Yun Mengqing had a splitting headache. She slowly opened her eyes and found herself in an ancient and elegant room.
Is this a film set?
No.
She just attended the Magnolia Awards ceremony yesterday. With her beauty, family background and good acting skills, she successfully won this year’s Best Actress award. She is very satisfied with her success
After winning the award, Yun Mengqing drove her newly bought sports car alone to the Best Actress celebration party that her best friend had prepared for her.
However, when passing through a viaduct, she encountered a car accident and fell under the bridge with her car.
But she’s still alive now? But why isn’t she in the hospital? Where is she?
「Ding ding ding, my dear host, this is the Imperial Palace of Qi State. You are now one of the Emperor’s newly selected concubines for this year. 」
Yun Mengqing was shocked. There was obviously no one around: 「Who are you!」
「Dear host, I am System 001.
In your mind, you died in a car accident in the modern world, and I happened to bind you with me and brought you to Qi state.
Your current Identity is the concubine of the Emperor of Qi State, also known as Yu Mengqing 」
She actually has the same name as her?
Although Yun Mengqing is a firm materliest, she can only force herself to accept such a bizarre thing happening now.
「Why bind me? 」 Yun Mengqing doesn’t believe there is a free lunch in the world. This guy who claims to be a system must have a purpose in saving her.
「Dear host, 001 will introduce you to the current situation first.」
Yun Mengqing nodded.
「This is the state of Qi. His Majesty Qi You, titled Emperor Shengwu, has been in power for ten years. Your current identity is his concubine selected this year, Yun Chang Zai.」
「Ten years on the throne? Then how many selection rounds has he held this year?」 Yun Mengqing asked doubtfully.
「This year is the third selection. In the first year of Shengwu’s reign, after mourning for the former emperor for a year, Emperor Shengwu conducted the first selection under the advice of his courtiers, and ten people were selected;
In the fourth year in Shengwu’s reign, the second selection was held and twenty people were selected;
This year, the tenth year of Shengwu’s reign, the third selection was held and eight people were selected. 」
Yun Mengqing’s face was full of black lines. He had already chosen so many wives, why did he need her to come too?
Then she asked:「 From the fourth year to the tenth year of Shengwu’s reign, there was no selection for six years in between?」
「Although there has been no selection in the past six years, there have been beauties presented by other small countries and courtiers from various places.」
This emperor is really lucky in women.
001 saw the disgust in her eyes.
Then he hurriedly added;「 Every world has people with strong luck. These people can also be called the protagonists. The protagonist of this world is Emperor Shengwu! And the purpose of you coming here is to conquer him and gain 100% of his love.」
Can she say no?
「No, you can’t~ Dear host, if you refuse, you will die immediately~」
Not wanting to continue chatting with him, 「Since I need to win over Emperor Shengwu, tell me about him.」
「Okay, Dear Host, Emperor Shengwu ascended the throne at the age of twenty. In the first three years after ascending the throne, he gathered the imperial power because of his hard work and wise decisions.
After that, he personally led his troops to conquer Beirong, strategised and won thousands of miles, so that Beirong could pay tribute every year.
His literary talent can be like wielding the palm of his hand to stabilise the country; His martial arts can win thousands of miles, and be powerful all over the world.
Under the rules of His Majesty the Emperor, the Qi State has enjoyed goodweather, peace and prosperity and strong national strength~ 」
The corners of Yun Mengqing’s mouth twitched slightly. Isn’t 001 really a fan of His Majesty the Emperor?
「Why does such a gifted man need me to capture him? 」
「That is…although Emperor Shengwu is blessed with good fortune and is a child of destiny, due to some external reasons, he is destined to suffer a calamity. I hope the host can help Emperor Shengwu overcome this calamity, otherwise the people of Qi State will be in danger, and even the world will collapse. 」
「What kind of disaster requires kidnapping people from another world for rescue?. 」Yun Mengqing was surprised by 001’s words.
「Host, I want to correct your wording. The binding of 001 also saved your life~」
Yun Mengqing asked again: 「Then why did you choose me?」
「Of course, this system has found you as the host after the most precise calculations. It is one of the most advanced systems.
「By what calculation? 」She was really curious.
「Beauty, talent, character, and most importantly, mentality. The overall score of the host is the highest among the thousands of people I found, 99 points~」
「So what is the point deducted from this lady? 」She has always pursued perfection.
「Dear host, the calculation model of 001 does not have a score of 100~」
Yun Mengqing curled her lips and said, 「Okay, I understand, what benefits will I get after completing the task?」
「After completing the mission, 001 will grant you one wish, anything~」
「Would you like me to die?」
001 suddenly jammed huh? What is its dear host saying? Why can’t it suddenly understand human speech?
