In PCB extra and phantasm there's the bit in the stage titlecard about "A mysterious occurrence on the crossing to three countries" which is a reference to Tamamo no Mae and by extension Daji. She was an evil little shit and slept around with the rich and powerful causing their downfalls until being found out herself; then got sealed in the stone that broke two years ago. Whether Ran is or isn't Tamamo/Daji is debatable as there isn't anything supporting that other than this one bit, and her reasoning for leaving the Animal Realm makes it more unlikely. ZUN probably forgot by now either way.

There's a couple ways you can go about it.
1) She's a Shikigami and only acts as Yukari programmed, which doesn't include crude underhanded tactics like sleeping around with people to gain power because they already have what amounts to admin privileges.
2) She's a Shikigami with free will, she doesn't need to sleep around because being Yukari's Shiki already gives her more power and influence than she could possibly desire: so long as she acts within Yukari's interests and commands which she is prone to forgetting/ignoring (leading to parasol discipline).
or
3) She would do these things regardless, but there's not really any influential powerful people to gain anything from that they couldn't just pressure otherwise; they already have power as mentioned prior. If she just wanted sex there's a number of village boys she could choose from.
4) She wouldn't do these things because she's already in love with you.

Just think, it could be so easy and simple. The weight of what you've done is on your consciousness but in time you might even doubt it happened. After all, there's no proof of it other than what some nebulous voice told you. For all you know it could be one giant Milgram experiment and you outed yourself as a sociopath for selling the world for your 2wife, but why bother thinking about the hard stuff when she makes your brain feel all soft and fluffy all the time?
Until you remember that Gensokyo is also affected by events on the outside, like mass deaths for example. And Gensokyo is still dependent on the outside world for things, such as the existence of reason and common sense that gives the barrier meaning. Not to mention you'd be going straight down to Avici when you die for accumulating anantarika karma (genocide + killing both parents intentionally). And more importantly, what would your 2wife think of the mass extinction event you created? OP never stated it was unconditional love.
