Happy life in the world of film and television

Chapter 1422 Princess Roujia: I want to become the empress

"Guo Juli..."

"She is Mu Zhuohua's most personal maid."

Jiang Chen's eyes fell on Guo Juli, and relevant information emerged in his mind.

Guo Juli is two years younger than Mu Zhuohua. She originally had no name, but because she was born with supernatural powers, she was nicknamed Juli. After being called so many times, it became her name. She was sold to the Mu family when she was young. After Mu Zhuohua's mother passed away, Mu Zhuohua lived with her and never treated her as a maid but as his own sister.

Guo Juli was born with supernatural power and an amazing appetite. He was often bullied because of his greed. In the play, Guo Juli was found out for helping Mu Zhuohua to keep watch. She would rather be beaten than betray Mu Zhuohua. Later, Mu Zhuohua asked her mother to ask the eldest lady for Guo Juli. Other masters would be harsh on their servants, but Mu Zhuohua was just the opposite. He deducted his own food to feed the little maid.

Guo Juli also particularly admired Mu Zhuohua. In her opinion, her daughter was the smartest, and she just had to follow her steps. Mu Zhuohua witnessed her biological mother being depressed every day because of his father's indifference, and died at a young age. She believed that a girl's life would be over once she got married, but her family took the initiative to marry her to the county magistrate Zhuang.

In order to avoid marrying County Magistrate Zhuang, on the day when her father married his eighteenth concubine, the master and servant fled to Dingjing to take the imperial examination. If they passed the examination, their family would not force them to marry. They did not expect that Dingjing would cost so much, and the money they brought could not support them for too long. If they were not qualified, they tried hard to find ways to make money to support Guo Juli and not let him worry about money...

"I have to say that Mu Zhuohua is good to Guo Juli."

"In the finale, Guo Juli finally married Liu Yan's follower Zhimo."

"However, as a personal maid, in the historical background of Nanchen, Guo Juli couldn't even be Liu Yan's concubine. Isn't this a lack of recognition of her status?"

"After all, Liu Yan's follower is also a villain."

In the play, Guo Juli was born with supernatural powers. However, Long Aoyi's personal maid Xiaoqin, Sun Sanniang, and Wu Yaoguang from Bianjing City in Tianqiong Continent were all born with supernatural powers.

I have to say that there are quite a few female characters in film and television dramas who possess natural supernatural powers.

"According to the situation in the drama, what Mu Zhuohua and Guo Juli lacked after arriving in Dingjing was money. Maybe we can find a breakthrough from this aspect."

Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze.

"Husband?" Sun Sanniang seemed to feel Jiang Chen's gaze.

"Let's go in first." Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Sun Sanniang didn't say much after hearing this.

Soon, Jiang Chen and Sun Sanniang entered Dingjing.

"Let's buy a house first." Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Sun Sanniang responded.

An hour later, Jiang Chen and Sun Sanniang found a pawnshop and bought a house with five courtyards.

"Sanniang, go buy some servants. I'll go look somewhere else." Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Sun Sanniang nodded.

After separating from Sun Sanniang, Jiang Chen came to the princess's mansion.

"Princess Roujia...a princess who wants to be an empress."

"I don't know what it is like."

Jiang Chen's figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.

After entering the princess's mansion, Jiang Chen quickly found Princess Roujia.

Almost at the same time, the system prompt sounded.

"Sign in."

Jiang Chen thought silently in his heart.

[Congratulations to the host, you have signed in successfully and received ten medium-grade spirit stones. ]

"Ten middle-grade spirit stones?"

"This is the twentieth time I signed in."

"Okay, although there are quite a few mid-grade spirit stones now, it is not difficult to get mid-grade spirit stones by trading in the Tiannan Continent of the Fourth World, but the more the better."

“It would be nice to check in a few more times.”

"I wonder what I'll sign next time?"

At this moment, Jiang Chen looked at the signing hostess.

Princess Roujia (Liu Roujia), a character in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

In the play, she is 24 years old, the eldest daughter of Emperor Liu Ju of Nanchen. Roujia appears to be dignified and kind, caring about the world, but in fact she is dark, resolute, persistent and ruthless. After witnessing her mother's tragic death when she was young, she no longer believed in the so-called love in the world. In her eyes, only power is the most credible. She firmly believes that if she wants to completely control her own destiny, she must ascend to the highest position, and she will never regret it until her death.

