She is a mad villain and it is hard to tell whether she is good or evil

"Someone, carry the princess down." The woman was afraid that if she continued watching, she would become soft-hearted.

He took his red tasseled spear and put on his armor, then kissed Shen Ruo's little face reluctantly.

Shen Ruo seemed to have noticed something and immediately started crying loudly, unwillingly pulling at the corner of the woman's clothes.

"Good boy, live well."

In the tenth year of Zhenghe, Princess Nanyue put on armor and went to the battlefield. The war lasted for five years.

In the end, the Yue Kingdom won a great victory, but the eldest princess Nanyue died of her injuries. Before her death, she signed a contract with the Tuoba tribe that they would not invade the Yue Kingdom's borders for the next hundred years.

The eldest princess's husband, who was deeply in love with her, also committed suicide along with the princess, leaving behind a poor orphan girl, Gu Zhen, who was raised by the empress dowager.

Ten years later, at a banquet in the royal palace, a little girl with bright eyes and bright teeth sat upright in the hall, looking down at everyone.

"I heard that your country's Princess Mingyue is extremely talented and the Tuoba royal family came here to ask for her hand in marriage."

A man from another race placed his hand on his chest and bowed respectfully, but his eyes were fixed on Gu Zhen who was sitting on the seat, without any respect at all.

The Emperor of Yue Kingdom also looked displeased. The princes beside him noticed this and some of them stood up and directly refuted.

"Princess Mingyue is the pearl of our Yue Nation. How can you paint her like her?"

"A group of barbarians, are you worthy?" said the youngest prince.

"My son, please don't be rude." The emperor on the throne said in a pretended reproachful manner.

"My son, you are still young. I'm sure the envoy won't bother with you."

This compliment was placed on the Tuoba envoy's head, forcing him to give up.

Gu Zhen, who was sitting on the seat, watched the farce below with an expressionless face. The empress dowager beside her glanced at her worriedly, and was relieved to find that there was nothing wrong with her.

"We are ordered by Emperor Tuoba to marry Princess Mingyue as the eldest concubine of the Tuoba royal family. We hope that Emperor Yue will agree." The messenger stepped forward and said again.

"Most of the people in Yue Kingdom are weak and frail. If His Majesty the Emperor does not want any more disputes on the border, I hope you will agree." Envoy Tuoba's poor Central Plains dialect made many people dissatisfied.

There was even a threat in his words, which aroused dissatisfaction among the people present. They all frowned. This envoy of the Tuoba tribe was really tactless.

The Emperor of Yue Kingdom also frowned. This man was pestering them and they couldn't just drag him down and execute him. That would affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries, which would be troublesome.

"Princess Mingyue is still young, and women from our Yue Kingdom will never marry foreign princes. This is the rule set by the late emperor." A man spoke up to ease the atmosphere.

However, the envoy was relentless and insisted on marrying Princess Mingyue, saying that it was an honor for Princess Mingyue to marry Emperor Tuoba.

He kept chattering and didn't take Yue Kingdom seriously at all.

"Sir Minister of Justice, what is the crime for disrespecting the princess?" Shen Ruo sat on a high seat, staring coldly at the envoy who was speaking and said something inexplicable.

"Those with lighter offenses will be flogged, and those with serious offenses will be beheaded." The Minister of Justice at the side touched the sweat on his forehead and said hurriedly, if he had known earlier, he would not have come today, and would not have called his name for no reason.

It was the old man, the Minister of Works, who was sober and took leave early. It was a pity that he was dragged into such a dispute at his age.

After saying that, Gu Zhen slowly pulled out a knife from the guard beside her, and everyone looked at her curiously.

The empress dowager also looked worried and wanted to say something, but the emperor stopped her. At this moment, the emperor looked at her figure with nostalgia in his eyes.

Envoy Tuoba watched Gu Zhen slowly approaching him with a knife in his hand, arrogance still evident in his eyes.

