Chapter 2 First Arrival



Three days passed in the blink of an eye. After getting ready, Wanwan boarded the teleportation machine in the main city of the system. A familiar feeling of weightlessness came over her, and Wanwan opened her eyes again. As she expected, she had been moved to a new place.

Wow, a new map has been released!

She ungracefully rolled over and sat up on the wooden bed. Wanwan first looked at the plain-colored nightgown she was wearing, then glanced at the antique-style room and the various ornaments around her. She immediately called out to the system in her mind, "Where is this? It seems different from the mission description?"

Before she transmigrated here, she had specifically read the short text following the mission description. It clearly mentioned life in the imperial harem, but what she saw in front of her was obviously the boudoir of a young lady.

Oh, this young lady has skinny arms and legs, and looks quite young.

Wanwan couldn't help but complain in her heart. The mechanical voice of the system in her mind arrived as expected, "Host, when the system traveled through time, there was a spatial turbulence, which caused the time void to make a mistake, resulting in you entering this world five years ahead of schedule."

The original owner replaced by the host was named Xitala Xiuning, who came from the Plain White Banner. Her father, Xitala Debao, was a fourth-rank official in the Court of State Ceremonies, and her mother was from the Fuca clan, a collateral branch of the Fuca family.

The original owner was the eldest daughter in her family, with two younger brothers and a younger sister.

It is now the sixteenth year of the Shunzhi reign, and the host has just turned six years old. Barring unforeseen circumstances, the host will enter the palace in the seventh year of the Kangxi reign to participate in the imperial concubine selection.

Wanwan:......

"In other words, I am currently Xitala Xiuning. What wishes did the original owner have to fulfill?"

Wanwan scratched her head. She had traveled through many mission worlds before, including ancient, modern, cultivation, and post-apocalyptic worlds, but she had never traveled through the Qing Dynasty. However, she had read a lot of relevant information in different worlds. It seemed that there was not a single concubine from the Hitara clan in Kangxi's harem.

Well, it's also possible that this Lady Hitara wasn't favored. After all, given Kangxi's prolific procreation and the nearly three-digit number of concubines in his harem, it would be quite normal for him to bury an unfavored concubine.

As Wanwan finished speaking, the system's voice changed and began to talk about the original owner's wish: "The original owner's wish was to participate in the election smoothly and avoid being sent home by accident."

In the original owner's previous life, she was too careless and caught in the infighting among the imperial concubines, forcing her to be rejected early and return home. This resulted in her missing out on a good marriage and ultimately dying in sorrow.

Wanwan, who has changed her name to Xiuning: ...

"So, her wish this time is to be selected to enter the palace and serve the emperor?" To scheme against a bunch of women, vying for favor, having children, and fighting for men?

Wow, that's really ambitious (full of sarcasm).

"Yes, the original owner's marriage in the previous life was not happy. The original owner thought that rather than being resentful, it would be better to go to the harem and fight for it, at least..." Before the system could finish speaking, Xiu Ning, who couldn't hold back her words, retorted.

"At least if she succeeds, she can become the most honored woman in the harem, just like the powerful Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang."

Xiuning was almost amused by the original owner's naivety. This was simply mindless. "She can't even understand a normal domestic power struggle, yet she dares to challenge the more sophisticated palace intrigue. Does she really think that all the beauties in the harem are just pretty vases?"

Don't be ridiculous. Those beautiful snake women in the harem love to eat people. Given the original owner's personality, she's not even good at domestic power struggles, let alone palace intrigues; she'd just be offering herself up as food.

"So the original owner spent a lot of points to request the quick transmigrator to intervene in this world to fulfill her dream," the system said calmly.

Xiuning, who was successfully choked: ...

"Am I the unlucky one who was chosen?" Xiu Ning raised an eyebrow, feeling that life was truly unpredictable and full of twists and turns.

"Double or even triple the points crystals, if this job goes well, we can double it again," the system revealed the hidden reward of this mission. "Host, this is the most generous mission in terms of reward among all the missions that this system can currently search for."

In short, if you miss this opportunity, you'll have no choice but to obediently become a laborer in another world.

"Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen this mission," she thought, as if her 5.0 vision was just for show, all for the sake of grabbing the best mission.

"Quickly, I'll give you three days to figure out the operating rules of the entire world. Know yourself and your enemy, and I need to prepare in advance." Xiu Ning perfectly inherited the greed of a transmigrator, wanting both the harem and the empress's position. She was a master of this game.

The system did not reply to Xiuning again, indicating that it had already gone to do something else.

With the system busy, Xiu Ning couldn't be idle either. She wasn't some lazy bum who wanted to retire and farm. As for the second-generation rich kid she was currently raising in Little Broken Planet, Xiu Ning first rubbed her face, then quickly got out of bed and examined the original owner's appearance in the bronze mirror on the dressing table.

Tsk tsk, just average, barely passable.

With her excellent eyesight and some purchased abilities, Xiu Ning has successfully simulated the upper limit of this body without any modifications.

"Tsk, this won't do. It seems that the original owner was really just having a run of bad luck in the previous life."

Because the original owner's physical appearance made it completely unnecessary for anyone to scheme against him.

In short, they are cannon fodder who would be barely noticeable if thrown into a crowd.

With such talent, she still had the audacity to enter the palace to compete for favor and become the Empress Dowager. It's only because they were quick transmigrators with all sorts of magical medicines that they were allowed in; otherwise, no one else could have managed it.

With a sigh, Xiu Ning, feeling that thinking about it was pointless, tapped her head, and a beautiful eight-inch projection screen, visible only to her, appeared in front of her.
