Emperor Fengzhao felt that if it were him, even with the immortal's decree, he wouldn't have cooperated so well. Some of the immortal's ideas were beyond his comprehension, and as an emperor, he wouldn't follow in the immortal's footsteps out of fear.
His son, however, was different. His following of the immortals was not blind, but rather a decision made after careful consideration, and he applied it to the construction of his fiefdom according to the actual situation.
Such a person is not only a qualified successor, but also a qualified emperor.
Emperor Fengzhao, who had some initial concerns, made up his mind at this moment.
"Ding! Completely change the character's fate, trigger a hidden quest, obtain the achievement 'The protagonist's nemesis,' and receive rewards such as inn upgrade progress and a large increase in luck value."
An Ge was lounging around like a couch potato when she heard the system notification and immediately sat up. "What? There's a hidden quest? Wait, that's not the point. How did I change the character's fate?"
As she spoke, she quickly opened the panel.
"The protagonist's nemesis; those who wear it can ignore the influence of fate."
An Ge's eyes lit up; this was a good thing. Although the person destined for this plane didn't seem to have any effect on her, Xiao Qi had said that because this was a lower-level plane, the Heavenly Dao had little influence on her.
In this vast world, there are countless people with great fortune. If one were to reach a higher plane in the future, it would be difficult to guarantee that one would not be implicated by those with great fortune.
With this title, she was finally able to completely distance herself from the situation.
Besides the title, the large amount of luck also delighted her. Her luck hadn't changed for a long time since the reputation shop had stopped stocking new items.
She knew better than anyone the benefits of having a high luck stat. She used to be unlucky, but since increasing her luck, she's almost become lucky.
"How come I suddenly have this achievement? If we're talking about changing people's fates, haven't I already changed the fates of quite a few people?"
Xiao Qi seemed to still be in a daze from the surprise. When he heard An Ge's question, his tiger face almost turned into a flower. "Master is too amazing. This achievement is not easy to obtain. Every plane has people of destiny recognized by the Heavenly Dao. Under normal circumstances, if you directly confront someone of destiny, even if you are a chosen one, you will be punished."
In other words, the consequences of our master's proactive attack on Shi Xinyi and Feng Jingchi are beyond our control. Even if they are people of good fortune from a lower plane, our master will still suffer some losses.
If by changing the minds of some people, the fate of a destined person can be completely altered, a new destined person will be born. This achievement, Master, represents the birth of this new destined person.
After listening to Xiao Qi's explanation, An Ge suddenly realized, "So, Kang Wang and Shi Xinyi have been stripped of their protagonist aura just like that? I didn't do anything." Although she didn't like the two of them, as long as they didn't provoke her, she never thought of dealing with them.
But the achievement was indeed accomplished. What could be the reason for this?
Suddenly, An Ge's eyes lit up. What Prince Kang wanted most was the throne. If things went according to plan, he and Shi Xinyi would achieve their wish and become emperor and empress. The only thing that could make their rise to power hopeless was the throne.
"Tsk tsk, the big treasury has finally gotten what it wanted." An Ge was also happy for Feng Jinghan. Both publicly and privately, it was a good thing that Feng Jinghan could become the crown prince.
Calming down, An Ge suddenly remembered the special event hanging over her head. She opened the task list and saw that the special event was already 5% complete!
"It seems this mission is related to the throne." An Ge felt confident after seeing the mission's progress. The mission had just changed after Emperor Feng Zhao had decided on his heir, which meant that Emperor Feng Zhao's life was related to the selection of an heir.
The most likely connection to this matter is only King Kang and the forces behind him.
The idea had barely formed in An Ge's mind when she saw the mission progress bar advance another step, which undoubtedly confirmed her idea.
Although Feng Jingchi has lost his protagonist aura, even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse; his luck is stronger than that of ordinary people, not to mention he has a former woman of destiny. Their combined power is far more than just the sum of its parts.
The reason it's "in the past" is because the two are now intertwined; if one falls from grace, the other will also be implicated.
Upon hearing Xiao Qi's words, An Ge momentarily mourned for Shi Xinyi. Then she thought that Shi Xinyi's misfortune wasn't entirely undeserved; while the woman and man of destiny were likely one, there was always the possibility that one could escape unscathed.
If Shi Xinyi had no ambition and hadn't actively tried to get close to Feng Jingchi, she wouldn't have lost her protagonist status.
Every cause has its effect. Shi Xinyi being disqualified is also her own fault.
Now that the direction has been determined, An Ge decided to find some time to have a good discussion with Feng Jinghan.
In the next two months, unless Emperor Feng Zhao stays within the inn's area, there is still a possibility of encountering danger.
Emperor Fengzhao, who had been troubled by the matter of choosing an heir, was in a great mood at the moment. The two strolled to the library and saw many scholars in long robes coming and going.
"This library is good. Most aristocratic families don't make their collections public, which is detrimental to the development of the Great Ye Kingdom. It would be great if there were libraries like this in other places as well."
"My son is preparing to issue an order to build libraries in other parts of Huaixi City as well. Many people copy books in the libraries, and with the advent of paper, I believe that reading will no longer be limited in the future."
Emperor Fengzhao nodded in satisfaction. His son had done a good job, and he had indeed made the right choice.
Upon entering the library, even the well-traveled Emperor Feng Zhao and the mentally prepared Feng Jinghan were stunned. Rows upon rows of bookshelves were filled with books, even more abundant than those in the imperial library.
Many long tables were placed next to the bookshelves, and almost every table was occupied. Judging from their attire, many of them were not scholars, and there were some women among them.
They were calm and composed, reading their books with great eagerness. The people around them seemed to have gotten used to this scene. No one made a sound; all that could be heard was the rustling of pages turning.
Emperor Feng Zhao had already heard many stories of the heroic deeds of the women of Huai Xi City from Feng Jing Han. Seeing this scene, he was both surprised and gratified. He realized that his previous understanding had been too limited. Just as the immortal had said, if women were given a stage, they could hold up half the sky.
Thinking of this, Emperor Fengzhao suddenly felt a pang of jealousy towards his son.
This kid is so lucky! He's become friends with an immortal and can often listen to the immortal's voice. Look at his enlightenment now, he's much better than his previous dull-witted self.
From now on, there will finally be someone to share the burden of national affairs with him, and he will also listen carefully to the immortal's teachings at the inn.
As a result, Emperor Fengzhao decided to extend his stay at the inn once again.
