Chapter 254 Eliminate the Weeds at the Root, Leave No Trouble for the Future



"Besides, the mission is for both of us. You can earn points just by eating melon seeds, isn't that great!"

The system thought about it and realized it made sense. Besides, their characters were supposed to be gods descending to earth to undergo tribulations, and the host was too approachable. Doing too much would indeed be inappropriate.

"This is fine as it is," he immediately flattered, "Host, the emperor and all the officials are your beasts of burden, you're so awesome!"

Yue Fuguang tilted her head back, put her hands on her hips and said arrogantly, "That's right, it doesn't matter who I work for, the most important thing is that I pay more!"

Also, the map you posted today is much clearer than the one from the Potato Sacrifice incident. How come your data has recovered a bit?

[Host, it's not data recovery, I've upgraded again!]

"It's been upgraded! Why didn't you tell me sooner? Tell me what new features it has."

She played with the new feature that showed merits and fortune for a while, and after looking at all the civil and military officials, she was already tired of it.

The "Gossip System" can reach up to 300 people within a kilometer. The "Merit System" displays an individual's specific merit value.

It's much more accurate than the level three system where you could only see the colors of merit and fortune.

Most importantly, it now has a live streaming function! Although there are some limitations to this live streaming feature, it's better to have it than not!

Not bad, not bad. For a system with disabilities, new features are added with each upgrade. I'm already very satisfied!

The number of people she could confide in increased from 150 to 300, more than doubling. This means she can develop even more followers for big events in the future!

As for live streaming, I can show off a bit and give this backward ancient person a little shock!

The next day, after finishing the morning classes under the rising sun and moon, I ate lunch and prepared to take a short rest.

Then the Crown Prince walked in.

"Your Highness, instead of preparing for your wedding, why do you have time to come to the Hongwen Academy?"

Although the Ministry of Rites was in charge of the procedures for the Crown Prince's wedding, the groom-to-be still had to learn the wedding ceremony.

After all, it's their first time getting married, and they have no experience.

The last time such a grand event was held in the Dayan Dynasty was when his parents got married. He didn't have the chance to witness it in person, so he had to learn how to do it!

The Crown Prince smiled and said, "It's raining today, so the afternoon horse riding lesson is canceled. I happen to have some free time, so I've come to invite the Junior Tutor to take a stroll through Father Emperor's private treasury."

Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, not to mention Yue Fuguang, all the princes, princesses, and their companions around him gasped in shock.

Where to go shopping?

His Majesty's private treasury!

Is that a place anyone can go?

The crown prince also used the word "逛" (guàng), which was very clever.

Yue Fuguang stood up, told her two older sisters to return to the mansion first, and then said to the Crown Prince, "Alright, let's go see what good things His Majesty has hidden."

Everyone was a little confused by her relaxed demeanor, as if she were strolling in her own backyard!

These two are truly a case of one daring to speak and the other daring to believe!

Does His Majesty know that you've gone to the private treasury?

Emperor Mingxi: I didn't know that this son who is biased towards outsiders could get in?

He would never admit that, in order not to be looked down upon by his two ancestors, he had secretly ordered Eunuch Qian to put some of his favorite treasures into his private treasury yesterday to save face.

【Master, what's the point of browsing a mortal's private treasury? Without immortal herbs, spiritual materials, precious artifacts, or elixirs, it's useless to take them!】

"Little Bead, I'm just a normal little girl now, and I don't like these things. Don't you find that strange?"

Xie Zhiyan: I'm so sorry to have wronged my two ancestors!

[Master, should we tell the Crown Prince and the Emperor that Shen Dongxue is Luo Xue's daughter?]

"Of course we should tell her, otherwise when Feng Yang finds out about Dong Xue's existence, he will definitely take action against her in order to let his grandson inherit Luoxia Manor."

I don't want to trouble myself with it, so the imperial court will have to keep an eye on Luoxia Manor."

Xie Zhiyan silently kept it in mind and understood. He would give instructions to have someone keep an eye on the Junior Tutor.

[Does the master intend to use the emperor to get rid of Feng Yang?]

"Otherwise, if we kill them all at once, the other strongholds of Fengyu Pavilion in Dayan wouldn't be able to be completely eradicated by Luo Feng and Luo Yu alone."

[Does Luo Feng, a young master of the sect, have any strongholds he doesn't know about?]

"Feng Yang will definitely have a backup plan, but how much he can uncover depends on Wei Ping and Cai Xian's interrogation techniques."

"Little Bead, can you pinpoint where Feng Yang is hiding right now?"

[Master, Feng Yang is currently hiding at Fahua Temple, a hundred miles outside the capital. You would never guess his current identity.]

Yue Fuguang's lips curled into a smile. "I guess he's either the abbot, the gatekeeper of the scripture pavilion, or some inconspicuous sweeping monk."

He's here! He's here! What a classic scene!

Master, you've really guessed wrong this time! Feng Yang is neither a sweeping monk nor a gatekeeper of the scripture pavilion.

He is now just an ordinary elderly lay Buddhist living in a temple, devoted to Buddhism.

However, the abbot of Fahua Temple is his left protector, and the gatekeeper of the Sutra Repository is his right protector.

The sweeping monk was his bodyguard with a sword.

They weren't looking at the scriptures inside, but rather at the vast treasures hidden in the secret chamber beneath the scripture pavilion—the spoils of years of murder and robbery amassed by the Wind and Rain Pavilion.

Xie Zhiyan nodded secretly, noting that he had noted everything down. After leaving the private treasury, he notified Ministers Wei Ping and Cai Xuan to arrest the people.

Just say that Luo Feng confessed. Otherwise, if the young master reminds them and Feng Yang runs away when he sees the situation is not good, it will be difficult to catch him!

Xie Zhiyan was thinking about how to capture people without alerting the people in the temple, while Yue Fuguang also chatted with the system about other things.

[Host, what should we do with Luo Feng's two children?]

"If it were me, I would still prefer the approach taken in my hometown: nip it in the bud and eliminate any future troubles. After all, the story of the Orphan of Zhao is enough."

How could you be so heartless? Have you forgotten how you died?

"How can that be the same? I've always believed in the saying, 'Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts.' These two children have always been raised by Feng Yang and his daughter."

They're actually from the Western Qiang region. Besides, didn't you check that these two people's lives are worth eight hundred in the system taskbar?

"A life worth 800 points—you don't even need to look at the original history to know he deserves to die!"

The phrase "moonlight floats on the sky" left even the upgraded 07 system, which had a temporary advantage due to its merit system, speechless.

The two arrived at the entrance of the private vault.

From the outside, it looks like a tall and sturdy house with about eight or nine rooms.

The walls were thicker than other parts of the wall, and looked very new with a dusty gray finish, probably because they had been coated with cement.

The gate was three meters high, and it was impossible to tell what kind of wood it was made of. It gave people a very solid feeling. A huge iron lock hung on it, and the windows were also made of iron bars.

As for security, there are two guards at the entrance and guards at the surrounding intersections.

There are also two patrol teams of guards, each with ten men.

As soon as the two stood at the door, two junior officials in green robes ran over. After checking the warrant Xie Zhiyan had given him, they signaled another official to help him open the warehouse door.

"These two minor officials in green robes, who are able to guard the emperor's storeroom, must be people whom Emperor Mingxi trusts very much."

[Isn't it because the emperor trusts him? Unfortunately, the emperor's blindness remains a consistent weakness.]
