Chapter 228 New Magical Power
The expressions of the emperor and others instantly became serious. This was not just cheating, it had risen to treason.
The doctor from the Secretariat in the next room was dumbfounded. He thought the news a minute ago was bad enough, but now he heard that, my goodness, all nine members of his family were in danger!
Yuan Ruan: [King Xin of Qin?! The son that the previous emperor once valued, the one who led troops into the palace? Wait, Tong'er, you are not seeing things. Shouldn't this man's eldest son be named Qi?]
System: [He changed his name! Qin Fu, swore to change back to his real name after usurping the throne.]
Yuan Ruan: […Then this person will be Qin Fu until his death. So Mr. Zhou is Qin Fu's spy?]
The doctor in the Secretariat was going crazy after hearing this: "Little Imperial Master, why are you getting more and more serious? My sister must have been tricked and implicated. She doesn't understand! What if His Majesty takes the initiative when you say this?"
In a hurry, the doctor from the Secretariat rushed out.
Just before he was about to rush out to speak, Concubine Gao's father first grabbed him and knocked him down, then the chancellor of the capital city rushed over and held down his flailing limbs, and someone behind him blocked his mouth with a cloth.
System: [She is not a meticulous worker. She is eager for quick success and is dragged into the abyss.]
The suppressed doctor of the Secretariat had a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Yuanruan: [Tell me more about it.]
System: [Not long after entering the palace, Concubine Zhou played tricks and revealed her true colors. Your brother didn't like her and never touched her, so she held a grudge against your brother. One time, Qin Fu pretended to be a palace guard and entered the palace to discuss important matters with the male queen mother. Before leaving, he was discovered. Qin Fu happened to hide in Concubine Zhou's chamber. Concubine Zhou was doing something... Qin Fu couldn't control himself and slept with her.]
Yuanruan was full of mist: [Ah? Is Qin Fu okay? He even slept with concubines while on the run? Even wild animals know to seek benefits and avoid harm. Is this a romantic act that can make one die under the peony flowers and become a ghost? ]
System: [So Ah Ruan, you should stay away from men. When men get impulsive, they are worse than beasts.]
The Emperor and others: ...
Rongpin took Qiyue's hand with deep conviction and looked at her worriedly.
Qi Yue glanced at Rongpin speechlessly and broke the chopsticks with one hand. Everything was said without words.
Yuan Ruan: [Uh, you're such a map cannon... Okay, let's get back to the point. What happened next? Is Mr. Zhou threatened by the eldest son of King Xin of Qin? ]
System: [What threats? I told you before. Lady Zhou hated your brother. After Qin Fu slept with her, she suddenly had a strange idea and thought this was a chance for revenge. So, she threatened Qin Fu first.]
The spectators almost sprained their backs: ???
threat?
The noble Zhou threatened Qin Fu first? Is that the opposite?
Yuan Ruan was also puzzled: [Tong'er, you said the wrong name. Wasn't it Qin Fu who wanted to rebel? Why did the noble Zhou threaten him? ]
System: [I didn't say anything against it. The noble Zhou wanted to borrow sperm to have a child, so that your brother could raise someone else's child, and maybe even let that child ascend the throne. She was happy, and felt that she had successfully taken revenge.]
Yuan Ruan's pupils trembled: [What kind of revenge is this? Isn't this just a fool seeking his own death?! ]
The expressions of the people eating melons were also dull: ...
What do you want, you idiot?! Just because the emperor doesn't like you, you want to hurt the enemy 100 times and yourself 10,000 times?!
The doctor from the Secretariat had a look of complete death in his eyes. People poked him several times, but he just lay limp on the ground without moving.
System: [I don't know. There are so many people in the world, and there are always some with eccentric personalities. Qin Fu originally planned to kill Noble Zhou, but was shocked after hearing the other party's revenge plan. He also thought this was a perfect back-up plan, and then Qin Fu helped Noble Zhou hide. When Noble Zhou was pregnant, he used his connections to let your brother turn over Noble Zhou's card. The date was almost right, so no one suspected it.]
Yuan Ruan: [Brother is really a tool dad, so miserable. What about his appearance? Did no one notice? ]
System: [Qin Fu is your brother's nephew. They are related by blood. It is normal for the children to look alike.]
