two steps and saw a girl covered in blood kneeling on the ground. She stretched out a bloody hand and strangled Xiao Se, who was squatting beside her, until he had only his last breath left.

"Miss, I'm sorry." Having said that, Wu Xin wanted to knock Jiang Xinxin unconscious first so as to save Xiao Se first and then deal with other things. However, no matter how he attacked, Jiang Xinxin didn't move at all. Instead, Xiao Se was already dying. The situation looked extremely critical.

In the end, he was closer to Xiao Se. Wu Xin gritted his teeth and was about to cut off one of Jiang Xinxin's arms when he saw Jiang Xinxin's body limp and fall to the ground. Although he didn't take off the hand that was pinching Xiao Se, he finally let go as Xiao Se fell to the ground.

He rushed to Xiao Se's rescue, helped him up, placed his hands on his back to inject his internal energy, and pressed a few major acupoints on his chest. Only then did Xiao Se breathe a sigh of relief and wake up with a cough.

Jiang Xinxin was like a pile of rotten meat, and was only breathing her last breath.
