[Dream of the Red Chamber] Daiyu Gets a Merit System

This novel will be going premium on October 8, with a 10,000-word update to celebrate. I hope you'll support it! Lin Daiyu is set up to be presented to the retired emperor, who is already in his sixties. The good news: The retired emperor is her father, Lin Hai, reborn. She has also been bound to a Merit System. Doing good deeds earns her Merit Points, which she can exchange for all kinds of magical items. The bad news: Both she and her father are in mortal danger, and many people around them are watching them like hawks. The store is full of items: storm orbs, disguise pills, longevity pills, medical books, steam engines, high-yield crop seeds, storage space... The more precious the item, the higher its price. Just as she finally saves up enough Merit Points to exchange for a longevity pill for her father, one compulsory mission after another drops in. [An epidemic is raging in the southwest. Host, proceed there at once, or your Merit Points will be reset to zero!] [Flooding in the southeast. Host, set out at once, or your health points will be reset to zero!] No wonder the System had assigned her tasks early on, making her read medical books and learn flood control and military strategy. It had all been laying the groundwork from the start! P.S. 1. This is probably a story about people trying to drag the protagonist into palace intrigue, only for the princess to say, "I'm not even going to be a princess. Why bother with palace intrigue? Isn't governing the country and bringing peace to the world more important?" 2. The story is told mainly from Daiyu's point of view. The male lead appears a little later. Daiyu is not a traditional woman bound by the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. 3. The second branch of the Jia family and the Xue family are villains. The story saves the women of the Dream of the Red Chamber, except for those who bring about their own ruin.
