Zuan's heart skipped a beat, and he began to filter through the various suspects in his mind.
Zhu Xie Chixin? No, he's been the emperor's confidant for years. Even if there were suspicions, it wouldn't be directed at him.
A personal eunuch? No, that's not right either. If they really suspected them, they could just have someone torture them severely. There was no need to specifically ask a top-notch envoy like me to investigate the case.
That leaves only a few Imperial Guard generals...
He was completely confused before, but after learning from the Empress that Cheng Xiong was a member of the Qi King's faction, many of his doubts were resolved.
“It’s Cheng Xiong!” Zu An blurted out.
Yun Jianyue nodded, looking like a promising student: "That's right. Due to historical reasons, Prince Qi has a lot of influence in the army. Not only in the local armies, but he also has people in the palace. If you were the emperor, would you feel comfortable letting such a crucial position as the Left Guard General be controlled by Prince Qi's faction?"
“Of course not,” Zuan said excitedly, following the reasoning, “This time the assassin has been found to be related to Prince Qi... Well, even if the assassin has nothing to do with Prince Qi, the emperor will not let go of such a good opportunity. He will naturally push the blame onto Prince Qi and use this as an excuse to purge the people in Prince Qi’s faction.”
No wonder Yun Jianyue was so confident, even if her identity was exposed, because she was certain that the emperor would follow their plan and take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cut off Prince Qi's wings. This was not a conspiracy, but a naked and open scheme, so she was not afraid of being seen through at all.
He glanced at Yun Jianyue with a complicated expression: "Sister Leader, you are truly insidious."
"Thank you for the compliment." Yun Jianyue's eyes were full of pride. "You're not bad either."
"So what should I do next?" Zuan asked. With such a cunning queen around, why bother thinking?
Yun Jianyue fell into deep thought, her originally beautiful face becoming extremely solemn as she pondered.
After a moment, she said, "You need to go see Zhu Xie Chixin first. As the commander of the Embroidered Robe Envoys, he has an obligation to stand up for his subordinates when they are bullied. Moreover, he is the emperor's confidant and will most likely cooperate with the emperor to get rid of Cheng Xiong, so he will definitely be a great help to you. However, there is a problem: this man is always suspicious. You need to think about how to deal with his questioning before you go to him. After you make contact with him, then you..."
Zuan was initially overwhelmed, but after her meticulous analysis, he suddenly understood. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Whoever marries you in the future will have gained a wise and capable wife, just like Zhuge Liang!"
"Who is Zhuge?" Yun Jianyue frowned, then snorted, "Why should I get married? Even if I wanted a man, I could just take a few male concubines. Is there any man in the world worth marrying?"
Zu An's expression was strange, and after a long while, he finally exhaled and said, "The sect leader is so domineering!"
Yun Jianyue raised an eyebrow, then turned around haughtily and started fiddling with her hammock, clearly unwilling to share a bed with this guy again that night.
Zu An then went out to find Zhu Xie Chixin. After having such a conflict with Cheng Xiong, it would be illogical for an Embroidered Robe Envoy not to go to his boss and complain.
However, halfway there, he suddenly had a sudden whim. It seemed like he hadn't participated in a lottery in a long time. The palace was treacherous and fraught with danger, so it would be better to have more ways to protect himself.
So he went to a secluded spot and summoned the rage system.
I haven't watched it for a while, and before I knew it, I had accumulated quite a bit of anger.
He started the lottery directly. At first, he would wash his face and pray before the lottery, but now he's become numb to it after doing it so many times and is too lazy to bother with those fancy things.
"Thank you for participating... Thank you for participating... Spirit Fruit... Thank you for participating..."
Huh, we still don't have the tiger tally?
After looking at the list, Zuan was a little disappointed. He had drawn Daji with the Tiger Talisman. Although Daji's current strength was only at the peak of the fourth rank, her greatest use was that she could resonate with the fire element and cultivate and use fire-type techniques.
If I could draw a Valkyrie from another element, I would have an additional element's abilities.
Just as he was feeling disappointed, Zuan suddenly had a bright idea. He noticed that the keyboard cursor was on the "J" key. Unfortunately, this lottery was being drawn in batches, and two words flashed across the screen, which he couldn't see clearly at all.
After waiting for the lottery to finish, he found on the screen that he had won a skill and 280 Spirit Fruits.
He eagerly looked at the skill description.
Keyboard, please!
Skill Description: As a keyboard warrior, typing is the core skill. When encountering injustice, a single keystroke unleashes passionate words, demonstrating that words can have legal force.
With this skill, what you say will become reality.
Note that using this skill consumes the power of your soul. Do not boast unconditionally. The more you boast, the greater the backlash will be half an hour later, causing a severe impact on your soul.
Only those above the Grandmaster level, with a stable soul, can use it relatively freely.
Remember, if you boast too much, even a grandmaster's soul cannot withstand it, and before the effect of your words is realized, your soul will be scattered on the spot.
As a keyboard warrior, you should be aware that you can brag wildly behind a computer screen, but when you're face to face, you have to be extra careful when you brag!
After reading this explanation, Zuan was completely dumbfounded.
The keyboard warrior's words become law; what an incredible skill! This is the ultimate form of a keyboard warrior!
As for the limitations, they are understandable. If someone were to boast about creating something out of nothing, they would probably be reduced to ashes the moment the thought crossed their mind.
