Bao Bao started to read the information on the current world.
The world's setting was set in ancient China. The country that Ains was in was called Xuan Xing. In this world there is another race called Ger beside the female and male genders. They had the appearance of males, but they had the ability to produce children. They had an eye catching cinnabar mark located somewhere on their body. The purer and darker the red color was, the higher the Ger's fertility rate is.
The Ger's origin could be found all the way back to the origin of their ancestors. Back then they were scorned for being having such a body and were seen less than dirt. Then, humanity had suffered a calamity where the female's fertility rate suddenly dropped and they had to face the impending doom that their population would decline. At first, the humans were in denial and refused to accept that a female could not become pregnant. Over time, the population dwindled in numbers as less and less babies were birthed.
It was alarming as the world's population became dangerously low. Then the news spread about the miraculous birthing abilities of the Gers. Many women's birthing rate had the males in favor over the females, while the Ger can have female, male, and other Ger. Their offspring were also much more beautiful and healthier than those who were given birth to by the females.
Afterwards, the Ger came into popularity and became a treasure. In order to ensure the population growth would increase the emperor of Xuan Xing issued a law that all Ger were to be married by the age of eighteen. Anyone who was unmarried but were of age were to be reported to the local authorities and they would be assigned a husband.
Ains' body was a Ger called Xu XiuLan. His cinnabar mark was located on his inner left thigh and wouldn't be visible unless, one was to undress him and looked for it. He only knew of this because Tu HeJian had informed him of it when they had bathed together that one time. It was a deep and pure red color, indicating that he had a very high fertility rate.
He was a loyal follower of the initial villain, Tu HuaLi's half-brother, Tu HeJian. Although he was a Ger, he was born with complications; he was blind. His family was very poor and didn't care whether he would live or not as he was a hassle to raise. They had also missed his cinnabar mark and he was soon thrown out onto the streets. He was forced to fend for himself at the young age of seven.
Xu XiuLan lived for three months on the streets drinking dirty water or looking through the trash for food. Because no one could see his cinnabar mark and his beauty was covered by the soot, no one knew that Xu XiuLan was a Ger and thought that he was just a regular beggar on the street.
Over time, it proved to be very difficult for Xu XiuLan to live, as the other beggars would bully him out of food or kick him out of his resting area. He already had a hard enough time looking for resources because of his disability, thus this was just pushing him to his death by taking away what he had so painstakingly found for his use. By the time Tu HeJian had rescued him, Xu XiuLan was about to pay a visit to Old Lady Meng¹. He had come across the area as they were heading back to the imperial palace when he came upon a very emaciated Xu XiuLan. Tu HeJian felt sympathetic towards Xu XiuLan and took him back with him to his courtyard.
Xu XiuLan had seen the harshest in life and had only known cruelty so when he was met with Tu HeJian's kindness he was skeptic. He would be like an injured animal whose fur was standing on end and swiping it's paws at anything that came close, hiding it's injuries. It took a full half a year before Xu XiuLan was able to lower his guard and trust Tu HeJian.
As they spent more and more time together, Xu XiuLan grew to adore his savior. Xu XiuLan wanted to do whatever he could to help Tu HeJian as repayment for rescuing him, and so he volunteered to be an informant placed inside of one of Tu HeJian's secret establishments. The other reason was because, he knew that his love would be impossible with Tu HeJian. Not just how different their statuses were, it was also because he had given up on what his body was useful for. He did not want their children to have to go through the same difficulty that he had to and decided that he would watch from afar as he supported him.
Tu HeJian wanted to refuse at first but Xu XiuLan was adamant on leaving, so he could only agree. He allowed Xu XiuLan to go, but he was only allowed to sell the service of the four arts². Gathering information by night in the bustling imperial city, he would relaying anything of importance and in those minisucle interactions, that Xu XiuLan and Tu HeJian would talk to each other. A life in isolation and solitude from others, that was the way that Xu XiuLan chose to live.
