Rebirth: Ordinary Life and Living

Guan Li observed his son for a long time and finally confessed to him that it was the effect of the medicine. The son was deeply moved and expressed gratitude to his father. He asked his father to buy more because the effect was so good.

Guan Li saw that there were only two pills left in the medicine bottle, and they would be gone after two days. His son was very anxious, and even Guan Li was very anxious. He wanted his son to continue to be a healthy man. He had only been a man for a few days. If the medicine was stopped, how could he have a grandson? He hurriedly followed the plan that Jin Youyuan had suggested, and quietly put a candy in a hole under a stone lion at the door of the alley in his backyard.

After a while, a ragged old woman came to the alley with a child of seven or eight years old to collect garbage. The child took the candy naturally, looked at Guan Li and said: "Come with us!"

The old woman turned around and covered Guan Li's eyes with a piece of black cloth, plugged his ears with two earplugs, and tied his hands and feet with a very elastic rope. He was unable to move. The more he tried to struggle, the tighter the rope became, making Guan Li feel more and more uneasy. After a while, they came to a small courtyard, where many lonely elderly people and children lived.

The old woman helped Guan Li take off the black cloth from his eyes, removed his earplugs, and untied him. She casually said, "The person you are looking for is in there. Come in!"

Guan Li walked into the yard where a group of children were running, half-believing and half-doubting. There were some women changing clothes inside. Going further in, he saw various Chinese herbal medicines drying in the yard. There was a strange old man with a head full of messy white hair, who was boiling various herbs in the kitchen.

The person standing at the kitchen door was Jin Youyuan. He was wearing a blue suit, not gorgeous at all, and very low-key. He was talking and laughing with the old man at the door.

Jin Youyuan turned around and said, "Future father-in-law, you are finally here. Come, please sit down!"

Jin Youyuan politely invited Guan Li to sit in the pavilion in the yard, and while pouring tea, he greeted Guan Li politely.

Guan Li also pretended to greet Jin Youyuan politely for a while, but he got straight to the point. Guan Li questioned the medicine. He didn't know if the medicine would harm his son's body or if there were any side effects.

Jin Youyuan was very sure that this medicine did not cause any harm to his son's body. Once he stopped taking the medicine, his son's body would return to its original state. And he was very sure that if his son continued to take it, he was very sure that he would have more than ten grandchildren in the next few years.

Hearing Guan Li's excitement, Jin Youyuan immediately placed a month's supply of medicine bottle in front of Guan Li.

Finally, Guan Li took out the marriage certificate, agreed to Jin Youyuan's marriage with her daughter, and revealed the conspiracy between him and the Queen's party.

When will the action be taken? Who will be involved? He told Jin Youyuan the details of the process, and Jin Youyuan thanked Guan Li profusely. Guan Li took the medicine and said gratefully, "From now on, the fate of our Guan family is tied to you, Prince. Please don't let me down."

Jin Youyuan took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I will never let you down, father-in-law."

Jin Youyuan told Guan Li what to do now, how to act, and what to do when the time comes. He explained it clearly, and Guan Li nodded repeatedly.

In the end, Guan Li was still blindfolded and had earplugs in his ears, but his hands and feet were no longer tied. He was sent back to the back alley of Guan's mansion.

Jin Youyuan promised that every month he would put a medicine bottle in the small hole under the stone lion, and the amount of medicine in it would be enough for one month, so that Guan's father and son could rest assured, and Guan left with great relief.

Two days later, the emperor was carried to the court despite his illness and read out an imperial edict, conferring the title of "King of Lailin" on Jin Youyuan. He even gave him the golden key to the imperial city, the only golden key that could open any door in the palace, including the treasury, the gold vault, the treasure house, all the secret rooms, and all the doors in the imperial city, which was placed in a golden box.

Everyone was shocked. Jin Youyuan was so grateful in front of the court that the other princes hated him to the core.

Even the queen did not expect that the emperor would have the energy to attend court to deal with this matter before his death, which caught her off guard.

The other members of Prince Yan'an's party were also shocked. Prince Yan'an pretended to return to his fiefdom, but in fact he had been hiding in Cangdu City, secretly observing the court situation and waiting for an opportunity to act.

What they didn't expect was that their father, who had not much time left, would do something like this before he died, catching them off guard.

In a dark room, Prince Yan'an lost his temper and smashed things, cursing and shouting: "That little bastard, he is so damn lucky! He has escaped death from our hands so many times, does our father only have eyes for that little bastard? Aren't we his sons? Why does he only love him?"

The 20th prince Jin Youjiu said: "I'm afraid that after he ascends the throne, he will come after us to settle accounts!"

Prince Yan'an gnashed his teeth and said, "I will never let him succeed. If I have to, I don't mind cooperating with the Queen to kill him by surprise!"

Talk to our mother and tell them that it is necessary for them to talk to the Queen.

The other three princes, 20 Jin Youjiu, 21 Jin Youye and 22 Jin Yousheng, nodded and accepted the order. (The mothers of the four princes are sisters)

Zhou Xinyue was tortured to the point of exhaustion. She couldn't help but stand up and throw away all the food, spices, and books on the table. She lost her temper and said, "Don't force me anymore. I don't want to learn, I don't want to learn, I don't want to learn."

The elderly grandmother in the room said angrily: "I'll ask you again, do you want to learn or not?"

Zhou Xinyue said with red eyes: "I, don't, learn."

The old grandmother gave a look to the people in the corner, and they immediately pricked the mute girl with needles.

The mute girl couldn't bear the pain and opened her mouth wide, but no sound could come out. She could only hear the cry of "Aba, Aba".

Zhou Xinyue couldn't bear to see the mute girl, so she yelled, "Besides this trick, what else can you do? Why don't you let her go? Why are you torturing her?"

The old lady said: "The trick is not new, as long as it works for us!"

Zhou Xinyue felt particularly helpless and said, "You bunch of beasts, I'll curse your ancestors for eighteen generations, you bunch of wild sows, I wish I could chop you into dead pigs, grind you into sausages and feed your whole family to eat..."

Zhou Xinyue kept spouting sentences. Everyone in the room frowned and covered their ears. The old lady scolded hurriedly, "She's started it again, she's started it again. Hurry up, what are you standing there for? Shut her up."
