Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Ting He returned to the system space again and questioned the system with a pout:

"One hundred thousand taels of silver were exchanged for a few seconds of aura. If I hadn't felt the squeeze, I'm afraid it wouldn't have ended before I could finish it. Did you withdraw the money? Let me tell you, what the hell is this? It broke the aura. The price of pretending to be cool for a few seconds cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars. Pah, you profiteer."

The system was scolded so much that it lost its temper. It was originally a new product and had not been launched yet. The host was allowed to try it out first. Who knew it was so unsustainable? Not to mention the goddess and the fairy. As soon as it climbed up to the sky and said a few words, the halo shrank and disappeared. Fortunately, it was retracted quickly, otherwise the host's soul would have destroyed the palace.

However, the system was not to be outdone and said with its neck stiff:

"What's wrong with a few dozen seconds? Isn't it worth it to let you live forever? Besides, didn't I give you two bottles of pills? Isn't that enough compensation?"

Speaking of elixirs, Ting He slapped his head in annoyance and said:

"Oh no, I was so busy pretending that I forgot to give you the pills. What should I do? System, please think of a solution. I can't go now. If I go again, people will think I'm faking my death."

The system curled its lips and stiffened its neck. It actually forgot about it. Never mind. It could only send the props back. Oh, right, so it said:

"Host, have you forgotten that before your majesty took you to the palace, you bought a dream-entering talisman? Now it can come in handy. Use it now. Enter the dream quickly and give the elixir to your majesty. Time is running out. We are about to go to the next world. Remember, you only have one minute."

Upon hearing this, Ting He didn't bother to argue. He quickly took out the dream-entering talisman, grabbed the pill, and entered Zhao Xurao's dream.

Zhao Xurao had experienced the death of Concubine Xian, and also experienced Concubine Xian transforming into a fairy to bid farewell to him. He felt sad and aggrieved, and couldn't sleep at all. But somehow, he suddenly felt a little sleepy, and as soon as he closed his eyes, his mind magically fell into a dream.

In the dream, a mass of white mist blocked his sight. It seemed like the Qinzheng Palace or a fairyland. The two images intertwined with each other, and suddenly a soft murmur came:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

This whisper seemed to pour directly into Zhao Xurao's ears from all directions. He woke up instantly and looked around frantically until the white mist dissipated slightly, revealing the virtuous concubine in elegant attire.

His Majesty's eyes lit up and he walked quickly to the front, but he missed and passed through Concubine Xian's body.

Ting He had no time to reminisce, so he quickly got to the point:

"Your Majesty, I have to go. These two bottles of elixir can keep you and your children safe for the rest of your life. Tell them that it was He'er who failed to fulfill her responsibilities as a mother. Your Majesty, please take good care of the children for me. Goodbye, Your Majesty..."

It took less than a minute to finish saying this before Ting He quickly disappeared.

Zhao Xurao just felt that he had entered a sweet dream, but woke up in the blink of an eye. However, when he opened his eyes, he saw the same scene. He thought he was dazzled again.

Looking down, he saw two porcelain bottles standing on the table. His pupils shrank, and he quickly took them in his hands and rubbed them. Repair Pills, Detoxification Pills, a few big words were written on different bottles. He stood up almost subconsciously, repeatedly looking for something, and shouted loudly:

"He'er, He'er, please come out soon. I miss you so much."

"He'er, I know you've been here all the time, please come out, please don't leave..."

Eunuch Wang sighed softly outside the palace, feeling mixed emotions. The virtuous concubine had ascended to heaven, but His Majesty was still obsessed with her. What a fool he was.

The guards also watched His Majesty's emotions, pretending they heard nothing and letting him vent on his own. Perhaps he would get better after a while.

……

It was rumored among the people that the Crown Prince's Consort, who had been tortured by her evil mother-in-law for five years, was welcomed into the palace by His Majesty and was canonized as the Virtuous Consort.

She is married for the second time but has such a good life, everyone is envious of her.

They also heard that Concubine Xian had established a girls' school to teach girls to be independent. At first they did not understand, but later they learned that the old ministers had actually forced His Majesty to sentence Concubine Xian to death. They thought that the path of this daughter of a second marriage to become a favored concubine would be cut off.

Unexpectedly, the situation took a turn for the worse. The old ministers rebelled and were dealt with one by one by His Majesty, while the virtuous concubine who was as kind as a bodhisattva was poisoned to death by the imperial concubine.

It is said that on the day when Concubine Xian gave birth, the sky in the palace was filled with rosy clouds. After Concubine Xian gave birth and passed away, she was taken to heaven by the divine light from the sky and was said to have become an immortal and a Buddha.

People then began to take Concubine Xian seriously. If they didn't know her well, they wouldn't know. But once they got to know her well, they realized that she was truly an extraordinary woman. No wonder the gods and Buddhas in heaven paved the way for her and led her by the golden light. She was truly a role model for women and a totem of the Great Xia Dynasty.

While they were still moving back and forth on their two feet, Concubine Xian's rubber wheels had already been put into use, and the price of the frame had also been brought down. In addition to the expensive horses, the high-end customized carriage and rubber seat interior were also expensive. Other things were surprisingly cheap to buy tools to support long journeys, which was truly a benefit to the people.

I also heard that students' books were expensive, and tuition fees were even more expensive. But after the emergence of printing, the price of paper actually dropped, and students got the job of copying books to supplement their family income. They no longer had to worry about not being able to go to school, not being able to afford books, or not being able to use paper. It was truly a great contribution to the country.

I also heard that the colored glass products were not only beautiful, but also treasures that were not easily used by aristocratic families. However, since the Great Xia Kingdom had its own formula, these colored glass products could not only be made into beautiful tiles to replace window paper, but they had also gradually flowed into the homes of ordinary people. The prices also became low, making them affordable for anyone with a little money.

The cement is even more amazing. On rainy days, you can wear clothes and shoes made of rubber and they won't get wet. It is much more convenient than a straw raincoat and is very light when tucked under your armpits. Walking on the hard yet not muddy official road, you will look very energetic.

Especially poor families who valued boys over girls, would sell their unfavored daughters for a few taels of silver. Who would have known that within a few years, the girl would have become very skilled, some studying medicine, some doing needlework, and some practicing martial arts. There were actually more female shopkeepers and female accountants, and the female accountants were quite careful and never made a mistake in the accounts.

Some are happy and some are sad.

After the Prince Jing's Mansion was downgraded, Prince Jing became Marquis Jingyuan, and the hereditary system was no longer in place. He was the last marquis in the mansion.

Liu Ziyuan, once the doted son of an aristocratic family, has now become an ordinary son without his mother's love, his father's affection, and no money to squander.

Many people knew what his mother had done and despised and bullied him. After learning that he had no children, even though the son Liu Piaopiao gave birth to for him could already walk, there were so many gossips that even he himself thought that he was unable to have children and that Liu Piaopiao must have had a baby with an affair behind his back. So when facing Liu Piaopiao, he would punch and kick her, swear at her, and beat up Liu Piaopiao and her son when he was drunk.