"Princess Roujia in "The Brilliant Romance"."

"Liu Roujia."

In the play, Princess Roujia, who lost her mother at a young age, was sent to Jiangnan by the emperor and raised by her aunt. Her life among the common people did not make her feel self-pitying, but instead led her to the path of a philanthropist.

Taking advantage of her status as a princess, Liu Roujia opened many charity halls. Not only did she help homeless orphans survive, she also provided free education opportunities for children from poor families, regardless of gender. As long as she met a child who wanted to learn to read and write, she would be happy to help him. She would also actively encourage ambitious children from poor families. The number one talent, Shen Jinghong, was able to continue his studies because of her kindness.

Princess Roujia's efforts for Jishantang made Mu Zhuohua more determined to stand out. After entering the officialdom, Princess Roujia also became one of the guiding lights for her breakthrough. Mu Zhuohua was determined to take the imperial examination and become an official. At first, she just wanted to change her fate as a woman who was arranged and controlled by the harem for herself. However, Princess Roujia's efforts for the poor people made her realize the responsibility and commitment of being an official.

From working for herself to working for the people, Princess Roujia indirectly gave Mu Zhuohua, who was working hard to climb the officialdom, the right direction for growth.

People work for themselves, and emotions depend on it. As the heroine, Mu Zhuohua once fought for herself, worked hard to do good deeds, and helped Princess Roujia from a poor family. Obviously, it is impossible that she only has righteousness and no selfishness. Her selfishness is to accumulate prestige among the people and influence among poor students. Her goal is to become an empress. She has the ambition of Wu Zetian, but she has more chips to compete for the throne than Wu Zetian.

Because there had been female emperors in Nanchen's history.

The empress opened the imperial examination for women for the first time. Although the imperial examination for women was abolished after the death of the empress, the secular world still did not give women equal rights, but it also gave Mu Zhuohua an opportunity. Under the promotion of the male protagonist Liu Yan and the current emperor, the imperial examination for women was restored. Mu Zhuohua seized this opportunity and was able to climb up with difficulty.

The precedent of female emperors and the imperial examinations for women are precisely favorable conditions for the birth of a new female emperor. With the glorious history of predecessors and women gradually entering officialdom, it is not an exaggeration to say that a female emperor will emerge, right?

Therefore, the princess's ascension to the throne would not be more difficult for the world to accept than her great-grandmother's enthronement as emperor.

Princess Roujia's ambition to become an emperor began with the hatred of witnessing her mother's murder. Although she was born out of revenge, she also acquired the vision and foresight to support the emperor's duties after years of training. She realized early on that the gentry had a monopoly on officialdom, and she supported poor students, providing talents for her country and also helped herself. Her actions were selfish, but beneficial to herself and the country, and she had the spirit of an emperor.

More importantly, perhaps in order to improve the status of women, she also highly appreciated and guided Mu Zhuohua, the first female official after the restoration of the imperial examination system for her children, and made great contributions to the development of women's abilities and the improvement of their status.

The charity hall she founded with all her heart and soul helped many poor people. Objectively speaking, her reputation in the entire royal family might even surpass that of her father in terms of people's love. An excellent emperor would never be a naive person, and an outstanding politician would definitely not have a simple heart. In terms of ambition, Roujia's purpose has not been fully exposed, but she has already demonstrated her superb skills.

She knows how to identify and employ people, and both Mu Zhuohua and Shen Jinghong are impressed by her charm.

She will also seize all resources, and her ex-husband who has "died in battle" is a typical example. On the surface, Princess Roujia is deeply in love with her husband and stares at his portrait all day long, missing him. In fact, she is always creating a love-crazy persona.

Of course, Liu Roujia achieved three goals with one stone by doing this.

