"Feiran, I didn't expect you to be so amazing. Actually, Lin Xiao and Shu Yue were deceived when they were young, which is why they spoke rudely to you. When they grew up, they often asked about you and said you were a great hero."

Yao Feiran looked at Mao Xujing with newfound respect, noting that he had actually used the child as a starting point.

If it were the original owner of this body, she would probably feel emotional, after all, it was her own flesh and blood, and she had once been full of hope, hoping that one day she could be close to this mother.

Mao's mother also rushed over and grabbed the wooden railing: "Yes, Lin Xiao and Shu Yue are good children. They are your own children after all. Even if you hate us, how can you be so heartless as to abandon your children?"

Yao Fei lowered her eyes and chuckled softly: "What are you still dreaming about? How could I let children with Mao family blood become my children and give them inheritance rights?"

If she acknowledges these two people, then Yao Ruoshen's position becomes very awkward.

Mao's mother became even more agitated: "But the child is innocent!"

"You forced them to bring me along and stirred up trouble between us. They deserve this fate. Since I gave birth to them, I will naturally raise them and give them food. However, they can never return to the capital or take the imperial examinations until the next emperor ascends the throne."

Even Mao's father's expression changed; by doing this, she had eliminated any possibility for the two children.

Since Yao Feiran entered the capital, they still thought that no matter what, she would not abandon her child. They believed that if the child persuaded them, they might be spared. After Yao Feiran passed away and the child ascended the throne, the Mao family would become a member of the imperial clan.

As a result, Yao Feiran imprisoned them, and it is said that the two children are still wandering the streets.

The whole family was accusing Yao Feiran of being heartless, but Yao Feiran didn't even lift an eyelid.

"This is your last meal today, so enjoy it."

Mao Xujing was shocked: "What do you mean?"

"Tell you when you're going to die."

"You're so vicious! I'm the child's father. Aren't you afraid the child will hate you?"

"If you hate me, I'll kill them."

Her eyes were indifferent, without the slightest emotion. Mao Xujing felt a chill in his heart and suddenly realized that Yao Feiran no longer had any feelings for those two children.

The family finally started to get scared, thinking that they still had a chance to survive because of the child. But when they realized it was useless, they immediately changed their tone.

"I was wrong to you back then, but it didn't warrant death. We were married for several years, why be so cruel? Aren't you afraid it will damage your reputation?"

Yao Feiran said with a mocking expression, "Isn't it a crime punishable by death?"

The original owner of this body was so angry that she died, yet she didn't deserve to die. Besides, they ruined the marriage alliance with the Yao family and turned to the Wang family instead; they deserved to die a hundred times over.

As for their reputation, Yao Feiran considered it for a moment. If their reputation was too bad, it would be difficult to carry out their work. So she decided to let them die in an accident.

Therefore, Yao Feiran granted a general amnesty, and the Mao family was expelled from the capital, where they died of illness on the way.

Mao Linxiao and Mao Shuyue were sent out of the capital in a dilapidated carriage, escorted by ten elite soldiers in plain clothes, whose eyes showed no respect but only indifference.

The two remained silent, looking bewildered and helpless.

Mao Linxiao's eyes were red: "Were Father and Grandmother harmed by that woman? She's so wicked."

Mao Shuyue looked out the window and remained silent for a long time: "It was Father who framed Mother and divorced her. Now that Mother is the Empress, she will naturally want revenge."

"What do you mean? How can you speak up for that woman? Even tigers don't eat their cubs, and she doesn't even want to see us."

"It seems like we've always been unwilling to see her."

Mao Shuyue was approaching marriageable age, and she knew how difficult it was for a woman to be divorced. Even though the Yao family held a higher official position than the Mao family, they couldn't protect their daughter from being divorced.

If it weren't for my mother's success in establishing the empire, I probably would have spent my life as a Buddhist monk.