The main male protagonist of this world was Zuo NaLi. He was the son of a rich merchant and was also a Ger. He was living a happy-go-lucky life until his family met with misfortune and everything was taken away. Every single family member was arrested and taken to jail for colluding and aiding an enemy country. They were ill treated in the jail cell and lived a life worse than dogs in the street. Many of family members were raped and then beheaded later.
Now Zuo NaLi was reborn one year before the tragic events took place, and he will try and do everything to stop his family from their downfall. He doesn't want a repeat of the past to happen, and so he investigated his own family to the best of his ability but found no conclusive evidence that his family had been involved in any illegal activities.
He became enraged that they were falsely accused then and suffered through torturous methods. He had a long life ahead of him then and it was simply taken away from him due to some false accusations. He, Zuo NaLi then swore an oath filled with resentment against the current emperor to repay for what had happened in his past life. All his suffering and pain would be repaid, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Zuo NaLi then started to plan a way to exact revenge.
Because of his rebirth, he had knowledge of the events that happened in the past, and recognized some of the men that would be around the emperor.
One as such was Wu QingJue. He was the emperor's right hand man. Someone who the emperor had grown up with and had been study mates with sice they were young. He had planned to use Wu QingJue to achieve his revenge.
First, he had met up with Wu QingJue coincidentally and befriended the man. Then, he began to sowed discord between Wu QingJue and Tu HuaLi. As it was during this time that the emperor's investigation was ongoing and would've led to his family's downfall. He spent time with Wu QingJue and showed how 'good' they were so that he could have a backer, as Wu QingJue was the only other man who the emperor would listen to and could speak up without the fear of their head getting lopped off other than his half brother.
Zuo NaLi had been in love with Tu HeJian in his previous life and knew of his docile and kind nature, what he didn't know was if Tu HeJian was involved with his family's demise or not. But he couldn't let him live as he knew how their deep his and Tu HuaLi's brotherly bond went. If his brother died, who could say that the other would not try and exact revenge upon him?
As time went on, Zuo NaLi fell more and more in love with Wu QingJue and became troubled over it. He felt that he didn't need love and only needed to focus on saving his family. Everything could come after, was what he had initially thought of. He struggled with accepting his feelings and soon distanced himself from Wu QingJue.
Wu QingJue too noticed that he had fallen in love with Zuo NaLi's straightforward and fearless personality. So when he noticed that the Ger was distancing himself from him, he chased after him. He professed his love to Zuo NaLi and the man returned his feelings in the same manner. Zuo NaLi was a person who would use every means to get the results that he needed, and so at the same time he also used this chance to 'hint' that his family was in danger of getting targeted by the current emperor.
Wu QingJue assured his lover that nothing would happen to his family and conducted some investigation in secret. Zuo NaLi would often tag along the way so that he could spend time with Wu QingJue. He would curve and infer upon the things that they had discovered. The times they spent together let the two uncover many dark secrets about the imperial family, how the old emperor's incest love led to the birth of Tu HuaLi, how Tu HuaLi killed all of his other siblings, and how the old emperor's decree had been altered.
This was the final rift that separated Wu QingJue and Tu HuaLi. He didn't want to believe it at first as he grew up with Tu HuaLi and thought that he knew the man best. But when his childhood friend admitted to it, he felt anger that Tu HuaLi had done such actions. He was a righteous type of person and saw Tu HuaLi's actions as wrong doings.
Soon after, Zuo NaLi fed him with the idea of overthrowing the current emperor to create a better living society for everyone, where they wouldn't feel oppressed or lived in fear.
The two of them set off on their conquest and gradually turned the officials over to their side one by one as well as dig out the current emperor's pillars of support.
Matters somehow leaked out that current emperor was the offspring of a illicit and muddy relationship of the old emperor and his elder sister. The consort becoming pregnant and that was what led her to her death. The shame of it all, she could not bear it and took her own life and left the bastard child to live on his own. That wasn't the only news that had gotten leaked as whispers that Tu HuaLi wasn't the rightful heir to the throne had somehow found its way out.
