Chapter 3

Chapter Three

After gaining a basic understanding of the system's functions, Lin Mu began spending three hours each day learning the language and writing system, of course, in the virtual space.

Fortunately, Lin Mu is still a baby, and sleeping a little longer each day won't attract attention.

After a while, I finally had no problem with basic daily communication and could understand what people around me were saying.

At the same time, I also gained a basic understanding of my current environment.

When Lin Mu first heard people around her call her "Princess," her smile seemed to be welded onto her face.

Emperor father, Empress mother, and princess herself, oh my god!

The top-tier power heirs and the top-tier wealth heirs stand at the pinnacle of a feudal dynasty.

This is even more exciting than winning a hundred million in the lottery!

"System, system, system! Do you know I'm a princess?" Lin Mu continued to be excited, his expression quite rich and interesting.

This period was the most expressive phase the system had ever seen in its host, Lin Mu. As things progressed, the host's expressions became pitifully few.

"Of course, I thought you knew!" The system cat was speechless.

"Then I'm born at the peak! The path to becoming a phoenix is ​​just a piece of cake!" Finally, it was Lin Mu's turn to clench his fist. An easy life was coming, it was simply tailor-made for the path to becoming a phoenix.

"But your princess ending isn't so good!" The system cat used its two paws to lift a large bucket of cold water and splashed it all over the host, waking Lin Mu from his dream of lying flat.

Thus, Lin Mu's dream of lying flat in the future was shattered before it even began.

"The ending wasn't good? In what specific way?" The smile on Lin Mu's face slowly disappeared and turned into suspicion.

Sure enough, the adjectives like "as easy as turning one's hand" and "as effortless as petting a fluffy creature" are still just as difficult to achieve as actually doing it.

"First of all, Emperor Chengjing, Xiao Jin, who is your father, married your mother because he was interested in the resources that the Liu family behind your mother could provide to help him rise to the top!" The system told Lin Mu about the plot of the gift package that Lin Mu had forgotten to read.

“If that’s all there is to it, it’s nothing. Marriage is mostly an exchange of value and benefits. Mutual respect and courtesy after marriage is fine,” Lin Mu replied.

"However, when Emperor Chengjing was young, he was once attacked and injured, but was saved by a mysterious woman. After that, Emperor Chengjing never forgot this woman." The system cat continued to tell the story.

"Therefore, he felt that the current empress was not suitable to be a wife, and Xiao Jin wanted to depose the empress and marry the woman he loved."

"But the Empress is not just the Empress; she also has the Liu family behind her. Xiao Jin cannot depose the Empress at will if she has no faults against her."

"The Liu family is too powerful, so Xiao Jin can't make a move against them. He is now planning to first destroy the Liu family, then depose the empress, and finally spend his life with the woman he loves."

"The Liu clan was wiped out, the empress was deposed, and as a princess, you should know what your fate will be." The system cat licked its paws and then scratched its head.

"Then, my mother was deposed, the Liu family was destroyed, and as the daughter of the deposed empress, I probably wouldn't have a good ending either." Lin Mu continued writing the story of the cat.

It's like a huge bowl of dog blood has come crashing down on us for no reason, and there are so many things to complain about!

"No, what do you mean by 'for the white moonlight'? 'For love'?"

"Isn't it because he felt that the power of the maternal relatives was too great and would threaten his throne? Emperor Chengjing wanted to consolidate his power, so he tried every means to get rid of the Liu family."

"They even attributed the cause to a woman!"

"Does that woman know that she did a good deed, accumulated merit, and saved someone, but she still has to take the blame for his subsequent actions?"

"Still trying to portray a deeply affectionate persona? Deeply affectionate?"

"Then why get married in the first place? Was the marriage with the Liu family something he planned? Does he have some kind of mental or psychological problem?"

"A strong, hypocritical, and melodramatic aura washed over me."

"There's another crucial point: I wasn't born from a womb, but rather possessed, right? The original little princess died at birth, didn't she?" Although Lin Mu's tone was questioning, he was already certain in his heart that this child died at birth, and was probably sent away by his own father.

"I don't know. When the system bound you, you were already a baby! Whether it was possession or birth, the system doesn't know either!" The system cat answered Lin Mu's question.

"You just said 'first,' which means there's a 'then.' What's 'then'?" Lin Mu continued to ask.

"Then, your mother, Empress Liu, was actually a clever woman. She gradually realized the emperor's intentions and decided to play along, secretly accumulating power in order to get rid of the emperor at the right time and support her own son to succeed to the throne."

