The next morning, after breakfast, Qin Wanying was about to leave.

Yang Xiurong looked at her daughter with lingering reluctance.

If it weren't for the large family she had to manage and the numerous accounts to settle, she would have wanted to go with her daughter.

She offered to take her daughter to Tianji Garden with her.

Qin Wanying was touched; her mother was truly wonderful.

In her previous life, when she was in an orphanage, there was a primary school across from the orphanage.

When going to and from school, there are always children being picked up and dropped off by their parents, which she finds very enviable. She thinks it would be great if she had parents too.

However, Qin Wanying still rejected him.

How old is she? Some people take their daughters to school, but who takes their daughters to work?

Besides, there are many things to manage in the Marquis's mansion, and she didn't want her mother to have to do one more thing.

She put on a veil and rode in a carriage to Tianji Garden.

Unbeknownst to her, the entrance to Tianji Garden was already packed with people.

Because she correctly predicted that Zhou Yonglu would become the second-place scholar, the news spread throughout the city, and her name became well-known.

These people have made her out to be a mythical figure, saying that after she finished her divination, she flew away on a cloud, or that seven celestial maidens came to pick her up—there are all sorts of stories.

Many people come seeking her services, hoping to have their fortune told.

Most people came to watch the spectacle, as the majority were poor, and one hundred taels of silver was not something an ordinary person could afford.

She got off the carriage some distance away and walked over, where she saw a huge crowd of people in the market.

"Why are there so many people today?" she asked, puzzled.

It was only later that they discovered that all these people were gathered at the entrance of Tianji Garden.

As she walked over, someone with sharp eyes spotted her and quickly exclaimed, "The goddess has arrived!"

Everyone was very excited.

Qin Wanying had expected her name to become famous, but she never imagined that she would become famous after only one day of divination.

Seeing everyone staring at her curiously, she didn't feel uncomfortable and walked forward confidently.

As she walked forward, everyone consciously made way for her.

And so, under everyone's watchful eyes, she walked to the Heavenly Mystery Garden.

The two maids, both wearing veils, placed the table outside.

As soon as she sat down, she noticed a man in the crowd.

The man was about 1.85 meters tall, with slightly dark skin, handsome features, piercing eyes, and a red birthmark on his forehead.

Qin Wanying couldn't help but pay more attention.

There is a character in the book named Qi Ang, who has this appearance: slightly dark skin, handsome face, piercing eyes, and a red birthmark on his forehead.

Qin Wanying stared at the man for a few seconds, and sure enough, it was Qi Ang from the book.

Qi Ang was unaware that Qin Wanying had predicted Zhou Yonglu's second-place finish in the imperial examination; he simply saw the huge crowd and wanted to join in the fun.

When I got there, I found out it was a fortune-telling stall, and the fortune teller was actually a girl.

He has never believed in fortune-telling, thinking it's just superstition and deception.

Disdainful, he planned to leave immediately.

Qin Wanying recalled the plot. Qi Ang was originally a good person. He was very righteous and loyal, and would go to great lengths for his brothers.

He had a friend named Cheng Xiang. One day, Cheng Xiang got drunk and bumped into someone on the street, spilling his drink all over the person.

Originally, the other party did not intend to hold it against him, but he behaved improperly after drinking and even cursed the other party's parents and demanded that they kneel down and apologize to him.

In the end, they got into a fight, but the man couldn't beat them.

Qi Ang happened to be passing by and saw his good brother being beaten on the ground. He rushed over to help. Cheng Xiang lied and said that the man had beaten him for no reason and forced him to kneel down and apologize.

Qi Ang was furious and wanted to get justice for his good brother.

So he hit harder and broke one of the man's ribs.

It turns out this person was the son of an official. He must be held accountable.

He was imprisoned, and Cheng Xiang used his connections to shift all the blame onto him, exonerating himself completely.

In the end, Cheng Xiang was released after only one month in jail, while he not only had to bear all the compensation but was also sentenced to ten years in prison.

After Cheng Xiang was released from prison, he even came to the prison to mock him.

His only family member was his elderly mother. Seeing him imprisoned, she became depressed and eventually died.

He didn't even get to see his mother one last time when she died.

Finally, he had the chance to escape from prison, killed Cheng Xiang, and fled to the frontier.

The War King Xiao Dongqian discovered him and thought he was a talented general, so he took him in, gave him fine clothes and food, and appointed him to a position in the army.

Qi Ang was deeply grateful to the King of War and swore to be loyal to King Xiao Dongqian for the rest of his life.

Later, when Xiao Dongqian rebelled, he played a crucial role in the rebellion.

Without him, the War King's rebellion might not have succeeded.

This person was actually encountered by Qin Wanying here.

The fight involving Cheng Xiang hasn't happened yet, so there's still time.

Now that Qin Wanying has met Qi Ang, she must do everything in her power to change Qi Ang's fate and absolutely cannot let him side with Xiao Dongqian.

Qi Ang found it boring and turned to leave.

Qin Wanying quickly called out to him, "Young master, please wait."

Qi Ang didn't realize Qin Wanying was calling him and tried to squeeze out of the crowd.

"Young Master Qi Ang, please wait a moment," Qin Wanying continued.

Qi Ang was stunned.

He turned around hurriedly. How did this girl know his name? Could it be that she knew him?

The people around were also taken aback, not expecting the girl to call out to the man.

Qi Ang took a few steps closer to Qin Wanying: "Miss, how do you know my name? Do you know me?"

Qin Wanying smiled slightly: "We didn't know each other before, but we do now."

Qi Ang's piercing eyes were fixed on Qin Wanying, but unfortunately the girl was wearing a veil, so his expression was not visible.

Could it be that this person investigated his background beforehand and is now playing tricks on him?

Seeing that he didn't quite believe her, Qin Wanying continued, "You only have an elderly mother at home, and she is currently ill and taking medicine. You have an older brother, who died less than half a month after birth."

Qi Ang was shocked.

His name and family members are not difficult to find out.

However, he had an older brother who died less than half a month after birth, and no one knew about this except for him and his mother.

Everyone assumed he was an only child. How did this girl know he had an older brother?

Could this girl really be a fortune teller, and quite accurate at that?

"Does the young master believe in my abilities? Let me tell your fortune." Qin Wanying said with a smile.

Qi Ang looked at Qin Wanying without moving.

The main reason was that he saw the banner next to the table, which read "One hundred taels of silver for one divination".

A hundred taels of silver? He's just a laborer; he wouldn't be worth that much even if you sold him.
