Back In Time (The Reincarnation of the Cruel Concubine)

Small game

"If you can't do it, I will."

Yang Jia Li got up from the bed, naked, the empress blew out all the candles in her room. The woman locked the door so that Yang Zhe Yan could not run away, in very little lighting, He could see Zhe Yan was scared and agitated, but what would you say, the empress was already overwhelmed.

Empress Yang stepped slowly towards Yang Zhe Yan, then pushed the young man's shoulder to sit on his bed. Without saying much, Yang Jia Li immediately sat on the lap of the younger brother, pulling his hand to continue the one that had been delayed.

"I beg you brother, we shouldn't be doing this."

"What did you say!"

"Sister."

"Then?"

"It's not the right thing to do."

"What do you know about the truth, huh?!"

"Ka..."

Plakkk..........

Yang Jia Li's clumsy hand slapped firmly on Zhe Yan's cheek, silencing the word that was about to come out earlier. The woman was fed up, she just wanted an impingement, that hard. "I made you commander-in-chief, Zhe Yan."

"Don't you know how to thank me? This is how you thank me, heh!"

"You don't know yourself, Zhe Yan. Remember that if I don't make you a soldier, you might just be a vagabond because of your poor parents. Look at this!" Yang Jia Li pointed at the warrior clothes inherent in Zhe Yan, "Tanpaku, you can't possibly be the commander now, Zhe Yan."

Empress Yang rose up, her anger towards Wu Li Mei had not subsided and now Zhe Yan was further aggravating her mood.

The empress pointed her index finger at the door, "Go! I don't want to see your face, anymore."

Hearing that, Yang Zhe Yan immediately left, he took his sword at the table, and rushed out. He felt angry of course, with the easy intention of the brother insulting his parents and himself. But the commander could do nothing, reminding the queen of power greater than him.

...****************...

At the residence of the grand concubine, Wu Li Mei laughed in satisfaction, she heard the news from her spy ladyboy that Yang Jia Li was rampaging in her pavilion last night.

This time he won, but wait, because this is just the beginning. There is still a very long row of plans for Wu Li Mei to destroy the empress.

"What?" ask Wu Li Mei.

Dayang Yi again whispered in the ear of the lord.

"What is Zhe Yan?"

Dayang Yi nodded, "Yes, Commander Yang, from the east, Your Majesty."

Wu Li Mei rubbed her chin, the yellow-haired woman smiled obliquely. "So, Yang Jia Li is having an affair with her cousin's sister huh."

A sneaky idea flashed across his brain, he would create a small game to trap Yang Jia Li of course.

"Darling Yi!" Wu Li Mei asked the lady-in-waiting to come closer, and whispered her plan to Dayang Yi.

"Prepare immediately what I ask." said the grand concubine.

"Okay, Your Majesty."

Wu Li Mei again smiled wryly, he had to avenge Empress Yang's vile deeds to her and her children. At first he only wanted to live quietly in this second life, but what would you say, when his eternal enemies never let him calm down, Wu Li Mei also had to fight to stay alive. The woman happily accepted Empress Yang's challenge to fight each other.

"Greetings, mother."

Wu Li Mei turned his head, again Zhou Ming Hao. The concubine let out a breath of air, as the son always insisted on coming with her to the market.

"No, not this time!" wu Li Mei.

"Mommyuuu.. Come on, I'm not going to mess around, I just want to help you."

"I'm not talking shit."

"Mom, you're gonna need me there."

"Again, my energy is quite useful not." he added to convince the mother.

Wu Li Mei paid no heed, the woman with the simple yellow hanfu continued her steps out of the pavilion. At the end of a cloudy weekend, Wu Li Mei will return to visit the market. He must continue to monitor the progress of his small pharmacy, even though his name may not be a pharmacy.

"Greetings, Mother."

"Xiao Yin?"

"I also want to help, ma'am." said the young girl, a sweet smile blooming on her face.

The concubine rounded her eyes, how could Zhou Fang Yin know. Wu Li Mei stared intently at the son, while the prince grimaced while scratching his neck.

Zhou Fang Yin's grasp distracted the concubine, "Mom, I promise I won't tell anyone this."

"But.... "

"Where do you know that?"

"I accidentally saw you enter a building in the market, out of curiosity so I asked brother." Wu Li Mei glanced at the sharp son, "I forced him, ma'am. Don't punish sister ma'am."

Zhou Fang Yin fused his palms together on his chest, he looked at the expectant mother. How not, hearing a fleeting explanation from the brother really made him curious. The mother will open a drugstore, of course she will be very happy to help there.

After quite a long debating with his own thoughts, Wu Li Mei finally nodded. The woman could only shake her head as her two children cheered in excitement.

