Mingxiu was devastated, really devastated. Just yesterday, she was a typical 21st-century office worker, healthy and without any major health issues. Her biggest daily worry was dreaming of winning the lottery, but she was just a lazy bum who wanted to quit her job every day but ended up working every month with perfect attendance.
Then, a loud bang was heard in the sky, and the system made a dazzling appearance, telling her without saying a word that it would take her through time and space, and that it was mandatory.
She couldn't even protest, because it was a karmic debt she owed a little girl in her past life, and she had to repay it in this life. The little girl came to her, and she went to live in the little girl's place for a lifetime and take good care of the little girl's family.
He kept babbling on and on, and she got confused.
Then they gave her an hour to choose what to bring, and then forcibly teleported her there.
Completely bewildered, Mingxiu didn't react until she heard that there was only one hour left. She hurriedly went downstairs to buy some things to take with her. By the time she realized what was happening, she had already bought a whole cart of things and put them in her spatial storage.
When he finally snapped out of it and realized something was wrong, he was about to question the system when it stunned him with a single sentence. He then started riding the bike all over the city, the bike was practically sparking, and he barely managed to get a few shops.
Then everything went black and I lost consciousness.
When he opened his eyes again, he had become a palace maid, specifically a maid surnamed Hesheli. When Mingxiu saw Empress Hesheli Fangyi from his memories, he realized that he was in Emperor Kangxi's harem.
Ugh, I'm going crazy! It's dark, twisted, and I'm crawling around like a madwoman. I want to go home. What terrible things did Mingxiu do in her past life that she's starting this life with a hellish script?
Is the imperial harem easy to navigate, especially Kangxi's? The Empress, Niohuru, Consort Yi, and even her fourth uncle's birth mother, Consort De, and adoptive mother, Imperial Noble Consort Tong—none of them are easy to mess with. With her brains—she's always last in her class at school and a nobody at work—what's the point of having her here? Can she even compete with them?
After frantically calling out to the system in her mind to no avail, Mingxiu could only helplessly open her eyes, look at the little palace maids sleeping around her, and sigh silently.
'Okay, at least there's still some space, it's not like there's nothing at all. As long as I have a little bit, it should be fine... right?' Mingxiu thought with a sense of resignation.
Thinking of this, Mingxiu quickly got out of bed, looked at the sleeping palace maid next to her, carefully got out of bed, opened the door and went out. After walking to the outhouse and looking around to make sure no one was there, she slipped into the space.
Upon entering the space, she quickly grabbed a large flower, took a deep breath, and exclaimed, "Oh my god, I'm finally alive! Good heavens, the toilet smelled awful!" Mingxiu patted her chest, her round face scrunched up as she complained.
She looked around at her space and thought, "Thank goodness! Although time is tight, the system doesn't have any size restrictions." Although her mind was a bit fuzzy, her body wasn't, and she bought a lot of things.
Fortunately, the dog system still had some sense of responsibility, allowing her to simply copy what she wanted by feeling the wall and put it into her space. "Very good, very good. Although it's not complete, at least I won't have to worry about food and drink. As long as I don't do anything reckless, I should be able to survive until I leave the palace." Looking at the supermarkets in front of her, Mingxiu was quite satisfied. Although she hadn't put in many things because of the late reminder, it should be enough. She had basically copied everything she could use and see.
He looked at the supermarket and pharmacy in front of him with satisfaction.
Seeing that the things he cared about most had come along, Mingxiu felt relieved and finally had the mood to observe the environment of the space. It wasn't big; apart from the supermarket and other facilities, it was about three or four acres, empty but well-divided. It should be convenient to grow some things there. There was also a river nearby.
Seeing Ha Myung-soo, he was so excited, thinking, "Could this be the legendary spiritual spring?" He couldn't control himself and ran towards the river.
She squatted down and looked at the clear river water, so clear that she could see the bottom, but she couldn't see anything else. "It should be drinkable, right?" Mingxiu thought, bent down, scooped up a handful of water, and drank some.
Smacking her lips, Mingxiu thought, "I don't feel anything, is that right?" After drinking the water, she quickly touched her entire body and felt no change.
Is it because the time is too short and I need to drink it more often, or is that not the case?
There was no time to dwell on it. Not noticing any changes, Mingxiu stopped worrying about it. After confirming that everything she brought was there, she hurried out, afraid that if she lingered too long, she would be discovered.
After sensing that no one was outside, Mingxiu quickly returned to the house. Seeing that it was still the same as before she left, Mingxiu breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the quilt and lay down, looking up at the ceiling, slowly calming her pounding heart.
While recalling the memories of this body, she realized that this body was named Hesheli Mingxiu, that's right, the Hesheli of Empress Hesheli, the Hesheli of Suo'etu. Good heavens, just thinking about this surname made Mingxiu feel scared, but there was also a little excitement mixed in with the fear. 'Oh my god, does she have a chance to meet the little prince?' She was a big fan of the prince.
Her branch was merely a side branch, and a very distant one at that, and it had long since declined.
The mother of this body died when she was 10 years old, leaving her and her five-year-old brother. Her father, Hesheli Niman, was a fifth-rank official. After her mother's death, he married a second wife from the Yehenara clan. She was only married because of her surname. Her character was not good. Although she did not mistreat them before, life was not easy.
However, when Yehenara gave birth to another son, she paid less and less attention to her and her brother, and often made things difficult for them. The young girl entered the palace partly out of necessity, since she was required to participate in the imperial concubine selection, and even if she did not enter the palace, her fate in that family would not be good. Part of it was also for her brother, so that Yehenara would at least have some reservations and not dare to harm her brother, since her brother still had the status of the legitimate son.
She's twelve now and just entered the palace this year. Because of her name and surname, she was assigned to Kunning Palace, where the Empress resides. However, due to her unlikable personality, she was given the job of a cleaning maid, and no one bullies her. The reason she wants to switch places with her is because she feels she can't get along with people, and she's also scared. She probably just listened to the system's persuasion and went through with it.
Thinking of this, Mingxiu couldn't help but grit her teeth. Damn it, in the end the system never told her what she had done in her past life that made her feel sorry for that young girl.
'Damn it, did she get tricked?' Mingxiu slapped her forehead. It's all because her brain is so slow; she believes everything people say. Mingxiu thought to herself as she slapped her head again. 'Don't let me run into this again, or I'll tear it apart!' Mingxiu thought fiercely.
Somewhere in time and space, 502 felt a chill down her spine. She rubbed the halo around her body, thinking, "I hope I haven't been discovered yet. It's okay, don't scare yourself. I finally met someone this stupid, I can't let her go. Anyway, there's nothing she can do even if she finds out. Besides, it has already compensated her with a lot." Thinking this, 502 happily prepared to go find the main system to play chess.
Looking at the faintly brightening sky, Mingxiu wondered uncertainly what time it was. Si Shi, Hai Shi, Chen Shi? Oh well, she didn't understand. Even if she had the memories of this body, she wouldn't bother to look. She'd just wait until everyone else got up before she woke up too.
