Transmigrated into a cunning princess, she sets her sights on a celibate royal uncle.

"king……"

Bai Lu returned from outside and was surprised to see Huo Jingxuan in the courtyard. Just as she was about to bow, Huo Jingxuan raised his hand to interrupt her.

Huo Jingxuan's face was ashen, and his black clothes almost blended into the twilight.

He exuded an aura of unapproachable asceticism.

Bai Lu didn't even dare to look up at him. Seeing Huo Jingxuan stride away, she quickly stepped aside to make way for him.

Inside the room, Bei Ying, after hearing the doctor's words, scratched her head in confusion: "But she clearly just now..."

He looks like he's about to die!

"I'm fine! Thank you for your help, doctor!"

Jiang Xi waved her hand, indicating that she did not need to see a doctor, and the doctor bowed and withdrew.

Bei Ying stood in the middle of the passageway between the two earthen beds, arms crossed, touching her chin: "Are you really alright?"

Jiang Xi raised an eyebrow: "Do I look like something's wrong to you?"

The little girl had a rosy complexion, red lips, and white teeth; she certainly didn't look sick.

The contrast before and after is too great?

Beijing Film Academy expressed strong doubts.

"You came to me want your cloak back, right? I was planning to wash it before giving it back to you, but if you're in a hurry, you can take it for now!"

Jiang Xi rummaged through a cabinet and took out the cloak that Beijing Film Academy had lent her, then handed it to him.

The Beijing Film Academy member readily agreed, saying, "This cape was sewn by my mother herself; it holds great significance for me!"

Jiang Xi nodded in understanding, and since it was inconvenient for Bei Ying to stay any longer, she also left.

Bai Lu hid in the shadows and only came out after Bei Ying left.

Seeing Jiang Xi sitting on the bed in only a single layer of clothing, he instantly became extremely displeased.

"I never expected that the Prince would find a doctor for a new servant like you!"

"Of course! I am his life!"

Jiang Xi was deliberately provoking, but from another perspective, that statement wasn't entirely wrong.

After all, because of the Twin Poison, no matter how much Huo Jingxuan hated her, he couldn't just watch her die of illness!

He can only live if she lives; isn't that his fate?

"shameless!"

Bai Lu was so angry that her face turned red and her neck bulged. She raised her hand to slap Jiang Xi, but Jiang Xi grabbed her wrist.

"Ahhhh, it hurts!"

Bai Lu's expression changed drastically, and she began to wail and howl.

This girl was normal before, when did she become so strong?

She felt like her wrist was about to be crushed.

Jiang Xi only knew that Yiling Pills could strengthen the body, but she didn't know that they could make her stronger.

I thought Bailu was just putting on an act.

"What hurts? Weren't you just swaggering around a moment ago?"

Bai Lu winced in pain, tears streaming down her face, yet she still cursed resentfully, "You freak!"

Seeing that she didn't seem to be faking it, Jiang Xi shook off her hand.

As soon as Bai Lu was freed, she immediately covered her wrist and backed away, afraid that Jiang Xi would hurt her again.

Jiang Xi also noticed that Bai Lu's wrist had turned completely red.

Has my strength really increased?

Jiang Xi looked at her hands, first in surprise, then overwhelmed with joy.

She said, how could someone chosen to travel through time not have any advantages?

"Don't be so smug. Just wait until Granny Liu gets back, you'll be in for a world of hurt!"

Bai Lu thought Jiang Xi was so happy because she felt he was afraid of her, so she made some harsh remarks.

Jiang Xi glanced at her, but ignored her completely, and went out to eat.

The Prince's mansion had many servants, and the dining hall for lowly maids like Jiang Xi was a small room next to the kitchen.

There are two rows of tables and chairs in the small house. You can take your own bowl and chopsticks to the door, find Granny Zhang who is in charge of meals, line up to get your food, and then sit down to eat.

Jiang Xi arrived not late, but when it was her turn, Zhang Mama's face darkened, and she deliberately picked a fight: "Did you do any work today? Do you still want to eat?"