And they actually said they didn't like this mother and wanted Shan Yue to be the mother, but Shan Yue deceived everyone; the Mao family was just a stepping stone for her.

Even when Yao Feiran became emperor, they were still thinking about what they should ask for if Yao Feiran apologized to them, at least to give the Mao family a princely title.

Now think about it, why should we give honor to the family of an ex-husband who hurt me?

They are the ones who should admit their mistakes.

This outcome is karma.

Mao Linxiao's face twisted in pain. Before, he had been dreaming of becoming emperor, but now he realized that Yao Feiran had really given up on him completely. He actually harbored some resentment towards his grandmother. If his grandmother hadn't forced him to stay by her side and separated from his mother, he wouldn't be in this situation where he has nothing to show for it.

The two, each with their own thoughts, embark on their unknown destinies.

After Yao Feiran became emperor, everything was in need of rebuilding, and the development of Yuzhou should be promoted nationwide.

Seeing this magnificent scene, Old Master Lin felt a great weight lifted from his heart, and soon fell ill, beyond the reach of any medicine.

Yao Feiran went to see him, and Old Master Lin patted the back of her hand: "Actually, I should have died a long time ago, but I held on to my last breath, and now I am content."

"Grandfather, whatever your wish is, I will do my best to fulfill it."

Looking at Lin Zhengbai hiding behind him, Old Master Lin's eyes suddenly turned indifferent: "I wonder if we can bring my maternal grandmother to the palace to live a life of luxury."

"I will bestow upon her the title of Grand Empress Dowager."

Old Master Lin smiled and said, "That's good. Let them all step down."

Lin Zhengbai was somewhat puzzled, but he still left with his wife.

"My son isn't very capable, but he's ambitious beyond his years. If one day he does something to wrong you, I hope you'll forgive the Lin family."

Yao Feiran raised an eyebrow. It turned out that the Lin family was being spared, but Lin Zhengbai was not. It seemed that Lin Zhengbai had said something in private that frightened Old Master Lin.

Yao Feiran nodded, and then everyone came in. Not long after, Old Master Lin passed away.

Yao Feiran brought Madam Lin back to the palace. Madam Lin had little attachment to her son and agreed without hesitation.

Madam Yao would frequently visit Old Madam Lin at the palace, and her spirits had improved considerably.

After Yao Feiran became emperor, she began to promote science. In less than a few years, the whole country underwent tremendous changes. With the improvement of productivity through science and technology, people rarely went hungry, and her policies and laws gradually moved closer to modernity.

When Yao Ruoshen came over again, Yao Feiran discovered that her protagonist luck had disappeared.

It seems that fate has changed the male and female protagonists again, but Yao Ruoshen's luck is still very strong. Yao Feiran sent Qi Fang to continue searching for Wang Chixun.

After a while, Xiaoxia came over: "Your Majesty, news has come from Yunhe Temple that Master Qingxu passed away last night."

Master Qingxu is Liu Yunci, the abbot of Yunhe Temple.

Yunhe Temple is now located at the foot of Dijing Mountain and has become a royal Taoist temple. It is now very popular and has gained many more disciples.

"I understand, I'll go to Yunhe Temple."

"Yes."

Yao Feiran traveled discreetly. A sedan chair emerged from the palace and headed towards Yunhe Temple. Upon arriving at Yunhe Temple, Yao Feiran went to see Liu Yunci, who was already lifeless.

Ye Miaochen knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, my senior brother passed away in his sleep, without any illness or pain."

Yao Feiran helped Ye Miaochen up: "Master, there's no need for such formalities. It's a great blessing to pass away without illness or pain. From now on, Yunhe Temple will be in your care."

Ye Miaochen was filled with excitement. She was also grateful that Yao Feiran had joined their Taoist temple back then, otherwise they wouldn't be where they are today.

As soon as Yao Feiran left Yunhe Temple, she felt a vague sense of unease. She had sensed it before she left, and knew that this time was coming soon.
