Chapter 2587: The World Was Too Vast
Chapter 2587: The World Was Too Vast
Ning Shu didn’t really like interstellar planes. The world was too vast, and the distance between planets was not reachable by car, much less by foot.
There were many things that could not be accomplished by one’s own efforts.
She would rather have a smaller world background.
Ning Shu opened her eyes to see a simple and elegant canopy. There were embroidered flowers on the bed, not the flashy kind but rather pink and white, appearing very refined.
“Third Miss, you’re awake.” A girl dressed like a servant walked in carrying a copper basin with a cleaning cloth draped over its edge.
Ning Shu made a sound of agreement, allowing the maid to help her wash up.
As she looked at the decorations around her, she came to the conclusion that she was probably a young miss from a wealthy family this time.
After her face was cleaned, Ning Shu said to the maid, “You can go now.”
“Miss, I need to help you with your hair and makeup. If you’re late, Mr. Liu will punish you,” said the maid.
“Alright.” Ning Shu allowed the little maid to do her hair and makeup as she began receiving the storyline.
She had to know the storyline. Based on the background she’d seen so far, it seemed like a household conflict-type story.
In ancient times, the women in the back courtyard struggled for their husband’s love and power within the residence
Ning Shu needed to know the identity of the body she was in.
The original host’s name was Lu Yueyun. Her father was a military minister of the standard class, rank 2. He was of pretty high status.
However, Lu Yueyun was a concubine’s daughter and was the third daughter.
In reality, she was just a passerby in the story, a cannon fodder caught up in the struggle between the concubines and the legitimate wives.
The protagonist was Lu Junning, the second daughter.
She had gone through a rebirth and came back into this world with endless hatred.
In her previous life, Lu Junning had become the second prince’s primary consort and helped the second prince defeat the crown prince. They eventually defeated all the competitors vying for the throne, and he became the emperor, while she became the empress.
However, the second prince had an affair with her concubine-born older sister. It turned out that they had been together since a long time ago and that the second prince had only married her to use her family’s power.
She had tirelessly helped the second prince scheme his way to obtaining the throne, but as soon as he ascended to the throne, he ended up deposing her as his empress and instead crowned her half-sister as the new empress.
The despicable man didn’t spare even their children, killing his own son with his own hands.
Lu Junning helplessly watched as her son died before her eyes. She was then brutally executed by being chopped into pieces. During her last moments, she deeply regretted. She should never have asked her family to give up their military power for the sake of solidifying the despicable man’s position.
Her entire extended family was also executed on charges of treason and collaboration with the enemy. It was all so ridiculous.
In her dying moments, Lu Junning swore: If there was a next life, she would make them pay in blood!
After death, Lu Junning was reborn. She was back in the time before she had been married to the despicable prince.
She watched as the lowly concubine who had taken her mother’s place tried to raise herself to the status of being the legal wife. As if she would allow that to happen in this life!
Then there was that despicable woman who had incited the scumbag to kill her son, then stole her position as queen.
This time, she was going to make them suffer until they wished they were dead. That scumbag should give up on ever becoming emperor.
Thanks to her prophetic abilities, Lu Junning began to plan things meticulously. With flying colors, she defeated the mother-daughter duo in the inner courtyard and purposefully targeted the scumbag prince, ensuring that he would never become emperor in this lifetime.
She had originally already given up on love, but in this life, she met a man who was deeply loyal and loving.
His love slowly softened her heart.
In the previous life, the original host, Lu Yueyun, had not been involved in the struggle between these two women.
When Lu Junning was deposed as empress and Lu Mingxuan became empress, Lu Mingxuan bestowed a marriage on the original host.
The original host married into a marquis’s residence and was even married to the eldest son, the one who was set to inherit the title in the future.
In Lu Junning’s eyes, Lu Mingxuan and the original host were on the same side. Even if Lu Yueyun had not done anything to hurt her, she was a fickle opportunist who wanted to benefit from both sides.
After being reborn, Lu Junning and Lu Mingxuan fought heatedly.
