At this time, the system was still in the space with its owner, discussing how to treat Lu Qingyan.
The system, no longer displaying its usual foolishness, was quite shrewd at this moment: "Master, although I acknowledge Lu Qingyan as my master, I still don't think you two should be together."
The dim shadow spoke softly: "It doesn't matter what you think, she's not your wife anyway."
System: "..." That's too much! Are you taking advantage of its single status?!
"Don't stay here. She's in danger, go help her quickly. Now that I'm awake, remember to modify her mission."
The shadow disappeared after it finished speaking, leaving the system muttering, "You've said it so many times already, it's not like I can't remember it."
Lu Qingyan called out to the system repeatedly, backing away step by step: "You, you don't come any closer."
Zhao Hong wiped the drool from his mouth and leered, "My beauty, I advise you not to struggle, or you'll be the one who suffers later. My Zhao family are the local tyrants of Fu'an County, rich and powerful, and not someone a small Chunxi Troupe like yours can afford to offend."
Lu Qingyan pondered to herself, Chunxi Ban must have been the name of a theatrical troupe in ancient times, which meant that the original owner of this body was an actor? The fat man in front of her claimed to be from the Zhao family and said that he was the local tyrant of Fu'an County, so he must be a relative of the local magistrate's clerk.
Lu Qingyan blinked her misty eyes and cried out, "My Chunxi Troupe is just doing odd jobs to make a living, why is Young Master Zhao being so aggressive?"
Zhao Hong took off his outer robe and reached for his belt, grinning wickedly, "Of course I won't make things difficult for this beauty, but who can blame me when Yi Niang is so beautiful, making this young master's heart ache? If you submit to me today, I will surely treat you well and let you eat and drink the finest food, live a life of wealth and glory; if you refuse, I will make the entire Chunxi Troupe lose their heads!" Zhao Hong threatened viciously at the end.
In the blink of an eye, he put on a disgusting smile and approached Lu Qingyan: "My beauty, it's getting late, let's enjoy a night of passion..."
With a thud, Zhao Hong fell to the ground. A pure white kitten licked its paws beside him and walked towards Lu Qingyan.
I don't know how they raised this cat, it looks so round and cute, you can't tell it's fierce at all.
Lu Qingyan excitedly picked up the cat and kissed it: "Tong'er, you're finally here, hurry up and give me the plot."
The system blushed. "Oh dear, this owner is so enthusiastic! I hope my other owner won't beat me up when they find out."
"Master, let me go!" the system protested, struggling to gain a foothold: "The plot is about to begin."
Lu Qingyan tilted her head and accepted the plot: This is a story of an actress who rises to become an imperial concubine.
The original owner, also known as the female protagonist, was named He Yiyi. She was the daughter of He Yishu, the Vice Minister of War. When the late emperor was still alive, He Yishu became a victim in the struggle between the princes and was exterminated by the late emperor.
He Yiyi, still an infant, was secretly taken away by the family's maid and escaped.
The maid, Liuyu, was pretty and had a childhood sweetheart who ran an opera troupe. For the safety of her young master, she went to him and lied that the child was her and the troupe leader's daughter.
Tian Shenhua, the head of the Chunxi Opera Troupe, had long been preparing to propose marriage to Liu Yu, but the Emperor's decree ordering the entire He family to be executed had caused him great anxiety. Although Liu Yu had escaped with her young master, he still happily accepted the marriage proposal, promising that he would never mistreat He Yiyi.
