Chapter 393: The Sixth Mission Unlocked (Bonus Chapter)
The man slightly curled the corners of his lips.
Although Di Jingling had never heard of the term "warm man," she could roughly understand what it meant.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have unlocked the sixth romance mission.]
[...Could you please stop spoiling the mood?]
Xiao Tang was so angry she wanted to jump up and down.
She really wanted to kill this damn system.
What beautiful scenery, what a wonderful atmosphere, what a beautiful artistic conception!
The villain looked like he was about to kiss her...
Under the icy snow, tents were scattered across the snow-covered ground, a scene perfectly suited for a tender kiss...
Who knew, this thing would suddenly appear.
The system seemed oblivious to any wrongdoing and quickly assigned the sixth romance task: [Please complete the vows of eternal love made atop the snow-capped mountain within two days to complete the task.]
Xiao Tang: [...]
She looked up at the distant, towering snow-capped mountains.
[You want me to climb a mountain? Or a snow-covered mountain? To reach the top and yell, "My husband, I love you to death!"?]
System: [That's roughly the process...]
Xiao Tang smiled sinisterly and threw the little pink bundle of fur, which was trying to keep warm, onto the snow.
Glug glug...
The pink dumpling rolled around for quite a while before stopping.
It looked at Xiao Tang with a pitiful expression: "Host, why did you throw me away?"
Xiao Tang sneered: "Not only am I going to throw you away, I'm going to stomp on you!"
The little pink dumpling was so scared it peed its pants and chose to escape into the snow.
Before leaving, he reminded Xiao Tang: "Host, please remember this: within two days!"
Xiao Tang sneered.
Making her lead the main villain up a snow-capped mountain within two days is truly something else.
Turning her gaze back, she saw that Di Jingling's eyes were already fixed on the pink ball of fur that had rolled away. She forced an explanation: "Husband, don't mind it, it's just a pink dog, don't pay attention to it."
"If that's the case, why keep it with you? Wouldn't it be better to leave it in the Prince's residence?" the man asked casually.
Knowing the answer.
Xiao Tang raised her index finger and shook it gently. "My husband, you don't know, this dog is so attached to me, I can't leave it behind."
She sighed.
"What's more, this dog always snuggles into my arms to keep warm; it's afraid of being cold."
The man frowned.
He was clearly unhappy.
His gaze fell on her collar for a moment.
Because he had just been nudged by that system, his clothes were now quite open.
Snowflakes began to fall.
He was about to slip into the collar—
Snap!
Di Jingling suddenly stretched out his large hand and covered the lapel.
That slap almost knocked out Xiao Tang's lungs.
Are you trying to murder your wife using the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms?
Her eyes were blazing with fury as she glared at him.
Faced with Xiao Tang's anger, the man explained without changing his expression, "It's easy to catch a cold, so wrap your clothes up tighter."
roar.
Catching a cold?
She gets easily angered!
...
News of the regent's death gradually spread and began to escalate.
The capital city is in complete chaos.
There is unrest in the court.
Di Yanqing was pale-faced all day long, and didn't even dare to think about skipping class anymore.
He threw himself into the Empress Dowager's arms, crying, "Mother, what should we do? My uncle is dead, are we doomed? Waaah—"
The Empress Dowager was unsure whether to be happy or worried, or perhaps it was a mixture of both...
On one hand, she was happy that Di Jingling died a good death; on the other hand, she was worried that her position as Empress Dowager was about to end.
After a moment's thought, she grabbed the young emperor and said, "It's alright, Qing'er. Come with me to see someone. I promise I won't let anything happen to you!"
Go see Di Yanhen!
Negotiate with him.
As long as she gives the other party what they want, she doesn't believe she can't survive!
Di Yanqing was dressed in plain clothes by his mother and left the palace. He had thought of countless possibilities, but he never expected to be dragged by his mother to see Di Yanhen.
Upon meeting Di Yanhen's gaze, Di Yanqing shouted, "You scoundrel!"
How did this man get involved with the Empress Dowager?
The Empress Dowager then gave her son a hard thud on the head.
"What are you yelling about?"
How can you just call someone a bad guy?
She smiled and explained to Di Yanhen, "Yanhen, don't take it personally with a child. I came here intending to say a few words to you. Now that the Regent is dead, how about I appoint you as Regent to fully assist the court? What do you think?"
The man who had been staring coldly at Di Yanqing now reacted.
He suddenly looked up and fixed his gaze on the Empress Dowager's face.
It was precisely because of this appearance that the Empress Dowager was very unsure of what to do.
Di Yanhen smiled, but his smile was dangerous, making it impossible to read his thoughts.
The Empress Dowager swallowed hard, watching him nervously.
"The Empress Dowager is truly talented; she even thought of appointing me as Regent! Haha!" He laughed heartily.
But in reality, the Empress Dowager did not feel that his smile was a compliment to her.
"Let me think about it. You should go back."
The Empress Dowager tried to speak again, but the man brutally shouted at her: "Get out!"
Although Di Yanqing was also afraid, he still subconsciously grabbed the Empress Dowager's arm and pulled hard, "Quick, let's go."
He forcibly dragged the Empress Dowager away.
On the way back to the palace, he stared solemnly at the Empress Dowager.
"Mother, how could you associate with such a person?"
"You didn't orchestrate the death of my royal uncle, did you?"
The young emperor was deeply frightened by his own thoughts.
He even felt that the Empress Dowager was very likely to do so.
Otherwise, he could have any other reason to believe that such a powerful royal uncle would suddenly be gone...
