Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter

Chapter 286 A particular place for man

At the end of The Guidance on Qizhen Fantasy Dream, Bai Yangbai wrote, “The most tempting feature of the Dream is its time passes slower than that in the outside world. One year in the Dream equals two hours of the outside world. In other words, you can pick up as many girls as you want regardless of time limits! The Dream is a particular place for man. Just try it!”

What the hell? Since those words were written to Meng Xuan, maybe Bai Yangbai also had a Qizhen Fantasy Dreamwhere he often invited a variety of teenagers to play, and Bai Yangbai would charge them. She shook her head to get rid of this unpleasant scene. Anyway, Meng Xuan was not a bored man, and he wouldn’t like this “particular place for man.” But would he want to such a place as a man?

Suddenly she felt headache, so she took out a mirror. That was a blue bruise caused by Shangguan Mingri. It turned out that one’s body would as well get hurt if the spirit was hit, though it was not as serious as the body injury. She was stunned because she thought of Meng Xuan. A full-strength attack from Shangguan Mingri could only leave a bruise, and how did he suffer from what caused the deep hole in his chest? Didn’t his uncle and Qi Xuanyu warn him of the dangerousness?

She sighed. When did Meng Xuan become such a fool? She thought people would get smarter as they grew up. Now, Meng Xuan seemed not to be one of them.

At the same time, she didn’t notice a beautiful woman was coming close to her. Before He Danggui could make a response, that beautiful woman had turned around elegantly and sat on her!

When He Danggui was about to blame her, she surprisedly found that the woman just sat through her body on the bluestone beneath. After sitting down, the woman’s body overlapped with He Danggui’s spirit. However, He Danggui could not feel her weight or her fragrance.

She suddenly realized that she was nothing more than a strand of Qi with self-consciousness in the Dream. As long as she did not suffer a strong attack, the Dream would not impose any impact on her. Besides, that explained why the young Zhu Quan did not wake up when Shangguan Mingri stepped on his face in that fight. The strength was too light to wake him up.

Anyway, she did not see Zhu Qian since she recovered. Where did he go? Leaving her alone was not his choice. Why didn’t he tie her up with a rope so that he could revenge her? Why did he become so weak and had no internal force at all in the Dream?

The beautiful woman suddenly burst into tears. He Danggui stood up through her body to look at her face. Coincidently, she was Xi Bao, Zhu Quan’s new favorite concubine.

It was strange enough for her to cry here. Her enemy Concubine He was already dead. Why didn’t she take care of the sick Zhu Quan? Maybe she was lucky enough, not like the miserable Concubine He, to have a happy life in the future.

He Danggui suddenly remembered that her maid Lv Pingin her previous life had a deep blood scar in her hand. Lv Ping said that Xi Bao used a hairpin to scratch her hand, slandering Lv Ping for stealing the hairpin. Lv Ping felt wronged, and she pleaded with He Danggui to get justice for her. At that time, He Danggui was right in a jealous mood because of Xi Bao, so she nodded. However, when she got there and started to ask Xi Bao, Zhu Quan came out and scolded her jealousy.

She didn’t get justice for Lv Ping in the end. Instead, she left inconsolably, leaving Zhu Quan and Xi Bao embraced each other. But now ...

He Danggui softly picked off a golden hairpin from Xi Bao, and then used its tip to scratch across Xi Bao’s hand. Hearing the scream and seeing the scar, He Danggui smiled. She threw away the hairpin and left full of joy.

After a while, she suddenly felt great pleasure. Bai Yangbai was right. This place was full of magic, not only for men, but also for women!

People here couldn’t see you while you could see them; they couldn’t hurt you, but you were free to touch them. Interestingly, her most enemies were here. Thanks to the slow passage of time, she had enough time to revenge.

Zhou Jinglan, Xu Siniang, Shangguan Mingri...

Shangguan Mingri was so good at Kungfu that he could knock her out without seeing her. However, she was looking forward to fighting with a top master. Now, it was really a good opportunity for her. Shangguan Mingri’s fatal attack only let her fainted for a while. Who would be a better practice partner than he was? Maybe, if she was a lucky dog, she could kill him for revenge.

