Chapter 1 Yao Jinling
After finishing a tiring and mechanical day as a social animal, Xu Zhujin returned to her small rental house like a zombie, carrying the inexpensive and high-quality fried goods she had recently found.
"Ah..." The woman collapsed on the lazy sofa and stretched hard. The fried food in her hands had already cooled down. There was a microwave oven two steps away from her right, but Xu Zhujin was unwilling to move even two steps.
Finally, after who knows if it was five or ten minutes, the person on the sofa suddenly shouted encouragement to himself: "One, two, three, up—"
Five minutes later, she was contentedly opening "Someone's Scheme," clutching a steaming plate of fried food. Her familiar Cantonese accent swayed her, and she couldn't help but hum along to the off-key opening theme song from "To the North Pole."
Xu Zhujin picked up a piece of bean curd and ate her fifteen-yuan dinner with relish while watching the palace fighting drama she had watched dozens of times.
"As expected, classics never go out of style! It's just that the heroine's treatment of everyone equally and her indiscriminate love are a little annoying..."
Xu Zhujin didn't actually dislike this kind of truly good person, she just felt that she was more like a saint without desires, a bodhisattva in a temple. Xu Zhujin sincerely admired them, but as an ordinary person, she still preferred the flesh-and-blood Jin Ling.
Yao Jinling is like a real person around Xu Zhujin. She sometimes speaks in an unpleasant way, does things for a utilitarian purpose, and has an extreme temperament, but she is also sincere to her good sisters, always ambitious and full of vitality, and works hard and never gives up.
Of course, she did make irreparable mistakes after she completely turned evil and fell into madness. So the end she ended up in was her own fault.
"But I'm still so unwilling. If Jin Ling had focused on her career and not touched the bottom line of the Three Goods, maybe they could have achieved the perfection they wanted..."
Seeing Jin Ling so mad she couldn't even tell who she was, Xu Zhujin couldn't help but feel sorry for her. "After such bad luck for so long, she finally got some good luck. I really wanted to see Jin Ling receive the special favor and be on par with the empress..."
"Do you also think this female supporting role has the potential to become the queen?"
"Nonsense! In this emperor's entire harem, there's one virtuous mistress who's in love with someone, and one virtuous concubine who's unruly and headstrong in the early stages and weak and gentle in the later stages. Besides Jin Ling...wait, who are you?!"
Xu Zhujin suddenly reacted and looked at the silver ball of light that appeared silently in front of her. She felt that the cognition she had formed over the past twenty years was constantly being washed away by the scene before her.
The silver ball of light continued to mutter to itself: "Host quality scan completed, binding confirmed. Queen training system activated, initial mission world: "Palace O Strategy"; confirmed target of travel: Yao Jinling. Plane world jumping -"
Xu Zhujin cursed profusely, clutching the table in front of her with both hands. The next second, a flash of white light passed, and the world lost a woman without relatives, no grudges, and no one to rely on...
"I'm afraid Mom won't be able to see the flowers in her hometown anymore. Sanhao, Jinling, you must help each other in the future..."
When Xu Zhujin opened her eyes again, she saw a beautiful woman lying on the bed in an antique bedroom, dying. She was holding her and another little girl's hands, holding their little hands together.
She watched the girl run out like the wind to get some magnolia flowers from her hometown for her mother who was lying on the hospital bed.
This scene is so familiar, after all, I just reviewed it today.
Xu Zhujin lowered her head, lest the woman see her shattered expression. Although she loved watching palace dramas, that didn't mean she was willing to live in the treacherous harem of the original owner!
She was just talking nonsense before! She can't do it, she can't do it!
Xu Zhujin felt that her eyes were probably filled with "Save me, save me, save me"...
[Host, please believe in yourself. I've looked it up, and you should be familiar with these worlds.]
[Also, I just downloaded a role-playing patch for the host. Once you start the main storyline, you will receive all of this character's memories and specialties, ensuring that you can play the role smoothly and there will be no ooc.]
A familiar voice sounded in his mind, and Xu Zhujin immediately realized that this was the silver ball of light just now.
Combining her many years of experience in online writing and the so-called "Queen Cultivation System", Xu Zhujin understood that she was forcibly bound to the world of palace fighting dramas, and her task was to play the supporting role and become the queen.
[Yes, I am the Queen Development System N1. But I am not bound by force.] The light group used a cute childish voice pack to talk to Xu Zhujin's brain:
[We carefully screen hosts out of the noble desire to maintain cosmic peace and stabilize the plane of space. If the host shows even a moment of resistance before binding, we will not be able to successfully sign the contract.]
Syndicate N1's voice turned smug at this point: "Actually, host, you're tired of living aimlessly in the world, a life without purpose or meaning..."
Xu Zhujin was silent.
After a while, Liu Sanhao ran over with a white jade flower in his hand and placed it in front of Jiang Caiqiong. Xu Zhujin knew that this woman was at the end of her life and was about to die in front of them.
"Wuah—I'm sorry, Madam, Miyoshi. It was actually me who sneaked into the room that night to see Phoenix Asahi."
"When I was holding the candlestick, the candle dripped onto it. I clearly wiped it clean, but who knew there was still red wax left in the gap... It's all my fault. I harmed my wife..."
Xu Zhujin suddenly burst into tears and confessed to the heroine and her mother what her original self had done.
"Why did the host tell them? We've just started our mission, and confronting the heroine now won't do us any good."
Xu Zhujin rolled her eyes at this artificial idiot in her mind. It turned out that even high technology could not understand human hearts.
[Who said I was going against the heroine? Just wait and see, the mother and daughter won't blame me.]
The system wanted to ask again, but Xu Zhujin had already blocked it and focused on dealing with the current situation.
Liu Sanhao was still a child at the time, and when he suddenly heard that his mother's punishment was related to his best sister Jin Ling, he was stunned for a moment. However, Jiang Caiqiong reacted immediately. She forced herself to sit up and hold the two children in her arms.
"Jin Ling, I don't blame you. The harem is full of twists and turns. Ultimately, it's all because I wasn't careful enough. I'm glad you're brave enough to admit your mistakes."
Jiang Caiqiong's pale face suddenly regained its luster. Xu Zhujin knew that this was her last burst of vitality and she was probably going to die soon.
"Sanhao, don't blame Jinling. You two should love each other and support each other in the future. Do you remember what your parents taught you?"
"Woo woo... Remember the Three Good Things: Speak kindly, do good deeds, and have good intentions. Mom, don't worry. Jinling and I will definitely trust each other and be the best sisters in the future!"
Xu Zhujin looked at the mother and daughter with a complicated expression. She knew that with Liu Sanhao's kindness, he would continue to treat her as his most trusted friend in the future, even if she had accidentally killed her mother.
Jiang Caiqiong finally died in the singing of her daughter, and her ashes were poured into the dry well.
Since then, Xu Zhujin has almost always been sticking to the heroine. On the one hand, the heroine has been depressed all day long because of the death of her mother, and she is worried about leaving her alone;
On the other hand, she knew that the next inconspicuous plot could help her get in touch with the future emperor, the current King of Light.
If she wants to establish a childhood friendship with the male protagonist, this is the best opportunity. She may even be able to gain the love and gratitude of Concubine Zheng in advance.
