Chapter 488

The male lead's ability to "seduce" is just that amazing.

He just sleeps and sleeps, isn't he afraid of getting sick from sleeping?

Okay, even if the male protagonist of a harem novel sleeps with every woman in the world, he won't suffer from kidney deficiency or get sick.

Ugh, what a bug!

Wen Xin waved her hand indifferently, and two palace servants immediately gagged the maid and dragged her away to deal with her.

The imperial court has always been ruthless; there's no reason to keep a disloyal person who has been sent to the emperor as a future threat.

The emperor is the ruler of the world, and also everyone's natural nemesis.

There are far too many people who want her dead.

There was no other way; regardless of whether it was a mistake or not, the emperor had to strike first.

"The Third Princess of Nan Yue is still unconscious?"

Wen Xin's voice was soft and gentle, like a breeze brushing against lotus flowers on a lake—gentle, yet concealing a deadly intent.

"Granny, you should go and see the Third Princess of Nan Yue yourself. If anything really happens to her, how can I, as the Emperor of Feng Yuan, have peace of mind?"

Granny Wan's eyes flashed, she bowed and agreed, and then led a group of palace servants to Jiang Yanche's bedroom.

Soon, Granny Wan led Jiang Yanche, who was carrying a zither, over.

He looks perfectly fine; he doesn't look injured or have a fever at all.

Jiang Yanche gritted his teeth, wishing he could burst into a tirade of curses.

He had no idea what that old hag, Granny Wan, had given him to eat or what medicine she had applied to his fingers.

But his illness did indeed improve immediately, and his wounds healed instantly.

To be honest, Jiang Yanche was scared.

Rumors circulated that the palace contained many strange and unusual medicines, and it turns out they were true.

Who knows what terrifying side effects these things might have?

However, being under their roof, Jiang Yanche had no way to resist and could only let them do as they pleased.

He felt both hatred and fear.

But he still couldn't understand how he had offended that little bitch, Empress Fengyuan.

Why would she target me like this?

Could it be that he touched a nerve by playing the piano by the lake yesterday?

But according to the information provided by the system, Empress Fengyuan, Wen Xin, is clearly a very innocent and kind-hearted girl...

Haha, look at what she did?

Which of these things is related to innocence and kindness?

This system is infected with malware!

[...] This is what its scan results are like; it's totally confused too!

However, Jiang Yanche also knew that everyone in the palace was wearing a mask, and their acting skills were comparable to those of movie stars. It seemed that the previous little empress's appearance of weakness was just a pretense for others to see.

Now that she has begun to gradually gain power, she naturally needs to project an imposing presence; otherwise, how can she intimidate her ministers?

But why is that little bitch bothering him for no reason?

Is he mentally ill?

Wen Xin, who has become psychologically disturbed once again: "..."

How could I possibly be more perverted than you, you stallion?

Furthermore, she didn't understand why a shameless loser who was a groper in modern times could transmigrate with a system and become the male protagonist.

Just how bizarre and cheap are the male protagonists in these abusive novels?

By the lake, Granny Wan smiled at Jiang Yanche, "Third Prince, if you are unwilling to play the zither for His Majesty, you can tell His Majesty directly. His Majesty is wise and will not make things difficult for you. However, you don't need to curse yourself to be sick."

Jiang Yanche was so angry at the old hag's hypocritical smile that he felt like he was going to vomit blood.

Doesn't she have any idea whether he's really injured or sick?

He couldn't refute it, so he could only speak politely and try to shift the blame to the palace maid to save himself.

Granny Wan felt a deep sense of irony.

She had lived through the reigns of three emperors, and she had seen all sorts of tricks and schemes used by men in the palace.

With Jiang Yanche's limited skills, if he were placed in the harem of the previous empress, he would have been killed many times over.

Besides, how could a man who has slept with countless women possibly dare to seduce His Majesty?

They're really courting death!

"Since Your Highness is so sincere in wishing to play the zither for His Majesty, then please do so."

Jiang Yanche: "..."

Jiang Yanche wished he could smash the zither into Granny Wan's face and curse her.

However, he could not; he had to play the piano politely and happily.

He'll turn things around someday...

[...] The system felt it was highly unlikely, extremely unlikely.

It had a vague premonition that this host might, possibly... be ruined.

It underestimated the great fortune of this small world.

However, it still has a chance. Once Jiang Yanche is crippled, it can choose a new host.

The Regent's aura was too overwhelming, causing the system to instinctively feel apprehensive, even fearful. In contrast, the Empress...

Her aura was pure and rich, unlike Jiang Yanche's which was superficial and filthy, making the system extremely envious.

When the system arrived in this small world, it did consider choosing Empress Fengyuan as its host.

However, her luck is too pure, and she is also protected by the nation's fortune. If the system wants to reside in her, it must obtain her consent, and the contract must be equal or even subordinate.

It naturally didn't want to, and if it could control Jiang Yanche to plunder her luck, it could rise to the top in one step, so why would it need to be so repressed?

Unfortunately, Jiang Yanche is no ordinary good-for-nothing.

The system is extremely disgusted!

Wen Xin was unaware that the system was coveting her. Did she already know?

It just meant that Honghong could eat a little earlier.
