Chapter 1 — Female Emperor of Tran Giang Son

Eight lives ago, I helplessly watched Dai Ung's country being destroyed by eight love-obsessed royal brothers and a time-traveling woman. In order to exchange for a smile from her, the eldest brother lit a fire and led the enemy army. In order to build a so-called "amusement area" for her, the fifth royal brother forcibly collected taxes and exploited the people, causing people from three continents to rebel. Because Brother Luc wanted to watch the snow with her, he missed the war report to ask for help, causing the entire family of my ancestors, a loyalist, to die. Resurrected in his ninth life, just as his father was wasting his time inviting eight hidden emperors to come. They will teach the princes great lessons in governing the country such as king's mind magic, military tactics, and how to operate the six ministries. However, the royal brothers planned to skip class together and organize something called a "fireworks confession ceremony" for the time-traveling woman. I instinctively blocked in front of the door and begged miserably: "These are the emperors that my master has put all his heart and soul into inviting! If you don't study the emperor's art, how can you protect the Song family's inheritance?" They looked at me with pitying eyes: "Linh Huyen, you are truly unbearable, in your eyes there is only this cold throne!" "We are not puppets raised by our father for the sake of the country. We also have the right to pursue freedom. reason and love!” After saying that, they mercilessly pushed me aside and walked away. Hearing the news, my father ran over and angrily threw the tea cup: "You bastard! Does my country really have no heir left?!" Looking at the eight top emperors looking at each other, my eyes, which had been chaotic for eight lifetimes, immediately lit up in surprise. I quietly stepped forward and gently pulled on my father's dragon robe: "Your Majesty, should I... let me try?"... "Your Highness, please be careful with your words!" Tran Thai Phu frowned and frowned. "The emperor's art is related to social rules, how can a daughter of the inner palace be used as a joke?" I stood in the middle of the palace, calmly meeting the eyes of the eight emperors. "Tran Thai Phu, is there anything written in Dai Ung's law that a person carries bloodline? Can't Mrs. Tong take full responsibility for the country?" "Currently, Van Chau is facing a severe drought, the court has granted two hundred thousand taels of silver in relief, but not even half of the silver has reached the people." "Does the Grand Deputy think that human lives and the national treasury are also a joke?" Elder Tran was stunned. Obviously, he did not expect that a princess raised in the palace would know about the affairs of the previous dynasty. "So in your opinion, where is the deficit?" Mr. Chu, who is skilled in the main households, stood next to him and spoke up. I stood up straight. "The silver is exported from the national treasury, and for every door, someone keeps a portion." "If we only investigate the district official who distributed the last salary, we will only kill a few substitute goats." "If you want to investigate, you must start from the original records of the Household Ministry, compare the records stored at the prefecture and the list of people in distress." "Whose hands have passed through, at what stage is the deficiency, the investigation is know.” The main hall immediately became quiet. The eight emperors looked at each other, the contempt in their eyes had lessened a bit. But old Tran still did not immediately nod. "Checking the books is easy, touching people is difficult." "If it involves local nobles, or even important officials in the court, how will His Highness deal with it?" I looked straight into his eyes. "First collect evidence, then arrest people." "The evidence of the crime is not confirmed and you are reckless. The evidence is clear but still fearing his family background is incompetent." In the eyes of the emperor's father, a light flashed like never before. Yes. "Huyen Nhi, are all of these things... your own thoughts?" I turned around and respectfully bowed deeply to my father. "My father, I usually read a lot of random books, just casually.

