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

I hate that I can't find where Li hid his money as easily as in those novels, or directly put everything into the space.

Qin Wanrong, who only had a small space of one cubic meter, could only sneak to the approximate location to search, but it was not easy to find the right time. She could only wait until the banquet started tomorrow and sneak over when there was a shortage of people in the backyard.

By the time Li found out something was wrong, he would have already gotten away. There were so many people at the banquet, and Li would never suspect him.

There was nothing special about the place where Li hid the money. By analyzing Mother Wang's whereabouts, Qin Wanrong easily determined the location as the small study next to the main house in the backyard of Li's yard. Now that Qin Wanrong's reputation value had risen, she used 3000 reputation points to exchange for a clone pill, which was similar to the clone pill rewarded by the time learning system in "The Heirs". As long as you take it, you can get a clone, and the clone can exist for 3 hours. However, once the clone is hit by a fatal blow, it will disappear even before 3 hours.

Three hours was more than enough for Qin Wanrong. Everything went as Qin Wanrong had imagined at the Dongchang Marquis's Mansion. The next morning, Qin Wanrong took the clone pill and left the clone to wait for Li to come. She painted her face black, changed into a maid's clothes, and sneaked into the main courtyard where Li was before dawn when there were no people around.

I don't know if it's because the day when Qin Wanrong will enter the palace is approaching, the emperor's longing for Qin Wanrong is becoming more and more profound. From the beginning, he knew that Qin Wanrong was angry and disappointed when she rejected the jade hairpin, then he felt regretful and reluctant to leave Beijing to practice, and then he felt fear and regret when Qin Wanrong was almost killed. The emperor always felt that although he hadn't seen Qin Wanrong for almost a year, every frown and smile of Qin Wanrong in his memory was always unforgettable to him.

Now that Qin Wanrong has returned, the emperor is a little "homesick". He doesn't know how Qin Wanrong feels after receiving the imperial edict, and is afraid that she will be angry when she knows that she is Zhao's brother after entering the palace. After learning that the Dongchang Marquis's Mansion is going to hold a banquet for Qin Wanrong, the emperor specially sent Liang Duzhi to represent him, in order to let Qin Wanrong know her identity in advance so that she can be prepared after entering the palace, and also to support Qin Wanrong.

Liang Duzhi was very excited when he received the task assigned by the government. He suppressed his joy and pretended to be calm and agreed, not daring to let the government notice anything wrong.

As early as the day Qin Wanrong returned to Beijing, Liang Duzhi wanted to see this "two-faced" fairy with his own eyes. He really missed the fairy. Since she left, the people he saw and heard were all "mortals" dominated by desires, and none of them was as special as her.

After all, how can a fairy not be so special when she can smash someone's head without changing her expression? Liang Duzhi was born in a scholar's family before entering the palace. When he was young, he had read the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. However, he offended a nobleman one day, and his family was destroyed. He was the only one who escaped.

Liang Duzhi, who had managed to survive, originally wanted to study hard and make a name for himself to avenge his family. However, he did not expect that just because he believed in the "poor man", he was abducted and sold into the palace to become a eunuch.

The nobleman that the Liang family had offended was a greedy, ugly, evil businessman, and those nobles who should have given the Liang family justice accepted bribes from the evil businessman, not only did they not uphold justice, but they also colluded with him. These people did these ugly things for their own desires.

As for the "poor man", who was dressed simply and had a miserable look on his face, Liang Duzhi originally thought that such poor people were only ugly on the outside, but their hearts would never be as ugly as those nobles. However, the incident taught Liang Duzhi another lesson.

From then on, Liang Duzhi believed that all people in the world were ugly as long as they had desires, including himself, the concubines in the harem, and the ministers and scholars outside.

Only the fairy that he saw in the mountains that year was different. Until now, Liang Duzhi still didn't think Qin Wanrong had any desires. He had to say that he was really perceptive. As the reincarnation of Xiao Qin, Qin Wanrong had some things that she had to obtain in the mission, but for Qin Wanrong herself, there was really no such strong desire.

Those are what Xiao Qin wants, not what the soul-calling bird wants.

Qin Wanrong herself did not notice the difference, but Liang Duzhi, the background board without any words in "Do You Know?", sensed it. I don't know if this has anything to do with the love poison or something?

When Liang Duzhi arrived at the Dongchang Marquis Mansion, the banquet was about to begin and most of the people who were supposed to come had arrived. It must be said that there were quite a few people in the entire Bianjing city who were curious about Qin Wanrong. During the 27 months of her seclusion in Hanshan Temple, Qin Wanrong hardly appeared in public. Those who had seen Qin Wanrong had almost forgotten what she looked like by now.

Soon, Li's people found the clone, who was dressed in a decent outfit. Although not luxurious, it was not without etiquette, which was in line with Qin Wanrong's identity as a cultivator. In other words, she looked like a fairy, cold and aloof.

The real body had already slipped into the small study when Li and the others left. Now the servants outside were busy welcoming guests. Li only left a few young servants to guard the yard and left.

It was not difficult for Qin Wanrong to sneak in and out, but the difficult part was finding the place where the money was hidden. No matter how small the study was, it was still a study, and there were many and various things in it. Qin Wanrong had no experience in this area, so she could only use the clumsy method to search through it bit by bit.

When the clone appeared, everyone at the banquet was forced to stay where they were. The scene suddenly became quiet, and no one was willing to take their eyes off the clone.

Such a fairy-like beauty, truly a fairy-like beauty that no one can match!

Everyone thought they had seen a fairy, until Liang Duzhi came in with the official's order and interrupted everyone's amazement. Liang Duzhi walked through the crowd and came to the clone. He stared at the fairy greedily until he was sure that Qin Wanrong was in front of him. Liang Duzhi realized how much he missed her.

Little fairy, you are finally back.

"I came here on orders from the emperor to visit Madam Rongguo, and to discuss the arrangements for entering the palace with the Marquis's mansion."

Little fairy, you still look so pure.

"Where are the Duke of Dongchang and his wife?"

......

There were no problems at the banquet and the main part was also going smoothly. Qin Wanrong found a secret compartment under the base of the flower pot in the study. After opening it, she found the money that Li had hidden.

Qin Wanrong put all the money into the space without hesitation, not caring whether it had any marks or not. She would not leave any for Li if she could not spend it.

Everything went just as smoothly when she left. Qin Wanrong was in a very happy mood. However, she did not expect that her joy would turn into sorrow. When she crossed the archway in the backyard and was about to return to her yard through the side door, she accidentally bumped into someone.

"Liang Duzhi!!! Why is he here?!"
