After the original host entered the palace, she focused all her attention on Nangong Jin, but the male lead ultimately belonged to the female lead.
The original host, with no one to rely on in the palace and lacking power, and possessing a beautiful appearance, was often ostracized and bullied by other concubines. During an assassination attempt on the male lead, she took a stab for him and died.
After her death, the original host learned that her first encounter with Nangong Jin on the street was all his design, merely to secure greater loyalty from the Prime Minister and his faction.
Upon learning that his daughter had died taking a stab for the male lead, while the male lead showed no concern for his beloved daughter’s life, the Prime Minister blackened. He became the greatest villain obstructing the male lead’s path to unifying the world. On several occasions, he nearly killed the male lead, but the male lead’s powerful halo protected him. Eventually, this doting father was framed, leading to the tragic downfall of his entire family and the extermination of his clan.
The original host saw her father’s hair turn white and his face become aged and gaunt even as he was on the execution platform, crying out miserably and unable to avenge his daughter.
Looking at her father’s snow-white hair and his aged, haggard face, the original host regretted her youthful naivete and foolishness, which had not only ruined herself and her father but also the entire Bai family.
After accepting the memories, Ming Li raised her hand to rub her forehead speechlessly. "What is the mission?"
The system quietly appeared. "Host, there are two tasks. This lifetime, Bai Mingli wishes to stay away from the male and female leads, and she also hopes her father can live the rest of his life in peace."
Ming Li: "......?!" She felt the mission was too simple. Why wasn't it to directly eliminate the male and female leads?!
System: "......?!" Why did it feel like the host's gaze was a little off?
The timing of Ming Li’s transmigration was early. It was still three years before the original host would meet Nangong Jin. At this time, Nangong Jin had not yet ascended the throne of the Nine-Five Supreme. Everything could still be changed.
Ming Li put on her clothes and sat before the vanity mirror, carefully examining her current face.
One had to admit, the original host truly possessed a stunning visage. No wonder the young masters from aristocratic families had almost worn down the threshold of the Prime Minister's mansion to propose marriage to the original host. Unfortunately, the original host was solely focused on the male lead, breaking the hearts of many young men.
Ming Li got up and disappeared from the room.
Not long after, Ming Li's figure appeared in the Prime Minister's study.
The system reappeared. "Host, why are we in the Prime Minister's study?"
Ming Li glanced indifferently at the little ball of fluff in her space. "......Why does this system seem to have a problem with its brain? It doesn't even know something this simple."
System: "......?!" Why did it feel like the host was looking at it as if it were an idiot?! No! It must have misread! It absolutely must have!
While the system was muttering, the study door was pushed open from the outside. The person who entered was none other than the one Ming Li was waiting for, the old Prime Minister.
As the Prime Minister pushed the door open, he sensed someone inside. He just hadn't expected that person to be his daughter. The Prime Minister looked at his daughter standing by his desk with a calm expression. He felt something was different, but the Prime Minister was quite sure that this was his daughter; there was no mistake.
"What brings you to your father, Lier?" the Prime Minister asked lovingly.
Ming Li: "Father, your daughter wants to venture into the martial world."
