Back to Kangxi's Youth (Qing Time Travel)

[Ongoing: "A Palace Maid's Ascent (Qing Time Travel)"]

Chen Guanxue was once transmigrated as a concubine in her previous life, ascending to the rank of Imperial Noble Consort through Emperor Kangxi's favor. Suddenly, she travels from the 57th year of Kangxi's reign back to the 35th year, shivering in an unnamed alley.

Returning twenty years earlier, she becomes a Han woman inexplicably pregnant and secretly driven from her home by her parents to save her life. She couldn't possibly enter the palace to tell the Kangxi of the 35th year that the child in her belly is his, based on a dream from the 57th year.

While recuperating at Yuyin Hall, she's falsely accused of theft. After a soft smile, she speaks a sentence that makes the Shuntian Prefect kowtow three times.

On the night of September 2nd in the 35th year of Kangxi's reign, the Fourth Prince Yinzhen enters the palace for an audience, and from then on, an unmentionable presence resides in the Eastern Warmth Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace.

An ageless, slightly yandere emperor.

The most beautiful, aloof female lead in the male lead's eyes.

[Content Warnings]

1: Significant age gap between leads (already warned - those who complain after entering deserve...)

Synopsis:

[Qing Dynasty quick transmigration story with Kangxi as male lead - World One Synopsis]

Li Jiayin, sixteen years old, is a tearfully beautiful, curvaceous maidservant in the Qianqing Palace tea room. On her first day entering the palace, she receives imperial praise and rewards, promising a bright future.

Her clan advises that the Emperor's temper is unpredictable and the palace isn't a good place - she should leave when she comes of age. Remembering the bloody state of a beaten little eunuch, Li Jiayin wholeheartedly agrees.

But Heaven has other plans - a system latches onto her, demanding she complete tasks or be killed. To survive, Li Jiayin sneaks around the Qianqing Palace like a thief.

[Collect Kangxi's Beloved Items]

After breaking the Emperor's favorite cup, she apologizes profusely in public while secretly hiding ceramic shards in her pouch - dividing one piece into two if insufficient.

[Obtain Kangxi's Personal Garments]

Marveling at the system's intelligence, she then rummages through the Emperor's sleepwear, finally finding a loose thread to snip and store.

[Skin Contact with Kangxi]

Certain the system wants her dead, she rolls her eyes and touches the Emperor's hand during night watch, casually plucking a hair for her pouch.

As tasks continue, she becomes the Emperor's personal maid, her family's pillar, and familiar with imperial consorts.

When long task-free, she assumes the system vanished - until a lethal one appears:

[Consummate Marriage with Kangxi]

Thinking she wouldn't dare? She truly doesn't! Immediately composing herself, she tearfully writes a suicide note.

Yet the Qianqing Palace bed shakes half the night, and she becomes an official concubine. Shocked, terrified, confused, she trembles.

During her consort ennoblement, the Emperor says: "To collect my beloved items, you break cups. To obtain my garments, you pull threads. For skin contact, just a midnight hand touch?"

Doomed! Her life is forfeit! This system is unreliable!!!
