My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Hui fell into deep thought.

Hui believes she has traveled through time.

However, he didn't know who he was before he traveled through time!

The reason for this is that Hui's previous failure to break through to level 6 caused damage to her soul, which resulted in her losing her memories after transmigrating.

However, after transmigrating, Hui could no longer feel the tearing pain deep within her soul. It wasn't that the pain disappeared; it still existed, but she couldn't feel it in her original body.

Huineng now recalls the world before he traveled to the present, but he can't remember who he is.

At that moment, the memories of the original owner of this body, mixed with her endless resentment and sorrow, flooded into Hui's mind.

Faced with this sudden experience, Hui thought to herself, "This is bad."

Because in Hui's memory, this feeling is often the scene when the protagonist has to accept the original owner's memories after transmigrating.

This process of receiving memories is often accompanied by pain, and in many cases, the transmigrator must also inherit the original owner's last wishes.

Hui is now very afraid of pain. In the memories she can recall, she vaguely feels that she should be a delicate little girl.

It seems that the most painful thing I've ever experienced was when I was sick in kindergarten and my mom took me to get a shot!

Hui screamed again, terrified by her own thoughts.

"what!--"

······

"ah--???"

The expected pain did not come.

However, the original owner of this body has successfully obtained 14 years of memories.

Similarly, Hui didn't experience any of the original owner's last wishes.

All I gained were very pure memories.

And it still feels like watching a movie.

In other words, if Hui doesn't want this memory, she doesn't have to.

"Huh?! As expected, novels are all lies."

The novel didn't lie. Accepting 16 years of memories all at once would definitely be painful and subject you to the original owner's emotions.

However, Hui's ethereal soul essence did not disappear because of the injury.

Instead, they became unbearably thirsty because of their injuries.

The moment the remnant soul of the original owner of this body came into contact with Hui's soul, it was completely devoured by Hui's insatiable soul. As for the original owner's emotions carried in the remnant soul, they were just a joke in front of the void soul.

"However, the experiences of the original owner of this body are truly filled with a sense of sorrow." After digesting the original owner's memories, Hui felt a little sorry for the original owner of this body.

In Hui's memories.

This world is somewhat similar to the Song Dynasty in my original world, and miraculously, the official language is Chinese.

However, unlike the Celestial Empire in Hui's previous life, the founding emperor of the Xia Dynasty in this world directly wiped out the ethnic minorities and nomadic peoples in the north.

Therefore, the territory of the Xia Dynasty was much larger than that of the original Song Dynasty.

The Xia Dynasty has been ruled by more than a dozen emperors, and the current emperor is named Xia Wuwei.

The original owner of this body, well, had a relationship with the current emperor.

The original owner was a concubine of the reigning emperor Xia Wuwei before her death.

She even wanted to reach the rank of Imperial Noble Consort!

Chapter 173 Dong'er

However, the original owner of this imperial concubine was just a joke from beginning to end.

The original owner's name was: Dong'er.

It's just two very simple characters, without a surname.

The reason she was named Dong'er was because the original owner of this body was sold by human traffickers to the Nangong family, a minor official family in Suzhou, Jiangnan, in the winter.

Dong'er was only 5 years old at the time and knew nothing.

The steward of the Nangong family, who was in charge of buying people, had long since developed a keen eye. When Dong'er was 5 years old, he could vaguely tell from her facial bones that this girl would definitely grow up to be a beauty.

That's why the Nangong family bought her and trained Dong'er to be a dancer. Once Dong'er's body matured, she would be good for entertaining important people or for their own enjoyment.

In Dong'er's earliest memories, she diligently learned dance, musical instruments, needlework, and poetry from the dancing ladies in the mansion every day. Of course, as a dancing lady, she also had to learn how to please men, which was a required course every night.

Time passed slowly, and eight years went by. Dong'er turned 13.

During this period, Dong'er's body and posture also fully developed under the deliberate nurturing of the Nangong family.

After eight years of training as a dancer, Dong'er became the brightest pearl among the dancers of the Nangong family.

When Dong'er dances, she wears a semi-transparent gauze dress, with a red silk bodice peeking out from underneath. At her waist, she wears a platinum navel ring inlaid with beautiful jade, connected to a silver bell tied around her waist, which jingles as she dances.

In particular, her elegant face would be adorned with delicate plum blossom makeup. With every smile and frown, her originally delicate and beautiful face would shed its youthful naiveté and reveal a touch of charm that was captivating and mesmerizing.

The transformation from a pure and beautiful celestial being to a prostitute who has fallen to earth and attracts all sorts of attention is so extreme that it would only make any man who sees her lose his soul and mind, wanting nothing more than to pin the beauty down and ravage her.

And all of this is the result of the Nangong family's deliberate cultivation.

Years of training as a courtesan have made Dong'er, at only thirteen, already graceful and charming, with a slender waist, beautiful hips, and eyes full of spring. People who don't know her might mistake her for the top prostitute kept in some brothel.

However, in reality, the Nangong family did not remove Dong'er's red pill.

A woman's first time is incredibly precious.

The value of a virgin is incomparable to that of a woman who has already had sexual relations.

The Nangong family wanted to mold Dong'er into a priceless luxury item, so virginity was essential. This is why Dong'er, a dancer, was still able to maintain her virginity at the age of 13.

