Kangxi said, "Don't spread this around. You should serve Yinzhen well. Now you can leave."

"Yes, this servant takes his leave."

After the man left, Kangxi couldn't help but frown, wondering why Yinzhen would suddenly decide to study Buddhist scriptures.

Regardless of the reason for this idea, the royal family cannot produce a prince who becomes a monk.

Yinzhen was indeed studying Buddhist scriptures, but his purpose was not to become a monk.

His dream was so magical, and after waking up, he found that he inexplicably understood things that he had not learned in books. This was too fantastical, and he wanted to try to find the answer in Buddhist scriptures or Taoist books.

However, because the Buddhist scriptures were sought first, the misunderstanding arose.

Kangxi found a time to call Yinzhen over alone.

"Your son greets Your Majesty."

"You're here. Sit down and let's talk."

"Thank you, Father Emperor."

Kangxi looked at Yinzhen and suddenly didn't know how to start. After a while, Yinzhen saw that his father was not speaking, so he said, "Father, did you call me here because you have something to tell me?"

Kangxi shook his head, then revealed his purpose: "I've heard that you've recently taken a liking to Buddhist scriptures?"

Yinzhen was not surprised that his father would know about his actions, but he was quite surprised that his father would come to him about it.

After all, in Yinzhen's view, it was not a big deal for him to have people collect Buddhist scriptures.

Yinzhen nodded, looking puzzled, and said, "Father, I do have some interest in Buddhist scriptures."

Kangxi added, "You can read any books you like, but you can read Buddhist scriptures, but you must not become too engrossed in them. Do you understand what I mean?"

Yinzhen suddenly realized that his father was actually afraid that he would become a monk!

Yinzhen assured him, "I understand, Father. Don't worry, I just want to take a look. I have no intention of getting involved."

He had no intention of becoming a monk. Although it was all just a dream, he still felt that this world was not worth staying in.

"It's good that you don't have that plan. Although Buddhist scriptures can resolve doubts, they should be read in moderation and not all the time."

“My son understands.”

Emperor Kangxi then sent people to observe Yinzhen's behavior and conduct, and only after confirming that he had not seen through the ways of the world did he feel at ease.

Although Yinzhen didn't become a completely different person after falling into a coma, he did change somewhat. The Ninth Prince and the Tenth Prince felt this most deeply. At first, they thought he was in a good mood and could be gentle and kind to the two of them when they were playing around.

Later they realized that things had indeed changed. Although they didn't know why, at least they didn't have to listen to Fourth Brother's lectures anymore, which was a good thing for them. Who cares why!

Another person who felt this deeply was the Crown Prince, since Yinzhen was usually closer to the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince noticed that Yinzhen's behavior had become more appropriate, but he also found that Yinzhen had become somewhat unpredictable. Although he was still as respectful to him as ever, the Crown Prince had an inexplicable feeling that something was off.

Yinzhen's change did not cause much of a stir.

Yinzhen gradually got used to his current life and no longer worried about the Yonghe Palace.

...

Meanwhile, in the Ulanara manor, Fei Yanggu's eldest daughter, Ulanara Shi Shuyuan, was playing with her younger sister in the courtyard when she accidentally fell into the water. When the manor physician arrived, he saw that there was no hope of saving her and was about to announce the preparations for the funeral when the woman, who was lying on the bed about to breathe her last, suddenly started coughing.

After a period of chaos, Princess Ulanara was temporarily brought back from the brink of death. However, because she had fallen into the water, she burned intermittently for three days before finally recovering completely.

Quite coincidentally, the three days that Princess Shuyuan was in a coma were the same three days that Yinzhen was in a coma. However, because Yinzhen's coma was quite strange, Kangxi ordered the news to be kept quiet, and no one connected the two events.

Furthermore, even if Kangxi hadn't kept the news under wraps, probably no one would have connected the two events; even the most observant person would have just thought it was a coincidence.

When Chen Shuyuan woke up, she found herself in an antique-style room. The room was very elegantly furnished, clearly a woman's boudoir. She was conscious but not quite lucid. Her maid fed her bitter medicine every day for several days before she finally regained full consciousness.

Then she realized she had transmigrated, and immediately the original owner's memories appeared in her mind.

She then realized her current predicament.

The original owner of the body, Ulanara Shuyuan, was Feiyanggu's eldest legitimate daughter. She was already twelve years old and would be able to participate in the imperial concubine selection next year. The reason she fell into the water was because she was playing in the garden with her twin sister when her sister "accidentally" pushed her into the water. Unfortunately, she was rescued too late, and she transmigrated to this world not long after being rescued.

Shuyuan recalled the scene of falling into the water in her memory, and then thought of the subtle envy her original sister had shown her.

Although the two sisters were born on the same day, they looked different. She inherited her mother's appearance, with an oval face, peach blossom eyes, and willow-leaf eyebrows, looking delicate and charming.

However, her younger sister, Shuwan, resembled her father, Feiyanggu.

From a modern perspective, Shuwan isn't ugly, but she has a rather heroic look and a large frame, which makes her less attractive compared to the petite and lovely Shuyuan.

Normally, Shuwan didn't show it obviously. As her mother, Jueluo always taught the two sisters to get along well. Shuyuan was very obedient and always thought that the two sisters got along well and there was never any filth between them.

Chen Shuyuan was certain that there was something fishy about falling into the water that day, but she had no evidence. After all, Shuwan was usually a kind and loving younger sister.
