I traveled with them to the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 49 Zhang Chun was attacked
...

When Zhao Ya and Empress Dowager Xiang were having a private conversation, Empress Dowager Xiang asked directly, "Is this girl really that capable?"

"When I met her for the first time, she deduced that on the Jiaxu day, an earthquake would occur in Taiyuan and the Yellow River would flow north. On the Guisi day, Taibai would be visible during the day. On the Gengzi day, the Xia people would come to apologize. She got all three of these correct," said Zhao Ya.

"This girl is indeed an extraordinary person. But where did she get all these skills?" Empress Dowager Xiang believed that Zhao Ya would not lie to her, but she still couldn't help but question Zhang Chun's ability.

"She said that a divine man entered her in her dream and taught her the art of divination. She slept for three days, and when she woke up, she could know the will of heaven and the future." Zhao Ya told Empress Dowager Xiang what Zhang Chun had lied to her.

Empress Dowager Xiang still had some doubts about Zhang Chun's ability.

But for something so mysterious that you don’t understand, the smartest thing to do is to believe it exists rather than not. What if it is true?
Therefore, Empress Dowager Xiang no longer questioned Zhang Chun's ability.

"She told me that within ten days, a major event that would affect the fate of the Song Dynasty would occur," Zhao Ya said again.

"What's the big deal?" asked the Queen Mother.

"She only said that this matter was of great importance and concerned the rise and fall and survival of the Song Dynasty, and she refused to say anything else," said Zhao Ya.

"When your son saw that she was speaking so seriously, he pressed her to ask. She said that this secret was of great importance and if it was leaked, she would be punished by heaven. If she didn't tell, it might turn the fortune of our Song Dynasty from good to bad. So your son didn't dare to ask any more questions." Zhao Ya said again.

"So serious?" Empress Dowager Xiang's expression turned serious.

"I also feel that the situation is serious, so I want her to stay with the Queen Mother."

"I am but a prince in idleness. If something serious were to happen in the Song Dynasty, I would be powerless to help."

"My mother is the backbone of our Song Dynasty. Even if a major event were to happen, she would be able to turn the tide."

At this point, Zhao Ya changed his tone and said, "It will only take about ten days to see whether what she said comes true."

Empress Dowager Xiang agreed and promoted Zhang Chun from a maid to a servant, and rewarded her with two silver ingots, two pieces of fine silk, a pair of porcelain bowls, and a jade hairpin.

These promotions and rewards don’t matter to Zhang Chun, and she doesn’t care about them.

But from being unable to make it in Cide Palace to now being promoted and rewarded, and being designated as Zhao Ya's woman, this gorgeous counterattack made Zhang Chun feel relaxed all over.

After receiving the reward, Zhang Chun smiled and accepted the congratulations and flattery from the palace maids, then walked to Ma Xiaojiao, looked at her without saying a word.

Seeing this, Ma Xiaojiao perfunctorily bowed to Zhang Chun and said, "I was wrong. Sister Chun, you have always been the one who sacrificed the most for the team. I misunderstood you. You asked me to help you get to Zhao Ya. You were giving me face. I was judging you by my own standards."

While saying this, Ma Xiaojiao thought bitterly in her heart: "If Zhao Ya hadn't supported you, your face would have become a shoe insole long ago!"

Glancing at Zhang Chun's face, Ma Xiaojiao, who knew Zhao Ya's preferences, was puzzled: "Zhao Ya shouldn't like you."

Zhang Chun took advantage and acted naively: "Jiaojiao, do you know what hurts me the most? If I hadn't guided you, you would have been like those three, like a headless fly, bumping into obstacles everywhere. You might have been trapped in this harem for the rest of your life, frustrated and eventually died in depression. But in the end, you didn't follow my footsteps, but listened to them instead. This hurts me so much."

Ma Xiaojiao's main point is her good attitude in admitting her mistakes. She said without any moral integrity: "I will listen to you, Sister Chun, from now on. Is that not enough?"

Seeing Ma Xiaojiao's statement, Zhang Chun was delighted. She took Ma Xiaojiao's hand and said, "That's right. As long as you listen to me, you can not only live a good life in this era, but also realize your ambitions. Isn't this what you are pursuing?"

Although Ma Xiaojiao still felt disgusted, she had to admit that Zhang Chun did understand this era better than the other four. She was living a better life than others because of Zhang Chun's guidance.

So Ma Xiaojiao said, "Yes, I want to promote the development of science and technology in this era. Everything else is just fine."

