The Number One Dandy Volume 1 Arriving in Great Tang Chapter 2 You Must Agree to Worry-Free

  On a stormy night, a train was speeding along like lightning, when suddenly another train appeared on the same track in front of it, moving slowly. The screeching sound of the brakes and sparks flying from the wheels scraping against the rails filled the air as the two trains collided under the massive force of inertia. Inside the carriage, countless people were thrown from their seats and crashed into the shattered and deformed carriage walls. Cries of agony erupted everywhere, with blood and flesh scattered all around...

  "Ah!" Wang Chuyun cried out in agony, suddenly sitting up from the bed, her heart racing wildly, and sweat all over her body.

  This mournful cry frightened the two pretty little maids who were dozing off by the bedside, and they immediately got up and rushed to Wang Chuyun's side, asking in terror: "Young master, what's wrong with you?"

  The plump little maid in white clothes took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Wang Chuyun's face.

  A faint scent wafted up, bringing Wang Chuyun back to her senses. She met the worried faces of the two little maids with an awkward smile. "Qing'er, Xue'er, Young Master is fine, he just had a nightmare!" she said, exhaling slowly.

  I wish everything that happened in my dream was just a dream and not something that actually happened.

  Hearing Wang Chuyun say this, the two little maids finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  Xue Er, the little maid in white, wiped away the sweat on Wang Chuyun's face and neck, then said softly: "Young master, lie down for a while longer, I'll go with Qing'er to fetch some water to help you clean up and change your clothes, look at how sweaty you are!"

  Wang Chuyun nodded and lay down obediently. The two little maidservants quietly left to fetch water and clean clothes for Wang Chuyun.

  Watching the two little maidservants leave, Wang Chuyun lay down again and stared at the antique decorations in the room with wide eyes, recalling the "nightmare" she had just experienced, feeling a bit unbelievable and deeply moved.

  It's been seven days since he traveled through time and space to the Tang Dynasty. Everything that belonged to him has changed completely. He is now called He Lan Minzhi, no longer Wang Chuyun. In the "later generations" that he was very familiar with and missed dearly, Wang Chuyun's life had come to an end on July 23rd, near Wenzhou, on a stormy day, after losing his life in a high-speed train accident, his soul traveled through time and space to the Tang Dynasty, transforming into another person named He Lan Minzhi.

  Seven days passed, and the reborn He Lan Mingzhe had basically adapted to life in the Tang Dynasty and accepted his new identity: as the younger brother of Wu Zetian, son of Wu Shun who was conferred the title "Korean Lady", a seventeen-year-old young master who could be considered an imperial relative, an unexpectedly handsome super idol, even more handsome than the He Lan Mingzhe played by Jiao Zhimin in the TV series he watched before crossing over.

  He Lan Minzhi's mother, Wu Shun, and her younger sister, He Lan Minyue, were also exceptionally beautiful. The two sisters looked very similar, with delicate facial features that seemed to have been sculpted by a master craftsman. Their height of nearly 1.7 meters and their almost perfect figures would make most women jealous. Not to mention the nobility and elegance that emanated from them, which was something that those artificial beauties of later generations completely lacked.

  He Lan Minzhi's father, He Lan Anshi, had passed away due to illness over a decade ago. Her mother, Wu Shun, did not remarry and single-handedly raised He Lan Minzhi and her sister, He Lan Minyue, into adulthood. At that time, Wu Zetian was not yet the empress, and this family often suffered bullying from Wu Shun's several half-brothers, living a very hard life. It wasn't until recent years when Wu Shun was summoned to Chang'an by Wu Zetian, and after being conferred as the Lady of Korea by the emperor, that their situation changed, becoming people with esteemed status within Chang'an city.

  On the third day after crossing over, He Lan Minzhi finally understood from his sister He Lan Minyue why his "original body" was injured. The process of events was a bit laughable and tearful: it turned out that the "previous body" He Lan Minzhi had an argument with his mother Wu Shun about whether to follow her to Luoyang, and He Lan Minzhi, who didn't want to go, couldn't persuade his mother, who wanted to go to Luoyang. In a huff, he stormed off, but in his haste, he collided with a cabinet by the door, causing a large flower vase on top of it to fall over and hit him squarely on the head, knocking him unconscious.

  As he stroked the still painful wound on his head, He Lan Minzhi also felt a sense of melancholy. His "previous body" was too pathetic, having been hit by a flower vase placed at home and replaced by the soul of this transmigrator.

  But thinking about his fate is almost the same, taking a train and having an accident, being sent back to the Tang Dynasty by some unknown force.