Not what, but bringing the two children together will make it even more striking. Wu Li Mei did not want this plan to be known to many people, the more he knew then the more he wanted to destroy what he made. Even if it works for good.

"Mom, what's the name of that drugstore later?" Zhou Fang Yin walked beside Wu Li Mei, his hand always embracing the mother's arm. After the incident at the lake, mother and son

Wu Li Mei sniffed her shoulders, "Mother hasn't thought about it."

"What about the drug house?" cetus Ming Hao's.

"No, I think it's gonna sound weird." refused the sister. "How about a herbal house?"

Zhou Ming Hao clucked, "Oh come on, that sounds ancient."

"Then what? Drugstore? Home remedies? Treatment shop?"

Ming Hao shook his head firmly, "We should think of something unique and never existed?"

"Rapid!" Wu Li Mei flicked her finger, "Yes, pharmacy."

"Apo....tek?" repeated Fang Yin, he felt foreign to the word. "Is that some kind of medicine, ma'am?"

Wu Li Mei shook her head, "No, that is the name of the mother's drugstore. A.. po... tek!"

The two children still nodded even though they did not understand the mother's intentions.

"Yes, that sounds good."

...****************...

Lan Suo, that feisty young man had already cleaned Wu Li Mei's medicinal shop since morning blind. He was assisted by his younger brother, Meng Suo, shoulder to shoulder guard the concubine's drug store.

Yesterday, the concubine's order rack came, they immediately arranged some herbs in it, according to Madam Wu's orders, that's how they called Wu Li Mei. The two young men are now responsible for maintaining the drug store, as a form of return, as well, wu Li Mei asked them to be the drugstore keeper when the store was open later, the concubine certainly could not visit every day, so he needs someone he can trust to work with.

"Greetings, Madam." greet the two young men, they put down their cleaning tools and bow respectfully to Wu Li Mei.

"Rise."

The Suo brothers looked at the astonished madam, more precisely towards the beautiful girl of Zhou Ming Hao's age.

Realizing that, Wu Li Mei chuckled softly. "Include me, this is Xiao Yin, my daughter."

Zhou Fang Yin lowered his head as a sign of respect, as the two simple-looking young men before him looked older.

"Greetings."

"Greetings, Miss."

Zhou Ming Hao embraced the younger brother, "You don't need to call him miss, just call Xiao Yin, just like me, big brother." he said. "All right, sister?"

Zhou Fang Yin nodded stiffly, "Yes, yes of course."

"By the way, you look a lot like Lady Wu, Xiao Yin." Meng Suo replied, she saw the madam talking to Lan Suo, "But, you two are indeed very similar ya."

Ming Hao shook his head, "No!"

"No!" reject Fang Yin.

"Alright, alright, you are indeed twins." Meng Suo replied. The three of them became quickly familiar due to the fairly close age distance.

Zhou Fang Yin observed the brother blending in well, the crown prince was very different when he was outside the palace. The Zhou Ming Hao he knew, was always quiet, gluttonous, cold and annoying.

While on the trip earlier, Zhou Ming Hao told him a lot about the Suo brothers, the drugstore guards belonging to the mother. The Suo brothers did not know their true identity, only knowing that the mother must have come from the nobility.

"We've arranged dried herbs on the shelf, madam. In accordance with the contents of your letter." reported Lan Suo.

Wu Li Mei smiled then nodded, they are quite useful she thought. Even though they used to be vagabonds but the Suo brothers could read and write, this is what the concubine considered when she wanted to hire them.

"And, yesterday the dried herbs of Xiang Country have arrived, Madam." Meng Suo pointed at one corner of the room.

The older brother nodded, "Yes, ma'am, we put it there because we don't know where to put it."

"Leave it there, I'll check it out."

Wu Li Mei asked Dayang Yi to take out a precious treasure that had been in the ladyboy's bag earlier.

"What is that, Madam?"

"This....?" Wu Li Mei opened the slightly red-colored scroll in his hand, something he called a precious treasure. "This is a collection of drugs and their benefits."

Meng Suo frowned, "Oo, like Physician Zhong's handbook?"

"Tabib Zhong is visiting?"

Lan Suo nodded, the young man recalled the few people who sent the shelves yesterday. "Yes, Madam. Together with some men dressed as soldiers came yesterday, they brought these shelves."

Wu Li Mei nodded, "You guys have read it?"

"Only a glance, Madam. We're busy putting up shelves." Lan Suo scratched her neck while scowling, Physician Zhong also advised her and her sister to read books on herbs while there was free time.

"It looks like today will be busy." Wu Li Mei said.