"Isn't the rule of the Prince's Mansion that taking leave means having your wages deducted? Why aren't they providing meals?" Jiang Xi asked, raising an eyebrow.

Holding a rice ladle, Granny Zhang said aggressively, "Rules are made by people. This place is under my jurisdiction. I said you can't eat if you haven't done any work, and that means you can't eat!"

"you……"

Jiang Xigang was about to slap him across the face, but then she thought again that Huo Jingxuan wouldn't allow her to cause trouble.

Chuntao hasn't returned yet, so I'll have to be patient for now.

As soon as Chuntao returned, she tried every means to get the news of her being in the Regent's Palace out.

Lu Jian, the commander of the military garrison in the capital, was a confidant of the emperor.

When Lu Jian adopted Lu Ye as his godson, everyone thought it was because he believed the story of the goddess appearing in his dream.

In reality, Jiang Gu had only taken a liking to Lu Ye's talent and, through a clever scheme, sent Lu Ye to Lu Jian's side to serve as his general.

Otherwise, even if Lu Ye had let her off the hook that night, with so many guards in the palace dungeon, Jiang Xi wouldn't have been able to get out on her own.

Lu Jian's wife was saved by Jiang Xi, and her life was only prolonged by a poison called "Seven Stars".

This poison must be taken once every three months, otherwise the person seeking to prolong their life will eventually die from exhaustion.

When Lu Jian finds out he's trapped in the Regent's Palace, he'll definitely try his best to come and rescue him.

Having made up her mind, Jiang Xi decided to swallow her anger.

"If I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat. I'll just consider it a diet!"

After putting down her chopsticks, Jiang Xi was about to leave the dining hall, but then she felt unconvinced and turned around to go to the kitchen.

He grabbed a handful of ashes from the stove and, when no one was looking, threw them down on Granny Zhang's neck.

You're not going to feed her? Then you shouldn't eat either!

"Ugh, what is that...?"

Granny Zhang felt a chill on her neck, as if something had crawled inside.

While slapping her body, she turned her head to see who was playing the prank, but Jiang Xi had already run away.

"Granny Zhang, you've smeared ashes all over the rice bucket! How are we supposed to eat?"

"Yes, yes, you're in charge of the meals. The food is in such a state, you'd better make us a new one!"

"..."

The maids and servants who hadn't gotten their food yet crowded around, demanding that Granny Zhang redo it.

However, the daily meals are rationed, and once they're cooked, the head chef is no longer responsible for them.

If you want to redo it, you'll have to pay.

"It was clearly Xiao Qi who scattered the wood ash, go find her!"

Granny Zhang was naturally reluctant to part with it.

"She threw it at you, but you made a mess of dust everywhere!"

"Yes, yes, you and Xiaoqi can settle your own score, but we can't even eat because of you, you have to take responsibility!"

Everyone knows that Jiang Xi is just a newly arrived low-ranking maid, so what use is she?

Even if she was punished, they would still go hungry, so it would be better to drag Zhang Mama into paying for a redo.

"You, you..."

Zhang Mama originally wanted to please Liu Mama and avenge her.

Who would have thought that her attempt to steal a chicken would backfire, and all these people would turn against her?

Jiang Xi escaped, and there was no way to catch her red-handed. She had no choice but to accept her bad luck and pay out of her own pocket.

Jiang Xi waited for several days, but instead of Chun Tao, the divine physician Shang Que arrived.

"I heard that a distinguished guest has arrived at the manor today!"

"Yes, yes, I saw him when I went to serve tea. He was dressed in white, with a cool and otherworldly air, like a celestial being descended from heaven!"

"Huh? What's his name? What's he doing at the Prince's residence?"

"Hmm, I don't know, but I heard the Master of Beijing Film Academy call him a miracle doctor!"

The lower-ranking maids chatted idly in the backyard while washing the clothes of all the eunuchs in the mansion.

Jiang Xi was among them. Upon hearing the words "miracle doctor," a sharp sound ripped through her.

I used too much force and washed a piece of dark blue fabric, creating a tear in it.
