Su Chanyi traveled through time from two years ago. At that time, she was still a sixteen-year-old girl. Because she was good-looking, gentle, efficient, and had learned good embroidery, the marquis's wife promoted her to be her maid, and she served her closely together with Dongqing, Baisu, and Danzhu.

Fortunately, she inherited all the memories and abilities of the original owner after she came here, otherwise how could a little girl who grew up in modern society learn embroidery? Wouldn't it be discovered that she was a fake very soon?

Su Chanyi was born into a family of traditional Chinese medicine. The name Chanyi was given by her grandfather, which is the name of a Chinese medicine.

That year, she was 18 years old and had just received an admission letter from a medical university. She happily went on a graduation trip with her friends. However, an accident happened while rafting. The fast-flowing river overturned the hovercraft she was riding in. She was violently hit by the sharp-edged rocks and fainted.

When she woke up again, she found herself in this strange world. She actually had the same name and appearance as the original owner, but was two years older. However, the original owner was abducted by human traffickers when she was young, so her age was difficult to verify.

Since she was here, she had to make the best of it. She had to live well first. From then on, she served the lady carefully, abided by her duties, and never said a word. Because she was born with a deficiency and suffered from heart disease, she pretended to have a heart disease occasionally and acted weak.

She knew that the mansion had a rule that if maids were still unmarried at the age of 20, they could be released from the mansion to marry if they asked their master to do so. Therefore, she pretended to have a heart disease and looked sick and weak from time to time, so that the servants in the mansion would not ask the marquis' wife to marry her.

In this strange world, men marry a wife to continue the family line and to help the family with work. Even if a girl is very beautiful, she is delicate and weak, and no family except the rich is willing to marry her.

Su Chanyi counted on her fingers every day, thinking that she only had to endure another three or four years. After that, she would ask the marquis's wife to leave the mansion, set up a female household, save some money, hire a few people, open a small shop, and maybe she could live a comfortable life.

The population of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion is simple. The Marquis is often on patrol in the border areas. Perhaps because he is away from home for a long time, his wife Wang only gave birth to one son, Pei Jin. However, his concubine Liu, who serves the Marquis, gave birth to two sons and one daughter. She is extremely favored and is almost forty years old, but still looks delicate.

However, the Marquis's wife Wang was not bothered by the sight, so she allowed Concubine Liu and her two sons and one daughter to follow the army with the Marquis. Concubine Liu was also happy. After all, she didn't have to follow the etiquette of a concubine outside, and the Marquis's subordinates outside also called her Madam, which made her very happy. Over the years, except for the occasional trip back to the capital with the Marquis, she almost regarded herself as the Marquis's legal wife.

Therefore, in the backyard of the mansion, apart from the marquis's wife Wang and two unfavored old concubines, there was no one else.

The Crown Prince Pei Jin was the Crown Prince's companion and spent most of his time in the palace. Su Chanyi didn't have many opportunities to meet him. Besides, Pei Jin was always arrogant. It was said that even the Crown Prince's sister, Princess Qingyuan, showed her affection to him, but he played dumb and fooled her.

Seeing that he had reached adulthood, the Marquis's wife was very worried. She tried many times to arrange a marriage for him, but he refused every time with various reasons.

The Marquis's wife had no choice but to select a few good-looking and gentle maids to be his concubines. However, he refused to take them in because they were uneducated and could not communicate well with him.

If the Marquis's wife said a few more words, he would use the excuse of being busy with official business to live outside. The Marquis's wife had no choice, she only had this one legitimate son, and he was outstanding in every way, so she could only follow his temperament.

In early summer last year, the Rong Kingdom in the northern border invaded, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince volunteered to lead the troops to fight. As His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's right-hand man, Pei Jin was bound to follow him.

The night before the expedition, the supporters of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw them off. The Tianxiang Tower was packed with distinguished guests. Everyone knew that the purpose of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's expedition was for His Majesty to establish his prestige. When the Rong army was defeated and he returned to the capital, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's position as the crown prince would be more secure, and Pei Jin, who was accompanying him, would surely be a close minister to the new emperor in the future.

After three rounds of drinks, everyone was a little tipsy.

"Shenzhi, you are already an adult. Look, we are all married, but you are still single." Gu Qingfeng, the son of Changning Marquis, smiled maliciously while holding the wine glass.

"Shen Zhiding has never tasted a woman, what a pity." Li Zan, the son of Li Taifu, laughed mischievously.

"Do you want me to choose a delicate dancer for you to have some sex with? Haha..." Gu Qingfeng clapped his hands and laughed.

"You guys, stop making fun of Shen Zhi. Shen Zhi has a noble character, unlike you guys." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Jing Hao shook his head and said, "Please don't make fun of him."

"Your Highness, you are shielding him. Does that mean we are not of noble character?" Li Zan said deliberately with dissatisfaction, and turned back and blinked at Gu Qingfeng.

Gu Qingfeng stood up, took a pot of wine, secretly poured some medicine powder into it, strode to the silent Pei Jin, patted his shoulder and said: "Shenzhi, I toast you a glass, and wish you a successful start."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine jug and filled the glass in front of him. He then filled his own glass, clinked it against his glass, and turned around to drink it all.

Seeing him drink, Pei Jin had no choice but to pick up the glass and drink a glass reluctantly. Now, Gu Qingfeng also squeezed over and insisted on pulling him to drink with him.

The three of them were toasting each other, and before they knew it, Pei Jin felt a little dizzy and had a strange feeling on his body. He knew something was wrong, so he bit his tongue and calmed down. He made an excuse to go to the bathroom, deceived everyone, and didn't bother to say goodbye to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He got on his own carriage and hurried back to the Marquis' Mansion.

When he got off the carriage, his eyes were red and his body was covered with sweat. As soon as he entered his yard, he jumped into the lotus pond with a "plop".

The servant Mo Yan was so frightened that he panicked and quickly informed the Marquis. Upon hearing this, the Marquis quickly took Madam Zhou, Chan Yi and Dan Zhu into the Bamboo Fragrance Garden.

Under the bright moonlight, Pei Jin was seen floating on the surface of the lotus pond without moving. Wang was so frightened that she shouted, "Shenzhi, Shenzhi, come here quickly!"

After a long time, Pei Jin swam back to the shore slowly. Wang saw that his eyes were red, and she reached out to touch his forehead, which was hot to the touch.

"My son? What happened to you? Mo Yan has already gone to ask the court doctor, just hold on a little longer." Wang's eyes were filled with tears, not knowing what was wrong with her son.

"Mother, someone drugged me. They don't want me to go to war with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tomorrow." Pei Jin gritted his teeth, his whole body felt like it was about to explode.