"Women of the Moon Country are always delicate, Princess, be careful not to hurt your hands."

The tone of his voice was even more disdainful, and he didn't take Gu Zhen seriously at all.

The envoys around saw Gu Zhen coming with a knife and wanted to comfort him, but before they could say anything, Gu Zhen stabbed the chattering envoy in the stomach.

"This knife is your way of looking down on the people of the Moon Country."

"This blow is your disrespect to the Moon Kingdom's royal family."

"This knife is because you dare to look directly at this princess."

"This knife is for daring to offend the territory of my Moon Nation!"

Gu Zhen stabbed him with his sword for every word he said, and he did not stop until the Nano envoy died.

He looked coldly at the other envoys who were being held down, his face full of disdain.

"How can we, the Yue Kingdom, a great country, be afraid of barbarians like you?"

"It's just some stuff from the backwoods."

"You are not worthy of shouting in front of this princess."

"There are so many talented people in my Yue country, how can you, a bunch of scoundrels, dream of that?"

"If you want to enter the border of our Moon Country, it depends on whether our soldiers are willing! Whether our Dawn people agree or not!"

"You are so rude, don't you take the Yue Kingdom's royal family seriously?" Gu Zhen asked loudly, leaving the envoy who was pinned to the ground unable to refute.

Although they looked down on the Yue Kingdom's royal family, they could not say it openly, otherwise it would cause conflicts between the two countries and they would be the sinners in the middle.

"Your Majesty, we don't mean that." An envoy hurriedly explained.

"What's your intention? You came to the Moon Kingdom but didn't even kowtow to our Emperor. Do you think you look down on the Moon Kingdom's royal family?"

"Are you trying to stir up a dispute between the two countries?"

The envoy wanted to explain something, but he didn't know where to start.

Seeing that things were almost going well, the emperor started to act like a good guy.

"Forget it, Zhen'er. The envoy comes from a barbarian land. I won't mind if he doesn't know the etiquette."

"Yes, Zhen'er will listen to your uncle and not bother with people from such a small place."

Seeing that the emperor had loosened his grip, the men who were holding the envoy also released him.

But the faces of the envoys who were released were very ugly. The Emperor of Yue Kingdom meant that they were ignorant and uncultured, and they were people from this small place.

The two men sang the same tune, making the Tuoba envoy's face turn pale and blue in anger.

But they didn't dare to refute now. The body of the last person who provoked them had been taken away, and there was still a faint smell of blood around him.

He must go back to the Tuoba tribe to report this matter and teach them a lesson.

Although there were some minor conflicts during the process, the banquet ended without any major incidents.

In the Empress Dowager's palace, the Emperor was talking to her.

"Mother, Zhen'er and my sister are becoming more and more alike." Huangdi had a slightly sad look on his face.

The Queen Mother also sighed.

"My son, the Tuoba clan will not let this go so easily."

"Your sister almost killed Emperor Tuoba at that time. They are so ambitious that they will never forget this." The Queen Mother wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Don't worry, mother. Your son will not use Mingyue as a tool for marriage." The emperor said with determination in his eyes.

Ten years ago, their country was weak and he had already lost an elder sister.

He will always remember that his elder sister was covered in blood with a big hole in her chest, and that her loving brother-in-law committed suicide beside her. After that day, he vowed to take good care of Xiao Mingyue.

"If there is a war, how many soldiers will die?" The Queen Mother shook her head and sighed.

The emperor's eyes turned cold and he left without saying anything.

In Princess Mingyue’s mansion, Gu Zhen was practicing sword skills. What a heroic girl she is.

Many of the maids and servants around her looked at her infatuatedly. She took the handkerchief handed to her by the maid next to her and wiped the sweat off her face.

Although Shenruo has lost her memory in this body, she still does things in her own style, planning and acting calmly.

