Qing Dynasty: The Imperial Concubine is Pregnant Again

【Host】

Tong Nuanyan heard a faint mechanical sound in her ears. It had been a month since she came to the Qing Dynasty. During this month, Tong Nuanyan had been trying to contact 805, but there was no response. She thought 805 had not followed her and was about to give up, but she didn't expect to hear 805's voice at this moment.

"805, you sound a little weak. How come I couldn't contact you in this month?"

[Host, when you used all your superpowers to self-destruct, the stone you were wearing suddenly emitted a green light, and then we entered the space-time tunnel. I originally wanted to take you to the 21st century, but that stone was too overbearing. It locked me up in a small dark room for a month. Host, your stone bullied me, woo woo woo] 805's voice was both mechanical and soft, and she choked up more and more, and finally she wanted to cry like a child. Tong Nuanyan was a little amused and helpless for a moment: "Okay, okay, although we can't go to the 21st century, it's not bad here, 805, don't be sad, and here I can realize the things I was interested in in the end of the world."

As she spoke, Tong Nuanyan revealed a determined smile on her face. Noticing that 805 was still crying, she said, "805, you just said that it was the stone I was wearing that led us through time, right?" Upon hearing the question, 805 no longer cared about crying.

[Yes, the technology of that stone is better than mine. The host has worn it for several years and I didn't realize that the stone is high-tech.]

So, how could the stone, which she had worn for so long without any damage, activate the time tunnel when she blew herself up? The body here looked the same as it did at the end of the world. Tong Nuanyan didn't believe that there was no connection. "805, can you detect where the stone is now?"

[It’s strange to say, except for locking me up in a small dark room at the beginning, after coming here I feel that the stone’s restraint on me is getting smaller and smaller. I guess it’s still drifting in the Qing Dynasty today!] 805 couldn’t help but reveal a gloating tone in his voice, and Tong Nuanyan sighed helplessly.

"Since you can't find it, and there's no electricity here so you can't go out and investigate, you can only mobilize manpower to look for it."

...

...

Tong Nuanyan has regained her psychic powers with the help of 805 these days, but they are only at a basic level. It may be because she has changed her body, so she has to practice her powers all over again. It's a good thing and a bad thing. With mental power, she can have the ability to protect herself. After all, there is not much technology here. 805 can only provide knowledge but cannot protect her.

Tong Nuanyan was wearing a blue shirt and a small bun on her head that Yunxin had combed early in the morning, with a few pearl flowers pinned on it, delicate and elegant. When she came to the yard and saw Tong Nuanyan like this, Tong Jiayuyan, as a legitimate daughter, was a little annoyed. She walked over in her flower-pot shoes, "Nuannuan is out to appreciate the flowers too? Have you thought about what I said last time we went boating?"

The person who came was wearing a pink Manchu dress and had her hair in a bun, but the pearl flowers on it made it look more elegant and luxurious. She had a thin face, thin curved eyebrows, a pair of standard almond eyes, and a small upturned nose. She was a beautiful woman with a pretty face, and she was looking at her with a faint smile.

Tong Nuanyan was a little confused about the situation, but still replied with a smile, "Sister An, did you say anything when we were boating on the lake? Why don't I remember it? I only know that someone let me into the lake that day. I heard from the servants that you didn't come to visit me during the days when I was comatose." As she stared at Tong Yuyan, she naturally did not miss the panic that flashed across Tong Yuyan's face.

"What are you talking about, Nuannuan? Those servants are just gossiping. When you were in a coma, I also had a high fever, so I didn't go to see you. Oh, let's not talk about this. I heard from my father that the Emperor will hold a talent show this year..." Tong Yuyan smiled and stepped forward to gently hold Nuanyan's hand, pulling her to the pavilion and sitting down. Although she was smiling all the time, Tong Nuanyan still felt that her smile was fake.

Tong Yuyan sat down and continued, "Nuannuan, do you think His Majesty is selecting concubines for the princes?" She looked at Tong Nuanyan intently, as if trying to figure out something, but unfortunately, Tong Nuanyan was no longer the same Tong Nuanyan as before. "Sister, why are you so concerned about His Majesty's selection? Could it be that you... have taken a fancy to a prince?" After teasing Tong Yuyan without any psychological burden, she looked at her with a smile.

"Oh, Nuannuan, father said that both of us have to participate. He's worried that if my sister is not selected, she will be looked down upon!" It turned out that he was waiting here. Tong Nuanyan's current identity is Longkodo's concubine's daughter. Naturally, her status is not as good as Tong Yuyan in front of her, but with Longkodo as her father, she will not be worse than others.

"Thank you for your kind reminder, sister. The doctor said that my sister is not fully recovered yet, so I won't disturb you from enjoying the flowers." Then he led Yun Xin around Tong Yuyan and returned to his own courtyard. At night, Yun Xin helped to remove her makeup and couldn't help asking, "Princess, why are you so polite to the eldest princess today? Look at her, she must have come here specially today." Yun Xin was a little angry, but she didn't stop her hands, and she combed her hair steadily and applied plum blossom oil.

Tong Nuanyan said with some amusement, "You, I know you can't stand her behavior, but now we are still under the same roof, it's better to have less trouble. Didn't she say today that the Emperor is going to hold a beauty contest? After the contest, I will let you be my dowry, and we will go together." Yun Xin was also very good to the original Tong Nuanyan. No matter which prince she was assigned to after the contest, she would take Yun Xin away.

"Princess, I grew up with you. Wherever you are, I will be there." Yun Xin responded happily with a sincere look on her face.

[Host, are you really going to participate in a talent show? I have a way to prevent you from participating.]

Tong Nuanyan was lying in bed and hadn't fallen asleep when she suddenly heard 805's voice and replied, "805, I know you are doing this for my own good, but there are no zombies here. It feels really good to be an ordinary person. I like it very much."

[Host, since this is your choice, I will always be by your side! ]

"Thank you for understanding me, 805"

[Actually, I don't understand, but I will follow your decision, because you are my host. I will help the host live a more comfortable life in this backward dynasty. Although I can't provide high technology, I can provide some material changes. Host, let's find someone we can trust to do business with? In this dynasty, money is very useful. ]

Tong Nuanyan was also moved by 805's suggestion. Yes, money is the best thing to do here. "It's very backward here. All I learned in the apocalypse is killing zombies and people, but I don't know how to do business. 805, do you have any good ideas?"

[Selling female products, perfumes, and cosmetics are the most profitable, but the most scarce product now is 'sanitary napkins'. It is still due to backwardness and the lack of attention to women. Women now use menstrual belts, which are filled with plant ash to absorb, which is very unhygienic. If we make sanitary napkins, they will definitely be very popular.]

After listening to 805's analysis, Tong Nuanyan felt that this was feasible and all that was needed now was a reliable candidate.
