The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

Although Xie Caiying was born in the Xie family, and there were women in the Xie family working in the court, Xie Caiying was obviously the type who liked to be pampered at home rather than working hard to compete for power with other men outside.

This may be related to the education given to Xie Caiying by her mother. Xie Caiying's mother was the one her father proposed to marry after he declined the marriage arranged by the old lady of the Xie family. She had an ordinary family background and her ancestral home was in Shandong. She was said to be illiterate, but she was very beautiful. When she was young, she was almost forcibly married by an official. She was only saved from suffering after she met her current husband who saved her.

To sum up, it is obvious that her knowledge is limited.

However, under her mother's education, Xie Caiying not only did not think that her sisters who were of the same clan and were very outstanding were so outstanding, but she privately belittled them with her mother many times. She even said that she was very distressed to have the same surname as such profit-driven sisters, and worried that it would delay her marriage.

Of course, after she had a lover who obviously appreciated women like her sisters more, although Xie Caiying still complained to her mother privately about her sisters being too "flashy" in public, she also began to imitate their words and deeds consciously or unconsciously.

But after all, we are not the same kind of people, so...

Li Qingyi had a relatively indifferent feeling towards this little girl. Although she had a conflict with Wang Xuan, Li Qingyi personally did not have any ill feelings towards her.

The premise is that the little girl did not do anything excessive.

Unfortunately, Li Qingyi subconsciously treated this thirteen-year-old girl as a child, but from the system she once again realized that in this era, thirteen years old is no longer a child.

System: [Xie Caiying once bribed the maidservant of the second daughter of the Xie family. The day before the Xie sisters went to a banquet together, she added allergens to her food, causing the daughter to develop a rash that night. She was sick for a while before she recovered.]

System: [Because the Xie family has a clean family tradition, although the first and second branches are not brothers from the same father and mother, the relationship between the two branches is good, and the relationship between the younger generations is the same. At least there has been no conflict on the surface, so this incident did not arouse the suspicion of the Xie family and the parties involved, and they just thought it was their own carelessness. ]

System: [Last winter, Xie Caiying took advantage of the fact that the maid she bribed caught a cold and fell ill. She was arranged to rest in the servants' room. She found an opportunity to pass by at night and opened the window of the maid's room. As a result, the maid not only did not recover, but became even sicker. In addition, the medicine she took was not suitable for her condition, so she died soon.]

System: [It seems that no one has ever suspected this matter. 】

System: [In addition, Xie Caiying has relied on the fact that Xie family members generally do not doubt their own family members since she was a child, and has often used some tricks on her sisters and even brothers. Sometimes it is because the other party has stolen her limelight, but sometimes the system cannot know what her specific thoughts are, because she does not always tell these to her confidants or her mother. ]

Li Qingyi: […You mean, Xie Caiying has already killed someone? ]

System: [Yes. 】

The system paused, and then said: [By the way, host, Xie Caiying's name is marked in red in the system. I checked and her merit is negative.]

This is really rare to see.

Although it seems that it is not difficult for Li Qingyi to obtain merit, it is also because Li Qingyi now has the convenience of her status. If she was born in an ordinary family, she would have to rely on luck and brains to do a good deed.

As for the reason...because many times, you feel that you are doing good things, but others may not understand.

Similarly, increasing merit points is not as easy as imagined, and deducting them is not that simple either.

For example, if a murderer has killed a person, logically speaking, if God has eyes, his merit points should be deducted, right?

But in fact, it is not. If you simply kill a person, and this person is not a good person with deep merits, then generally this behavior will not cause changes in merits.

Because in many worlds with the Law of Heaven, the Law of Heaven regards the act of killing as a part of the survival of the fittest, just as the Law of Heaven will not send a tiger to hell because it kills a rabbit.

Don’t say that a man is a man and a tiger is a tiger. In the eyes of heaven, they are all the same, just another kind of living creature.

What is the relationship between human laws and the way of heaven?

In this case, the merit value can become a negative number. Although he is not necessarily a great villain, he has definitely done something that is harmful to the world and morality. Maybe others don't know about it, but the heavens are always watching.

After the system told Li Qingyi all the details, Li Qingyi asked: [Can't the system find any relevant information? ]

The system probably fiddled with it in the background for a while before saying, "Oh, there is actually relevant information, but because you said before that you would try to avoid exploring personal privacy, this is used as a selection criterion and it has been hidden."

System: [If the host wants to know, he can also buy it. ]

The system paused again, and then continued: [Oh no, this melon is forbidden. Host, you have to wait a few years before you can buy it. ]

Li Qingyi: [……]

Others who listened to the whole thing: …

Although Wang Xuan and Chen Qicong didn't mention the term "Twelve Forbidden Rules", in fact, the others, even the few people who had been sitting in the next box for who knows how long, could infer some meaning from the literal meaning.

Li Qingyi was somewhat speechless about the age classifications that popped up from time to time in the system. In the end, he could only remind Wang Xuan: "Be careful. Although I heard that the Xie family has a good family tradition, there are different kinds of people. Not everyone from the same family is an honest person."

Wang Xuan naturally agreed not to mention it.

After that, Chen Qicong left soon due to something. After Li Qingyi and Wang Xuan had lunch in the restaurant, Li Qingyi thought about the purpose of his appointment with Wang Xuan. Although he was a little relaxed now, he still suggested that Wang Xuan accompany him for a walk.

When it comes to heart-to-heart talks, sometimes doing it in a small room is not as effective. It is better to chat while strolling around. When the person you are talking to is relaxed, it is easier for them to open up to you.

But Li Qingyi didn't expect that the deal would not be reached today.

Not long after the two of them left the restaurant and walked out of the street, Li Qingyi was still chatting with Wang Xuan and hadn't interrupted the topic yet, when out of the corner of his eye he saw a woman in plain clothes holding a child in her arms. She had a calm expression but walked hurriedly into a small alley ahead.

Wang Xuan also noticed the woman.

The two of them stopped walking at the same time, and the topic they were talking about came to an abrupt end. After looking at each other, Li Qingyi said decisively: "Catch her!"