  Apart from the injury, He Lan Minzhi also learned a lot of things he wanted to know through his sister He Lan Minyue's words, but many things he couldn't fully understand, and yet he couldn't ask directly, so he could only suppress the things he didn't understand in his heart, waiting for an opportunity to slowly figure them out later.

  Born into such a noble family, with a handsome face, He Lan Min felt fortunate, but at the same time, he also felt a little regret and unease. Although in his later years, he was a Chinese major and had some interest in history, he knew very little about the historical era of He Lan Min's time. The main reason was that the reign titles of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were too complicated, with possibly two reign titles in one year. This couple also liked to change the names of official titles in the imperial court, such as Tian Guan, Di Guan, Dong Tai, Xi Tai... just looking at this period of history made people's heads ache. He didn't have the interest to study it, so he only had a rough understanding of this period of history. Those relatively famous figures were slightly known to him, but for Wu Shun and He Lan Min, who were not well-documented in historical records, he knew almost nothing!

  It can be said that even if he traveled through time now, he would still be unable to predict what's going to happen.

  Being a relative of Wu Zetian is not always a good thing, considering this ruthless woman would even strangle her own daughter to death and had several sons either killed or left half-dead. Thinking about the day she would have to face this legendary woman directly, He Lan Minzhi felt an inexplicable fear. Without any knowledge of history, unaware of what fate had in store for He Lan Minzhi in the past, it really makes one feel uneasy!

  Light footsteps approached, and two little maidservants returned, interrupting He Lan Minzhi's thoughts and pulling him back to reality.

  "Master, let me help you clean up a bit!" said Xue Er, the little maid, as she walked over to He Lan Min's side and spoke softly.

  He Lan Min nodded slightly, and with the support of two little maids, she got up and sat down.

  Xue'er gently helped He Lan Minzhi take off her outer clothes, leaving only her underclothes and underwear. Qing'er picked up a wet towel from the water basin, wrung out the excess water, and together with Xue'er, helped He Lan Minzhi wipe her body clean as she lay down again.

  A warm feeling spread through his body, making He Lan Min feel comfortable and wanting to shout out. The fragrance emanating from the two young maids was a tempting scent of youthful beauty, their small hands touching his skin unintentionally, giving him a smooth and slippery sensation. Their slightly heavy breathing also made He Lan Min's heart flutter with excitement, and he couldn't help but gaze at the two naive young maids in front of him with a hint of predation in his eyes.

  Under He Lan Min's gaze, which was a little too close and somewhat unwholesome, the two little maids who were carefully wiping him down both blushed and became even more bashful, their movements also becoming somewhat unnatural. He Lan Min could even feel the hands that were wiping his body trembling.

  Qing'er and Xue'er were two maidservants in He Lan Min's household, both fifteen years old this year. They were pretty and could be considered beauties that stood out from a hundred. The two young girls' daily attire and dressing style were very similar, and their heights were almost the same, making it not easy to tell them apart at a distance. The difference between them was that Xue'er had a plump and round face, and her personality was slightly more outgoing, while Qing'er was slender and elegant, speaking in a soft and gentle voice, which made people want to love and pamper her.

  He Lan Min Zhi was injured, and the two little maids were heartbroken, often with red eyes, which was because they secretly hid to wipe away tears. After He Lan Min Zhi could get out of bed, they felt a bit better, no longer hiding to cry, and there were smiles on their faces.

  They also served He Lanming with great care. In the few days after He Lanming woke up, his mother Wu Shun did not let him get out of bed and had him lie down all the time. Everything in his daily life, including eating, drinking, and using the toilet, was taken care of by the two little maids.

  It's not the first time she has washed her body like this today, but the previous times didn't have such an ambiguous atmosphere! He Lan Min was afraid that she would have some uncomfortable reaction on her body later, so she closed her eyes and enjoyed the thoughtful service of the two little maids.

  Seeing He Lan Min close her eyes, the two women obviously let out a sigh of relief, and their wiping movements also became more natural.

  Two little maidservants, their faces flushed, helped the now calm Hè Lán Mǐnzhī to wash and change his clothes. After that, they supported him to the dressing table and combed his hair. The little maid named Qīng ér said softly while combing: "Young Master, just a moment ago, the young lady sent someone to say that she is painting in the garden and asked you to find her there after your noon nap!"

  "Oh! I see!" He Lan Min, who was admiring his handsome reflection in the copper mirror, responded with a smile, looking at the little maid Qing Er, whose face was slightly flushed as she gazed into his eyes, "Qing Er, Min Yue... do you often paint in the garden?"

