Chapter 23

My heart felt like it was torn apart. This is a phenomenon that I didn’t experience in the previous reincarnations. Is it that….in this lifetime, I’ll suffer from a heart disease? A sick lady struggling to catch the young master and finally died from heart pain. That plot flashed through my mind.


I opened my eyes and saw a beautifully carved rosewood bed. It seems that I reincarnated into a rich family. I saw that on the bed mantle was a phoenix embroidered with golden threads. Ah……I might’ve been reincarnated into the royal family in this lifetime.


The pain in my chest kept getting stronger. I couldn’t help myself from touching it. I was taken aback and gasped for air. What is this?!


There was a sharp dagger stuck in my chest! What alarmed me more is my chest. Why is it so flat? Why is this hand so large? Above it’s covered with calluses. Where did my nice white hand go? Even if it’s not a nice white hand, where did the little hand of a child go? This is obviously a hand of a rough man!


I struggled to get up. I felt a sharp pain in my chest. It bled more making my head feel dizzy. Do I have to die after just being reincarnated?


“……In the next lifetime, you must live in the human world for twenty years. Otherwise when you come down to the netherworld, you’re handed over to me for punishment.”


Yanwang words kept ringing in my ears. When thinking about the punishment that was written on the paper, it felt like something stuck deeper in my heart than the dagger. I was trembling in pain.


No……although I’m not quite sure what the situation is now, but I’ve been only a few moments in this world. I can’t die like this! If I go back to the netherworld so soon……the rest of my life will be ruined. Definitely ruined!


I hold the dagger and tried to pull it out. I struggled endlessly with it. Suddenly, I heard another voice. I turned and looked. It’s a round faced woman wearing elegant clothes. Her face was really pale. With a “wa”sound she spit out a mouthful of black blood. It seemed like she’s been poisoned.


This……this, what sort of situation is this now? A rich woman and a rough man lying together. The rough man has a dagger stuck in his chest, the woman was poisoned. Fuck! In what sort of mess am I caught?


“Fuck! What is this situation?!”


The woman in elegant clothes looked at me and I was shocked. When she finished talking, she clutched her chest and vomited.


An ominous feeling crossed my heart again. I asked breathlessly: “Chu…Chu Kong?”


When the sound escaped my mouth, I heard it’s a deep voice. I secretly wiped my bitter tears.


When the lady raised her head, she looked at me in horror.


“Xiao Xiang Zi?”


Her lips trembled: “Damn, damn damn you…….always haunting me.”


“Haunt, huhu, the one who is haunting me is you! Hear me clearly, you’re not allowed to get close to me!”


After saying those words, I was out of breath. I seemed to have seen Yanwang waving at me.


“Who……who still wants to get close to you. Xiaoye, xiaoye will save this life first. Go back to the netherworld yourself. Go, go kiss that little round face of Yanwang.”


I shivered. This really is a good reason to let me use my greatest power and courage to continue living.


I tightened my hand, gritted my teeth and pulled with all my strength. The part of the dagger came out, but there’s still a part plugged in my chest. More blood flowed out.


I cursed angrily: “Which bastard stabbed me? Is there gold in my chest, ah?”


The side were Chu Kong was lying on the bed trembled. While spitting blood, he climbed out of the bed and struggled to get to the table. He grabbed the teapot on the table and began to drink water. He didn’t drink for long when the water in the teapot was gone.


Chu Kong also flew into a rage. He raised his hand and knocked all that was on the table onto the ground.


“Poor bastard! Your home doesn’t even have water to drink!”


When we were caught in this mess, suddenly someone opened the door of this haunted house.


“General!”


A man wearing clothes in light colors walked towards me.


“General! How come this happened?!”


Two maids came running towards Chu Kong’s side.


“A! Princess! Princess, are you alright?!”


I didn’t have any more strength to answer and also didn’t have more energy to think about it. I only blinked and deep in my heart, I kept cursing at them. I and that princess are alright or not…don’t you have eyes to see it……


When I woke up again, the dagger was pulled out of my chest. The wound was bandaged. The man in clothes with light colors was kneeling at my bed. He kept his head down and didn’t say anything.


I coughed twice and wanted to sit up. That man immediately came to help me. After helping me, he went back and knelt down again. I wondered: “What are you doing?”


“This servant didn’t protect you well. General, please punish me.”


I scratched my head. I wanted to day that I still don’t know what situation this is, but seeing a heroic man kneeling in front of me, I didn’t have the heart to tell him that your master already died. I’m just a weak woman who came to this body. I coughed twice and asked: “That, Chu, well……where is princess?”


The man kneeling on the floor suddenly rose.


“Why would general still worry about her?! That Qingling princess harmed Xinyun lady and tried to murder general. She’s very vicious. General shouldn’t tolerate her behavior anymore! This servant asks general to report this matter to the emperor. Even if the empress dowager is protecting Qingling princess, she also can’t ignore the crime of trying to murder a husband!”


I touched my nose. In my heart, I thought: So this story is a love triangle. Princess likes general. General married the princess, but likes another woman. In a moment of anger, princess murdered the woman and murdered the general. Hey… this isn’t right. How did she get poisoned? Could it be that after murdering the husband, she was in despair and tried to murder herself?


I didn’t speak and the man said: “General! You shouldn’t tolerate Qingling princess anymore!”


I pouted. Even if you’re tearfully complaining, I wouldn’t have a way ah. Because now in that body is celestial star Chu Kong and not that Qingling princess. Besides I don’t know about this situation yet and I can’t foresee the consequences. I’m also not familiar with my surroundings and I don’t know the people. Also in this lifetime, I don’t have power and I need to live for twenty years. If I go against this Qingling princess right now, if Chu Kong died then it’s alright, but if he doesn’t die, I wouldn’t know how he’ll get back at me! This is a risk I can’t take. I and Chu Kong can be said to be in the same situation right now. Before we get a clear vision of this matter, I must not fight with him.


I waved my hand and said: “You can retire, I’ll think about this matter.”


Although the man had an unwilling expression, he didn’t dare to go against me. He gritted his teeth and respectfully answered: “Yes.”


I felt that ordering people around was a pretty good feeling. Suddenly, outside the door was noisy.


“Princess, you can’t ah! Now you still can’t get out of bed!”


“Even if princess wants to see the general, it could wait! Take care of your body!”


“Princess! Princess!”


My servant’s face changed color.


“Hang, this Qinglin princess really went too far! General, this servant will go drive her away.”


“Wait!”


I hurried yelled after him.


“That, cough, it doesn’t matter, let her come in.”


“General!”


“Let her come in.”


“Yes……”


Before the servant let her in, Chu Kong wearing elegant clothes, kicked the door open. She walked in. Her face was still pale, but it was better than the day she vomited blood.


“General?”


She smiled coldly and waved with her hands.


“Aside from the one lying in bed, all the other people get out.”


My servant’s hand turned into a fist.


“Qinglin princess, you!”


“My head hurts, you all get out.”


After I opened my mouth, that man gritted his teeth and went out.”


After the door closed, in the room there’re only me and Chu Kong left.


“You’d better be able to explain this situation!”


Chu Kong sat on my bed and stared at me ferociously.


I expressed my frustration: “If I know what situation this is, then it’ll be good.”
