Rong Yiyi and Xie Jingyi both stared at her with wide eyes.
Mrs. Chen chuckled, "They really are two silly girls."
Xie Jingyi was listening intently when she saw that the woman stopped halfway through her sentence. She blushed and awkwardly asked, "Then how can one capture a man's heart?"
Chen glanced at the paper package in her hand and explained, "What's in this paper package is actually called 'Love Lock Incense,' which is used to enhance the pleasure of a couple's intimate moments."
Xie Jingyi's eyes widened, not expecting her to say such a thing, and she immediately blushed, stammering, "This...this..."
Chen sighed and simply said, "As long as this incense is lit in the room, any man or woman who smells it will be aroused and it will add to the romance." She then added, "However, this incense smells similar to the sandalwood incense we usually use in the house, so there's nothing special about it."
Hearing this, Xie Jingyi's heart stirred slightly, but she couldn't stay any longer. Her face flushed, she said, "Auntie, Yiyi, I have to go back first. I'll come see you again tomorrow."
“Okay, go ahead,” Chen said kindly.
Xie Jingyi, whether out of shyness or for some other reason, forgot to return the paper package to Chen.
Watching the people rush away, Chen sat down in her chair again.
Rong Yiyi leaned over and massaged her shoulders. "Mother is really amazing. This trick of using someone else to do her dirty work is so subtle that it leaves no trace."
Madam Chen patted her hand and said, "Any scheme that requires you to do it yourself is not a good scheme. Yiyi, you should learn from this. When you enter the palace in the future, you will inevitably encounter some annoying and despicable women around you."
"Mother, I understand." Rong Yiyi nodded, then, remembering something, asked, "But is that incense really that powerful? Will Rong Qingqing suspect anything?"
Chen said confidently, "She wouldn't be able to tell that this incense isn't an ordinary aphrodisiac. As long as Xie Jingyi is quick enough to light it before Rong Qingqing enters the room, Rong Qingqing will feel weak and want to sleep after just inhaling a little bit."
The more she inhaled the fragrance, the more shameful her dreams would become. If a man were to approach her during these times, she would surely do something irreversible. Now, I only hope that Xie Jingyi isn't too foolish and can make things go smoothly.
Upon hearing this, Rong Yiyi felt relieved. "Mother, don't worry. Given Xie Jingyi's dislike for Rong Qingqing, she will definitely be able to handle things properly."
...
After parting ways with Shangguan Yanran, Rong Qingqing returned to her courtyard for her meal.
After lunch, she went back to her room to rest. Seeing that there was nothing else to do, she told Xiao Tao to go and rest as well.
As soon as she entered the room, she felt weak all over and too sleepy to keep her eyes open.
She felt something was unusual, but her mind suddenly became very muddled, and she couldn't think straight at all. All she wanted to do was lie down on the bed and have a good sleep.
She casually ripped off her outer garment and lay down on the bed.
Xie Jingrun had just stepped outside the courtyard when he encountered Xie Jingyi.
As usual, he completely ignored her.
Xie Jingyi hesitated for a moment, then awkwardly walked over and said, "Um... Rong Qingqing wants you to go to her room." After saying that, she ran away in a flash.
Xie Jingrun paused, then a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
He ignored her advice and went to Rong Qingqing's room.
How could Rong Qingqing possibly contact him? Even if she needed to speak to him, she wouldn't let that idiot Xie Jingyi relay the message.
With so many flaws, Xie Jingyi is just being stupid, does she think everyone else is stupid too?
If she weren't Xie Tianlin's daughter, he wouldn't have tolerated her at all.
