Rebirth Handbook

In the 870th year of the ephemeris, about 400 years ago, there was a riot in the empire. After that, all the natural abilities involved were called heretics, including the Taoism cultivation of the ancient East, and the magic witches of the West. These heretics were publicly executed, and people were forbidden to explore or even touch them regarding their abilities.

In the next one hundred years, we entered the era of new technology, and people's lives changed rapidly with the development of technology. At the same time, people gradually forgot those distant stories about cultivation, fairy, witches, and so on. Up to now, almost all people no longer know the existence of those heretics, spells and magic, and it has become a kind of forgotten civilization.

But Wuli is a witch, her mother is a witch, and her mother said that her grandma is also a witch, they are the so-called heretics that have been obliterated by the empire. Because of this, Wuli has lived with his mother on this remote planet since birth, far away from all the people.

She had no human partners since she was a child, except for her mother, she couldn't see other human beings. Only when she went to buy food every month, her mother would take her to remote cities. Only then can Wuli see real people and understand how normal humans should live.

At the age of twelve, Wuli's mother had passed away, and she was left alone here, guarding this house away from the crowd. The talking house elves in the house were made by her mother with magic, in order to make Wuli less lonely and to take better care of her.

Wuli has been an obedient child since she was a child, perhaps because she rarely communicates with normal humans. Sometimes she is different from ordinary children——

"Someone will come later. You are not allowed to speak or speak out, don't you know? Otherwise, I will be taken away by them and locked up!" Wuli ordered everyone in the house to clean the house early in the morning. Then repeat this sentence for the 66th time.

The oldest grandfather at the table said: "Good little master, we all know, don't worry."

Wuli looked around at the neat things in the house with his hips crossed, and then nodded solemnly, "Okay, from now on, pretend to be an ordinary house and stop talking!"

Wuli wore the most beautiful dress today, her hair was neatly combed, and she also picked many wild flowers outside to decorate the room. After making all preparations, she fidgeted in the room waiting for visitors.

On this day in the previous life, someone sent by her elder brother found her, presented various certificates, and asked to take her to the capital star to reunite with her brother. She was tired of staying here in her previous life, and she was very happy that she suddenly had a new relative, so she happily packed her things and followed.

Then four years later, she died and returned. Looking back, it was a particularly bad four years.

Wuli rubbed his face, cheering for himself in his heart. "Yes, take courage, and reject them altogether this time!"

When it was almost noon, Wuli heard a small sound from the sky outside, like a humming sound. coming! She bulged her cheeks, stood up from the chair, poking her head and looking out the window.

Sure enough, an aircraft stopped on a hillside not far away, and three people walked off the aircraft. The man in front is very old, with gray hair, but in good spirits, wearing neat and decent housekeeper clothes, with a slight smile on his face, behind him are two young men, a man and a woman, both looking very capable and serious.

Huh-Wu Li patted his chest and felt relieved. As in the previous life, her brother did not come in person, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

The three people Wuli had met, or rather familiar. The old grandfather in front is the old housekeeper of the Cui family. It is said that he has served the Cui family for a hundred years and served four generations of the family head. After she went to the Cui family in the last life, only this old housekeeper was very kind to her. The man and woman at the back were the right-hand men of her serious brother. After his brother was killed and died, he became her assistant and helped her a lot.

But they still don't like her because they don't think she can compare to her brother. Wuli admits that she is indeed inferior to her brother. After the sudden death of her elder brother, she took over the Cui family, but she could not do anything. She was also robbed of many things belonging to the Cui family. In the end, she could only choose to marry the royal family to ensure that the Cui family would not continue to be embezzled. At that time, she was almost pushed forward by all the stakeholders of the Cui family, isolated and helpless.

That was too tiring, Wu Li still felt his scalp tingling after thinking about it. She is only sixteen years old now, four years later when she died, she was just over twenty. In the empire, the average life expectancy of people reached one hundred and fifty. Twenty was the age of adulthood. If she died too early, she didn't even know who was assassinated by her.

"Hello, we are from Capital Star." The old butler knocked on the door and said with a smile.

What they said was no different from the previous life, but Wuli didn’t have the excitement of the previous life. She sat in a hurry and listened to the words of the old housekeeper, and then nodded solemnly, “I understand, but I don’t want to leave here, so I ask you to ask My elder brother apologized."

The old butler and the two behind him were a bit surprised. After all, based on the information they knew, this little girl who had no knowledge of the world should have won it well, but now it seems that it is not like that?

The old butler did not give up. He tried to persuade Wuli in various ways, but Wuli was determined. No matter what he said, he only shook his head with a small face and did not say anything. He was stubborn and unable to persuade him. .

After staying for an afternoon and returning without success, the three old butlers were helpless, but they couldn't force the people back, so they could only go back and contact the owner, Mr. Cui Luan, to ask him what to do next.

