Chapter 23: System operation bugs appear. Divine punishment is coming, choose a master to succeed...
The warm afternoon sun shines on the new branches. Although the furnishings in the house are a bit old, they have everything you need.
The twins looked at everything curiously, and when the deer saw the young sprouts outside the window, a golden light flashed in her eyes.
"Heaven's punishment has come, and a master will be chosen to succeed him."
"The Mysterious Lady Phoenix's destiny, the new master has appeared."
Xiao Wu covered Xiaolu's mouth with his hand, looked around in panic and fear, and let go after making sure that no one was eavesdropping.
After saying this, Xiaolu stood there in a daze, and after a while she came back to normal. She blinked in confusion, not understanding why her brother covered her mouth.
Xiao Wu lowered his voice and asked, "Sister, who do you think it is?"
The little deer was puzzled, but shook his head honestly: "I don't know, I listen to my brother."
"Whoever my brother chooses, I will choose."
Xiao Wu was silent. He didn't know either. Without any memory, he didn't know why his sister was like this. Xiao Wu understood that the memories he and his sister had lost were very important, and what he was sure of was that they didn't fall off the cliff accidentally.
"What are you two doing standing in there?" Qin Yuqing stood at the door, looking at the twins with different expressions, and then asked.
"No, nothing." Xiao Wu replied stutteringly.
He can't even lie, and the words "I have a problem" are almost written on his face.
Qin Yuqing did not continue to ask. Everyone has secrets, and their indentures were in her hands. As long as they were still in the Great Yin Dynasty, they would never escape from her grasp, so she was not afraid of them betraying her.
"It's okay, just tell me when you want to." Qin Yuqing waved his hand, sat down on the swing in the yard, and stared at the square sky in a daze.
Chun Tao walked in with two sets of clothes and placed them on the table. She said, "These are the clothes that the princess prepared for you. Put them on and follow the princess in. I'll take you out."
"Yes, thank you, Princess." Xiao Wu looked at Qin Yuqing and shouted loudly.
Qin Yuqing waved her hand gracefully. She was surprised to find that the leaves were sprouting new buds. Spring was coming, and the imperial examination must be coming soon.
So, in a while, the capital will be filled with people from all over the world, and there will surely be new things to eat.
"Princess, change."
"Yeah." Qin Yuqing turned her head and took a look. Although she already knew that the twins were very good-looking, she didn't expect that they were even more beautiful than some popular stars today.
The most important thing is that she sensed divinity in Xiaolu, a feeling that was not obvious in Xiaowu.
These two pairs of twins are definitely not just Arhan's people. She has already instructed Chuntao to investigate the twins. Lu Jingchuan's network of contacts is currently wider than hers.
After the imperial examination is over, Park Qinghe and the twins will be formally trained. We can't just eat for free, right?
"Follow me closely." Qin Yuqing led the way, and the twins and Chuntao followed behind her.
There was a record in the original book that a concubine in the cold palace suddenly suffered from hysteria and chiseled the palace wall with a dagger like a madman every day.
"I want to take my sister out of the palace walls and dig a new path for her."
She worked tirelessly day after day, starting with clear enunciation and ending with her mouth slightly open but unable to utter a word. Finally, she chiseled a hole the size of a dog in the palace wall, smiled with satisfaction, then returned to the bed and closed her eyes.
There was a line of words written in blood on the palace wall. It is said that the first person to discover it was the maid who delivered food to the concubine. When she saw the line of words, the red words began to bleed, so that the subsequent palace servants did not dare to fill it in.
Qin Yuqing took the twins around in twists and turns. She kept looking back, and after making sure that no one was following her, she turned around and went straight into the cold palace.
After reaching the wall, Qin Yuqing looked at the marks that had faded a little, but there were still traces left. Qin Yuqing reached out and touched the line of words.
The person who carved the words used a sharp object to carve them into the palace wall with great force, and then poured blood into it, leaving behind lasting red words and a scene of words dripping with blood.
They all said it was a rumor, so there must be some exaggeration. This palace maid either saw the words still dripping with blood, or she was watching what the concubine did in secret.
"To die unjustly, to die with eyes open." Qin Yuqing recited these eight characters clearly. For a moment, she seemed to see the strong and lingering resentment of the owner of the engraved characters, and a picture appeared in front of Qin Yuqing.
She laughed crazily, looking at the completed palace wall. She didn't know what she remembered, or maybe her consciousness suddenly became clear for a moment. She might be full of resentment, or she might be venting for someone.
"I will die unjustly!" She carved each word vigorously, and if one time was not enough, she would do it again. "I will die with my eyes open!"
After finishing writing, she took a few steps back, with a look of confusion and helplessness in her eyes, as if she didn't know why she carved this.
While she was thinking, the dagger in her hand accidentally slipped away, leaving a large wound on her finger. She stared blankly at the wound, then at the scene before her. She had been following the rules all her life, trapped in a small courtyard. Suddenly, she found a way to breathe. She wanted to go crazy once, maybe for herself. Maybe for others.
So she picked up the dagger again, approached the engraved words, placed her arm above them, and kept groping for the fonts. Her laughter gradually became more crazy and distorted.
