Di Bing felt refreshed and invigorated lately.

He used to get a headache whenever he saw his concubines.

Now he desperately wants them to appear in front of him often.

Hahaha.

Because he's a big shot with a system.

He didn't know what a system was.

But he knew that the system could help him achieve his wishes!

【888, are you sure that if I appear in front of these people every day, it won't harm them?】

Emperor Bing was not a fool; on the contrary, he was able to ascend the throne because he was very clever.

May all your wishes come true.

With such a great temptation, all he had to do was go to places with lots of people.

He always felt that 888 hadn't told him something.

Yes, Master.

888's voice sounded dull, and every time he spoke, it emitted a crackling sound like electricity.

Hua Rong walked a short distance away and happened to hear the sound.

It is regrettable to confirm that this renovation was a failure.

She could only roughly confirm that the system and the chip were related, but she had no way to modify them.

Perhaps the forbidden planes have a relevant method.

"Your Majesty..."

Hua Rong paused, because as soon as Di Bing saw her, he... ran away!

She frowned. What was going on with Di Bing?

Meanwhile, the fleeing Emperor Bing scolded Ji Xiang, who was standing nearby: "Didn't you say the Queen was staying in the Silk and Bamboo Pavilion? How come she's in the Imperial Garden?"

Jixiang was heartbroken; the Queen was the King of Huangqilin.

How could a little demon like it possibly control her?

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, but the Queen... perhaps she wishes to see Your Majesty."

Jixiang got too caught up in the role and was often influenced by the memories of the real Jixiang.

Zhen Jixiang was known throughout the harem for her skill in flattering the emperor.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Bing's brows relaxed, but he immediately sighed.

He misses her too.

But he still doesn't completely believe in 888.

He was very selfish and wanted the "wish fulfillment" reward.

He was worried about appearing in front of others, but he remained indifferent.

Hua Rong was the only person he didn't want to hurt.

[888, how far are we from achieving our goal?]

[Luck Value.]

Di Bing: Although I don't understand it, I feel there's still a lot to learn.

"Oh, Your Majesty! Your humble servant greets you."

Di Bing was startled by the sudden sound. He looked up and saw a beautiful, delicate woman.

He shuddered, and his throat felt sour.

He recalled that rat feast he would never forget in his life!

[Luck Value +100]

The familiar mechanical sound made Di Bing suddenly feel a little guilty.

He didn't know why, but when he met other concubines, his luck would increase by +1, +10, or at most +50, but when he met the person in front of him, it increased by a lot.

Is this luck value calculated based on his dislike value?

Perhaps it was because his luck had increased significantly, but Emperor Bing suddenly found the concubine in front of him more pleasing to the eye.

"Hmm, accompany me for a stroll in the Imperial Garden."

Li, the snake spirit, was overjoyed and kept trying to get close to Di Bing along the way.

The dragon is what the snake longs for!

Emperor Bing endured the unease that made his scalp tingle and spent quite a while with Consort Li.

Unfortunately, the mechanical sound did not reappear.

Each person can only attempt the luck-stealing event once per day.

【Oh, I believe you.】

He had great faith in the results of his verification.

He gave Jixiang a wink, and Jixiang immediately understood.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is still waiting for you in the Zhengming Hall to discuss matters."

"Well then! In that case, I shall take my leave."

After finishing his speech, Di Bing strode away.

"Your Majesty!"

Li Meiren stood there stamping her feet.

After losing sight of Di Bing, her eyes narrowed, looking cold and menacing.

"Hiss~ It smells so good..."

Emperor Bing felt refreshed after escaping from Consort Li, whom he found uncomfortable just by being near her.

He was somewhat reluctant at the thought of going to the Zhengming Hall for a meeting.

He had already seen those ministers when he went to court that morning.

However, he still remembered that he was the king of the Western Merchants, so he still had to go.

Upon arriving at the Zhengming Hall, Emperor Bing not only met the Prime Minister and the General, but also another person.

Upon seeing that person, his entire body trembled, and his eyes quickly turned cold.

[Luck value +1000, +1, +1, +1, +1...]

Emperor Bing felt uncomfortable upon seeing this person.

I felt so uncomfortable that I selectively ignored the mechanical sounds in my head.

He sat down in the seat of honor, looked at the man kneeling on the ground to pay his respects, and spoke in a cryptic tone.

"Mr. Gongsun, you haven't left yet?"

The Prime Minister's face immediately turned awkward.

As Hua Rong's father, he naturally knew about Hua Rong and Gongsun Ming's past.

He knew that the king would feel uncomfortable seeing Gongsun Ming, which was only natural.

But I still didn't expect the king to be so impolite.

Gongsun Ming, however, remained calm and composed.

He knelt, but his back was straight.

She raised her head, glanced at Di Bing, and then lowered her eyes again.

"This humble subject has not yet reported to His Majesty the words of Marquis Weiwu."

"Oh."

Di Bing gave a cold laugh.

"It has been two months since the mourning period ended, and Mr. Gongsun has only come to the palace today. Does he not care about Marquis Weiwu, or does he not take me seriously?"

As he finished speaking, Di Bing's voice suddenly rose.

Gongsun Ming remained neither humble nor arrogant: "I am a native of Lutai. After leaving Lutai for three years, I am returning to my hometown. I always think of my old friends. However, old friends are fickle, so I can only revisit the old place."

Emperor Bing narrowed his eyes. In that instant, the entire Zhengming Hall was in a state of low pressure.