「Master host, I am still a baby~」
The corner of Yun Mengqing’s mouth twitched, not wanting to continue the boring conversation with the mentally retarded system, 「 Can you resurrect me in the original world?」
Yun Mengqing was a doting young lady in modern times. After she grew up, she worked in the entertainment industry without experiencing many ups and downs. She also had parents and brothers who loved her. How could she be willing to stay in this strange ancient time? Fighting for a man with so many women.
「Certainly!」
「Deal!」
After Yun Mengqing woke up, she saw an unfamiliar place. She made no movement and no one came into the room.
After communicating with 001 in her mind, she began to close her eyes and rest, receiving the memory of the original owner. She didn’t want to be mistaken for a ghost possessing someone and be captured and thrown into a pond.
What’s damning is that after this 001 explained everything, he actually left, saying that he would only appear again after she completed her mission.
Just like a game guide NPC, he leaves after explaining everything, so she can only rely on herself to complete this task.
The original host is 14 this year, which is the youngest age for the selection. She was selected this year and awarded the title of First Class Attendant (常在; chángzài), which is not low. Among the eight selected concubines, one is Lady of Beauty (美人; měirén), two are First Class Attendants, one is Lady of Talent (才人; cáirén), 3 are Lady of Treasure (寶林; bǎolín) and 1 Lady of His Majesty (御女; yùnǚ)
T/N: 寶林 is in traditional Chinese which I found on wikipedia and 宝林 is simplified in the raws.
The original owner is one of the two Changzai, and this is all thanks to her father who is a third-rank official.
Two months after entering the palace, after the last concubine had spent the night with Emperor Shengwu, he never visited the new lady. Everyone in the palace felt that it was impossible for Emperor Shengwu to still remember her and that she was bound to fall out of favour.
The reason why Emperor Shengwu did not summon her to sleep with him was simply because she was young.
Emperor Shengwu, who was already thirty years old, was not interested in the original owner who was not yet fully developed. In addition, Emperor Shengwu himself preferred plump women.
An Guiren*, who had the highest rank in this selection, had been jealous of the original owner’s beauty since the selection began. She pushed the original owner into the lake, where she died, until she came here now.
*An Guiren can also known as Noble Lady An ( Noble Lady 貴人; guìrén)
An Guiren is the daughter of a second-rank general of the Imperial Army. She is the first selected concubine this year to serve the emperor in his bedchamber. No wonder she dares to bully the original owner so unscrupulously.
Although the original owner’s father was a third-rank official, he was a civil servant with little real power.
Sure enough, a strong family background is the capital of arrogance.
Now that she has come to this world and taken over this body, some revenge must be taken, and the emperor’s favour must also be fought for.
Whether it’s because of 001’s mission or because the emperor’s favour is the most powerful backing in the world.
001 did choose a good body for her. She is the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites. Her parents are loving and there are only her and her brother at home. Her brother is 18 years old this year and works in the Imperial College. In other words, there are no concubines or half-sisters in the family.
Therefore, the original owner developed a simple temperament, and was killed after two months in the palace.
Yun Mengqing was lying on the bed, concentrating and thinking.
It was almost dinner time, so I sat up from the bed, frowned, and stroked my forehead. My body was still too weak.
From the memory of the original owner, we learned that because she was not favoured by the emperor, she now only has one maid, Qing Yuan, who came from her family and grew up with her.
She called out “Qing Yuan” with a slightly hoarse voice. The original owner fell into the water and had a fever for three days.
“Miss! You’re awake!” Qing Yuan heard the voice and hurriedly came in from the outside.
“Miss, I thought I would never see you again. Since you fell into a fever and passed out, I went to the Imperial Hospital to ask for a doctor for you, but no one came. Miss Wuwuwuwu, you finally woke up.”
Qing Yuan cried so pitifully, Yun Mengqing gently wiped away the tears on her face, knowing that this girl treated the original owner sincerely.
“Don’t cry, I’m awake, right?”
“Miss, are you still feeling uncomfortable?”
Yun Mengqing held her forehead and said, “My head hurts a little, but it’s okay. I’m a little hungry. Is there anything to eat?”
“This servant will bring you the hot porridge.”
Qing Yuan hurried out and walked in quickly with porridge.
“Miss, drink it quickly. It’s warm. You haven’t eaten much in the past few days because you’ve been sick. “
Yun Mengqing picked up the bowl and drank a few spoonfuls. Qing Yuan was the only person she could trust in the palace at the moment, and she needed her to stand by her side without any doubt.