Zhang Chun liked people like Ma Xiaojiao who had no political ambitions. She said, "Then just listen to me. Even if you have to do whatever it takes, you have to sleep with Zhao Ya more often and give him more children. Don't worry about him not being able to raise them, and don't worry about wasting time on his education. Even if you have a hundred children, Zhao Ya can still afford them, and there will be people to help raise and teach them for you."

Ma Xiaojiao rolled her eyes at Zhang Chun and said, "I'm not a pig. No, a pig can't give birth to so many babies."

"I'm just giving an example." Zhang Chun changed his tone and asked, "By the way, how many times have you slept with Zhao Ya?"

Ma Xiaojiao blushed and said nothing.

Seeing this, Zhang Chun guessed, "Just once?"

Ma Xiaojiao didn't react. Zhang Chun knew at a glance that this must have happened more than once, so he guessed, "Three times?"

Ma Xiaojiao still didn't respond.

Zhang Chun's eyes lit up: "Five times?"

Ma Xiaojiao stammered, "No... more than that."

Zhang Chun punched Ma Xiaojiao with her fist: "Of course, Jiaojiao, it's only been a short time and you've already slept with Zhao Ya so many times. I was so worried that you wouldn't have a chance of getting pregnant!"

At this point, Zhang Chunzhen became curious and asked bluntly, "How many times?"

Ma Xiaojiao stammered, "Six..."

"Six times." Zhang Chun said.

"Six, twenty-something." Ma Xiao said shyly, "Pei Sui has seven, I have six, Wang Chuchu and Guo Wei have four each. But I guess if we compare the number of times, I should have the most. I feel like Zhao Ya likes me especially."

For some reason, Zhang Chun felt jealous after hearing what Ma Xiaojiao said, even though this was the result she wanted.

Moreover, the more Zhang Chun thought about the good things Zhao Ya and Ma Xiaojiao did in bed, the more uncomfortable he felt.

Let’s put it this way, she even had the urge to slap Ma Xiaojiao, the mistress.

"Men are all pigs!"

"Jiaojiao is also a green tea. She looks quite innocent at ordinary times, but I didn't expect that she can seduce men so well!"

"Wait... Zhang Chun, this kind of mentality is unacceptable. If you want to achieve something, you must put an end to jealousy and take the initiative to send women to Zhao Ya. Otherwise, you will never achieve anything great!"

Suppressing his jealousy, Zhang Chun touched Ma Xiaojiao's belly and said expectantly, "Could it be that you are already pregnant with Zhao Ya's son?"

Unexpectedly, Ma Xiaojiao said a piece of news that surprised and upset Zhang Chun: "I don't know, it's just... I haven't had my period this month, it seems like I'm having a period."

“I won already?!!!”

Zhang Chunzhen couldn't suppress her jealousy towards Ma Xiaojiao anymore! She couldn't accept that Ma Xiaojiao had easily obtained everything she had tried so hard, used all kinds of tricks, and even been accused of destroying unity.

"If Jiaojiao gave birth to Zhao Ya's eldest son, wouldn't that be a critical blow to me?"

"Calm down! Calm down! If Jiaojiao doesn't give Zhao Ya a son out of wedlock, someone else will. Comparatively speaking, it will definitely be more beneficial to me if Jiaojiao gives Zhao Ya a son out of wedlock."

"No, why did Jiaojiao get all these good things first?"

Zhang Chun glanced at Ma Xiaojiao's chest, which seemed to have grown considerably larger. Then, lowering his head, he saw his own feet. His temper immediately vanished, and he could only complain inwardly with resentment, "All men are superficial, and Zhao Ya is no exception!"

Seeing that Zhang Chun was silent, Ma Xiaojiao asked, "Sister Chun, are you okay?"

Zhang Chun took a deep breath and said as rationally as possible, "Although you may be pregnant with Zhao Ya's child, you can't be careless. You have to keep working hard. Have you seen the movies? Use the tricks in them that are a thousand years ahead of their time to seduce Zhao Ya and make him unable to stop wanting you. You must be the first woman to give birth to Zhao Ya's son!"

Ma Xiaojiao rolled her eyes and thought to herself, "Who do you take me for?"

Seeing that Ma Xiaojiao didn't care, Zhang Chun became even more angry. She said with a look of dismay, "Don't be like Li Lin and the others. They've been traveling here for so long, but they still haven't figured out the current situation. They think they're great just because they're travelers. Little do they know that they're losing their initiative step by step, losing their advantages as travelers, and will only be able to rely on us in the future..."

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

Then, Li Lin, Ye Shiyun and Yuan Qingcheng were seen walking towards them from a distance.

However, Zhang Chun's gaze did not fall on Li Lin and the other two girls, but on Zheng Xiansu and Wang Yisu in front of them, especially the former...