The emperor's face turned livid: I couldn't stand it any more! But he had to force himself to listen.
The prince pinched his brows: It's a double betrayal, the contrast comfort method I thought of before is no longer useful.
Yuan Ruan: [Where is this Qin Fu? Can we find him? ]
System: [That guy has no fixed place to stay, and his activities are too erratic, so it's hard to find him. But next month, he will come to discuss the matter with the Queen Mother. Ah Ruan, I will observe the Queen Mother's melons at that time, and you can find a way to reveal it to your brother.]
Yuan Ruan patted his chest and said, "Okay. We should visit the Queen Mother more often during this time. But we still have to protect my brother first. These twelve hours are dangerous."
System: [Yes. We must remain vigilant. Damn, Ah Ruan, look up...]
As the system exploded, everyone looked up.
Suddenly, a lot of fish jumped out of the stream of the banquet. They were like carps jumping out of the dragon gate, messing up the banquet plates, causing the nearby concubines and eunuchs to scream in surprise and avoid them.
In the panic, several people were caught off guard and fell down, sitting heavily in the middle of the gift boxes that the concubines gave to Yuan Ruan.
One of the boxes with a big red lock was smashed and flew high. When it flew very close to the emperor, the prince tried to open it with the scabbard of his sword, but the red lock suddenly broke, and in an instant, the powder inside the box scattered out.
Yuan Ruan was stunned: [This plot murder is really out of the ordinary. In order to make the powder fall on my brother, he really did everything he could. ]
System: [Ah Ruan, stop sighing. When the powder comes, the bugs will come too! ]
The emperor was about to draw out his outer robe to cover himself, but at that moment the empress threw herself on him, covering his exposed skin tightly to prevent the powder from falling on his skin.
Crowd: !!!
System: [Aruan, run. The plot killer will definitely add bugs to those bugs. ]
Yuanruan: [Don’t run.]
Yuanruan's chubby face was extremely serious, and he said in a milky voice: "Father, let them go!"
The emperor was stunned.
Yuan Ruan made a heart shape with his fingers, and a thunder exploded in the sky, causing people to exclaim in surprise. Yuan Ruan then shouted, "There is a disaster, a plague of insects, too many people, bad luck!"
The prince, who was blamed the most, was the first to react and ordered everyone to leave. Many concubines stood up, and some looked at the emperor anxiously. Fortunately, the emperor reacted quickly and immediately ordered the chief eunuch to take everyone away.
Just when most of the people had left, there was a sudden sound of giggling from outside.
Then, the maids screamed, "Bugs!" "So many bugs!"
System explosion: [Why are there so many! This plot-killing is really shameless. The powder won't disappear in a short time. Ah Ruan, run quickly. You can dodge it...]
Yuanruan said nothing.
All she could think about was how to save the situation.
She tried hard to aim at the emperor's left and right and kept making a heart shape with her hands.
There was a flash of lightning and fire all around the emperor, and the insects were instantly burnt to a crisp, but many of them still escaped and flew over.
Yuan Ruan took a deep breath: [No. This lightning is too weak. Tong'er, make another payment and prepare to consume points to activate the National Games Experience Card...]
At this moment, the system: [Alright. I'll pay the bill... Oh, no need to pay the bill. Ah Ruan! A good man's national destiny mission has been completed. I got five points. Can you believe this mother of the Shi family...]
Yuanruan interrupted the system: [We'll talk about the rest later. ]
She calculated that with five points, the National Fortune Experience Card would not last long, and it would definitely not last 12 hours. It would be better to take a gamble first and then make a profit if the new magical power didn't work.
So she said: [Five points, I remember it can trigger new magical powers, right?]
System: [Okay. Do you want to open it? Need confirmation from Ahsoft.]
Yuan Ruan looked at the densely packed insects: [Click, click, click! Why are there so many insects? They are almost as terrifying as the scarabs and gnats in the pyramid. ]
System: [Okay, I opened it. But... uh. I feel like this magical power is useless.]
Yuanruan's heart tensed: [What is it? ]
System: [Special fragrance.]
