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

Fang Xin finally coaxed Li Qingyi over, mainly because Li Qingyi automatically understood from Fang Xin's words that Fang Xin was having her period.

Well, as for girls, some of them always look very ugly when they have their period. Li Qingyi, who is also a girl, expressed her understanding and was very considerate and did not ask any further questions.

Then, when he woke up the next morning, Li Qingyi realized that he had forgotten something.

Li Qingyi: [Xiao Ba, Xiao Ba. ]

The system immediately responded: [Here we are! ]

[I should have bought a melon yesterday! ]

The system crashed before she finished eating the melon, and she almost forgot about it!

Moreover, the system was updated because of this melon. After the update, it told her that this world was a derivative world of the novel. If she said that there was no trick in the melon of this book, no one would believe it!

System: [Hmm? Oh, that's what happened. ]

System: [I almost forgot, host, the melon you bought yesterday is actually quite simple. It is about Wang Xuan, who wrote storybooks. Her father passed away, and her stepmother treated her badly. Wang Xuan didn't want to suffer this grievance at home, so she ran to her uncle's house to write storybooks. After making money, her stepmother's family became jealous. It happened that Wang Xuan's storybooks took away some of the scholars' business, so they united to report Wang Xuan.]

[Originally, this matter could have been handled by the local county government, but Wang Xuan's uncle had some influence, and the county magistrate had been saved by his uncle before. In addition, Wang Xuan's notebook did not mention any names, so they turned a blind eye and let it go.]

【A powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake. Logically, the matter should be left alone. After all, the storybooks did not earn much, just over 200 taels. When it came to Wang Xuan, it was only over 100 taels. Some of the scholars started to learn how to write, and the rest did not want to go against the local government, as it would not do any good.】

[But Wang Xuan's stepmother was afraid that Wang Xuan would come forward and harm them. She was a branch of the Chen family, so the relationship was neither close nor distant, but she could contact some people through this identity. So she had someone pay a censor to kill Wang Xuan in the cradle.]

Li Qingyi: [The one you bribed was the one from yesterday? ]

System: [Yes, that censor’s surname is Ping. His family is very poor, but he has a hobby of spending a lot of money. He likes to visit prostitutes, but he always goes there to hide from others. He also keeps a mistress and keeps it a secret.]

[He was bribed, firstly because of money, and secondly because he was caught with this handle, so he agreed to this matter. ]

Li Qingyi: ...

This seems outrageous no matter how you listen to it.

A storybook, a writer, and a step-wife who inexplicably wanted to kill her step-daughter...

Li Qingyi: [You said at the time that the script written by Wang Xuan had too high a overlap with the world line...]

System: [Well, although the names of the protagonist and supporting characters in the story book do not match the real world, and many details are not completely consistent, the context is basically consistent with what has happened. So far, the only discrepancy is what happened between Li Qi and the Crown Prince.]

[In the story, the host family adopted a posthumous child who was their confidant. After the child grew up, he fought with the legitimate son for the family property and successfully killed the legitimate son. However, the matter was eventually exposed by the host's seventh son.]

[Oh, in this story, the seventh son is the protagonist. ]

Li Qingyi was silent.

Li Qingyi was in a trance.

Li Qingyi: [The novel derivative you are talking about is not the derivative of the novel written by this person, right? ]

That would be a fallacy.

System: [No, this Wang Xuan, how should I put it, I have some doubts about her identity, but I can't tell for sure. Even because she is not in the service area, even if I ask you to perform a character detection, I can't confirm her data.]

[But there is good news. Wang Xuan found out about her stepmother's instigation and is now on her way to Beijing. Maybe she wants to defend herself?]

So, under normal circumstances, who would care about a storybook?

Li Qingyi was thinking about this, but suddenly remembered that there had been some official banned books in history, and he felt a little dazed.

As for the information implied in what the system said...

Li Qingyi: [Wang Xuan... I do have a student named Wang Xuan, but if she is really my student, how could she know these contents? ]

System: [Then I don’t know. We can only find out the details after she arrives in Beijing. Moreover, considering how ruthless her stepmother is, it’s hard to say whether she can arrive in Beijing smoothly.]

Li Qingyi: [……]

Li Qingyi thought for a few seconds, then stood up and called Fang Xin over. "Aunt, help me pack. I'm going to look for my mother. We'll leave the palace later. Aunt, help me deliver the invitation to the Princess's residence. I won't be visiting you. Please help me call Li Zhu out."

Fang Xin heard this and agreed without asking any further questions.

The Queen learned that Li Qingyi was going to leave the palace to look for Li Zhu. Although the trip was a little sudden, she did not stop him. She was just a little hesitant: "Your cousin may not be free today."

Li Qingyi waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'll ask Sister Nine to go with me."

She is a child and she understands that she must be accompanied by an adult when she goes out.

The Seventh Princess was still under house arrest, but the Ninth Princess was not, so Li Qingyi directly targeted this seemingly weak sister.

As for why she chose the Ninth Princess... well, how should I put it, although the Ninth Princess looks weak, there is a saying that goes, birds of a feather flock together. The person who can have a good relationship with the Seventh Princess cannot be a weak person.

Moreover, for some reason, Li Qingyi felt that this Ninth Sister had a kind of... uh, black-hearted temperament at first glance.

Maybe it's an illusion.

Over there, the Ninth Princess was drinking lotus seed porridge leisurely. When she heard the palace servant from Kunning Palace say this, she was a little surprised, but she did not refuse. She wiped her mouth gracefully and asked, "Is that so? Are you leaving the palace soon?"

The palace maid replied politely, "The young prince said that the schedule is urgent and you may not be prepared. If you don't want to, she will find someone else."

The Ninth Princess nodded and said, "That's fine. I have nothing to do anyway. I can just send someone to the study to ask for leave. But it's not appropriate to wear this dress when leaving the palace. I'm afraid you'll have to wait for me, sister. I'll go and pack a few things."

"It should be."

Li Qingyi was very active at this time. After taking the queen's token, he calculated the distance between the Ninth Princess's residence and the palace gate. Finally, he sent someone to tell the Ninth Princess and wait for them to meet up at the palace gate.

I thought I would have to wait for a long time, but unexpectedly, as soon as Li Qingyi arrived at the palace gate, he saw the Ninth Princess coming from the other side with several palace servants.

Li Qingyi was curious: "Sister, don't you bring guards?"

The Ninth Princess held her handkerchief and smiled, "Sister, what are you talking about? I don't have many guards. I only ask people to transfer a few guards from the guard camp when I go out of the palace occasionally."

Li Qingyi, who has a fixed quota of ten guards:?
