System: I have checked. Currently, there are only two travelers in this world: you and the heroine.

[What about the ancient book that the mother mentioned? 】

System: Perhaps someone traveled to Daqi many years ago and left it behind? [Since there is a formula, why hasn't anyone made it? ]

System: Maybe it was written down for many years and no one noticed it, but it happened to be seen by Concubine Shu? [Okay.]

Chu Yaoyao no longer wanted to dwell on this matter.

The system breathed a sigh of relief; it could no longer program.

Why? They want it to fill the hole they dug?

【I want to draw a lottery. 】

The arrival of the heroine gave Chu Yaoyao a sense of crisis. To speed up the counterattack, too many things were needed.

The colorful turntable spins rapidly...

Chu Yaoyao stared at it closely. Drawings, drawings...

[System, what's wrong with you? You're worse than before after the upgrade. Not only has it been empty six times, but the remaining items are either tissues or snacks. Is this human work?]

System: Aren’t there three detoxification pills? It’s not over yet.

System: Congratulations to the host for obtaining a special item: poison alarm. You can choose any of the following forms: a ring, b jade pendant, c bracelet.

【Choose a, it will turn into a ring. 】

With a thought, a gold ring inlaid with ruby ​​fell into Chu Yaoyao's hand.

Once you put it on, the ring, which was originally several sizes too large, automatically shrinks to the right size.

Just as she was about to continue drawing the lottery, Chu Yaoyao’s eyes widened when she saw the remaining points.

【Why are the points so much less! 】

System: I forgot to inform the host. After upgrading, each turn of the big wheel costs two points.

【Why didn't you say so earlier? 】

System: ...So you still want to smoke?

Chu Yaoyao lay down with the quilt covering her.

What are you smoking? Just go to sleep! ...

In the middle of the night, Chu Yaoyao, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by the system.

【You'd better have something important to do. 】

System: There is a big news about Cui'er.

Chu Yaoyao got up quickly and said, "How do you say that?"

System: It is a dark and windy day, and there is no one on this deserted road...

【Let’s get to the point! 】

System: Cui'er is having a secret meeting with someone, and the other person is a eunuch.

In the darkness, Chu Yaoyao's big eyes became bright.

[Is this the kind of private meeting I was thinking of? ]

System: You’ve already pulled my hand! And you’re still calling that guy brother…

【So exciting! 】

Chu Yaoyao quickly jumped out of bed, put on her clothes, and tiptoed out.

System: Host, what are you going to do? Chu Yaoyao pretended to be serious.

[Tsui Er is a key surveillance target. She stayed up late at night and ran out to steal...]

[Well, he ran out to meet someone, there must be a conspiracy, I must go to the scene to investigate. ]

System: Oh.

Where is it?

System: Next to the big tree in the southwest corner.

Chu Yaoyao tiptoed to the door and just as she opened it a crack, Chunshi appeared again.

"Are you hungry again, little princess?"

Chu Yaoyao quickly gave her a gesture to keep quiet and waved for her to follow.

Chu Yaoyao walked with her back bent for a while, then turned around and motioned Chunshi to bend down as well.

Chunshi had no choice but to do as she was told, feeling helpless as she looked at the little kid in front of her.

There are corridors all around here, and there are bushes half a person's height. Is there a possibility...

Even if the little princess stood up and jumped a few times, no one would notice? The two came to the southwest corner of Qionghua Palace, but no one noticed that there was someone behind them...

"Brother Xiaoluzi~Thank you, it's all thanks to you that I can enter this Qionghua Palace."

When Chunshi heard the voice, her eyes widened. Isn’t this Cui'er who just arrived?

Meeting with a eunuch in the middle of the night is really shameless! It's okay for her to be immoral, but she can't bring shame to Qionghua Palace and the queen!

Thinking of this, Chunshi rolled up her sleeves and was about to rush out.

Chu Yaoyao grabbed her and watched her shaking her head wildly.

[I haven't finished eating the melon yet, why are you going out? ]

Over there, Xiao Luzi also spoke up, "I discovered early on that the maid was not honest, so I brought her here specially."

Cui Er said with regret: "It's a pity that the sister has been implicated."

"You are kind-hearted." Xiao Luzi snorted coldly and said disdainfully:

"She's a dishonest person who wants to climb up the tree and become a phoenix? It's ridiculous. She's going to die sooner or later anyway, so she might as well use her to pave the way for you."

Cui Er was touched and said: "Eunuch Lu, you are still so kind to me~"

Xiao Luzi held her hand and said, "For you, even if I have to be beaten with fifty sticks, it's worth it!"

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao suddenly realized.

[I was saying it, how could someone who could serve my cheap father be so careless as to select two problematic palace maids in a row? It turns out he did it on purpose.]

"But didn't you want to go to Luhua Palace before? Why did you change your mind?"

Cui'er's voice was a little unnatural. "Before, I wanted to work for Li Guipin, but I didn't expect..."

Hearing this, Xiao Luzi sighed, "In this palace, nothing can be said for sure, but Qionghua Palace is very good, the Concubine Shu is favored, and she treats the servants well."

"yes."

Xiao Luzi seemed to want to get closer, but Cui'er pushed him away, "It's getting late, you should go back quickly before anyone finds you."

Xiao Luzi left reluctantly.

[I didn't expect Cui Er to be so loyal to Concubine Zhang that she even seduced the eunuch for her! ]

[Tsk tsk, it seems that no matter what kind of man he is, he can't resist a beautiful woman. 】

I thought this was the end of the melon.

Chu Yaoyao still felt a little unsatisfied.

[This melon, which starts off well but ends badly, is really not tasty. ]

Unexpectedly, Cui'er did not leave, but continued to wait there.

Suddenly, a cloaked figure appeared.

"Why did you come here in person?"

Chu Yaoyao poked her head out slightly, [Who is it? ]

"How about it?"

[From the sound of this voice... it's a woman's. Could it be... Concubine Zhang?]

"Chun Shi has been staring at this servant, so this servant has no chance to get to Concubine Shu."

"I heard everything that happened just now. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard for this servant. If you hadn't given me the medicine, I might have been beaten to death by Concubine Zhang."

Chu Yaoyao widened her eyes slightly.

[It’s not Concubine Zhang! ]

Cui Er knelt down and said, "As long as you say one word, Cui Er will die for you!"

The mysterious woman helped her up and asked, "What did Lady Zhang ask you to do?"

"Mrs. Zhang asked me to wait for an opportunity to poison Concubine Shu and her daughter."

The man nodded and said, "Just do as you are told. It's best to do it when the emperor is here too."

After hearing this, Chunshi looked at Cui'er with gritted teeth, her eyes almost spitting fire.

Such a black-hearted slave actually wanted to harm others! She must report it to the queen! She was about to go find someone, but someone patted her on the shoulder and forced her to squat again.

Chu Yaoyao squatted on the spot and sighed.

[I can't believe that Cui Er, a little palace maid, is actually a double agent! ]

[Is this... a palace version of Mission Impossible?]
