Chapter 167: The Imperial Court’s Jade Liquid Wine



Chapter 167

The weight of history pressed on everyone\'s hearts, making them feel heavy.

Although this was not their own history, they couldn\'t help but weep when they saw the fall of a nation. At this moment, sorrow was universal.

"How could such a powerful and prosperous country also be destroyed? Is there no country that can rule for thousands of years?"

"If only I could be born in the Tang Dynasty in my next life. Women\'s status was so high in the Tang Dynasty, I\'m so envious."

"Pfft, I\'d rather be born in the future. Women\'s status is even higher in the future, and they can even have freedom in love."

"So women can really be emperors. It seems that having a woman as emperor isn\'t bad at all. At least that Wu Zetian seemed pretty good and even ushered in a golden age."

"Yeah, the main thing is that when she became emperor, she didn\'t oppress men or force them to stay indoors or anything like that. Men were still happy too. It\'s a win-win situation!"

Gu Sang, hearing that people were no longer so opposed to the idea of a female emperor, felt very gratified.

This trip to the history museum was worth it!

In fact, many ancient people were resistant to the idea of a woman becoming emperor partly because it had never happened in history, and it was seen as going against ancestral teachings.

Another reason was their longstanding belittlement of women, believing that women would only act on emotions and that the country might end up in anyone\'s hands.

But when they learned that there was actually a female emperor in history, and that she had accomplished quite a lot, their stubborn ideas were finally broken.

They realized that as long as the right person was chosen, it wasn\'t impossible for a woman to be emperor.

At least, it would be much better than those wastrel emperors of the Song Dynasty!

Those Song Dynasty wastrel emperors were not only useless but also seriously held the country back. If it had been Wu Zetian from the Tang Dynasty instead, the Jingkang Incident probably wouldn\'t have happened.

Seeing all the ancient people deep in thought, Gu Sang spoke again:

"There have been many excellent women in history. Perhaps you haven\'t noticed them, or perhaps they were hidden behind men. They didn\'t fight or grab for power, but they made outstanding contributions to the country."

"Their entire lives are summed up in just a few lines in the history books, but some of their ideas on governing the country are still being used even in later generations..."

"Of all the countries in history, every single one went from prosperity to destruction. The root cause was always that those in high positions didn\'t care about the poor common people. They fought for power and profit, only wanting to keep power firmly in their grasp."

"To change this, we must start from the fundamentals, from our concepts. The world is constantly progressing, and those outdated, inappropriate concepts should be discarded."

"In a couple, must the man always be superior? Perhaps if women were given a chance, they could prove through their actions that they have the ability to earn money, no worse than men."

"Must the position of emperor always be held by a man? I think this idea should also be changed!"

"The imperial throne should be occupied by someone capable who cares for the world! Actually, the Princess is very suitable. She not only discovered sweet potatoes and potatoes but also personally handled epidemics and disasters. You must have all heard about these things. I believe she will lead this country to prosperity!"

"Crack!"

In the great hall, Pei Changying gripped too hard, breaking off a corner of the dragon throne.

He roared in anger, like an abandoned, helpless wild beast cub.

He was afraid.

Panicked.

He began to feel uneasy, even using anger to cover up his fear: "Gu Sang! How dare you bewitch my subjects right in front of me."

"I\'ve already admitted my mistakes. Why are you being so cruel?"

Oh, oh, oh, wrong, wrong.

Back then in Xuyang Palace, when he pushed her away and said if she wanted to die, she could go ahead and die, he didn\'t seem to show any signs of admitting his mistakes.

It\'s only now that she can threaten him!

He\'s starting to regret it.

Gu Sang\'s face showed disgust: "Just because you admitted your mistakes, do I have to forgive you? If you had kept your promise, my grandmother wouldn\'t have disappeared trying to save me."

"Pei Changying, I\'ll tell you one more time!"

"I will never forgive you. Put away that self-righteous deep affection of yours."

That day\'s thoughts once again surfaced in Pei Changying\'s mind.

Grandmother!

He knew it, Gu Sang really cared about her grandmother.

His eyes flickered, and he asked calmly: "If I could help you find your grandmother, would you be able to forgive me?"

"Heh, believing your words, I\'ve been stupid enough to do that once. Oh no, I never really believed you at all. I only had to because the task required it, I had no choice but to believe you."

"My grandmother\'s matter has nothing to do with you! Don\'t try any tricks!"

Gu Sang rejected Pei Changying without even thinking. Before, she had to help Pei Changying because she had no choice.

Because Pei Changying was the chosen one recognized by the System, designated to ascend the throne, she had to pretend to be Pei Changying\'s virtuous helper, assisting him in handling various matters big and small.

Even though she understood Pei Changying\'s character and knew he was most ungrateful, with the System watching, she couldn\'t do anything detrimental to him.

Moreover, she didn\'t care about power or status at all. She wanted to go home, she really just wanted to go home!

Otherwise, when Gu Sang noticed something was wrong, she could have planned her escape while Pei Changying\'s foundation was still unstable. She could have taken control of power and completed the task long ago!

But a task is a task because it has many restrictions.

However, it\'s better now. The task is simply to livestream to ancient people and earn merit. This task is much broader and allows for free choice in who to help.

"Gu Sang, regarding your grandmother\'s matter, I owe you and her. So this time, whether you believe me or not, I will do my best to help you find your grandmother."

Pei Changying\'s heartfelt confession was met with Gu Sang turning her back on him.

What nonsense.

Even a dog wouldn\'t listen.

Still talking about whether to believe or not?

Only a fool would believe that a man who had betrayed her once would eventually treat her wholeheartedly!

Suddenly.

Gu Qing\'s voice rang out: "Gu Sang, if you don\'t say something soon, I\'m going to think you\'ve time-traveled. Do you know how long you\'ve been staring at this floor? A whole hour."

"Hey, you haven\'t been possessed, have you?"

Gu Qing walked over and waved her hand in front of Gu Sang\'s face.

Gu Sang calmly brushed aside Gu Qing\'s hand. "Let\'s go. We\'ll take a look upstairs."

Gu Qing, who enjoyed watching short videos, was reminded of novel plots she had seen. Stories about touching ancient artifacts and time-traveling, or souls transmigrating and possessing bodies. These thoughts made her imagination run wild.

She fixed Gu Sang with a mock-serious stare and asked, "Study science and math well, what comes next?"

Gu Sang: ???

Gu Qing\'s gaze grew increasingly suspicious. "It\'s a code phrase! How can a bookworm like you not know the next line? Okay, then what follows \'Palace Jade Nectar Wine\'?"

Gu Sang: "......"
