A Promotion Guide in the Harem

In the end, Leng Qiyue suffered twenty blows, and her hands were completely red. She gritted her teeth as she thought, "Back then, I chased you out of the palace for your own good, and now you're actually going to repay me with kindness and enmity, targeting me everywhere."

Suddenly, she remembered the ball of paper. She angrily stepped on it twice, venting her anger. Then, she picked up the ball of paper and unfolded it. It read: "Come to my room when I'm ugly."

Although Leng Qiyue didn't know what Han Liu was up to, she still decided to take a look.

At night, the other students were fast asleep. Leng Qiyue quietly got up and snuck into Han Liu's room. Han Liu did not sleep, but lit a candle and read a book. Seeing Leng Qiyue, she smiled and said, "How is it? Is the feeling of being beaten bad? "

Leng Qiyue sat across her and snorted, "What do you think? It's not like you're the one getting beaten up. "

Han Liu giggled. "I hit you for your own good. If I don't let you remember, how are you going to correct me?"

Leng Qiyue did not answer him and instead asked, "Speak, why did you find me?"

Han Liu poured a cup of tea for Leng Qiyue and said, "I received news from the emperor that he told me about your situation. I never thought that so many things would happen after I left the palace. Now that the empress dowager has decided to raise you, you must work hard. "

Leng Qiyue snorted. "I see that before I could become a lady, you guys have already beaten me to death."

Han Liu smiled lightly. "That won't happen. Listen to me. There's a book called The Lady's Guide. As long as you can get that book and learn its contents, you can become an outstanding empress."

"'Maid's Strategy'?" Why did Leng Qiyue feel that the title of this book was especially similar to a modern title?

"Yes, when the Maid Academy was first established, there were no other students. Thus, the Head of the Hall bought a few girls. One of them was a girl called Wu Meixuan, who later joined the palace as the empress. She was the one who wrote this "Maid's Guide". This book was divided into two volumes, the first volume teaching etiquette, and the second volume teaching the male arts. "Later on, the second half of the book was hidden and only empress who has reached the age of thirty can read it. Furthermore, this empress's character must be approved by the hall master."

"Then how do we get this book?" Leng Qiyue's curiosity was aroused once again.

Han Liu said, "There are only two ways to obtain the second half. First, you will become an empress and be over thirty years old. Secondly, solve the mystery left behind by Wu Meixuan, find the location of the book collection and you can obtain it. But we can't bring them out of the academy, we have to finish them here. "

Leng Qiyue thought for a moment and said, "The first choice is definitely out of the question. I'm only twenty this year, wouldn't I need to wait ten more years until I'm thirty? "No way, no way."

Han Liu looked at Leng Qiyue in surprise and said, "You're twenty? "The same age as me, I always thought you were younger than me, but your IQ really does look like you're only 16 or 17."

Leng Qiyue glanced at her. Was he praising her or insulting her?

"Where is the mystery?" Leng Qiyue decided to try the second method.

"The riddles are written on the screens in the Hall of Virtue. Every monthly student has three days of opportunity to enter the Hall of Virtue and can study the various books there. When it's your turn to go, you better take a good look and look for clues. I tried, but I couldn't find anything. "

"You want to be a queen too?" Leng Qiyue asked in astonishment.

Han Liu rolled her eyes. "I don't want to be an empress, I'm just curious. Curiosity, do you understand?"

Leng Qiyue giggled, thought of a question, and asked, "Aren't you getting married when you leave the palace? Why are you here? How did the Emperor contact you? "

Han Liu took a sip of tea and said, "The man I like has married my wife. I don't want to be a concubine, so I didn't marry him. Since this place is open for recruitment, I came here to be an aunt. We don't have to worry about food and drinks here, and we also have a very high salary. I think it's pretty good, you don't have to eat from your family. "

"Didn't you bring something with you when you left the palace? That's enough for you to eat and drink for the rest of your life. "

Han Liu forced a smile and said, "My father married a concubine, and the concubine gave birth to a boy. The boy grew up and started gambling. Do you understand?"

Leng Qiyue almost laughed out loud. This Han Liu was really interesting, using a euphemistic way to tell her that she had a gambling brother.

