Transmigration: Reverse Exploitation, the System Works for Me

Back in her room, she couldn't wait to wash up, undress, and get into bed.

There was one more thing imprisoned on the Xuan Guang Bi: a round drop of blood.

Looking at the drop of blood, Xi Qiao felt that he had figured out another way to use the Xuan Guang Bi.

But that's not the most important thing; the most important thing is her experiment.

She opened the system, clicked the "Yes" button on the screen, and then followed the prompts to integrate her blood into the system.

"Ding~ Binding successful. Host: Suochuoluo Simin..."

The sudden voice startled Xi Qiao, and she quickly put away the Xuan Guang Bi, afraid that someone would hear the voice.

After a long while, once my heart had calmed down, I opened the system again. A new section, "Host Information," had appeared on the main page:

Host: Suochuoluo Simin

Rank: First-class palace maid

Skills: None

Achievements: None

Items: None

She then opened the task list, which clearly displayed the words "Serve the Emperor in Bed." The task reward was a "Beauty Pill," which didn't have any cosmetic surgery effects but would only improve the skin's condition and complexion, making it white, tender, and smooth.

The next morning, Chunzi packed her bags and went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to serve.

Xi Qiao had no interest in serving others, and told Aunt Sun Zhuxi that she felt unwell last night, perhaps because she had caught a chill and felt lightheaded and unsteady, and wanted to ask for another day off.

The Empress Dowager is currently well attended to by many people, and perhaps fearing that she might infect the Empress Dowager, Aunt Sun allowed her to rest for a few more days.

On the third night after Chunzi went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, a round, white pill appeared on the Xuan Guang Bi.

The next day, Xi Qiao announced that he had recovered and dressed in the attire of a first-class palace maid to serve in the main hall.

Empress Dowager Uya was elegant and dignified. When she saw Xi Qiao, she showed him some concern. Xi Qiao politely thanked the Empress Dowager for her concern and said a few words to express his loyalty. The Empress Dowager then asked him to leave.

The senior palace maids each had their own duties. Aunt Sun was the head maid in charge of palace affairs, Chunmao was in charge of the storeroom accounts, Chunrong was in charge of needlework and clothing, Chunyan was in charge of dressing and jewelry, and Chunzi had only been there for a short time and had not yet been assigned any specific tasks. She only did things like serving tea and water, relaying messages, and making people laugh.

Chunrong was skilled in needlework. At home, she supported herself and her sister by earning money through needlework. After entering the palace, she stood out with her embroidery and tailoring skills and was selected by Sun Zhuxi to work in Yonghe Palace.

The main hall of Yonghe Palace had underfloor heating, making it warm and cozy inside. However, the side rooms were as cold as ice caves. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager was not a demanding ruler and allowed the palace maids to rest and work in the right side room.

Chunrong had already become a first-class palace maid, and the embroidery and tailoring were done by the junior palace maids; she only needed to watch.

But embroidery is an extremely rare craft.

Although she had inherited Chunrong's memories, seeing something doesn't mean you can do it.

During her days of recuperation, she had tried her hand at needles and thread from Chunrong's cabinet, but the results were not ideal.

You need to practice more.

However, now is not the time. With the palace move imminent, she needs to pack up the Empress Dowager's clothes first and also keep an eye on things at Shou Kang Palace.

Xi Qiao left the task of packing the Empress Dowager's clothes to Qingzhu, the young palace maid who had always followed her, and left Yonghe Palace with Xiao Lezi. Xiao Lezi was a lowly eunuch who did menial work in the rear hall of Yonghe Palace. He looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old and had received favors from Chunrong.

Yonghe Palace is in the East Six Palaces, while Shou Kang Palace is west of the West Six Palaces. She had to walk back and forth between the East and West Six Palaces on foot. Fortunately, it hadn't snowed in the past two days.

Walking along the long, narrow palace path, Xi Qiao took out a five-tael silver ingot and gave it to Xiao Lezi, asking him to help inquire whether Yu Ying'er's name was on the list of candidates for the selection of palace maids.

Xiao Lezi agreed to the task, but resolutely refused the money.

"Take it. You need to bribe people when you go to the Imperial Household Department to ask for help. I can't expect you to spend money to do things for me. If you really feel bad about it, just help me out more often in the future."

Hearing her say that, Xiao Lezi finally accepted the money.