“Qing Yuan, I have understood a lot after getting sick this time. I used to be protected by my parents and brother at home, but now in this palace, no one can protect me. Instead, everyone wants to harm me.
I will not remain content without fighting for it. Before meeting His Majesty, we should act as if we are invisible in the harem and tell others that I am seriously ill. I need to take medicine every day to maintain my health. “
Qing Yuan stared at her young lady blankly. After entering the palace, the young lady did not win His Majesty’s favour. She also called her young lady instead of master as before.
The young lady was pure, kind, delicate and frail in her boudoir, and was the most favoured girl in the family.
After entering the palace, she thought about protecting the young lady, but she was useless and the young lady was harmed by others.
But the current lady’s pale little face was still so beautiful, but she smiled softly, and her eyes had a different light than before. She was still as pure, but her eyes were firm and calm, which even made her feel at ease.
Yun Mengqing does not act as weak-tempered as the original owner. She will make Qing Yuan gradually accept her as an independent and even strong character.
It is normal to have some changes after life and death. If the changes are not huge, others will not think of it as weird or supernatural. In addition, Qing Yuan is not only loyal to the original owner, but also has had love for her since childhood.
Qing Yuan answered seriously, “Miss, don’t worry, you should take good care of yourself from now on. Our place is remote, and many palace maids have left. Your daily meals are bought with money. From now on, I will be more low-key and don’t let anyone think of harming you.”
“Okay, Qing Yuan is very powerful. I feel at ease having you with me in the palace.”
Qing Yuan called out “Miss” with emotion. When the Miss picked her up as a child, she swore to protect her for the rest of her life. However, after entering the palace, she was too weak and the young lady was tricked.
After finishing the porridge, she put down the bowl, her body a little sticky due to the heat, “Give me some water, I want to take a bath.”
“Yes”
While Yun Mengqing was soaking in the bathtub, she took out the pill that 001 had given her before he left. This pill could eliminate all the illnesses of the original owner, and it was the only good thing this useless system had done.
After taking the pill, I felt the changes in my body. I felt warm and the feeling of weakness that had been with me since I woke up disappeared instantly.
It is indeed produced by the system.
After I felt comfortable, I finally wanted to take a good look at this body. I took the small mirror placed next to the tub and took a closer look at my current appearance.
The face is beautiful, the eyes are like autumn water, the gaze is radiant. The skin is as white as snow, and the lips are red as if painted with rouge. The corners of the person’s lips are slightly curved, as if the person is smiling, which makes them even more charming.
Such a stunning beauty, No wonder she attracts the jealousy of other girls at the age of fourteen. If she grows up, she will definitely be the most stunning beauty in the country.
But why is it so similar to her previous appearance, at least 70% similar? She frowned in confusion.
No wonder 001 said before he left that the original body’s appearance would slowly become more like hers. Now that she is 14, even if she slowly grows into her appearance, people will only think she is maturing.
After seeing her current appearance, Yun Mengqing’s discomfort of possessing someone else’s body faded a little. After all, she didn’t want to live her whole life with someone else’s appearance. Yun Mengqing was Yun Mengqing.
She was very satisfied with her previous appearance, even in the entertainment industry where there are so many beauties, she ranks first.
She’s not bragging.
If Emperor Shengwu is the protagonist of this world, then she is more like the protagonist of the previous world. She was born in the wealthy Yun family and was raised as the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. She started to be successful in the entertainment industry at the age of sixteen. She has high popularity and acting skills, and her appearance is also one of the best.
When she was a teenager, she was just like the original owner, as soft and beautiful as a fairy in the moon, and she also gained a lot of fans from her mother.
In her twenties, she was already a charming beauty with big breasts, thin waist and long legs, and she had more and more female fans.
Unfortunately, I have never had a relationship, and now I am dragged back to ancient times and have to compete with a group of women for men.
She lowered her head and looked at the assets of her current body.
Tsk, it doesn’t matter if you don’t look at it. No wonder the emperor doesn’t favour her now. She is still too young.
Fortunately, she is still young and can still grow. So the requirements are not high. As long as she can grow into her previous size D.
Yun Mengqing is not in a hurry to compete for favours now. The original owner’s father is also a pretty good official, and she will not be short of money after entering the palace.
Even without the emperor’s favour, she could still live well with money, as long as no other concubines came to harm her. However, she was not a soft persimmon like the original owner.
If others do not offend me, I will not offend others. If anyone offends me, they will be punished.
This is a good time to recuperate and recharge your energy, as this body is too small to be suitable for sleeping with others.