The rapid development of Yue Kingdom in recent years is inseparable from her contribution, and she will never put herself in a weak position.

On the other side, Qin Wuran also entered the body of a baby, but she brought her memories with her.

The same scene as Shen Ruo was repeated, but she didn't understand the twists and turns.

With the favor of the emperor and the empress dowager, as well as her mother's connections, she had everything she wanted in Yue Kingdom.

She didn't know why she was in the baby's body. For the past ten years, she had been sending people to search for the magic harp in the Moon Kingdom, thinking that this would help her find the magic harp.

It cost a huge amount of money and wasted people's time and energy, and many people had complaints, but because she was favored by the emperor, no one impeached her.

"I heard that your country's Princess Mingyue is extremely talented and beautiful, so the Tuoba royal family has come to propose to marry her." The Tuoba envoy said the same words, but this time few people stood up to rescue her.

The emperor still looked displeased, and the people beside him had no time to stand up and refute.

Qin Wuran was the first to stand up: "Who the hell are you to deserve this?"

His expression was arrogant and rude, and his words were full of contempt, which made those who wanted to stand up and refute him stunned.

The emperor frowned even more, his expression looking a little ugly. Although his niece usually did things irrationally, she was her sister's only child. As long as she didn't make any big mistakes, he was willing to cover for her.

But at this moment, her words were intended to provoke disputes between the two countries, which undoubtedly made him look a little embarrassed.

"Princess Mingyue, please don't be rude." The emperor said lightly.

Everyone around him noticed his anger and didn't dare to speak.

When Qin Wuran heard him say this about herself, her eyes immediately turned red. She returned to her seat without saying a word.

She felt more and more that her uncle, the emperor, was ungrateful. She had only said a few words.

When the envoy saw the emperor like this, he felt that it was not impossible for Princess Mingyue to marry into their Tuoba royal family.

So he continued to stir up trouble, saying: "Princess Mingyue's words are surprising, our emperor is sincerely asking for marriage."

"Princess Mingyue, are you trying to stir up a dispute between the two countries by saying this?"

After hearing the envoy's words, Qin Wuran knew that she could not say anything more, otherwise she would be the sinner who provoked the dispute between the two countries.

Qin Wu Ran stared at the envoy who was speaking viciously. She memorized his appearance in her heart and decided to take his head after the banquet.

The banquet ended in a bad mood, but few people stood up to speak for Qin Wuran.

Instead, they all advised the emperor to marry Princess Mingyue into the Tuoba royal family. The emperor had a gloomy face but did not say anything.

I just said that I would consider it. After all, a woman can solve the war, so why do we need all these soldiers?

"Uncle Emperor, do you really want me to marry into that bitter and cold place?" Qin Wuran said pitifully with tears on her face.

"Have you forgotten what my mother said?"

"Are you worthy of my mother?"

The accusatory words made the emperor, who was already feeling very guilty, look gloomy.

"I still need you to teach me how to do things."

"Mingyue, you are really becoming more and more unruly."

Seeing that the emperor was angry, Qin Wuran quickly knelt down.

"Uncle, I know I was wrong."

Seeing Qin Wuran's face full of tears, the emperor couldn't bear it anymore and asked the nanny to teach her the rules and not let her go out.

Qin Wuran, who was leaving, saw that the emperor was planning to marry her into the Tuoba royal family, so she decided to go all out.

Kill those envoys directly, thus eliminating the possibility of her marrying into the Tuoba royal family.

So she whispered a few words to the palace maid beside her, and the palace maid looked embarrassed.

Qin Wu Ran slapped her in the face and said that she was a slutty servant who was ungrateful to her.

The palace maid kept admitting her mistakes and said that she knew she was wrong.

Qin Wuran was about to say something when he saw the nanny sent by the emperor coming.

He quickly restrained his expression and bowed respectfully to the nanny.

Looking at the pitiful little palace maid, the nanny didn't know what to say. She sighed and had to leave with Qin Wuran.

