After being bound by the system, Bai Yueguang and I reunited

Chapter 449 Falling Moonlight 49

In the sixth year, there was a drought in the north, and Lelanga volunteered to go there to provide disaster relief.

It took a year to dig canals, store water, dig wells, open up trade, etc.

Before leaving, I got the Umbrella of All People.

After returning to Beijing, Lelanga was promoted to the third rank.

In the eighth year, the emperor carried out reforms. Lelanga was the first to agree and completed the task very well.

Promoted to the second rank.

In the tenth year, there was flooding in the south, and Lelanga set out again.

On the return journey, he obtained the second Umbrella of All People and was promoted to the first rank.

In the thirteenth year, the old prime minister asked to retire, and the emperor agreed after repeated attempts to retain him.

Le Langa, who had become the emperor's confidant, naturally stood in a position second only to the emperor.

In the sixteenth year, the girls trained by Lelanga have grown up and can stand on their own.

At the end of the year, someone reported that Lelanga had killed his brother and plotted for the throne, committing the crime of deceiving the emperor.

After recounting a long list of Lelanga's crimes, the person who made the complaint discovered that the court was completely silent.

The emperor at the highest point had a blank expression on his face, seemingly in a trance.

The officials standing on both sides were calm and composed. Except for the young man who had an expression of shock and surprise, the others had the same indifferent look as the emperor.

Only one defendant, Lelanga, was smiling.

What should have been a earth-shattering lawsuit ended in such an anticlimactic way.

Everyone pretended they had never heard of it and pretended not to know.

Only Lelanga changed. Except for the time when she had to wear official uniform, she wore comfortable and fitting clothes according to her own wishes. She no longer used prostheses to disguise her identity.

In response, everyone behaved as usual, as if Le Langa had been a woman ever since she passed the imperial examination.

Even the historian silently crossed out the name Li Chengsi and solemnly wrote the three words Li Chengle instead.

In the eighteenth year, a new imperial examination was started with Le Langa as the chief examiner, which was open to both men and women.

This year, a total of 198 students were on the list, including 72 women, and two of the top three were women.

In the 21st year, the emperor chose the most outstanding princess among the princes and princesses taught by Lelanga to be the crown prince. Since then, the wave of reading among women all over the world has reached a new high.

In the twenty-fifth year, Lelanga and the prince went to the battlefield together and defeated the ambitious foreigners and made them flee in all directions.

In the 30th year, the crown prince ascended the throne and became the first female emperor recorded in history.

In the thirty-third year, the emperor was seriously ill. Before his death, he called Lelanga to his side.

"Li Qing, do you regret taking this path?" The aging former emperor stared at the aged prime minister, as if he saw her when she was still young during the palace examination.

Le Langa smiled and said, "Your Majesty, do you regret being my mentor?"

The emperor was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, I have no regrets! Even if I go to the underworld, I will not let down my ancestors! I will not let down the people of the world!"

That night, the emperor died.

The emperor left with a smile.

Lelanga bowed silently before his spirit.

Thank him for his kindness.

Thank him for not treating her based on gender bias.

Thanks to his trust, tolerance and support, this beautiful story between the monarch and his ministers was made possible.

In the fortieth year, Lelanga fell ill and the emperor came to visit her in person at his residence.

Thinking about Le Langa's clean reputation throughout his life, with the only stain being the killing of his brother, the emperor hinted that he should ask the historian to erase this record, but was stopped by Le Langa.

The illness could not conceal the confidence and calmness in her eyes.

"There is no need to hide or embellish. My life is what it is. That is the path I have taken. There is nothing wrong with showing it to others."

Just like back then, she deliberately spread some news and was reported to the court.

It's nothing.

Lelanga died in a heavy snow in winter.

When she was buried, the procession was huge. It included comrades, students, and even people from the disaster-stricken areas who had traveled long distances just to see her off.

The emperor buried her in the tomb of the previous emperor. On the one hand, it was to show his favor, and on the other hand, he thought that since the monarch and his subject were close to each other, their love in this life could continue in the underworld.

After reading Lelanga's life, Jingling sighed, "At first I really didn't expect that the child who was still a little hesitant in love would have such a straightforward and broad life."

Chaoge smiled and said nothing, but from her eyes one could tell that she admired Lelanga very much.

Mirror Spirit: "But will her training be effective? Everything in the Mirror of the World is false."

"Whether it is true or false is not for you or me to say," Chao Ge said, "Only those who have experienced it firsthand can define it as true or false."

The mirror spirit hesitated, and said with concern, "I have seen many cultivators advance by truly walking around in the mortal world."

"Reincarnation and experiencing tribulations are matters for cultivators and have nothing to do with mortals. But once they enter the mortal world, they will stir up chaos and change the fate of countless mortals," Chao Ge said, shaking his head. "There are too many variables, and it is too unfair to the mortal world."

Thinking of the scenes he had seen before, such as 'the three realms will be buried with you', 'kill the whole world just for you', 'refining all living things to save you' and so on, Mirror Spirit could not help but shudder.

"you're right!"

The mirror flickered and projected the image of Lelanga.

In this life, she joined a noble family.

It is called a clear stream, but in fact it is just a good reputation.

The merits accumulated by the ancestors have long been almost exhausted by generations of incompetent descendants.

As each generation became worse than the previous one, the head of the family did not think about how to improve the abilities of the children in the family, but instead set his sights on the marriage of women.

He knew that his behavior was an act of climbing up the social ladder and would bring disgrace to the family, but he still used the excuse of loving the girl as a pretext, when in fact he had already engaged in acts of oppression and domestication.

The books that enlightened the girls in the family, no matter they were legitimate or illegitimate, were books like Women's Commandments, Women's Rules, and Biographies of Virtuous Women.

Engrave the words "loyalty and innocence" firmly in your heart and never forget them.

When Lelanga was born, she was the third daughter in the family.

When she was a child, she was quite lively and sweet-spoken, making people around her smile when they saw her.

After she started her enlightenment, studying some depressing books only made her a little depressed.

When she was six years old, her eldest sister accidentally lost her handkerchief, which was picked up by a boy from another family. She knew that the family rules were strict, and she panicked for a moment, wanting to take the handkerchief back secretly or simply destroy it.

But he was discovered by the owner of the house.

As a father, he directly threw down the white silk and asked his eldest daughter to commit suicide in order to maintain her innocence.

The elder sister was unwilling. Although she was afraid, she still wanted to live more, so she begged her father to marry her to the foreign man who picked up the handkerchief. As long as she could live, anything would be fine.

The head of the family refused coldly.

He showed no mercy and gathered all the girls in the family, including children who were only a few years old.

In front of everyone, words like dissolute, disgraceful, shameless, and without morals were thrown in the face of a teenage girl.
