She was dressed as the vicious female supporting character who met the worst fate in a sadistic novel, and was assigned the task of "encountering the male protagonist by chance" by the system at the beginning.
Shen Qingyan looked at the four words "Lingchi execution" in the script and nailed the silver scissors into the bamboo pole next to the guard's ear with his backhand, ruining the entire plot of the Spring Banquet.
The system was furious and forced her to go to a gambling house to die. She simply lifted the chessboard, found Gu Jiusi, the hidden boss in the original work, who even the male protagonist was afraid of, knocked on the door of the coffin shop, and negotiated a deal——
"My stepmother wants me to die with a stick, so I will comply with her wish. But before I die, I have to bring the entire Hou family to be buried with her."
Gu Jiusi peeled the orange and asked her the price. Shen Qingyan pushed the incense powder across the table, with the candlelight in his eyes: "I want you to release the news - Shen Qingyan, the legitimate daughter of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, went to the gambling house today with a large amount of money to pay off her father's debt."
"Then what?"
"Then tomorrow at the flower appreciation poetry gathering, I will sit in front of everyone and compose a poem in a clean voice. Every sentence will praise my stepmother's virtues, and every sentence will be like a knife covered in honey."
Gu Jiusi chuckled: "Interesting."
But he didn't know that what Shen Qingyan really wanted to destroy was never just the Hou Mansion. There is also Prince Jing Xiao Yan who is suspicious by nature and pressing every step of the way.
When everyone thought she was digging her own grave, she had already put the entire capital on a chessboard.
