Chapter 78 The Empress Destroyed Your Country (4)


Revised and edited on: Otaku Translation

A woman beside her weakly rebutted, “Your thoughts are wrong.”

Bai Tang raised her beautiful eyebrows, “What's wrong? Just because someone else doesn't do it, we shouldn't either? For example, if reading is useless, why do men all over the world want to read, suffer through it, endure the hardships of studying for decades, and still read? Is reading only useless for women? What will be the consequences if you don't read? You won't be able to understand some truths when you see the collision of ideas among others.
You are confined to a courtyard, yet admire talented young men.
If you read, would you be worse than them?”

“What's the use of saying all this? Don't forget we're in a prison wagon,” the other woman felt that Bai Tang's words were too lofty and out of reach.

Bai Tang asked with a smile, “We'll be arriving at the palace in just over ten days.
If I can get out of the palace, I'll take someone with me to be the pioneer.
Who wants to come with me?”

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

Li Xing'er felt that Bai Tang was a stranger.
They grew up in the same village, but why did she have such thoughts?


Everyone had their own thoughts.
Wen Yueqing looked at Bai Tang, who was clearly the same age as her, with bright and calm eyes and a smile on her face, as if she had infinite power.

Wen Yueqing slowly and firmly spoke up, “If I can go out, Miss Bai, please take me with you.
I want to be this kind of person and fight for myself and future women.”

“Okay.” Bai Tang smiled and nodded.

Two women from different times and spaces met in the darkness and their eyes collided, creating a brilliant flower.

The others didn't know what to think.
They felt like these two women were different, as if they were shining.
At the same time, they also felt like they were being reckless.
How could they possibly do something like this?

“I…I want to go with you too,” a girl shrank and said.

Bai Tang laughed and replied, “I said if I can go out.
What if I can't?”

She only planned to bring one person.
Bringing two people would be burdensome, and this girl only wanted to leave.
That was all.



The girl's eyes dimmed.

The noisy chatter gradually quieted down as the night grew deeper.

Bai Tang tore off a piece of the bread, kneaded it into a small ball, and it became hard and lumpy.

On the other side, three girls were tied up and sleeping on the grass.
These three girls were the ones who had been in the tent earlier.
Two soldiers were guarding them with a lewd expression.

It was easy to escape from that place.
Bai Tang flicked the balls with her fingertips.

Several balls hit the two soldiers, making them temporarily speechless and immobile.

The other three balls broke the rope that bound the girls.



The three girls felt a sudden pain, and when they looked down, they saw that the ropes that had bound them had been cut.

They looked at each other and whispered to each other.

“The rope that bound me broke.”

“Mine too.”

“And mine.”

“Let's quietly untie ourselves and find a chance to escape.”

“Okay.”


“Mhm.”

The three girls carefully untied their ropes, their hearts in their throats, afraid that the two soldiers would notice.

One of the girls couldn't help but feel that the two soldiers were acting strange.
They had been staring at them for so long, when had they ever been this still? They weren't moving or speaking at all.

Thinking this, the girl said to the other two, “You two go first, I'll cover our retreat.”

One of the girls tried to persuade her, “It's too dangerous to stay, Zhizhi, let's go together.”

Song Zhi shook her head, “Stop talking.
If they find out, we won't be able to escape.
At least I know some martial arts and can hold them back.
You two go first, quickly.”

With gritted teeth, the two girls supported each other and fled into the night and chaos.