The laughter was accompanied by fonts that gradually turned red, like a sharp dagger, cutting through the shackles for her or the people she cared about, struggling to tear apart the cage of imprisonment.
Finally, the crazy concubine looked at her work with satisfaction, turned around and left the place.
【A time-space disorder has been detected, and emergency repairs are being carried out.】
"?"
[Detected that this location is the host's choice, the system has no permission to modify it, and the repair failed. ]
“???”
[A bug has been detected in the system, and emergency mode is now activated.]
“???”
A sharp electronic sound was broadcasting rapidly in Qin Yuqing's mind. The picture in front of him began to distort and kept replaying. The pictures of people began to overlap, and many concubines appeared.
[The system uses forced repair methods to send the host and a group of NPCs to the appropriate path first.]
Without giving Qin Yuqing a chance to react, a strong white light flashed, and Qin Yuqing, the twins and Chuntao appeared on a secluded and narrow road.
"Princess, which way is she going next?" Chuntao suddenly came to her senses and asked, as if she had been restarted.
"How did we leave the palace?" Qin Yuqing asked Chuntao.
Although Chuntao didn't understand why the princess asked this, she still answered honestly. Anyway, her princess always asked some strange questions and said some strange things recently.
"It was you, Princess, who took this servant and these two out of the cold palace and climbed over the wall."
Qin Yuqing nodded, looked at Xiao Wu and Xiao Lu behind him, and asked again: "How did we leave the palace?"
Xiao Wu still replied sullenly: "Cold Palace, climbing over the wall."
There was the same confusion in Xiaolu's lively eyes as Chuntao's. She rolled her eyes, as if she had thought of some possibility, and spoke very quickly.
"Don't worry, Princess. The indentures of my brother and I are in your hands. We won't do anything that would threaten you."
Qin Yuqing shook her head. It seemed that she was the only one with complete memories.
The cold palace is still the cold palace, but crawling through a dog hole has become climbing over a wall.
Is this how the system works?
"Where exactly is this system?"
[I repeat this once again.]
[This is the novel world "The Empress." Due to numerous complaints from real-world readers regarding the poor content and the collapse of the heroine's image, the host is now required to modify the original plot and complete the system quest with the primary goal of becoming the empress before returning to the real world.]
[Host, please concentrate on the mission. If you ask again, your existence will be directly erased.]
Are you in a hurry?
Qin Yuqing raised her eyebrows. Her life was now in the hands of this system, so it was not a good idea to confront it head-on.
"Okay, calm down and don't let yourself get so angry that you cause a bug."
【......】
【Host, take care of yourself. 】
After that, the system fell silent.
This is the word her best friend keeps repeating, what is it called?
Break defense.
Qin Yuqing mocked mercilessly in her heart, but thanks to the system, the feeling of being monitored in the harem disappeared.
"Walk."
The group turned left and right in the alleys and appeared in a remote suburb, with only a lonely house not far away.
"Miss, where is this?" Chuntao opened her eyes wide in shock and asked in confusion.
"This is what my mother...Chen Cairen left for me." This residence was where she lived after receiving the transmitted plot. During the third wave of assassinations, when she was searching for information about Park Qinghe in the plot, she suddenly discovered that this information was what Chen Cairen said to the original heroine before she was about to die.
Chuntao looked at Qin Yuqing's back, her eyes gradually turned red and her gaze became completely firm.
"Princess, this time I will definitely protect you."
Qin Yuqing pushed open the door and what caught his eye was the strong...abdominal muscles.
"How dare you!" Chun Tao rushed over and blocked Qin Yuqing's eyes. Then she said quickly, "It's a bright and clear world, in broad daylight, and you're so disheveled. How can you behave like that?"
Park Qinghe didn't expect Qin Yuqing to come. He was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said with a sly smile: "I haven't blamed Her Royal Highness for not saying hello. How come Her Royal Highness hasn't seen her before? I guess it's because Her Royal Highness has lived in the deep palace for a long time. If a child sees her, she will get stye."
Qin Yuqing rolled her eyes, took Chuntao's hand, and saw that Pu Qinghe had put on a simple coat. She said straight to the point: "Please help me take care of these two children."
Pu Qinghe was tidying up his clothes. Hearing this, he said without looking up, "Why, I have to be a wet nurse, taking care of one and two more. Isn't it too much for Her Highness the Princess?"
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Lu, come here." Qin Yuqing looked at the two children hiding outside and waved, "Come in first. This will be your home from now on."
After tidying up his clothes, Park Qinghe raised his head with a wicked smile: "Princess, this house has become the home of many people... No!"
The twins stood obediently in front of Park Qinghe. The younger sister hid behind her brother in fear and whispered, "Strange uncle."
Pu Qinghe looked at Qin Yuqing in shock and said, "Where did you find these two children?"
It was obvious that she was very shocked, and she no longer called Qin Yuqing "Her Royal Highness" in a sarcastic tone.
"At the auction." Qin Yuqing briefly recounted the past.
"I'm not saying this, but your luck is incredible."
"What do you mean?"
"They are indeed Alhan's twins, but they are the most special pair." Park Qinghe gestured for everyone to sit down and continued.
"They are the heirs of the gods."