"As for you, Empress Jinghe noticed certain similarities between your face and Emperor Chengjing's, and her disgust slowly began to appear and gradually accumulated."

"In the end, you were completely ignored, but Empress Jinghe wasn't so heartless as to harm her own daughter. She adopted an 'out of sight, out of mind' strategy towards you." The system's cat storytelling class continued.

Wow, the melodramatic plot has been replaced with an inspirational one.

"At least they woke up early. If they only woke up when their families were destroyed, that would be even more dramatic."

"Then there's the scene where the emperor discovers his white moonlight is the empress, followed by a wife-chasing-after-the-cremation scenario."

"Then the empress is moved by the emperor, and the ending is a happy one, which is a bit too melodramatic and tragic!"

"It's more comfortable to watch a storyline where the protagonist remains steadfast in their pursuit of revenge!"

Lin Mu's barrage output today was no less than Maomao's.

"System, can you roughly estimate how long the apparent harmony between the Emperor and Empress can last?" This is what Lin Mu is most concerned about right now.

The duration of harmony between the Emperor and Empress is crucial to how long Lin Mu can enjoy her good fortune, and also to the time she can secretly accumulate power.

"About nine years, but that's just a guess." Cat couldn't draw a definitive conclusion either.

"Nine years, it seems the Liu family is indeed powerful! They've managed to hold out against the royal family for nine years." Lin Mu thought nine years was quite good; it would be even better if the emperor and empress fought for a longer period.

"System, as the host of the Phoenix Soaring Heaven System, how many points would I get if I became the emperor?" Lin Mu's pie-in-the-sky rhetoric began again.

"In this environment, becoming an emperor should place you in the top ten of the Phoenix Soaring to the Heavens system in terms of points," the system cat said after checking the data.

"The Phoenix Soaring to the Heavens System? There are many such systems?" Lin Mu exclaimed in shock.

"Of course, the universe is vast. There are at least six billion known worlds, and who knows how many more are yet to be discovered." The system told Lin Mu the existing data statistics.

"There are approximately ten thousand Phoenix Pride Systems, but there aren't many systems in this particular track right now," the system reported, providing an estimated figure.

"What conditions are needed to become the number one in the Phoenix Soaring System?" Lin Mu was very curious about the difficulty of the one-in-a-million task.

"Based on the existing data analysis, in this world, if one ascends to the throne, the country becomes powerful, and one's personal martial arts strength reaches its peak, one should be able to surpass the current number one and become the new number one in the Phoenix Overlord System." The system cat analyzed the past data with a serious expression and finally came to a conclusion.

"Then let's work together to cultivate to the highest level and become the supreme emperor, the system within the system! The host among hosts!" Lin Mu continued to make empty promises.

"Moreover, I believe that with the great system's abilities, it will definitely stand out in the Phoenix Pride System track and leave the most brilliant mark in the history of the Phoenix Pride System, without exception!" Lin Mu was determined, thinking that no system cat could refuse such a thing as leaving a name in history.

"And with the help of the great Phoenix Soaring System, I will surely have everything go smoothly, cultivate the highest and strongest martial arts, ascend to the supreme position, and become number one will be a piece of cake and just around the corner!" Lin Mu continued to output.

"Let's cheer each other on and get this done together!" Lin Mu reached out his hand to the system cat.

Let's cheer each other on! Let's get this done together!

Let's cheer each other on! Let's get this done together!

Lin Mu's hand and the cat's paw are together. Keep it up!

Lin Mu, we don't know what the future holds, but it's better than doing nothing.

In everything we do, we must first do it and then continuously revise it to achieve the final goal.

If you do nothing, the result will be obvious.

When the time comes, the throne will be consolidated, the empress will be deposed and a new empress will be installed, and the princess born to the deposed empress will have a hard time no matter what.

At best, they are neglected, but they can still grow up and eventually get married when they reach marriageable age. After marriage, they still have to depend on others in order to live a stable life.

If things go wrong, it's uncertain whether they can grow up safely. Perhaps the new queen doesn't intend to kill Lin Mu, but someone will always do it for her to show their loyalty.

Therefore, for now, I can only lie low and frantically upgrade my skills so that I can be free from constraints in the future.

The final result is either death and restarting a new account, or living a life worse than death and then restarting a new account!

Take life and death lightly, and fight if you disagree!