Three days later, Tuoba envoy died in his own tent. After investigation, it was found that Princess Mingyue had hired someone to kill him.

Princess Mingyue took the money and went to a place that specialized in assassinations, and found someone to assassinate the Tuoba envoy.

As for why he was discovered, it was all because the killer did things dishonestly and left something behind. When he was caught, he confessed everything.

The emperor was furious and punished Princess Mingyue by putting her in solitary confinement and not allowing her to leave without permission.

Qin Wu Ran angrily smashed several sets of tea sets. She hadn't even started to do anything yet, but someone already blamed her for this.

"Who is it?"

"Who is against this princess?"

There was the sound of a bunch of porcelain pieces breaking with a crackling sound, and the palace maid serving on the side was so terrified that she didn't dare to speak.

"Snapped!"

Qin Wuran slapped her in the face, and the little palace maid quickly knelt down and admitted her mistake.

"Princess, please spare my life. Princess, please spare my life."

The little palace maid kowtowed helplessly, and soon her forehead was bleeding.

"Is it you? Is it you?"

"Did you do it?"

"I have only said this to you!"

Qin Wuran was like a fierce ghost, his hands tightly pinching the little palace maid's neck. The little palace maid was unable to struggle and died soon after.

Seeing that the little palace maid had stopped moving, Qin Wuran screamed in fright.

"I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it."

"You died because of your own failure."

"Who asked you to betray me?"

The nanny who was guarding outside saw this scene as soon as she opened the door.

She was so frightened that her face turned pale. She had never expected that a princess of noble birth could be so cruel.

"Mammy, I didn't mean it, Mammy." Qin Wuran held the mammy's hand pitifully.

"Princess, even so you shouldn't be so careless about human life." The nanny sighed. When the emperor sent her here, she knew that this was not a good job.

"Mammy, please don't tell my uncle, or he will marry me into the Tuoba clan."

"I was just scared, so I didn't control my strength, Mammy." Qin Wu Ran kept pulling the mammy's hand and begging.

In the end, the nanny agreed not to report the matter to the emperor.

Qin Wu Ran was very grateful and said that the nanny was a good person.

Although she is usually a bit arrogant and domineering, this is the first time she has killed an innocent person.

By the time the maids had cleaned up everything around, there was no trace of the bloodshed that had just occurred in the entire palace.

Qin Wu Ran was lying on the couch, her mind full of thoughts. This nanny actually knew her secret.

Then she couldn't stay, so she took out a gold hairpin from the box.

"Xiaoyu, come in." A palace maid walked in tremblingly.

"The county lord."

"Go put this in Nanny Fang's room."

"Princess..." The little palace maid looked embarrassed.

Qin Wuran's eyes were filled with ruthlessness, and he slapped the little palace maid in the face.

She has been doing well for decades and no one has ever dared to disobey her. These despicable people are simply courting death.

"If you don't let me in, I will sell you out."

"Kill your family as well."

"Please have mercy, Princess. I'll go right away." Xiaoyu covered her face and ran away with the hairpin.

A quarter of an hour later, Qin Wuran was furious in the house, saying that he had lost something and wanted to search everyone's room.

Everyone was gathered in the front yard. Although Princess Mingyue could not go out, she could walk around in her own Princess Mansion.

So a golden hairpin was found in Nanny Fang's room, and Nanny Fang was stuffed with a cloth strip and forced to kneel on the ground.

"Someone, come and beat to death this lowly slave who stole my princess's jewelry!"

"It's a shame that the princess treats you so well. You are a bunch of ungrateful people."

Qin Wuran looked arrogantly at Nanny Fang who was kneeling on the ground. Nanny Fang's eyes were full of disbelief. She didn't expect Qin Wuran to be so cruel.

Although Qin Wuran beat Nanny Fang to death with a stick, the matter eventually reached the emperor's ears.
