De Gui Jun completely collapsed, holding Ye Zhizhou while despairing, 'Why is it like this? If you really get married, wouldn't your gender... And why is it to the guoshi... Karma, this is Karma. Back then I shouldn't have listened to Sha Yue Guoshi and raised you as a daughter..."

Ye Zhizhou, who was currently guessing the identity of his lover, was shocked back to attention. He was surprised and asked, "Father, you had me pretend to be a girl because you believed Sha Yue Guoshi's words?"

"It's all because you father was too naive back then," De Gui Jun took him into his arms and wept, "After I became pregnant with you, I went to Ming Yue Palace to ask Sha Yue Guoshi to do a divination for you. The divination results were 'greatly inauspicious' and said that the fetus could not be kept. But how could I accept this? I angrily refused the guoshi's proposal to help me abort you and went back to De Lan Palace and began to care for you with trepidation. At that time, I thought, 'So what if you were greatly inauspicious, even if giving birth to you would cost my life, so be it."

(inauspicious: not conducive to success; unpromising)

When Ye Zhizhou heard this, he frowned fiercely and quickly sent out his spiritual power to comfort De Gui Jun. He then drew a large Z mark on Sha Yue on his mind! The time when De Gui Jun was pregnant with the original host happened to be shortly after Sha Yue had given birth to the protagonist. The divination results were greatly inauspicious? It was more like Sha Yue's jealous heart was greatly inauspicious. 

"Then afterwards, why did father raise me as a daughter?"

De Gui Jun's mood calmed down a little under his pacification. He released Ye Zhizhou, wiped a tear, and said, "Saying it is a little unbelievable. I always had accidents when I was pregnant with you. I almost lost you several times. I was startled and scared everyday. Instead of becoming fat, I became thin. Later, your grandfather sent a dependable eunuch and the situation became slightly better. With great difficulty, I managed to carry you to term, and as a result, the moment you were born, that eunuch died! Yan'er, I was afraid. The people around me were all saying that the eunuch had blocked the disaster for you. They also said that the first time was blocked, but the second time wouldn't be... Later... Later, Sha Yue Guoshi came and gave you another divination. He said you should've been a girl, but you were born in the wrong body. so you still carried resentment and had to be raised as a daughter. Otherwise, you would bring harm to the family."

Ye Zhizhou's expression could already be described with the words "pitch black". This Sha Yue really could talk nonsense! He was afraid that Sha Yue was the one behind all the accidents and the eunuch's death when De Gui Jun was pregnant. If De Gui Jun gave birth to a daughter, would Sha Yue have deceived him to raise the daughter as a son? In any case, falsifying the imperial family gender registry was a huge crime. Once it was exposed, De Gui Jun, his child, and his relatives would all be finished!

"Yan'er, I gave birth to you. I'm perfectly willing to die for you, but I still have my parents, my two younger sisters, an-and the Emperor... I can't be so selfish, so..." As De Gui Jun talked, his eyes became red again. "You were fine when you were young. Boys and girls all looked the same, and as long as you grew up happily it was fine. But now that you grew up, you should marry, study, and enter the court, gaining, gaining that final position. I really regret it. I also thought it through. What guoshi, what divination, they're all nonsense! Later, I found an eminent  monk to check your eight characters. The other said that you should've had the fate of a rich and honorable life. But as a result, because i changed you gender, it became the fate of dying young.. Yan'er, I wronged you. The eminent monk was right. I hurt you. I didn't think properly. It all my fault..."

The eminent monk was a little powerful, ah. The original host really did die young... He comfortingly hugged De Gui Jun and said in a warm voice, "Father, it's ok. You also said that divination is deceptive, so the eight characters that the eminent monk saw may not be necessarily accurate. Isn't it just mother emperor wanting me to marry the guoshi? I will marry him. Maybe the guoshi really does love me and doesn't care about my gender." If he dared to, he would immediately castrate him!
