Chapter 199: Wenquxing Reincarnation

That night, Concubine Xin woke from a dream, sitting up in shock.

“Master, master.”

The Great Uncle, whenever he heard “master,” would involuntarily be frightened, “What’s on fire now?”

“It’s me.”

The Great Uncle: …

“Wake up. I dreamed of a huge apple tree and went to pick apples, but they were all gone. Suddenly, a star fell from the sky, and I caught it. It fell into my arms, and then… I kept hearing a mystical voice saying, ‘The God of Literature has descended, the God of Literature has descended.’ I heard that pregnant women often have prophetic dreams. Master, could our child be the God of Literature?”

The Great Uncle looked bewildered and scratched his head.

“Master, I’m talking to you.”

“I… I think I also dreamed of a star, but I don’t remember the details. No matter what, our child is a treasure to us. Go back to sleep; dreams can be anything.”

No one saw the characters, which the Great Uncle had secretly buried in the foundation, glowing with golden light.

Under the dark night, the stars shone brightly.

“The God of Literature, the place where the golden light shines is where you will be reborn,” said the old man’s deep voice.

A shooting star fell from the night sky, quietly landing in the Duke’s residence, vanishing from sight.

—

Tonight is exceptionally tumultuous for the Prince Han’s residence.

All day long, the Princess Han’s cries have not ceased.

The reason is that Di Hongluan has been incredibly unlucky these past few days.

For three whole days, the Prince Han’s residence has been on the brink of collapse.

Yesterday, Di Hongluan was stabbed and then had her leg broken. Today, she finally woke up, only to fall into a lake and nearly drown.

Di Hongluan was tortured to the point of exhaustion, almost too weak to cry.

In the room, the Princess Han hovered by the bed, mumbling, “Luan’er, your wheelchair is faulty. With your leg, you can’t walk now. I’ll find a carpenter to make a new one for you.”

Di Hongluan replied expressionlessly, “My wheelchair is fine. It’s better than those made by carpenters with over twenty years of experience.”

“If it was fine, how did it slide into the lake?”

Di Hongluan closed her eyes in despair.

She had been pushing her wheelchair by the lake when it malfunctioned and slid uncontrollably into the water. She had been terrified at the time.

After all, she was limping on one leg.

This was all caused by the backlash talisman.

But could she tell her mother that her current plight was due to her secretly trying to teach Di Jiaoyang a lesson?

Of course not.

Her mother’s loose lips worried her that the incident might be exposed and affect the Prince Han’s residence.

“Mother, after today, I’ll be fine.” Today was the third day, the time when the backlash talisman would lose its effect.

Backstabbing, a crippled leg, drowning…

In these three days, she nearly died from the backlash. Thankfully, she was fortunate enough to be alive; just thinking about it made her shudder.

“But our Prince Han’s residence is ruined.”

Di Hongluan frowned, “What’s ruined?”

“While you were unconscious, several rooms in the Prince Han’s residence caught fire. We don’t even know why,” the Princess Han said, wiping her tears with a handkerchief. Repairing the residence would cost a significant amount of money, and it was painful.

Di Hongluan coughed in anger. It was this dire?

“The Great Uncle’s residence isn’t in any better shape, is it?” Now the Great Uncle might be harboring intense hatred towards Ah Bao, thinking she’s a disaster. She stayed in the Duke’s residence for two or three days and nearly ruined it.

“Ah, the Emperor just allocated a sum to rebuild the Great Uncle’s residence. They’re using public funds, so the Great Uncle is quite pleased and is even thanking the little princess for visiting his home. As for us, we have to use our own money for repairs.”

“Why is it that, as royalty, they use public funds while we have to repair our own?” Di Hongluan was displeased, suppressing her anger.

“We didn’t invite the little princess.”

Di Jiaoyang isn’t a disaster but a hot commodity?

Di Hongluan was so angry she almost fainted, but the situation also made her realize that she needed to become strong quickly, wield real power, and stand at the top of the continent, making everyone who looked down on the Prince Han’s residence look up to her.

“Mother, please leave for now. I need to rest.”

The Princess Han wiped her tears, “Alright, Luan’er, by the way, do you still have your New Year’s money?”

“It’s here. Why?”

The Princess Han seemed a bit embarrassed, “When we returned from Yucheng before the New Year, we were in a hurry and left many things behind. Now, with our residence’s expenses, including a large number of maids and servants to support, the costs are considerable. Could you take out your New Year’s money to help repair the residence?”

“Mother, don’t you have any money?” She also needed that New Year’s money to support people in secret.

The loyalty of Dahei and his subordinates over the years had cost her quite a bit of money. As a minor princess, she received more New Year’s money than ordinary children, making it crucial for her to support her people.

“Luan’er, what’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is yours. Mother is tight on funds right now. Could you possibly take it all out? Otherwise, people will mock our Prince Han’s residence.”

Di Hongluan was heartbroken. The backlash talisman didn’t mention it would leave her destitute.

She had destroyed the house herself and now had to pay to repair it. Di Hongluan had never experienced such a frustrating situation.

She also knew her mother wasn’t generous with money.

“Alright, alright, I’ll give it to you.”

“Ah, my Luan’er is so understanding. Rest now, Mother will leave first.” The Princess Han was ecstatic with the money she received.

Di Hongluan entered her spiritual realm and opened the system interface.

A row of red text indicated “Charisma Physique.”

Once the task was completed, she would achieve the Charismatic Female Lead status.

The task progress bar was already two-thirds complete.

【Host, the Charisma Physique is almost forged successfully. Keep up the effort; I believe in you.】

Special tasks don’t appear often. She took on this task three years ago, and now it was finally nearing completion.

As long as the Charismatic Female Lead physique was successfully forged, she would attract everyone.

Aspiring to climb the ranks and gain power was merely a matter of speaking.

“Only 30 more faith points are needed to complete the task.”

Faith is offered through incense and worship.

“Unfortunately, since Concubine Hui was demoted to the cold palace, the growth of faith points has been very slow. But fortunately, she has transferred the divine statue to Concubine Rou.”

Every morning and evening, worshipping the divine statue with sincere prayers and incense offerings generates faith value.

In these three years, she had created countless divine statues, all of which were taken home for worship.
