Lou Kui was so angry that she tore up all the prescriptions she had written.
She didn't want to be arrested as a spy; she wanted to be an empress or queen.
It's such a pity that so many good ways to make money are gone.
"Could it be that there were time travelers who saw these things being made?"
Otherwise, how could he be so knowledgeable about classical poetry and various prescriptions?
System: "This was not detected. Perhaps it existed before."
Lou Kui's mind raced. "System, does the exchange shop have manufacturing methods for gunpowder and cannons?"
System: "Of course."
Lou Kui's eyes lit up. "Then I want to redeem it."
System: "The gunpowder recipe requires 8,000 favor points to exchange, and the cannon requires 30,000 favor points. Let me remind you, host, you only have a little over 3,000 favor points left."
Lou Kui: "..." I can't afford it.
She asked, "Why is it so expensive?"
System: "This is something that can change the course of the world today, of course it's expensive."
Lou Kui thought about it and realized it made sense.
"Then I'll have to work hard to earn favor points to exchange for them."
System: "Let me remind you again, the favorability of the people you're trying to win over is dropping rapidly. To earn more favorability, you need to get back to the original level before you can get any rewards."
"After all, you've already received rewards for the times you've spent money on this."
Only after the system mentioned this did Lou Kui realize that she hadn't gained any favorability points recently, and the favorability points of the person she was trying to win over were still dropping.
It seems that her bad luck started after Min Qingyou came back.
That woman was indeed her nemesis. What's so great about a woman of good fortune? She'll take away all of her luck one day.
She couldn't help but ask, "How much has the Fourth Prince's favorability towards me decreased?"
System: "Negative thirty".
Lou Kui was startled. "What? From 80% favorability to -30%? Did you calculate it wrong?"
System: "There's absolutely no mistake."
Lou Kui couldn't help but curse, "That bastard dog of a man, after getting me, his favorability rating actually dropped to negative thirty. He's a real scoundrel."
How much favorability does Fei Yu have left?
System: "Fifty left."
Lou Kui had a headache. "Twenty yuan has been lost. These bastards are really scum."
Now that the formula is gone, how can she increase Fei Yu's favorability?
The system is useless; it can't offer any advice, so she has to rely on herself.
She thought about it carefully, and if all else failed, she would have to reveal that she was a woman.
Then he and Fei Yu got together and made love.
Once that relationship is established, and she becomes his woman, it should be easier to increase her favorability.
Qingyou summoned two bodyguards and instructed them to each carry out a task.
The next day, the fourth prince set off for the frontier.
He was, after all, the emperor's son, so a guard was sent to escort him.
While resting at a teahouse on the road, someone accidentally bumped into the fourth prince.
Not only did they steal the purse containing the silver notes from his body, but they also took the stack of papers from his arms.
The fourth prince had the man beaten before releasing him.
After he discovered that his belongings were missing, the person who hit him could no longer be found.
He didn't think much of it and assumed the other person was stealing his purse, and probably took the stack of papers as banknotes.
He ordered his guards to look for the person, but the person seemed to have vanished.
The fourth prince felt it was very unlucky, but there was nothing he could do but accept it.
He figured that since Lou Kui was now the heir apparent, even if someone saw the drawings on those papers, they probably wouldn't associate them with her.
Then we continued our journey.
At the same time, the Duke of Zhenguo sent a message to the people on the frontier, instructing the generals there to give the fourth prince a good "training".
His daughter is not someone to be trifled with.
Lou Kui's reputation was ruined in the literary circles of the capital, and even the circles of princes, nobles, and aristocratic families rejected her.
Lou Kui could only endure it.
He also exchanged a set of talisman-drawing tools with the system, intending to practice how to draw them and then go out and pretend to be a charlatan.
The talisman she drew was obviously ineffective; it was just a cover. She could simply exchange it for an effective one from the system later.
Since plagiarism couldn't infiltrate the upper echelons and business methods were ineffective, she resorted to charlatanism.
With the system providing cheats anyway, she'll soon become a famous master in the capital.
Qingyou is also practicing drawing talismans.
However, unlike Lou Kui who cheated using the system, she relied entirely on the system's knowledge base and learning from her master.
However, she discovered that every time she drew a talisman, using her mental energy on the brush resulted in a very strong enhancement to the drawing.
In the original story, Lou Kui exchanged a bad luck charm with the system, then gave it to her second cousin, who secretly dissolved it in water for her father to drink.
After that, his father went to the frontier and had a series of misfortunes, which is why he was ambushed and killed by the enemy leader.
This also prevented the emperor and others from discovering the problem.
Lou Kui also used many other talismans with different effects to win over some useful people in the aristocratic circles of the capital.
Qingyou then realized that drawing talismans could have these effects, so she became very interested.
She had already been taught by her master at Qinan Mountain.
This time, Lou Kui will naturally not pretend to be a master to win people over.
Besides drawing talismans at home, Qingyou also often goes out shopping or traveling with Feichen.
She also attended several banquets. Because of the literary gatherings and her status as the Crown Princess, both women and men treated her with great courtesy.
Qingyou isn't the type to bully others; as long as you don't provoke her, she won't make things difficult for anyone.
So everyone found that Princess Ling had a very good personality and was very knowledgeable. No matter what was being said, she could always respond and even knew a lot about it.
