If she stopped Hua Changxuan but didn't stay with him, Rong Shang felt it was rather pretentious.
So for now, she's taking it one step at a time.
Or rather, let it be.
At worst, she can seduce one girl and succeed at it.
"Goddess, you're really overthinking it." The system came out to pour cold water on her hopes.
There are two objectives to pursue; if either one fails...
Mission failed.
But...
You can pray that Hua Changxuan might be willing to remain single for you.

Three days later, good news came from the Moon Shadow Palace.
Princess Ning will marry Changxuan, the Prince of Yueyang Palace.
This means that from now on, ordinary people will live a happy and fulfilling life.
When Hua Changge heard the news, it seemed as if it were expected, and he did not show much emotion.
In contrast, he could sense that Rong Shang's mood seemed to have dropped considerably.
Even knowing that she did it for Hua Changxuan's sake, Hua Changge couldn't bear to blame her now.
One afternoon, however, Eunuch Hong suddenly came to inform on her that Consort Li had given a maid poisoned wine in prison.
After the maid's death, rumors immediately spread.
It is said that Consort Li dislikes Consort Yun and is trying to find a way to oppose her.
The death of Xiaodie was her way of intimidating Consort Yun.
Hua Changge was furious. In addition, he had been feeling irritable lately because he noticed that Rong Shang was in a "bad mood".
When Princess Ning was to marry Hua Changxuan, Consort Li was summoned by Hua Changge.
This trip is likely to be fraught with danger for Consort Li.
After all, she had used torture to execute a maid.
And that maid happened to be from Yunhe Palace.
It's not for any particular reason, she just doesn't have the right to do this.

Inside Changge Palace, Consort Li knelt on the ground, weeping and sobbing, repeatedly saying that she was innocent.
It was that maid who spoke rudely first, secretly did things that damaged her image, and kept trying to sow discord between her and Consort Yun. Consort Li was so angry that she gave her poisoned wine.
Listen to what she's saying; she's completely shifting all the blame onto Xiaodie.
After all, there's no way to verify the truth now that the dead are dead.
But no one expected that Rong Chang would make a special trip to Changge Palace after hearing the news.
At that time, she was sitting next to the distinguished man.
His gaze was cold, with a hint of darkness flickering in his eyes.
Consort Li glanced at her, feeling inexplicably guilty.
She never expected things to escalate to this extent.
She saw how stupid Xiaodie was, that she actually exposed herself in front of Consort Yun, causing her to be dealt with so badly by that wicked woman, Consort Yun.
Feeling displeased and furious, he couldn't help but lock her up in jail. Later, Xiaodie, who was imprisoned, was very dissatisfied and kept saying that she would expose all the bad things she had done.
There was one thing that Consort Li was always afraid Hua Changge would find out.
It was about her instigating the palace maid to deliberately spill tea on his extremely treasured portrait.
You should know that if Xiao Die were to expose these things, Consort Li wouldn't be able to expect a good ending.
She felt guilty, which is why she decided to strike first.
Consort Li initially thought that with so many maids in the palace, even if one or two died, no one would notice.
Who would have thought this time...
With her eyes slightly narrowed, Rong Chang looked at her with a half-smile and said, "Consort Li, do you have some kind of leverage over me?"
“You let her steal things from my Yunhe Palace and then complain about me to the Emperor. I’ve already told you all about it, and I won’t hold it against you. But did you really have to poison a palace maid?”
In just a few words, he instantly dug a pit for Consort Li.
