"Okay, I got it!"
Gu Qingcheng didn't rush to communicate with the system, but first sent the maid who came to deliver the message: "Go back and tell my mother, I'll be there soon!"
"Yes! Sanniang! You, you must hurry!"
The maid ran out of breath and stuttered when she spoke.
She knew that although Sanniang was young, she was very reliable.
Since I have promised, I will do it.
So the maid didn't delay and ran out again without even catching her breath.
Gu Qingcheng stood up and said to the two maids behind her in a deep voice, "Put these away."
The two maids bowed and agreed.
One of them came up to collect the bamboo slips, pens and ink, etc., while the other followed behind Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Qingcheng didn't care. Her experiences in her previous life had already enabled her to develop the ability to remain calm even when faced with a huge crisis.
Even if there is someone following her, she can still communicate with that system without making any noise.
[…So, my mission is to enter the worlds created by these storybooks and help those who make wishes fulfill their long-cherished wishes?]
System: “Yes! You can understand it that way.” Actually, it’s an online article.
However, Gu Qingcheng was an ancient person, and she had no idea what online literature was.
How do I enter? Disappear directly? Or use a trance-like method? It's like Duke Zhuang dreaming of a butterfly.
System: “Oh yes! That’s also the way it can be understood!” It must be soul travel.
There was some excitement deep in the system kernel. The executor he had chosen this time was very smart.
Even if he was an ancient person, even if he was limited by the times, he could still extract useful information from its simple narration and make a reasonable understanding of it.
The system finally understood what it meant to draw inferences from one example and apply it to other similar situations through Gu Qingcheng.
If the executor is smart enough, it will be easier for him to succeed in the task.
Points can be easily earned.
As a system, it can achieve corresponding results.
Well, in their system world, they also pay attention to KPI, and are very inward-looking.
[Storybook, uh, I mean, can I choose the mission world?]
"No! They are all randomly selected."
The system answered in a mechanical voice, worried that its words were too blunt and would scare away the executor.
It quickly added, "But don't worry, we will match the tasks according to the level of the executor."
For example, if I'm a newbie, the tasks I receive are relatively simple. As I do more and become more experienced, the tasks will become increasingly difficult.
The system nodded repeatedly: "That's right! That's right!"
[There are rewards for successful missions. Can it make me more beautiful? ]
The system was slightly excited, thinking that the executor was indeed attracted. "Yes! Points can be exchanged for attribute values. As your appearance value increases, you will naturally become more beautiful."
"Also, points can be redeemed for items in the system mall. Whitening pills, hair blackening pills, beauty cream, body cream... You can find anything you can't think of in the mall."
The system is desperately advocating.
【The mission failed? 】
As a winner in life who has shared weal and woe with the emperor but has not been deserted by him, Gu Qingcheng is smart and clear-headed.
She always thinks things through and won't be easily fooled.
"..." The system paused for a few seconds before cautiously saying, "There will be punishment. But don't worry, I'm a legitimate system, not some feral system that shocks or kills people at will."
"If you fail the first mission, you will be unbound immediately."
"If you fail in the future, 1 point will be deducted."
Gu Qingcheng walked slowly through the courtyard, her brain divided into two parts——
One part was running frantically, while the other part was talking to the system with its mind.
[1 point will be deducted if I fail? What about completing the task? How much is the reward?]
The system gave a straightforward answer: "1 o'clock!"
Gu Qingcheng nodded secretly. The reward and punishment were both 1 point, which was fair.
"My dear, our 'Wish-Rate' system is really great. After you join it, not only will you become more beautiful, but you will also be able to experience a colorful life."
Seeing that Gu Qingcheng was silent, the system mistakenly thought that she was still hesitating, so it continued to promote it vigorously.
[Life experiences and so on don't matter. I just want to be beautiful!]
Gu Qingcheng herself didn't realize that she had always cared about her appearance.
She came from a prominent family. Her father was from a noble family and her mother was a princess of the imperial dynasty.
The couple was one handsome and the other beautiful, and they loved each other very much. They had no concubines and no illegitimate children.
Gu Qingcheng's brothers and sisters are also talented and beautiful.
Only she was like a crow among a group of phoenixes.
His hair is sparse and yellow, his skin is dark, and his facial features clearly bear some resemblance to his parents, but there is only one word that describes him - ugly!
Because she is ugly, she has been pointed at since she was a child.
Because she was ugly, she had to study harder and enrich herself with knowledge and talent.
Because she was ugly, after she helped her husband ascend the throne, and her husband had three thousand beauties, outsiders did not think that her husband was promiscuous, but instead felt that he was "wronged".
Because of her ugliness... she had to bear too much and even lost the rights that a woman should have.
Why?
Are you unworthy of love just because you are ugly?
Should I die?
If it were in her previous life, Gu Qingcheng would not be so "willful".
But, she was reborn, and with a few extra decades, a different way of living didn't seem so bad.
"Gu Qingcheng, if you are willing to bind yourself to me, I promise to give you a 'privilege'~~"
