Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation
Chapter 62: The Courtesan in the Novel Where the Woman Disguised as a Man (Completed)
Now, Bai Jin'an is completely out of her mind, thinking about how she sacrificed everything for a man.
He was filled with remorse; if the ending hadn't been so bad, he would have loved to kill the version of himself he remembered.
This time, Bai Jin'an was more experienced than in his previous life.
He made a silent vow that this time he could only be a man and would never reveal his true identity.
Moreover, with another scoundrel to take revenge on, Bai Jin'an was full of motivation.
After making arrangements for Su Su, Bai Jin'an began to meticulously plan his path of revenge.
He carefully analyzed the situation, searching for Shangguan Ming's weaknesses and how to bring down the Crown Prince.
Furthermore, he skillfully maneuvered among various forces by utilizing his memories from his previous life.
However, as Bai Jin'an became increasingly favored by the emperor, his rise undoubtedly made him a target for the princes to win over, and the Ninth Prince, Shangguan Ming, could no longer resist.
After Bai Jin'an finished his court session, Shangguan Ming stopped him and invited him to have a drink.
Bai Jin'an looked at Shangguan Ming in front of him, and alarm bells rang in his mind.
He clenched his fingers, trying to force his tense body to relax.
He knew that what was bound to happen would happen eventually. In his previous life, it was because of this drunkenness that Shangguan Ming discovered his true identity as a woman, which led to a series of tragedies.
Bai Jin'an's eyes flickered slightly as he quickly considered how to respond.
He cannot repeat the same mistake; he must find a way to resolve this crisis.
He slightly raised his chin, revealing a composed smile. "Since the Ninth Prince has invited me, how could I dare refuse?"
After saying that, he and Shangguan Ming went to a private room in the restaurant.
The atmosphere in the private room seemed relaxed, but undercurrents were actually running deep.
After realizing that Bai Jin'an refused his offer of a hand, the Ninth Prince recalled the information from the people he had previously planted. With a fierce glint in his eyes, he kept probing Bai Jin'an, trying to find flaws in his words and actions.
Bai Jin'an responded cautiously, carefully considering every word he uttered, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
The Ninth Prince tried to get Bai Jin'an to drink, even though Bai Jin'an kept refusing. Shangguan Ming, however, seemed not to understand human speech and just kept trying to get Bai Jin'an to drink.
The wine given by Shangguan Ming is not to be drunk casually. It is a wine that is fragrant but easy to get drunk on. This kind of wine is the easiest to get information out of people.
Shangguan Ming used this method to find fault with those officials and make them loyal to him.
He subtly diverted Shangguan Ming's attention by discussing court affairs, while simultaneously observing Shangguan Ming's reaction.
Seeing Bai Jin'an's caution, Shangguan Ming became increasingly suspicious.
He began to probe more directly, bringing up topics that only women would be interested in, observing Bai Jin'an's reaction. Bai Jin'an was startled, but quickly regained his composure, responding from a man's perspective and in a man's tone, revealing no flaws.
However, Shangguan Ming did not give up.
But just as he was preparing for his next move, a maid rushed in, crying and looking for Bai Jin'an.
It is said that Miss Biao suddenly fainted and could not be woken up no matter how hard she was called.
Bai Jin'an hurriedly bid farewell to the Ninth Prince, his flustered appearance showing great concern for Su Su.
Bai Jin'an escaped a disaster for the time being at this drinking party.
But he knew that Shangguan Ming would not give up easily, and he had to be more careful and cautious to prepare for the challenges ahead.
Although Bai Jin'an breathed a huge sigh of relief upon returning to his residence, the tension in his heart eased slightly.
But the worry in her heart followed her like a shadow. She was really worried about Su Su, afraid that something might have really happened to her.
Su Su, who was pretending to faint, keenly sensed Bai Jin'an's arrival.
She shifted slightly, then slowly opened her eyes. A hint of concern flashed in her bright eyes.
"Are you alright?" Bai Jin'an asked anxiously, his voice full of worry.
Su Su gently shook her head and said, "Are you alright? I knew something was wrong when I saw you hadn't come back yet."
"Thank you," Bai Jin'an said sincerely, his eyes filled with gratitude.
Su Su simply patted Bai Jin'an's shoulder gently and said, "Who are we? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to leave my family and would still be their tool for making money. I would never have been able to raise enough money to leave there."
"What are you still worried about?" Su Su asked, seeing that Bai Jin'an didn't seem happy.
Her eyes were filled with doubt, not understanding why Bai Jin'an was still so worried.
“The Ninth Prince is rather arrogant. He firmly believes in his intuition, so even though he didn’t succeed this time, he will still doubt me.” Bai Jin’an frowned slightly, his tone full of helplessness.
She knew the Ninth Prince Shangguan Ming's personality well; once he set his sights on someone, it would be difficult to get rid of them.
Before Su Su could even offer to help him kill Shangguan Ming, she heard Bai Jin'an say, "Make him an enemy of the Crown Prince!"
A resolute glint flashed in Bai Jin'an's eyes, as if he had already made up his mind.
Su Su nodded and said, "He was your husband in your past life, you..."
She was somewhat worried, after all, once people fall in love, they forget about enemies.
“No, the moment he made me empress and refused to share power, I stopped trusting and liking him.” Bai Jin’an’s tone was resolute, his eyes filled with determination.
He knew that there was no longer any affection between him and Shangguan Ming.
"However, aside from the Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince, the other princes are either weak, incompetent, or immoral. I'm afraid the world will descend into chaos..."
Bai Jin'an sighed softly, her heart filled with worry. Although she wanted revenge, she didn't want to bring harm to the people of the world because of it.
He knew that the peace and tranquility of the people was the most important thing.
“It’s alright! If we can’t choose a prince, we can choose a princess! The eldest princess is quite good; she’s both literate and skilled in martial arts, no less than any man. Moreover, she has ambitions. I believe she doesn’t just want to be a docile princess; otherwise, she wouldn’t have approached the General’s Mansion.”
Bai Jin'an's eyes lit up when he heard Su Su's suggestion.
Having played the role of a man for so long, his thinking has indeed become somewhat fixed without him realizing it.
This way of thinking is not good, Bai Jin'an secretly warned himself.
After discussing some specific matters with Su Su, Su Su was to approach the eldest princess with the clear goal of killing the ninth prince and the crown prince, helping the eldest princess ascend the throne, and striving to make her the empress.
The eldest princess's involvement made Bai Jin'an's revenge much smoother, and Su Su made a behind-the-scenes plan.
They'll do anything, however ruthless they may be, leaving no way out for anyone.
With the death of the old emperor, the eldest princess, through the meticulous planning of Bai Jin'an and Su Su, as well as her own courage and intelligence, successfully became empress.
Thanks to their efforts, women's status has significantly improved. Women who were once considered appendages of men now have more opportunities and rights.
Many talented women responded enthusiastically, distinguishing themselves in officialdom through their wisdom and hard work. They proved with their actions that women are no less capable than men and can equally contribute to the country and its people.