Therefore, she decided to stay in the Dream for some time. She could practice her Kungfu and further explore Qi Xuanyu’s secrets, his Xuanmiao Acupuncture in particular. She also could give Zhou Jinglan and her other enemies some trouble.

Zhou Jinglan bit the hand that fed her. She was vicious and calculating enough, but she was still a sentimental woman. A sentimental woman would always be afraid of night and ghosts. Yes, she was the ghost of Concubine He, looking for revenge. Although they were in the Dream and He Danggui didn’t know the relationship between the Dream and the true world, she was very enjoyable to make a little revenge. This must be the “Paradise” told by Qing’er.

At the moment, a well-dressed woman came here. She brushed past He Danggui and smiled, “My sister, what’s wrong with you? What happened to your hand? Do you want to make the Lord sad?”

He Danggui paused. That woman was ... Lv Ping?

She remembered that Lv Ping was detained by Zhou Jinglan to accuse He Danggui of sneaking out of the Mansion with a sedan.

She still remembered the testimony from that porter, “I live outside Beicheng City and serve as a porter. One year ago, a maid called Lv Ping hired us to carry a sedan at a great price. Since then, we would wait at Qipi Alley every night. Lv Ping sometimes would take a person in a cloak out. If no one appeared by 1’oclok in the night, we could go home then.”

That person in a cloakobviously referred to He Danggui. Later, Lv Ping “hit the wall and died” before making her statements in front of everyone. However, she was standing here right now, wearing silky clothes and fancy jewelry. Besides, she called Xi Bao “sister”. Did she also become Zhu Quan’s concubine now?

Xi Bao raised her head, and her eyes were full of hatred. She cursed, “Don’t show off in front of me! How could you 22-year-old bitch win the Lord’s heart without my assistance? You have no conscience!”

Lv Ping snorted, “We are both concubines promoted from maids. Now you tell me who is nobler than the other? In addition, I was a high-level maid to Concubine He. But you? You were just a bitch to wash Concubine Gu’s feet!” Seeing the angry Xi Bao, she added, “Although you are 5 years younger than me, waiting will devour your youth soon. It is just a few months that the Lord has not seen you, but you’ve got wrinkles around your eyes. Several months later, you will not be able to compete with Xu Siniang.”

Xi Bao stood up and counterattacked, “Fuck yourself. Everybody knows that you sold out your master to become a concubine. How shameful you dare to mention her!”

Lv Ping smoothed her hair and smiled, “You know what? I learned the gesture from Concubine He. I have learned her every gesture. This is why the Lord is attracted by me. You don’t have such an opportunity. Xi Bao, you’d better beg Concubine Gu to re-accept you. Otherwise, if the Lord finds your father’s embezzlement, you will be a dead person.”

Xi Bao smirked, “We are on the same boat. We have committed those crimes together! Don’t you forget your contribution to Concubine He’s death? You are just a shadow of Concubine He. Before I die, I will be the first to show the evidence that you fabricated a charge against Concubine He. You’d better show some respect to me.”

Lv Ping’s expression changed and she slapped Xi Bao, leaving 5 red finger marks on Xi Bao’s white face. She shouted, “I am Concubine Cai! I am higher than you in status. How dare you threaten me in this way? You are not sinless. If you disclose everything, your father and you will die! The Lord is utterly infatuated with Concubine He. As long as I follow her gestures, the Lord will spare me and even love me more.”

He Danggui was silent. She did know Lv Ping’s surnamed was Cai by now. And Lv Ping didn’t mention it as her maid for so many years.

Xi Bao covered her face with her white palm. She cried, “You are vicious! You hit the wall because you were afraid of getting involved in that accusation. You bitch will never have a good end!”

Lv Ping did not notice the four men walking toward them because she was back to them. But, Xi Bao and He Danggui saw them. They were Zhu Quan, Qi Xuanyu, Shangguan Mingri, and Sima Mingyue. They came out from Wu Xiang Ge.

Before He Danggui had time to appraise Qi Xuanyu’s medical skills, Lv Ping continued, “Indeed, I served her for many years. But why? Why would she become a concubine? She did not come from a powerful family! Let me tell you, it was me who told Zhou Jinglan about Concubine He’s trace. I did it!”