Although Dong'er could display her charm and allure in every gesture.

But Dong'er didn't feel that way. She longed for the ordinary, virtuous woman described in the book. To marry a man, remain faithful to him until death, have several children, and live a simple, peaceful life—that was Dong'er's greatest dream.

However, Dong'er also knew that respectable women were too far removed from her, and that her future fate was to be offered to a powerful figure and become his plaything.

If she's lucky, she might even get the title of concubine; if she's unlucky, she might drift like duckweed after she grows old and loses her beauty, without any stable home, wasting her life.

However, everything took a turn for the better when Dong'er turned 13.

Because, in this year, Nangong Bingqing, the most mysterious and youngest daughter of the Nangong family head, returned.

From as far back as she could remember, Dong'er often heard the legends of the most mysterious young lady in the Nangong family.

It is said that when this little girl was born, a strange phenomenon occurred in the sky. The originally ordinary sky suddenly shone with a bright red light, more dazzling than the aurora and more beautiful than the sunset. It hovered straight in the sky and finally condensed into a phoenix. The fire phoenix cried out in the sky and circled nine times before turning into a pillar of light and entering the body of Nangong Bingqing, who was just born.

People say this is an omen of an empress who will rule the world.

However, when Nangong Bingqing was 5 years old, she fell ill and sought out famous doctors all over the world, but none of them could cure her. Just when Nangong Bingqing was critically ill, a strange man who called himself the Old Man of Tianshan said that he could cure Nangong Bingqing, but there was a condition: after the illness was cured, Nangong Bingqing had to go with him to Tianshan to learn martial arts until the time was perfected.

As for what constitutes perfection, that person didn't say.

Nangong Xian, the head of the Nangong family and Nangong Bingqing's father, agreed, taking a "nothing to lose" approach.

That strange man was indeed capable; after a period of closed-door treatment, Nangong Bingqing's illness was cured. As for the method, it remains unknown.

The Nangong family dared not offend such a capable and extraordinary person, so they could only abide by the agreement, and thus Nangong Bingqing was taken away.

That departure lasted for ten years.

Now, 15-year-old Nangong Bingqing has returned.

This incident caused a sensation throughout the entire Jiangnan region.

the reason is simple.

Because everyone who has seen Nangong Bingqing calls her from the bottom of their heart: the most beautiful woman in the world!

In Dong'er's memory, the scene of Nangong Bingqing's first return to the Nangong Mansion is still fresh in her mind.

She was a fifteen-year-old girl with eyes like water, yet carrying a faint chill, seemingly uninterested in anything in the world. Her face was unadorned, yet her stunning beauty remained undeniable. Her fingers were slender, her skin like jade, snow-white with a hint of pink, seemingly dripping with moisture. Her lips, like cherry blossoms, were full of life. Every movement she made seemed like a dance. Her long hair, tied back to her waist with a simple white ribbon, allowed a strand of black hair to flutter in the wind, emitting a delicate fragrance. Her waist was slender, her limbs long and graceful. Dressed in a simple white dress, she appeared like a fairy descended from heaven.

Nangong Bingqing's first appearance amazed everyone.

Her fame grew and grew until it spread throughout the world.

Of course, whether the Nangong family played a role in this is unknown.

A month later, an imperial edict arrived from the palace.

The emperor directly summoned Nangong Bingqing to the palace.

In Dong'er's memory, she seized this opportunity and became one of the six maids that Nangong Bingqing brought with her when she entered the palace.

Dong'er never thought about becoming a phoenix by climbing the social ladder. She just felt that being a palace maid until the age of 25 would allow her to choose to leave the palace and regain her freedom. This was much better than being a plaything of some important person, and it would also bring her closer to being a respectable woman!

But as it turned out, this was one step closer to the abyss.

After entering the palace.

Following Nangong Bingqing, Dong'er met Emperor Xia Wuwei at the Yuqian Palace, thus beginning her tragic life.

Dong'er still vividly remembers the scene of her first meeting with Xia Wuwei.

The Imperial Palace is a magnificent hall with many large red pillars supporting its interior. Each pillar is carved with a lifelike golden dragon that coils around it, making it exceptionally spectacular.

Inside the hall, on the gilded dragon throne, sat Emperor Xia Wuwei.

Xia Wuwei is exceptionally handsome and is estimated to be around twenty-seven years old.

The bright yellow robe was embroidered with a pattern of dragons soaring over the sea. Beneath the surging golden waves at the hem of the robe, the sleeves fluttered high in the wind, and the long, flying eyebrows were slightly raised.

His pupils, as black as ink, shimmered with a warm light. His handsome face was bathed in the morning light, exuding a godlike majesty and innate nobility. He emanated an aura of kingship that seemed to see through everything, and a knowing smile graced his refined and handsome face.

Dong'er blushed when she first met Emperor Xia.

Chapter 174 Qi

However, Dong'er noticed that Xia Wuwei's gaze was always on Nangong Bingqing, and he hadn't paid any attention to her behind Nangong Bingqing.

A sense of loss welled up in her heart, and Dong'er, who already felt ashamed in front of Nangong Bingqing, quickly suppressed her little thoughts deep in her heart.