Just thinking." "The royal brothers already have ambitions in the wilderness, do not want to be bound by the royal power." "I vow to replace them in following the eight emperors to study hard, to help father share his worries." The emperor looked at the empty door, his eyes reddened. "Okay!" "My princes are all trash, not as brave as my daughter!" The emperor waved his sleeve and turned to look at the eight emperors. "My darlings. Khanh, since Linh Huyen has this heart, you guys should teach her first." "As for those eight disobedient children... we still have to find a chance to give strict advice!" Tran Thai Deputy took the lead and knelt down. "The old minister obeyed!" Half an hour later, the story of the royal brothers dropping out of school spread throughout the harem. In the royal garden, the eldest brother was peeling cloth for Han Thien Thien. "I heard that the father was angry, and in the end he sent Linh Huyen to the eight old men. study." The third royal brother waved his folding fan. "Isn't that just right? With the royal sister taking care of our father, I won't have to be forced to go to school anymore." "That's right, why are those military techniques more important than being with Thien Nhi?" The fifth royal brother chimed in. Han Thien Thien took the lychee and smiled gently. "Your fifth royal highness is making fun of Thien Nhi." "Your highnesses all have God-given talents, why do you need to memorize those rigid rules?" "Rule the country based on kindness and vision, not on who can sit at the desk longer." "You were born noble, you should live freely and freely, why do you need to be tied down by old-fashioned old men?" Your royal brothers After listening, he nodded repeatedly, his eyes even more fascinated. The corners of Han Thien Thien's lips showed disdain. "I'm not like Her Highness the Princess, who can truly endure suffering." "If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to sit on that cold chair." "What's so interesting about a girl constantly fighting for power and taking advantage?" The eldest brother immediately held her hand in pain. "Thien Nhi is right, Linh Huyen only knows how to think rigidly." "If she wants to learn, just let her learn. After all, we have to get along in the future, it's good to learn a few more rules." I stood behind the fake mountain, listening to their conversation without the slightest wavering in my heart. The lessons of blood and tears in my eight previous lives had soon made me understand that speaking reason with this group of people who are confused by love is just a waste of words. I turned around and walked towards Van Hoa Palace. From today, my battlefield is on the book table, on the sand table, and on the court. 2Spring goes. When autumn came, I didn't have time to worry about what kind of banquet the royal brothers were holding for Han Thien Thien. In the first year, I followed the Emperor Tran to study the king's mind magic, and with Mr. Chu, he counted the tax records of the dynasties, and engraved every inch of Dai Ung's terrain map in my mind. In the second year, I and the emperors practiced the formation on the sand table, from defeat to victory and defeat Initially, I stood behind the pearl curtain. Later, there was a small seat for me under the dragon chair. "The princess is just a woman, how can she interfere in court affairs? This is an act of incest!" The Minister of Rites knelt in the middle of the palace to warn the cockroaches. "Ancestral rules cannot be changed! Please, Your Majesty, revoke the order!" Several old officials also knelt down in unison. His father's face was gloomy. "My eight princes did not even attend court because of a woman. Why don't you use your ancestors' rules to advise them?" The old officials immediately became speechless. Father coldly snorted and threw down a notebook. "This is the book that Linh Huyen checked in half a month, and found a deficiency of three hundred thousand taels of silver!" family

Khanh is not even as good as my daughter!" The court immediately fell silent. I lowered my head to look at the medal in my hand, not even raising my eyelids. I had long since gotten used to these gossips. Only true achievements can make everyone shut up. After the court dismissed, I returned with a stack of documents, just then saw the third royal brother coming. He was stunned. "Linh Huyen? You're carrying such a big stack of books, aren't you tired?" "I heard that you've been going to school for us recently? Those old men have a very unpleasant temper. They don't scold me, right?" Just as he was about to reach out, Han Thien Thien took his arm. "Oh, third royal highness, it seems like my leg is twisted." She coyly leaned on third royal brother's body, glancing at me. "Third royal highness, you're not the type of person who only pampers your younger sister in the legends, are you?" Seeing third royal brother's bewilderment, she pouting: "I ask you, if the princess and I fell into the river together, who would you save first?" The third royal brother immediately panicked and quickly caught her. "Of course he saved her!" "Linh Huyen has been practicing swords all day, even if she falls into the water, she can crawl out on her own." He turned his head to look at me, his eyes no longer had the slightest guilt from before. "Linh Huyen, bring it back yourself." Thien Nhi is injured, I have to take her to the Royal Hospital first." Having said that, he carefully supported Han Thien Thien, turned around and left. Han Thien Thien took two steps, suddenly turned to look at me. "You royal brothers should also pay a little attention, in the future find the princess a good house to marry." "Don't let her stay with a group of old men every day, how devalued." The third royal brother nodded repeatedly. "Thien Nhi is right. After a while, I will tell the emperor to choose a good concubine for Linh Huyen. "I watched their backs leave and couldn't help but want to laugh. Is it worthless? Wait until you all know what I have learned in the past two years, I hope you can still laugh. From then on, I buried myself in the martial arts arena. The emperor's horse whip was not merciful. I fell off the back of the galloping horse countless times, then gritted my teeth, got up and climbed up again. Finally, I was able to practice the skill of hitting hundreds of times. The sword and spear broke my hands, forming thick layers of calluses. When the royal brothers took Han Thien Thien on a boat to see the maple leaves, I practiced in the cold water, practicing in front of the sand table until dawn. Another year passed. That day, I was practicing on the sand table when a little eunuch came running. "Your Highness, there is an emergency warning!"3 "Huyen Lac." During the grand attack, the general guarding Nhan Mon Quan died in battle, a hundred thousand troops had no leader!" In the royal court, the voice of the Minister of Military Affairs was also trembling. "Your Majesty, Huyen Lac has destroyed three cities in a row. If we don't immediately provide reinforcements, Dai Ung will be in danger!" The royal father's face turned pale, looking at the eight princes standing below. "With the national disaster before us, who among you is willing to lead the troops to fight for me?" The main hall sank into deathly silence. The eldest brother bowed his head: "Father, in recent days I... have been unknowingly infected with wind and cold, I'm afraid it will be difficult to shoulder the heavy responsibility." The third royal brother stepped back. "I can discuss the war on paper. If I really go to the battlefield, I'm afraid it will ruin the big event." The fifth royal brother was even more straightforward. "Recently, Thien Nhi's health is not good, I promised to stay in the capital to take care of her..." The royal father angrily slammed the table. "Rubbish!" "What is Dai Ung raising you princes for?! I don't even have the courage to go to the battlefield!” The royal brothers looked at each other, but no one was willing to stand up.
