In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Chapter 290 Do You Know - Xiao Qinshi 17

Qin Wanrong glanced at Aunt Xing and did not refuse her to come over. After all, she did not tell her before not because she did not trust Aunt Xing, but because she was afraid that Aunt Xing's acting skills were not good enough and she would be exposed after knowing the official's identity. Now that the official has decided to postpone it, she will not be afraid of anything if she tells Aunt Xing.

"Mammy, that Young Master Zhao is the emperor!" the clerk whispered in Mammy Xing's ear.

"Oh my god!" Aunt Xing wanted to say something, but when she saw Qin Wanrong's calm expression and thought of the jade hairpin she had waited for on her coming-of-age day, she suddenly lost interest. "It's fine if you're the emperor, but you can't let my young lady down!"

Seeing Aunt Xing's expression change so quickly, Qin Wanrong smiled sincerely. She said to Aunt Xing seriously, "Aunt Xing, don't worry. Your daughter has never been a simple and naive daughter. She was just acting before."

"Miss, are you telling the truth?" Nanny Xing believed it a little. She was the one who raised Qin Wanrong and she knew her character quite well. However, when she first saw Qin Wanrong like that, she thought that although Qin Wanrong was very scheming, it was normal for a young girl to be in love.

Qin Wanrong smiled and nodded, and continued, "I originally thought that with my current situation, I would have no chance of marrying into a wealthy family, but I would not be willing to just find a random family."

"Later, Lord Qin and his wife created another scandal, telling others that although I, Qin Wanrong, was nominally the daughter of the Marquisate, in reality, there was no benefit in marrying me. There was no dowry and no connections. Now, even a small family might not be able to marry into the family."

When Qin Wanrong said this, she was still fine, but the considerate clerk and Nanny Xing, who felt sorry for Qin Wanrong, started crying first.

"My poor lady, why is your life so miserable..."

Qin Wanrong took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears of Xing Mama and Wenshu while continuing, "Later, I thought, since they won't let me live a good life, I will live a good life on my own to show them!"

"In this world, women who want to gain status and power either rely on their natal family or their husband's family. Now that I can't rely on either, I have to find another way."

"Unfortunately, your young lady is not charming enough and failed to be accepted into the palace by the emperor. She cannot become the imperial concubine."

"No, the young lady is so beautiful and talented, but the official is blind and cowardly and refuses to promise..." The clerk was so angry that he could not refute. Qin Wanrong hurriedly stopped him sternly: "Clerk! Some things should be kept in mind and must not be said out loud, do you understand?"

Seeing Qin Wanrong's serious expression, the clerk immediately fell silent. She also knew that if outsiders heard what she said about the official, it would be a serious crime.

Nanny Xing now connected all the stories. Although she thought so in her heart, she did not dare to agree when she thought that it was the emperor.

"Miss, why don't we go and ask the Marquis to let us go back to the Marquis of Dongchang Mansion?" After all, Qin Wanrong and Marquis Qin are blood siblings. If Qin Wanrong really goes and asks, Marquis Qin will definitely not really stop her from going back.

Qin Wanrong also knew this, but she just didn't want to do it. Whether it was because of Xiao Qin's resentment or her own considerations, returning to Dongchang Marquis' Mansion would be harmful to Qin Wanrong's future life in the harem.

Yes, Qin Wanrong still felt that she could enter the harem, not the harem of Zhao Zongshi, but the harem of Zhao Zhen.

As early as after officially meeting the emperor, Qin Wanrong spent her reputation points to exchange for Acacia Yin in the reputation system.

Unlike the uncertainty of soul attraction, the effect of lovesickness attraction is much more clear.

Acacia, also known as Acacia Gu, is a branch of love Gu. The sub-Gu was planted by Qin Wanrong on Guan Jia and Liang Duzhi, and the mother Gu was naturally on Qin Wanrong. The person infected with the Gu must see the mother Gu once every month, and will miss her very much if he does not see her.

The feeling of missing the one who has been away from the other person will grow stronger as time goes by, until the person who has been poisoned by the poison loses his appetite and dies of lovesickness. This insect got its name from the term "lovesickness".

Originally, Qin Wanrong didn't want to do this, but Zhao Zhen was too slow. Qin Wanrong didn't like to coax people, let alone Zhao Zhen who didn't give any benefits after coaxing for a long time. Although her mental power clearly sensed Zhao Zhen's love for her, Qin Wanrong never trusted men, let alone Zhao Zhen, who had three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines.

In order to protect your own position, why not use any means you can?

It has been less than a month since I last saw you, and your thoughts are not deep enough. After a while, I will definitely let you feel what it means to miss you deeply. When that time comes, I don't need to do anything. In order to ease his longing, he will definitely order me to enter the palace.

After planning for a long time to come into this world, Qin Wanrong deeply felt the coldness of ancient men's feelings towards women. The men in Qing palace dramas were not as cold-hearted as the men in "Knowing".

Was it true that the emperor was unsure of Qin Wanrong's feelings before he issued the decree? Not necessarily. After all, he was the emperor. As long as he issued the decree, could Qin Wanrong still resist?

It was obviously because he didn't want his reputation to be damaged. After all, Qin Wanrong went to Hanshan Temple to observe mourning. He couldn't tell the world that he had concealed his identity and the story of his relationship with Qin Wanrong, so he could only summon people into the palace under other names.

But no matter how the emperor whitewashed this matter, it would still be seen as a case of the emperor's love of beauty. The Dongchang Marquisate behind Qin Wanrong was not powerful, unlike the Cao family behind Empress Cao, which the emperor dared not treat casually. The emperor naturally treated her however he wanted.

Qin Wanrong guessed that the emperor even thought about asking her to stay outside the palace as his concubine, and maybe she would have the chance to enter the palace after she became pregnant. Qin Wanrong saw through the emperor's despicable plan, and although she did not expose it, she was disgusted.

Let the emperor have a good taste of longing. No matter how much she persuaded herself, she couldn't fall in love with an ancient man. Qin Wanrong could only retreat quickly when she couldn't act anymore, and come back to continue acting after she adjusted her mentality.

Zhao Zongshi had not come to Yuzhou yet. Qin Wanrong realized that she had arrived too early but she did not care. She took the clerk, Nanny Xing, and the others to find the Donglin Temple, the largest temple in Yuzhou, and started to stay the night there. During the process, she would discuss Buddhism with the monks in the temple from time to time. As word of mouth spread among the pilgrims in Yuzhou, the rumor that a fairy had come to the Donglin Temple had already spread before Qin Wanrong knew about it.

As soon as Qin Wanrong arrived in Yuzhou, the emperor's men caught up with her. However, the emperor did not have the courage to issue a mandatory decree. He could only ask those people to keep an eye on Qin Wanrong's whereabouts and take action to stop her from becoming a nun at the critical moment.