The first is to deal with Shen Jinghong's love and prevent him from expressing his feelings for her, because Roujia wants to cultivate Shen Jinghong to be an official who can help her, not a suitor who spends all his thoughts on marrying the princess. The second is to prevent the emperor from marrying her again. Once the princess marries, it will be very difficult for her to fight for the throne again. The third is to hang the prince consort who is still alive in secret, because Princess Roujia's former prince consort actually colluded with the queen mother and killed tens of thousands of soldiers. She did not love him, but wanted to use him to deal with the queen mother.

"In film and television dramas, there are very few female emperors except Wu Zetian."

"In 'The Legend of Zhuo Zhuo', Mu Zhuohua is the heroine. If Liu Roujia becomes the empress, then Liu Roujia will become the number one heroine."

"but……"

Jiang Chen's figure flashed and appeared in front of Liu Roujia.

"Who?" Liu Roujia was shocked.

"Greetings, Princess." Jiang Chen bowed.

Da da da.

The sound of footsteps came.

A team of guards appeared. "Princess, I have no ill intentions." Jiang Chen said.

"Who are you?" Liu Roujia asked.

"I am Jiang Chen, and I came to see you today." Jiang Chen chuckled and said, "As for the purpose of coming to see the princess, it is for the princess's ambition."

Liu Roujia looked at Jiang Chen expressionlessly.

"Princess, you should let your people go down first, and then we can talk." Jiang Chen said.

"Princess..." Man'er looked at Liu Roujia worriedly.

Jiang Chen didn't say anything, but looked at Liu Roujia.

Liu Roujia looked at Jiang Chen and said, "You go down first."

"Princess?" Maner hesitated.

"Go down." Liu Roujia's tone left no room for doubt.

"Yes."

Maner responded and left with her maids.

"Princess, you are so brave. I thought you didn't dare to talk to me alone." Jiang Chen found a place to sit down.

"Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?" Liu Roujia said.

"I know where Xue Xiaotang is." Jiang Chen said.

The princess's fiancé, Xue Xiaotang, was once a general whose status and reputation were no less than that of Prince Ding. However, he betrayed his beliefs and leaked military intelligence, resulting in the tragic death of 30,000 soldiers, and he himself became a captive mute slave of the enemy country.

The reason was that he was greedy and was taken advantage of by the Queen Mother.

In the play, Prince Ding is a brave and skilled prince, but he is not the biological son of the emperor, so he is regarded as a thorn in the eyes of the queen mother. Although he has always believed that the grace of raising is greater than the grace of giving birth, in fact his mother was killed by the queen mother. He has been ostracized by the queen mother since he was a child, but his reputation is gradually improving. At this time, the queen mother found Xue Xiaotang, the princess's fiancé, to deal with Prince Ding.

Xue Xiaotang's military achievements were not achieved overnight. He was aware of the serious consequences of leaking military intelligence. However, he had a weakness that was known to the Queen Mother. When Shen Jinghong became the top scholar, he was almost granted marriage as a consort. Marrying a princess means only an empty position. Even if Shen Jinghong is willing, Xue Xiaotang may not agree, so he took a risk. In the court, no one can match him. There are constant wars. Even if he becomes a consort, he will not lose power. However, he never expected that he would suffer such humiliation and become a mute slave under the third prince of Beiliang. For a general, what a shame!
Xue Xiaotang also did not realize that what seemed to be a transaction was actually a carefully designed scam. Many years later, the Beiliang people once again used him to try to influence the court, in fact, it was because he had the flame of revenge in his heart.

Therefore, he chose to endure it silently. The Queen Mother was well aware of this and knew that Xue Xiaotang had no evidence. Therefore, she was not worried at all, but could continue to use him and guide his hatred towards Prince Ding.

"What?" Liu Roujia stood up quickly.

"Princess, calm down." Jiang Chen said.

"Where is he?" Liu Roujia asked.

"In Beiliang, I am now a mute slave under the third prince of Beiliang." Jiang Chen said.

"Mute slave?" Liu Roujia looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief.

"Yes, this is my letter of allegiance to the princess." Jiang Chen chuckled and said, "If the princess doesn't believe it, you can investigate it yourself. However, Xue Xiaotang is just a pawn of Queen Mother Nanchen."

"Tell me, what is your purpose?" Liu Roujia asked.

"The princess wants to become an empress, so I will help her become an empress." Jiang Chen said.

