A little bit of plot was added in the transition chapter of Chapter 60.
It just adds some palace fighting props to the system mall.
For example, disfigurement powder, doll of doom, nightmare water, these palace fighting weapons serve as the heroine's golden fingers.

Xu Lingyi pretended to be submissive. She lowered her head and her eyes turned slightly red. Then she gently wiped away the fake tears from the corners of her eyes, but her eyes were still hazy.
She said delicately, "Thank you for your guidance, mother. I will return home as soon as possible."
Xu Lingyi appeared to be graceful, gentle and submissive, but secretly she put disfigurement powder and nightmare water in her teacup.
She knew that the old woman loved drinking tea.
Sure enough, Mother Shen picked up the teacup, looked carefully at the color of the tea in the cup, and then tasted the tea.
Only she could see the items in the brocade bag, and Mother Shen couldn't tell anything.
When Shen Qinghuai's mother reached her age, appearance was actually no longer important.
But the effect of the disfiguring powder, in addition to destroying a person's appearance, is to cause dense stinging pain on the skin on the face. Although it will not cause death, it is very torturous.
As for nightmare water, Xu Lingyi liked it very much and she bought a lot of it.
If a person has nightmares every day, his mentality will collapse over time.
This old hag had made things difficult for her many times in her previous life, so she didn't deserve a good night's sleep.
Because she wanted to seduce the emperor, she could not touch her for the time being, but she could still make her suffer a little.
The effect of the disfigurement powder will take effect in three days, and by then Mother Shen will not suspect her.
Seeing her foxy appearance, Shen's mother felt even more aggrieved. How could her good son marry such a petty wife?
Mother Shen put down the cup heavily, her face as gloomy as water. She wanted to scold Xu Lingyi, but she couldn't find any excuse for the time being.
“Go down.” Mother Shen said coldly.
After they walked out and returned to their own residence, Yingchun puffed up her face and whispered angrily, "Madam Shen is too contemptuous. What does she think of our master? Their Shen family is superior to the Xu family. Okay, the family status is much higher, but our young lady is not a merchant girl. After all, she is from a legitimate official family. The master is also a sixth-rank official. That old hag! It's too much!"
Xu Lingyi shook her head and scolded softly, she covered Yingchun's mouth.
Xu Lingyi's bright eyes moved slightly, and her red lips opened slightly. "Yingchun, words can cause trouble. Don't say such things again in the future. She is an elder, and we must respect her no matter what. Madam may have some misunderstandings about me, so she treated me like this today. As we spend more time together and I serve her every day, she will naturally understand what kind of person I am and won't treat me like this again."
After saying this, Xu Lingyi felt like she was a peerless white lotus.
The emperor listened silently and changed his mind.
In this master and two servants, it is not the maid who is dumber, but the master who is more naive. She looks like a stunning beauty, but how can she be so silly? Did she buy this pretty face with her brains?
If anyone dared to speak to him like this, he would chop off her head. How could she still serve him humbly?
If you repay evil with kindness, how can you repay kindness?
Fortunately, she is so weak and simple in nature and lives in Shen Qinghuai's mansion.
As far as he knew, Shen Qinghuai had no concubines in his backyard, and he had always kept himself clean.
There were few people in the backyard, so Xu Lingyi was not killed.
As for Shen Qinghuai, the cunning, mean and eccentric mother-in-law, she is indeed not an easy person to deal with, but she should not endanger Xu Lingyi's life.
For her, Shen Qinghuai was a pretty good destination.
The marriage that I had arranged by accident that day would not cause her to trust the wrong person and suffer.
The emperor shook his head quickly.
How Xu Lingyi lives has nothing to do with him. Everyone has their own destiny. They are just strangers.

"Laifu, we have to go back." Xu Lingyi held the emperor in her arms and said softly, "We have to bring Fubao's nest with us this time."
"Miss, but I don't want to go back to the Xu family, nor do I want to go to that Shen family. It would be great if we could live outside on our own."
After Yingchun finished speaking, Yingxia nodded quickly.
Xu Lingyi sighed softly: "There's nothing we can do about it. The Shen family seems to be doing better than the Xu family right now."
When he got outside, the emperor perked up. Even though he was still in pain, he wanted to see if he could hear any news from the palace.
He ran outside yesterday, which was an especially dark day for him.
Fortunately, Xu Lingyi held him in her arms when they went out today.
The journey was safe and sound until we arrived at Xu's house.
"Second sister, why did you come back alone? Isn't your second brother-in-law with you?"
The person who spoke was Xu Lingyi's stepmother's sister, named Xu Lingjiao.
Xu Lingjiao was originally a concubine's daughter, but after her mother was made the legitimate daughter, she also became a legitimate daughter and felt that her status was better than Xu Lingyi.
Not only is Xu Lingyi a jinx to her mother, she also only has a pretty face and is extremely weak in character. It is impossible for such a person to gain independence. She will be killed sooner or later, let alone become the mistress of the house.
A vixen like her will have to be a concubine for the rest of her life.
"It seems that marrying into a wealthy family is useless. If you can't please men, you will be ignored."
Xu Lingjiao gloated over the misfortune. She touched the gold hairpin on her head and laughed openly. "I've heard that my brother-in-law was only in love with his deceased wife. He has been a virgin for her for so many years. Tsk tsk, after my second sister gets married, I'm afraid she will be a widow every day. My brother-in-law hasn't touched you yet, right? What if he doesn't touch you in the future? I remember that if you don't have children for a few years, you will be divorced. What will my second sister do then?"
