Defying the Heavens and Changing Fate

The old man looked at Jiang Xi with a serious expression. Although Jiang Xi’s eyebrows were still a little muddled, her root of wisdom was the best he had ever seen in all these years.

Hearing the old man’s words, Jiang Xi quickly shook her head. “No, no, no, I’m going to get married!” In her past life, the blind fortune-teller had said that if she could not get married, she would live a short life. She had finally transmigrated and reincarnated, and she did not want to experience the feeling of death again. Jiang Xi looked at the old man as if he was a fool. She thought that if Yang Fen heard what he said, she would probably go up to him and fight him to the death. Yang Fen wanted to marry her off, but this old man wanted her to become a monk…

“You…” The old man choked. He did not expect Jiang Xi to refuse him using such a reason.

“You’re already so old, but you’re still out here scamming people. It’s obvious that you’re living a hard life. Don’t worry, I won’t expose you, but don’t even think about lying to me. You can go and lie to that idiot. He grabbed a bunch of bottom-bottom lots, and it looks like he’s rich. The legends say that stupid people have a lot of money, and they’ll always get scammed.” Jiang Xi recommended customers to the old man with great respect.

In the bamboo forest not far away, Zhao Ruifeng, who was ‘stupid but rich’, was holding a lot of bottom-bottom lots and trying to ask the old man to explain them. He did not expect to hear Jiang Xi’s words as soon as he came over, so he instantly hid all the bottom-bottom lots in his sleeve.

The old man, who had wanted to talk to Jiang Xi about the benefits of following him, was dumbfounded when he heard Jiang Xi call him a liar. He was the imperial preceptor. How did he become a liar? “You little girl…” He glared at Jiang Xi.

“Alright, I have to go back. My second brother Jiang er is in a hurry to find a wife. I have to go back and watch the fun.” Jiang Xi did not have any other hobbies, but she liked to join in the fun!

The imperial preceptor, who was usually chased by people for answers, was dumbfounded. No… What was the background of this little girl? Why did she not know to ask for a blessing or test her luck after seeing him? This was the first time that the imperial preceptor had been ignored! However, what the imperial preceptor did not know was that while he was the one who measured people’s fortunes, Jiang Xi was the one who brought them true fortune. The kind of fortune that could turn misfortune into fortune, the kind that could change a person’s fate!

At this time, Zhao Ruifeng came out of the bamboo forest with a straight face and looked at the imperial preceptor, teasing, “I didn’t expect that there would be a day when you would be disrespected. I’m afraid the emperor will laugh at you to death if he finds out.”

The imperial preceptor did not even raise his head. He stroked his white beard and said, “The emperor can’t smile when he sees you.” No one knew that although the imperial preceptor had a sage-like appearance, his mouth was actually merciless. The smile on his face disappeared, and he looked up at Zhao Ruifeng and said, “Your fate was forcibly changed back then. You were supposed to have many children and good fortune, but it was changed by someone. If you can’t find someone who has the exact opposite fate, I’m afraid that in less than three years, your life will be in danger, and even the Zhao family will not be able to escape the misfortune.” The imperial preceptor shook his head. He had only seen such a person like Zhao Ruifeng in his life, but he did not know who had such a great ability to change fate!

Zhao Ruifeng lowered his eyes and did not say anything. A dark light flashed in his dark eyes, and he sneered, ” “The Zhao family’s courtyard is not at peace, and it is difficult to live in peace. This has a lot to do with my father’s dissolute nature, so it is not credible to simply attribute it to fate.” Zhao Ruifeng felt that most things depended on human effort, and even fate was created by one’s own efforts.

The imperial preceptor narrowed his eyes and shook his head. He did not care about the Zhao family’s affairs, but some of the things that the Zhao family had done were too much. It was time to get someone to discipline them. He glanced at Zhao Ruifeng and said, “Your stepmother’s daughter, Zhao Panpan, is probably going to have some relationship with the emperor. I don’t know if she will marry a prince or be taken into the emperor’s harem. I can see that Zhao Panpan’s face is also very rich and noble. She was born to be a noble person. I’ll congratulate you in advance.”

Zhao Ruifeng pursed his lips and did not say anything. There were four girls in the Zhao family who could participate in this year’s selection. Xiao Meili had become Zhao Ruifeng and Zhao Yingying’s stepmother after marrying into the Zhao family and had a lot of contact with the empress. Xiao Meili’s daughter, Zhao Panpan, was even doted on by the empress. This was known by everyone in Jing City. Now that the crown prince only had one main consort and one secondary consort, Xiao Meili probably wanted to send Zhao Panpan to the crown prince’s bed, hoping that Zhao Panpan would become the crown prince’s secondary consort.
