She quickly pulled the blanket up, jumped to the corner of the bed, and assumed a defensive stance, glaring warily at the person in front of her. The man in front of the bed did not move, but just looked at her strangely.
"Who are you? What are you doing in my room? Get out!"
Yinzhen's face darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "You want me to get out?"
The imperial physicians and servants in the room were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, their heads buried in the earth, fearing that their master would be angry with them.
Yinzhen glared darkly at the audacious Tong Shi on the bed.
Nan Yi felt a chill run down her spine, alarm bells rang in her mind, and she realized something was wrong. She raised her hand to her forehead, slowly lay down on the quilt, and pretended to be asleep.
Two days later, Nan Yi leaned against the bedside, looking at the little maid in front of him dressed in Qing Dynasty clothing, and was speechless.
She felt something was off when she woke up last time. If no one was joking, then she must have been transported to the Qing Dynasty. Don't ask her how she knew about the Qing Dynasty; everyone on Earth knows that.
He was stabbed in the back, which sent him back to the Qing Dynasty three hundred years ago.
Fate was against her. Why couldn't she stay home and take care of her parents? She couldn't resist the temptation of money and instead went overseas to work for a company, taking on a three-year bodyguard job abroad.
As a result, the mission failed, and when I woke up, I found myself here.
The young maid in green, named Qingyun, held a steaming pot of medicine in her hands and stubbornly held it out to her, acting very dutifully, as if she wouldn't give up until she drank it.
Nan sighed, took the drink, and downed it in one gulp, but then, in a bit of a rush, "...cough...cough cough."
It was so bitter, it made her bile come out. Qingyun quickly handed Nan Yi a glass of warm water to rinse her mouth and gave her a sweet plum to get rid of the bitterness. She put it in her mouth and chewed it a little before she felt better.
"Qingyun, where is this?"
"Master, this is the Fourth Master's villa on the outskirts of the capital."
"Pfft—" Fourth Master, cough...
The name "Fourth Master" sounded so familiar... Could it be...? She felt as if she'd been struck by lightning.
When Nan Yi had learned enough about Qingyun, he felt a sense of relief; the villa was wonderful.
Her identity here is that of a Manchu princess of high status. Her original name was Tong Yilan. A year ago, she married the fourth prince as a secondary consort. Her family was a branch of the Tong clan. She was favored in the fourth prince's harem. Because she was jealous of Li's pregnancy, she was provoked and Li almost miscarried. She was sent to another residence by the consort Nara, ostensibly so that she could recuperate properly in her place.
Even if Nan Yi thought she was naive, she would have noticed the problem. The concubine was skilled at playing the power struggle in the household, killing two birds with one stone. She dealt a blow to Li Shi's arrogance caused by her pregnancy, and also drove the favored concubine out of the mansion. Tsk tsk, women who compete for favor are not to be underestimated.
