Chapter 1 Perverted Hands
Forehead, cheeks, neck, shoulders, chest, chest, chest...
"Chest?" Unfamiliar memories were loading, and Mu Xi wanted to move but couldn't.
However, this didn't stop her from immediately realizing that she had transmigrated into the body of a man... no... or rather, a woman.
The memory was loaded at a certain point and then abruptly stopped.
Mu Xi's patience had reached its limit.
XXX, who's taking advantage of me?
As she opened her eyes, she grabbed at the groping hand.
"Ah...a zombie...a zombie has risen..." In the dim light, a woman screamed, fainted from fright, and fell out of sight.
Mu Xi's hand, which had been grabbing the groping hand, missed its mark, and she sat up abruptly, looking around.
Haha, I was just lying in a dark coffin.
Then stretch your neck to find the groping hand that fell under the coffin.
A maidservant.
Although she was a maid, her clothes and attire were not simple.
"Lingmei?" Mu Xi easily recognized whose maid she was.
Instinctively alert, it immediately got up and jumped out of the coffin.
He first checked the maid's breath with his finger: "Alas, it's a pity she didn't die of fright. This is not a good situation."
Having just arrived, Mu Xi decided to first walk around to the front of the coffin to confirm her new identity.
On the offering table in front of the coffin stood a black tablet with gold characters, which read: "Prince Mu Xi of Jin Fang".
A woman who should have been a princess of the duke's mansion was raised as a boy from birth, just to secure her scumbag father's title.
For less than twenty years, in order to hide his gender, he lived a secluded life, always on edge, and dared not show his true face to others.
Yesterday, she was made to drink a "fake death potion," supposedly to "change her identity and return to her female form." In reality, it was just to give up the position of heir to her half-brother, who had already grown powerful.
This move was so...stupid, there were too many bugs!
So, as expected, an accident occurred.
The "fake death drug" somehow turned into a "real death drug," and the original owner died mysteriously and silently, while she happened to transmigrate into this world.
Mu Xi has successfully integrated the original owner's memories from birth to death, but these memories seem to be just the tip of the iceberg. What else is hidden beneath the iceberg?
Standing in front of your own memorial tablet, try looking down twice, but you still can't quite make out what's there.
Very well, the original owner's superficial memories are enough.
The reason is that the original character's personality was practically a carbon copy of Mu Xi's personality from her previous life, only worse.
In her previous life, Mu Xi was born into a wealthy family and was the only daughter of a rich family that everyone envied. However, her scumbag father favored sons over daughters. Although he possessed millions in wealth, he always felt that something was missing because he didn't have a son to inherit it.
Although Mu Xi could have lived the life of a rich second-generation heir, she was sensitive and strong-willed from a young age, and always worked hard and diligently. After growing up, she devoted herself to her family company and worked conscientiously, just to prove that she was no less capable than boys.
However, no matter how hard you try, it can't compare to the innate advantages of being born with your gender.
The scumbag father had been secretly keeping a mistress and had a son with her.
By the time Mu Xi and her daughter discovered this, the scumbag father had already transferred most of the family fortune to his illegitimate son.
Mu Xi worked hard for many years to manage the company, making the family business thrive, but in the end, she gained a "cheap younger brother" who could win without lifting a finger?
In a fit of anger, the mother insisted on divorce, and Mu Xi supported her, hoping to reclaim the assets that had been transferred to his mistress and illegitimate child.
Unexpectedly, she got into a car accident halfway through her mother's divorce and property dispute, and was transported to this unfamiliar ancient time and space.
The regrets and resentment from his last life were still lingering in his heart, and he never expected that his transmigration in this life would result in such a troublesome identity.
A woman's identity as a man can be revealed, but it cannot be revealed by others, otherwise it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
She can give up the position of heir apparent, but she must reclaim the position of princess that rightfully belongs to her; otherwise, she will be labeled a "brother-supporting demon" and a "sucker."
So right now, the most important thing is to deal with the "groping" incident.
Thinking of this, Mu Xi turned back to the coffin, staring at the unconscious maid on the ground, and began to worry.
Lingmei was a confidante and personal maid of the original owner's stepmother, Gao.
The fact that a maid dared to touch the young master's body late at night must mean that Madam Gao had already suspected the original owner's identity as a woman disguised as a man, which is why she sent her.
It couldn't be clear what Gao was planning.
If the investigation reveals that the original owner was a man, then so be it, since the person is already dead and it won't pose an obstacle to Gao's own son.
However, if it can be proven that the original owner was a woman, then even if she is dead, it will still be a handle against her.
The Gao family could be used to threaten internal forces and help their son rise to power.
Therefore, from any perspective, the fact that a woman is dressed as a man must never be exposed.
Although the original owner had a slender and delicate figure, and her clothes and accessories were all in accordance with the standards of the heir of the Jun family, it was impossible to tell from her appearance that she was male or female. However, she would definitely be exposed if touched.
Therefore, Ling Mei cannot be allowed to stay.
But what can we do if we can't keep them?
Mu Xi turned around and looked outside the mourning hall.
It's strange, really.
Although the original owner's disguise as a man and faked death were both meant to conceal her identity, and her funeral should be kept simple, how come there wasn't even a single person keeping vigil at the funeral hall of the legitimate heir of the Jin Fangjun Mansion?
Right now, even if you wanted to find someone close to the original owner to discuss countermeasures, it's impossible.
Just as I was at a loss, a rough male voice suddenly boomed in my mind: "Let me out, I'll kill her."
Mu Xi was startled: "Who are you?"
“I am you,” the voice replied.
The voice clearly belonged to a man, so how could it be himself?
Mu Xi couldn't believe it, but then she remembered the "standard features of time travel" and couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised: "You're a system?"
The voice was impatient: "What system? I am you. Let me out and I can deal with this servant."
Mu Xi wondered if she was hallucinating: "If you're not the system, then who are you?"
"I've already said it, I am you." The man's voice became even more agitated.
The sound was so clear that it couldn't possibly be a hallucination.
Mu Xi began to suspect again that the original owner of the body might have a split personality. No wonder the memories she had just received felt like something was missing.
Before she could figure it out, Lingmei, who was lying on the ground, suddenly woke up with a soft "yelp".
Mu Xi's heart skipped a beat.
I haven't figured out how to deal with this yet, what should I do?
When Ling Mei opened her eyes and saw Mu Xi above her, she was immediately frightened and instinctively shrank back.
"Ghost...ghost..." In the midst of panic, she caught a glimpse of Mu Xi's shadow cast on the ground.
As everyone knows, ghosts don't have shadows.
Ling Mei calmed down considerably: "The...the young master isn't...dead?"
Mu Xi did not answer, but was anxiously thinking of a solution.
From the original owner's memories, we know that Ling Mei was usually bold and meticulous. She had always been cunning and had been spying on the original owner's son's eastern courtyard. She was not easy to deal with.
Tonight they've even come to our doorstep; this is intolerable!
Ling Mei, her soul still reeling from the fright, slowly rose to her feet and cautiously probed, "The young master isn't dead? That's wonderful! It was probably a misjudgment by those physicians. Was I right?"
"Whether it's a misjudgment or not doesn't matter. I'm asking you..." Seeing Ling Mei's eyes darting around, looking like she had ulterior motives, Mu Xi felt nothing but disgust. "What are you rummaging through my coffin for so late at night?"
