The moment the rope was tied around her neck, Yu Ying'er was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe. The feeling of suffocation filled her brain and tiny beads of blood oozed from her neck. She seemed to see her deceased mother in the mist, and the flickering figure seemed to be calling her.

She was unwilling to die just like that, and she struggled with her eyes wide open, but in the end she was completely out of strength, her hands dropped, and she died.

The cold palace was desolate, just like the snowy season when Yu Ying'er first met Yinzhen, icy and bone-chilling.

Yu Ying'er's soul floated in the air, watching as Concubine Hua sent Zhou Ninghai to collect her body after the storm. Zhou Ninghai kept muttering that he was lucky to have Concubine Hua's mercy.

Yes, I am of low status, no one can look up to me, only Hua Fei is willing to take me under her wing and guide me. Although... my death is inseparable from Hua Fei, this cannot erase the help Hua Fei gave me when I was desperate.

"Yu Ying'er, if you were allowed to live your life again, would you be willing to help the Nian family escape from suffering?"

The ethereal voices came from all directions, causing Yu Ying'er to look around in fear, not daring to ask who was speaking.

"Yu Ying'er? Are you willing?"

The voice rang out again, startling Yu Ying'er so much that she trembled and asked tremblingly, "Why are you helping me?"

After experiencing a lifetime, Yu Ying'er knew very well that there was no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world, so she was very wary of the voice that came from nowhere, but she was more afraid.

"You don't have to think that I can do anything bad to you. If you weren't the only one I could choose, I wouldn't be willing to choose you. Anyway, as long as you promise to help Concubine Hua get rid of her love-brain, live out her true self, and help the Nian family change their destiny, I can give you a chance to be reborn. Don't worry, I will be by your side to guide you, and will definitely not let you go down the dead end of your previous life." There was a hint of disdain in the ethereal voice, and he was even more unwilling to hand over the matter entirely to Yu Ying'er.

It was a fool. It didn't expect Yu Ying'er to become smart if she lived again.

"I do!" Yu Ying'er said firmly, fearing that the voice would regret it. However, she had some doubts in her heart, so she couldn't help asking, "It's just that Concubine Hua has a proud family background, is graceful, and is favored by the emperor. And General Nian is also highly regarded by the emperor. The Nian family is already prosperous, why do I need to change their fate?"

The owner of the voice did not say much, but only transmitted to Yu Ying'er all the developments of the plot after Yu Ying'er's death.

After watching it, Yu Ying'er just felt like she had a lump in her stomach that she couldn't vent.

The emperor's actions made her sigh and even feel a little sick. The fate of Concubine Hua made her feel as if she saw the despair before her own death, and she could empathize with him.

"Please help me, gods. I want to be reborn. I want to change the fate of the queen." Yu Ying'er was talking about Concubine Hua, not the Nian family. Concubine Hua was grateful to her, but the Nian family had nothing to do with her. She just did it for Concubine Hua's sake.

The owner of the voice nodded in satisfaction and said, "My name is Qiqi. You can call me if you need anything. Go and change your life."

……

The winter night's cold wind was biting. A woman wearing a simple fur collar, carrying a basket in her hands, and dressed in a pale purple palace maid's uniform that had been washed so much that it turned pale, slowly opened her eyes.

Looking at the familiar Yime Garden, the suffocating feeling was gone. Yu Ying'er seemed to wake up from a dream and began to breathe in big gulps of fresh air. The cold air entered her throat and she felt very cold.

"What am I doing..." Yu Ying'er pinched herself, surprised that this was not a dream, she really went back to the time before she met the emperor.

Not long after, a familiar voice was heard in the center of the Mei Garden. It was still so gentle and pleasant, but it made Yu Ying'er hate it so much.

"If you understand the meaning of the adverse wind, don't be easily destroyed."

It’s Zhen Huan!

When Yu Ying'er thought about how she died such a miserable death in her previous life, which was caused by An Lingrong's surrender to Zhen Huan, she wanted to rush over and strangle Zhen Huan to death.

"If you don't want to die, don't move!" Qiqi quickly realized what Yu Ying'er was thinking and immediately threatened her.

Yu Ying'er was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet, but she was afraid of death, so she had to keep calm.

Everything developed as he remembered. The emperor and Zhen Huan had an encounter they had never met before, and then they each left.

After everyone had left, Yime Garden returned to its former tranquility, and Qiqi began to teach.

"Later, I will give you a beauty pill to help you improve your appearance and temperament. I will also give you a pill to give birth to a son and a pill to give birth to a daughter to help you complete the initial counterattack. As for the later stage, if you need the assistance of the golden finger, you will need to complete things that can advance the task to get points to buy it. Do you understand what I mean?" Qiqi instructed patiently, and her voice changed from ethereal at the beginning to a slightly cold, but childish male voice.