"Just you?" Liu Roujia glanced at Jiang Chen.

"Correct."

Jiang Chen nodded and said, "The princess's three brothers are now contenders for the throne. The eldest prince is the eldest son, but he is impulsive and narrow-minded, and his personality is very easy to be provoked. He only needs to be played around with a little trick. The only advantage of this prince is that he has an upright character and potential for growth, but in terms of current strength, he is not as good as the princess."

In the play, the eldest prince only agreed with a group of narrow-minded students because of Mu Zhuohua's female identity and political incompatibility. He is far less magnanimous than Roujia. Such an eldest prince is already the best among the three princes.

"As for the second and third princes... they are full of small schemes and have no big picture. Every day they are thinking about how to set traps for the eldest prince. They do not cultivate themselves, nor do they plan for the future of the people. If we let them ascend the throne, they will only become tyrants." Jiang Chen continued.

Liu Roujia possesses all the strategic skills, calmness and patience of an emperor.

Liu Roujia's competitors are not on the same level as her.

The competitors are too weak and the princess is too strong. Is it feasible to let her become the empress?
That's great.

From any perspective, Roujia is the undisputed choice to succeed the emperor.

Glancing at Liu Roujia, Jiang Chen continued, "But all this requires a premise. Princess Roujia, you are one of the heirs. Unfortunately, even though there has been a precedent of an outstanding empress loved by the people, even though Princess Roujia's strength, reputation, and vision crushed her three younger brothers, in the minds of others, no one has thought of giving you the right to inherit the throne."

"Why don't I have the right of inheritance?" Liu Roujia asked.

"Because..." Jiang Chen explained the reason.

Jiang Chen remembered that in the play, Liu Roujia talked with her father about her great-grandmother, the empress. They both admired this ancestor very much. Seeing her father praising the former empress so much, she took the opportunity to test it out, hoping to participate in the women's imperial examination and show her ambitions.

However, the emperor said that she was his most beloved daughter and the one he owed the most to. On the other hand, he also believed that the best hope for her was for her to live a happy life.

Obviously, the emperor never thought that realizing one's ambitions and doing things for the country and the people was the greatest support and recognition for Princess Roujia. He simply regarded her as a beloved porcelain doll and just worshipped her beautifully.

Is it ironic?

It was not that the emperor's love for his daughter was fake, nor that he did not approve of his daughter. It was purely "habit". As an emperor, even if he was more open-minded than the pedantic officials and more supportive of his children taking the imperial examinations, he still had his own limitations.

Like others, he never considered his daughter as an heir.

When everyone assumed that the princess was not the heir, wanting to be the empress was Princess Roujia's original sin.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Roujia turned evil in the play.

But is this blackening?

No.

This is Liu Roujia's struggle against her own destiny.

Liu Roujia was silent.

Is it really so?

Liu Roujia thought of her own experience.

"And I can change your situation and make you a unique empress." Jiang Chen said.

"What ability do you have to make me an empress?" Liu Roujia didn't know Jiang Chen's situation. However, Jiang Chen said so much and was able to analyze the political situation in Nanchen so clearly. It was obvious that he had good ability.

She will win over capable people.

However, this requires understanding Jiang Chen's situation clearly.

"Just because I, Jiang Chen, am the head of the Jiang family." Jiang Chen said, "As long as we reach an agreement and cooperate, then my family will help the princess become the empress."

"Jiang family?" Liu Roujia's beautiful eyes flashed.

"Princess, don't worry about it. My Jiang family is not from Nanchen." Jiang Chen said.

"Not Nanchen? Are you from the Jiang family from Beiliang?" Liu Roujia asked.

"Princess, you are joking. How can our Jiang family be from Beiliang? However, if Princess wants to know about the situation of my Jiang family, I think seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving, why don't you find some time in the next two days and go with me to see it for yourself."

Jiang Chen glanced at Liu Roujia and said, "Of course, I mean without alerting anyone. I think if the princess wants to become the empress, she wouldn't have the courage to do so, right?"

"Your provocation is useless. I need a reason that can convince me." Liu Roujia said.

"That's easy." Before Jiang Chen finished speaking, he had already disappeared from his seat...