When Cui Luan received the news, he was still processing the documents. The Empire was preparing to develop a mining star. All budgets such as expenditures and revenues required him, the Minister of Finance, to make a plan. There are also pirates in the Yellow Sea Star Territory. The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs requires the arrest of pirates. The budget of military expenditure also requires the Ministry of Finance to come up with regulations.

Just after finishing his father’s funeral, Cui Luan has not slept for nearly three days after having a backlog of two days of work. Hearing news from the old butler who was sent to pick up his sister, Cui Luan was silent for a while and said two words: "Wait."

Then he convened an impromptu meeting, called the 36 finance ministers who were about to leave work, and assigned tasks one by one. Finally, he said: "I'm going to the edge galaxy. Everyone does their job these days. , Wait until I come back to check. If there are important documents, the ministers will send them to me through personal butlers."

The Ministry of Finance is a huge department. There are more than 500 officials of the Ministry of Finance, large and small, on the Capital Star alone. There are also countless financial branches on various planets. The mechanism operation that has lasted for hundreds of years is like a huge combined machine, and the chief finance minister is the heart and the mind. As the Chief Minister of Finance, although he is very beautiful and has great power in his hands, it is probably because the work is too heavy. Every Minister of Finance in the Cui family has not lived to be 60 years old, which is generally more than 100 today. For the empire, it is dead early.

In particular, each generation of the Cui family has a single seedling, hanging tremblingly there, making people feel that one is not careful, and this centuries-old family is about to die.

"My lord, if I take the liberty, I don't know what you are planning to do in the marginal galaxy?" asked Meng Zizhen, Minister of Finance II. He and Cui Luan were both playmates when they were young and classmates when they were in school, and their relationship was better than ordinary people, so other people didn't dare to ask, but he asked.

Cui Luan glanced at him and did not speak.

Meng Zizhen was laughing at first, but couldn't laugh anymore after three seconds. In the sympathetic gaze of other colleagues, he said dryly: "Okay, your sir, your journey is smooth haha."

Cui Luan doesn't like to waste time, he is a person with super mobility, so after three hours of space jump at the speed of light, he stepped on the sunset glow to the edge of the planet where Wuli is.

Compared with the prosperous night of Capital Star, the undeveloped fringe planet looks quiet and charming in the evening, at least in Cui Luan's view.

The rolling hillsides are full of wildflowers, and a small building is built there alone, reflected in a warm orange in the afterglow of the setting sun. This small building is too old. I can’t find a house of such an old style in the glamorous Capital Star, but this kind of house full of history and life, and the lights that light up at dusk in the house, It's so... touching.

The old housekeeper and two personal assistants followed Cui Luan, and when they saw him standing in the small building overlooking the building, they couldn't help but guess in their hearts-is the owner/sir shocked by the broken house in such a remote place? Ah, let him go in that kind of room, it really feels too contradictory.

That face was the same serious no matter when and where, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking at all.

"You are waiting here, I will meet my...sister alone." Cui Luan was wearing a work suit, as if he had just walked out of an interstellar conference. The superior temperament made it impossible to say to him. No word.

The Wuli, who was about to enjoy his dinner, didn’t know who was coming. He suddenly heard a knock on the door. They thought it was the old butler. They didn’t give up and were ready to persuade them again. Who knew that when the door was opened, he was facing an expressionless face. , The whole person was like a frightened hamster, the fork in his hand fell to the ground.

Wuli was actually quite courageous. She was often called courageous. At that time, she went to the palace with the prince to see the king and the queen. She was not afraid at all, but she didn’t know why, and was always afraid of her brother. I was so scared that every time I saw him, he would change the word elder brother to elder brother to show his respect.

In Wuli’s eyes, the elder brother who was thirteen years older than herself was as majestic as a stern father. Even if he had never said a serious word to her, he did not punish her for making mistakes, but as long as one glance came over, she Just tremblingly smashed into a ball.

Although she is her elder brother, she is now the only relative in this world, but Wuli is actually not close to him, even familiar with him.

In her previous life, she was taken back to Capital Star and lived in Cui Mansion, but she rarely saw her brother because he was busy all the time, and occasionally saw him. In the coldness of his body, Wu Li did not dare to approach him. The two did not have a common language, and their growth environment was very different. Every time they stayed with their brother, Wuli would sweat cold behind his back and his feet would feel weak. It was like encountering a natural enemy. If she had a coat of fur like a rabbit, she would probably explode into a ball.

Not long afterwards, when Wuli went to the Capital Star for just one year, his brother went to other planets to discuss work. He died accidentally. After that, Wuli, who knew nothing, was forced to inherit the Cui family.

"Hello, this is Cui Luan, your brother. Excuse me, can I go in?" Cui Luan picked up the fork from the ground and looked condescendingly at the stunned sister in front of him.

Ah-worthy of being my sister, so cute. The serious-faced elder brother thought so.