Han Liu continued, "He owes him a large sum of money and is being hunted down by the creditors. I can't watch the Xu family's incense burn out, so I took out some silver to pay him back." "He also bought back the house that he had lost, but he actually turned hostile and said that he was the successor of the Xu family and that I was the one who had poured water on him and chased me out."

Leng Qiyue angrily slapped the table and said, "Hmph! One day, I will have him kowtow to you and apologize."

Han Liu smiled and said, "Forget it, he's actually not that bad. At least he's very filial to my father. It's all that slut's fault." Not being able to properly teach him and lead him on the evil path. When his mother kicked me out of the house, he even secretly gave me some silver. Although it wasn't much, it was his intention. Forget about this matter, I also don't want to see that slut's face again. "

Leng Qiyue sighed. It was fortunate that Liu Zhi was tall and had a strong temper. Otherwise, he would have been bullied by her stepmother and would not have been able to take it anymore.

Han Liu patted Leng Qiyue's hand and said, "You have to be obedient here. The aunts here have never been married before, so they all feel a bit abnormal. "Don't say so much. Just think of yourself as a servant."

Leng Qiyue nodded. She had already experienced her aunt's strange temper before. For example, that Aunty Han. Seeing that she was unhappy was also a reason, so she could only punish her by not eating for a day.

The two chatted for a while before Leng Qiyue couldn't take it anymore and ran back to sleep.

In the following training session, although Leng Qiyue didn't receive any punishment, she also received quite a few lashes from the whip. Finally, after the meal course was over, they were told that they could study for three days at the Kindness Shrine. If they didn't study, they could freely move around. It was the equivalent of a holiday. The other students did not have much of a reaction, but Leng Qiyue was exceptionally excited.

Mystery, 'Maid's Guide', hehe … I'm here.

However … Leng Qiyue had overestimated her intelligence. She had been squatting in front of the screen for a whole day when she first entered the Hall of Virtue. Other than seeing that the map showed the Eight Immortals Crossing the Seas, she didn't see anything special on the screen.

Qian mama was the current hall master of the Hall of Maiden Maiden. She came from the palace, but with so many opinions and opinions, she didn't explain herself. So there were two of the most popular versions.

Firstly, Senior Servant Qian was a princess of the palace. When she was young, her beauty made her look down on men, and in the end, she had always been a woman of character.

The second was that Senior Servant Qian was the favorite concubine of some emperor who had escaped the palace in order to avoid death.

This was because only these two explanations could explain the noble aura that came from Qian mama. As for whether it was true or not, no one knew.

Senior Servant Qian seemed to have noticed Leng Qiyue's intention. She didn't stop her, nor did she offer any pointers. She merely watched on quietly.

Every time Leng Qiyue met Senior Servant Qian's gaze, she would feel as if she was being electrocuted. She didn't know why, but she felt a little afraid of her from the bottom of her heart. Qian mama's gaze made her uncomfortable. She couldn't concentrate, so every time she looked at the screen, she felt it was different from the last time. However, she couldn't say what was wrong with it. Just like that, she wasted one day.

That night, Leng Qiyue found her way to Han Liu's room and pulled her out of bed.

Han Liu complained, "Did you find out that you didn't sleep in the middle of the night?"

Leng Qiyue said dejectedly, "It was she who came looking for you because she didn't find you. Do you know who Senior Servant Qian is?" She stared at me when I was looking at the screen. Her eyes were so sharp that I couldn't concentrate on her. "

Han Liu yawned and said, "I don't know, but I was very afraid of her when I first came. After getting along with her for so long, I shouldn't be afraid if I know she's a good person." However, the way she looks at you is indeed a bit sharp, it's not as peaceful as when she looks at us. "

Leng Qiyue had a sullen look on her face. "I knew it. She must have found out that I was looking for a mystery and deliberately used that kind of gaze to distract me."

"Hmm, you might put it that way, but it's not going to be easy. If you want to focus on the screen, then you have to focus on it." Han Liu was disheartened.

Leng Qiyue stared blankly at the flickering candlelight. Suddenly, she smiled and said, "Haha, there's a way."