  Qing'er nodded, her face even redder as she spoke in an increasingly gentle tone, "Yes, young master! In the past, every time the young lady painted, she would always ask you to take a look. She said... only with you by her side could she create good works of art..."

  "Oh! Then I'll go right away... You guys hurry up!" He Lan Min was getting impatient.

  "Yes, young master!" The two little maids immediately quickened their pace, nimbly helping the young man tidy up his appearance, putting on a forehead bandage to cover his wound, and then retreating to one side.

  He Lan Minzhi stood up from in front of the dresser, looked at the two little maids with a somewhat strange expression, and smiled: "Xue Er, Qing Er, let's go watch Minyue paint. You two lead the way!"

  "Yes! Young Master!" The two little maids responded clearly and brought some necessary things, following He Lanming out of the house.

  He Lan Min walked slowly with his hands behind his back, led by two young maidservants, towards the place where He Lan Min Yue was staying.

  He Lan Minzhi had never been outside the courtyard where he lived in the mansion before. In recent days, his mother Wu Xun had kept him indoors to rest and recover from his injuries, with everything taken care of by two young maidservants. Today was finally a chance for him to go out and get some fresh air, and he thought that no matter what, he would take the opportunity to thoroughly explore the mansion and familiarize himself with his new surroundings after crossing over.

  It was the warm spring season of February, and the willow branches in the mansion were sprouting green, the peach blossoms were beginning to bloom, and the plum blossoms were in full bloom. The scene was full of vitality, and even the air was filled with a fresh scent that was intoxicating. He Lanming greedily took a few deep breaths.

  I don't know anything about the situation in Fucheng, and I don't know where my sister He Lan Minyue is. He Lan Min can only follow the two little maids.

  Two young maidservants brought He Lanming to the front yard of the mansion. The front yard was near a pavilion where red plum blossoms were in full bloom, with a table and soft couch set up. A large group of women surrounded the table, but there was not a sound, they were watching a beautiful young girl wearing a green dress paint.

  When they saw He Lan Minzhi approaching, those maidservants hastily bowed and retreated to one side.

  The beautiful girl who was painting saw He Lan Minzhi coming over, immediately put down her brush, ran over with small steps, held He Lan Minzhi's hand and said in a soft voice: "Brother, why did you come so late? Minyue has been waiting for you for a long time, this painting is almost finished!"

  This is He Lan Minzhi's younger sister, He Lan Minyue, a beautiful and dazzling young girl.

  "Didn't you just tell your brother to take a nap?" He Lan Minzhi asked with a smile.

  These days, He Lan Minzhi was accompanied by two small maidservants, as well as his sister He Lan Minyue and mother Wu Shun. Although Wu Shun was often busy with matters in the large Korean noblewoman's estate, He Lan Minyue spent more time by his side. The brotherly love between them had grown stronger over the days they spent together, and after He Lan Minzhi accepted the fact of his transmigration and adapted to his new identity, he fully acknowledged this lovely and adorable sister. These days, apart from asking her about things he wanted to know, he often joked with her, and their close relationship was naturally revealed. He had a deep affection for this endearing sister.

  "Minyue still thought her brother would only take a short nap!" He Lan Minyue giggled and pulled He Lan Minzhi to the desk where she had just finished painting, pointing at the almost completed painting and asked proudly: "Brother, what do you think of this painting I did?"

  He Lan Ming was pulled to the edge of the table by He Lan Min, and the half-finished painting on the table made him stunned. He didn't expect that his sister, who could be described as a beauty, had such good painting skills. In just a short time, the scenery in the garden was all incorporated into the painting: a few casual strokes of ink perfectly presented the trees and rocks, behind which was a hidden wall, on top of which several willow branches were swaying in the wind, and a few branches of apricot blossoms had just burst forth, and the spring colors in the garden leapt onto the paper!

  Unfortunately, the painting was not yet fully completed, and some finishing touches had not been added, but this already made people feel shocked, and also made He Lan Min self-deprecating, he thought that even if he died, he could not create such a painting.

  He Lan Min gazed at the painting for a while, but didn't say anything. He Lan Min Yue felt a bit anxious and shook He Lan Min's arm again, asking: "Brother, what do you think of this painting?"

  "Minyue, this painting of yours is too good, I'm not even comparable! Hehe!" Helan Minzhi said, taking a step back and tilting his head to look at Helan Minyue. "Minyue, this painting isn't even finished yet, brother... just stand by the side and watch you finish it, how about that?"

  He Lan Minyue was overjoyed. "That's great, I originally wanted you to come and see me paint today, but... brother, Minyue has a request, you must agree!"

  "What's required?"
