Quick Wear: She Whose Negative System Is Broken

Chapter 56 Ancient Time Travel · Entering the Palace

Sure enough, there were several letters from Li Qing'er at the waiter's place at Zhehua Tower, and the words between the lines showed concern for her injuries.

Fang Zhien already knew her identity, so there was no point in hiding it from Li Qing'er.

Rather than letting Fang Zhien find out about her relationship with Li Qing'er and slander and frame her, it would be better for her to confess first.

He wrote a letter and asked the unfamiliar servant to go directly to the gate of the Fang Mansion to find Li Qing'er's personal maid.

The content of the letter was written by Yu Tang in a cryptic way, and others who read it would just think that some lady invited Li Qing'er to have tea.

On the afternoon of the day she received the letter, Li Qing'er went to the door in disguise.

The moment she saw Yu Tang, tears welled up in her eyes. She pulled Yu Tang's hand and called out to her sincerely, "Sister, you have lost a lot of weight."

"Is your wound healed? Is there anything else that's uncomfortable?"

Grabbing Li Qing'er's hands that were about to reach into her clothes, Yu Tang smiled back and pulled her to sit beside him.

"It's okay. Everything is fine."

From the current perspective, Li Qing'er is an emotional person who treats others sincerely, kindly and simply.

Except that he is sometimes too enthusiastic, which makes Yu Tang a little uncomfortable.

Yu Tang didn't know how much harm his confession would cause to Li Qing'er.

She only knew that it was less hurtful than learning the truth from Fang Zhien's mouth.

"Actually, I came here today because I have something to tell you."

Yu Tang was not a person who would drag his feet. Facing Li Qing'er's puzzled gaze, she said, "You should know that Fang Zhien had a divorced wife before, and that was me."

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, shocking Li Qing'er so much that she couldn't react for a long time.

"W-what?" Her voice trembled and her tone was full of disbelief.

Yu Tang patiently gave her time to respond and briefly told the story of Yu Songhua and Fang Zhien.

Li Qing'er was dazed by what she heard. Although they had been married for so long, she had already discovered her husband's hypocritical nature.

But facing the shameless and cruel things he had done, with the victim right in front of her, she was overwhelmed by the overwhelming guilt.

"I'm sorry, it's me..."

Tears rolled down her cheeks. At that time, her father asked her to choose a husband from a group of young scholars, and she picked a handsome one.

Who would have thought that it would force someone to abandon his wife and lead to such a big mistake.

"Nothing to do with you."

Yu Tang took out a handkerchief that he had prepared long ago from his arms, lifted up Li Qing'er's face and wiped it.

"If it's not you, there will be someone else. He is the kind of person who is ambitious and seeks favor from the powerful."

"Sister Tang." Li Qing'er held her other hand and closed her eyes to hold back the surging tears.

"Stop crying. You're crying like a harlequin cat."

Yu Tang touched her red face with amusement. Li Qing'er sobbed and looked at the gentle Yu Tang in front of her with tears in her eyes.

"Sister Tang, what should I do?" Li Qing'er asked in a daze.

She threw an almost unsolvable problem to Li Qing'er, and Yu Tang realized this very clearly.

"Don't worry, just live your life peacefully. No matter what happens, it has nothing to do with you."

After hesitating for a long time, she could only make such a promise.

For women in this era, husband and wife are one body, rising and falling together.

Even if Li Qing'er wanted to divorce Fang Zhien, it would not be something that could be done in a short time.

The Li family is deeply involved with Fang Zhien, and Li Boshan will not agree. Can she really keep her promise now?

Yu Tang asked about the news about Ji Qiyu in the palace, but Li Qing'er was not very clear.

Li Boshan never liked to talk about state affairs or matters related to the palace and the royal family at home, and Fang Zhien held a low position in the Hanlin Academy and was not exposed to much of the palace affairs.

After seeing Li Qing'er off, Yu Tang sat back in his previous seat with a lot on his mind. He felt inexplicably heavy, and even his almost healed wounds began to ache slightly.

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but the atmosphere in Beijing seemed different from the past. She always felt like a storm was about to come.

But there was still no news about Ji Qiyu, and Yu Tang couldn't help feeling anxious.

"System, what will happen if I die before Fangdu grows up?"

"If the mission fails, the host will be punished to a certain extent."

"What does punishment mean?" Yu Tang asked fearfully. I hope it's not some kind of hell where life is worse than death.

"According to the host's degree of completion of the task, personal attitude, and specific analysis of the specific situation, corresponding points will be deducted, and there will be a small training for decisive errors that occur during the task. "

"So, if I fail the mission in this world, all my efforts in the last world will be in vain, right?"

She had only been through two worlds, one with a C score of 600 and one with a B score of 800, for a total of 1,400 points.

"What if I fail several world missions in a row and all my points are deducted?"

"The host should go back to where he came from."

She was born to die, so she might as well die.

"Okay, I see."

Fortunately, Yu Tang didn't have to worry for too long. Suddenly, news came from the palace that Princess Hexi summoned her to the palace.

Yu Tang changed into decent clothes and followed the eunuch who came to deliver the message into the palace.

The eunuch must have been instructed by Ji Qiyu, and he did not stop for a moment along the way, explaining the various rules of the palace to her in great detail.

He would also give a brief introduction to the people he met and the palaces he visited.

He can even tell which family the guards guarding the palace gate today belong to. He knows everything about the palace and should be one of the most useful people under Ji Qiyu.

He looked quite young, with beautiful features and eyebrows. Except for his skin being a little too white, he looked no different from the children of ordinary officials.

If it weren't for the eunuch's uniform he was wearing, one would have thought this elegant and refined man was some new star in the court.

"What is the name of this...father-in-law?"

When they were almost at Ji Qiyu's bedroom, Yu Tang took advantage of the rare silence between them and asked.

He paused for a moment, turned his head slightly and nodded to Yu Tang in a half-salute.

"My surname is Ling, which means ambitious. The princess gave me the name Pingzhi."

Ling Pingzhi? Lin Pingzhi? Yu Tang raised his eyebrows slightly. Ji Qiyu really has a bad taste.

"Is there anything wrong with this name? The princess had a strange expression when she was naming me. I dare not ask too much. You are the princess's best friend. If you can explain it to me, I will be very grateful."

Ling Pingzhi keenly noticed the change in Yu Tang's expression. After struggling for a while, he couldn't help but ask because he really cared.

"Ah, no, no, this is actually the name of a handsome and wealthy young man in a book that the princess and I once read."

"His family was destroyed and he was burdened with a blood feud. He endured humiliation and forbearance, and finally avenged his blood feud. However, he also lost his mind in the dark and dangerous process of revenge. The ending was tragic and sad."

Yu Tang actually didn't quite remember the original plot, so he gave a brief introduction based on his vague memory.

Ling Pingzhi was a little dazed after listening to these few short words. Yu Tang stared at his expression, thinking back to what he had just said, worried whether he had violated any taboo.

Fortunately, he came to his senses soon, "My servant lost her composure. Please, sir, the princess is waiting."