Yu Ying'er nodded to show that she understood, and then asked, "Then... I used the beauty pill, what if others find out about my changes?"

"Don't worry about this, I will take care of it. Also, you need to take the fertility pill when necessary, and the fertility pill for a girl needs to be thrown out to attract firepower for you. I will arrange this, you just need to follow my pace." Qiqi looked at Yu Ying'er, who had a confused look on her face, and said helplessly.

So it became Qiqi who was responsible for talking big, and Yu Ying'er nodded in agreement.

After everything was arranged, Yu Ying'er carried the basket of plum blossoms back to the lower room of Yimeyuan. Everyone else had gone to bed early, but Yu Ying'er had to put plum blossoms in the vase before she could wash up and go to bed.

Sleeping on that hard wooden bed, covered with a quilt that barely kept her warm, Yu Ying'er found it a little difficult to adapt at first.

After being a mistress for a while, I found that the quilt that I thought was extremely comfortable when I entered the palace had become so unbearable.

It is really easy to go from simple to rich, but difficult to go from rich to simple.

Yu Ying'er was so lost in thought that she didn't sleep the whole night. The next day, she used the beauty pill to avoid looking haggard.

After taking the beauty pill, Yu Ying'er didn't even have time to get some water to check her appearance before she was pulled by a maid. The maid said that Eunuch Su from the Palace of Tranquil Longevity had arrived and seemed to have some decree, so she was told to change her clothes quickly and kneel down to receive him.

Of course Yu Ying'er knew what Su Peisheng was here for, and she also naturally knew that this was the beginning of her miserable life.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but rely on Qiqi and asked quickly: "What should I do?"

"As usual, let's go to the Imperial Court first. You are always closer to Concubine Hua than I am. After you get the order and go to the Yangxin Palace, I will tell you in your mind what to do next. Just follow my answer." Qiqi comforted.

Seeing that there was someone to back her up, Yu Ying'er felt more at ease and went out to kneel and wait for the opportunity.

However, Su Peisheng, just like in his previous life, used the reason of seeking happiness during the New Year and rewarding couplets as an excuse to throw out the phrase "even against the wind seems to understand my meaning".

Yu Ying'er almost had the second half of the poem engraved in her soul and would never forget it for the rest of her life.

"Don't destroy it easily." Yu Ying'er raised her voice, which was crisp and pleasant, and was particularly eye-catching in the silent crowd.

Su Peisheng looked at Yu Ying'er, not knowing what he was thinking. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Follow me and go to the emperor to receive the reward."

Yu Ying'er responded, stood up and followed Su Peisheng and Xiao Xiazi. She was taciturn and no longer had the poor look of her previous life who had never seen the world and always couldn't help looking left and right cautiously.

After being changed into clothes and taught the rules, Yu Ying'er was assigned to serve tea to the emperor. Besides the emperor, the Seventeenth Master was also sitting in the room.

The words of the Seventeenth Master in the previous life seemed to still ring in her ears, and Yu Ying'er was so scared that her face turned pale. If it weren't for Qiqi's reminder, she would have backed out. After pouring the tea, Yu Ying'er didn't dare to say much, but just stood aside with her head down and didn't say anything.

"Is this tea brewed with snow water from plum blossoms? Why does it have a plum blossom fragrance?" The emperor's voice was as calm as an ancient well. His eyes were fixed on the chessboard, not giving Yu Ying'er even the slightest glance.

Yu Ying'er had the standard answer from her previous life to copy, so she immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have been tending to the flowers and plants in the Yimei Garden for many years, and I have a little bit of the plum blossom scent on me."

It was not known whether it was Yu Ying'er's gentle and pleasant voice or the Plum Garden that aroused some interest in the emperor, but he lazily raised his eyes and looked at Yu Ying'er with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Yu Ying'er's current appearance is bright and flamboyantly beautiful, but because of her timid appearance, she looks a bit weak. It seems contradictory, but it is really attractive. She is simply a combination of Gua Liu and An Lingrong.

"When did you come to serve in front of the emperor?" The emperor put the chess piece in his hand into the box, as if he had lost interest in playing chess, and looked at Yu Ying'er.

Yu Ying'er answered based on her memories from her previous life, without showing any timidity.

"How could I not know that there is such a talented maid in the royal brother's palace?" The Seventeenth Master said this out of the blue, making his suspicion of Yu Ying'er clear.

After all… she wasn’t like the person on the little elephant last night.

Yu Ying'er shuddered slightly, and took up what Qiqi had said, "I didn't know this line of poetry at first. Yesterday in the Imperial Garden, I heard a maid from some palace say this line. Today, I just happened to answer Eunuch Su's couplet. I don't deserve the praise from Master Seventeen."

The emperor fumbled with the ring on his thumb without saying anything, as if he was thinking about something.
