"Please understand, Miss."
Xinyi had seen Qin Yanning kill monsters. Although she killed monsters that were imprisoned in the imperial prison and had committed heinous crimes, she was quick and accurate in her actions. Even if the dirty monster blood splashed on her face, she would not blink an eye.
Although she had gained face in front of the Imperial Master, if Qin Yanning killed her now and then found a random excuse to get rid of the matter, the Imperial Master would not care about her life or death, let alone avenge her.
The only one he cares about is the one in Fengyun Palace.
She could try to hide what happened today from Fang Zhijie. If she succeeded, she would live, but if she failed, she would die. But if she angered the eldest lady today, she would die immediately.
She doesn't want to die.
Xinyi's reaction was not unexpected to Qin Yanning. In the original owner's memory, she was a villain who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and flattered the weak.
But there are also advantages to having such a person. For example, now she can easily incite her to rebel.
The reason why the original owner in her previous life was deceived by Fang Zhijie was not because of how clever Fang Zhijie's methods were or how smart the people he placed around her were.

The most convenient way to make these little maids obedient without worrying about them betraying you is to cast a spell.
As a national teacher, it must not be difficult for him to achieve this level.
When Xinyi heard Qin Yanning's words, her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
It wasn't that she wanted to tremble, but she couldn't help but feel scared when she thought about the feeling of being controlled by the national teacher's terrible spell and living a life worse than death.
Qin Yanning saw that she didn't say anything and was not anxious, he just watched quietly.
After a while, Xinyi couldn't stand Qin Yanning's gaze anymore and spoke up.
