"Assassins! Protect the Emperor!"
As soon as Nanzhi regained consciousness, she heard a scream.
The surroundings were chaotic and filled with the strong smell of blood. She opened her eyes and, before she could even catch her breath, saw a black-clad assassin walk past her toward the stage.
She was very close to the stage, but because the original owner had bumped her head, she was seeing stars and her vision was obscured by the blood flowing from her head, so she couldn't see clearly who was sitting up there.
She rubbed her eyes and could only vaguely make out that the person was wearing a black dragon robe, with a dragon on the chest that looked menacing and didn't quite match the person's fair and delicate face.
It was obvious that the assassins had come to assassinate the emperor.
Nan Zhi tried it out and realized that her body was weak, so saving her life was the most important thing right now.
She was originally a strategist from a quick transmigration world, earning commissions by cooperating with the system to complete tasks.
My goal is to become a rich woman and retire early! I heard that having a baby can earn me ten million in cash.
The entire childbirth process is painless, with no additional reactions; it's as simple as going to the toilet.
Um, although I hate having children, it's a fool not to make money when you can.
She secretly hid under the table and called out 003, at which point she heard a familiar voice.
[Ding! Congratulations, Little Twig, you have successfully activated the Childbirth System.]
[Every small world has some chosen ones, but for various reasons they have no offspring, suffer long-term bullying, and accumulate too much resentment. Later, they become so corrupted that they inadvertently commit acts that disrupt the world's balance. Your mission is to help them continue their lineage and maintain world order.]
"Extinction of lineage?"
[Don't worry, in each dimension you only need to reach 500 points to gain a fertile constitution. This constitution is different from the fertility constitution of ordinary people; only your constitution can bear the offspring of your target.]
How do I earn points?
The closer you get to your target, the more points you'll earn.
Is that so perverted?
Nan Zhi couldn't accept it either; the most important thing, of course, was the appearance of the person she was trying to woo.
[The chosen one of destiny is, of course, the most good-looking.]
The lecherous old man, Nanzhi, was satisfied: "Quickly send me the plot."
[Zhizhi, don't rush. I've already detected that the male lead is the tyrant on stage. Go save him first, or it will be too late.]
What?
Nanzhi peeked out from under the table, looking at the stage.
The assassin had already stepped onto the stage, sword in hand, ready to stab the male protagonist.
But she doesn't know any martial arts at all!
After hesitating for a moment, she crawled out and rushed forward to shield the male protagonist from the sword before he was stabbed.
Ouch, that really hurts.
It looks like I've been skewered as a human meat kebab.
The assassin drew his sword, and Nan Zhi felt blood gushing out. Her vision went black, and she fainted next to the male protagonist.
Before she fainted, she grabbed the male lead's clothes and said weakly but strongly, "Your Majesty, run!"
Nan Zhi was only physically unconscious; her consciousness was already processing the plot.
This is an ancient world. The Xiao Kingdom has been established for a hundred years. The male protagonist, Xiao Lanchuan, is the third emperor. He ascended the throne at the age of fifteen and was diligent in governing the country. In just five years, the Xiao Kingdom had already reached its peak, and the people lived in peace and prosperity.
Xiao Lanchuan had three thousand concubines in his harem, but after five years on the throne, he had no children. Even when he did conceive, the children would miscarry unexpectedly.
Gradually, news of his childlessness spread throughout the Xiao Kingdom.
Half of the civil and military officials were worried that the Xiao Kingdom would have no successor, while the other half were eager to change the kingdom.
Today's assassination attempt was orchestrated by Xiao Lanchuan's younger brother, Xiao Jingyi. In the original story, Xiao Lanchuan was injured and unconscious for a long time, causing turmoil in the Xiao Kingdom and almost allowing Xiao Jingyi to seize the throne.
Later, Xiao Lanchuan learned that the reason he had no heir was because his most trusted mother had poisoned him, in order to make way for Xiao Jingyi to succeed him.
In a moment of agitation, the poison took hold, causing him to completely turn evil and transform into a mad tyrant. He spoiled treacherous officials, slaughtered his blood relatives and friends, and beheaded honest and upright officials, turning the Xiao Kingdom into a living hell.
Nan Zhi's mission is to give Xiao Lan Chuan a son before the poison takes hold, to influence him, and to stop him from turning evil.
Her current identity is that of a lowly palace maid. Before she transmigrated, the palace maid had already died from a heart attack caused by excessive fright.
Therefore, she also inherited the original owner's heart ailment.
Right now, Nanzhi feels a bit tightness in her chest and shortness of breath, but fortunately the system has helped relieve her a lot.
She was not unconscious for long; when she regained consciousness, the chaos around her had subsided.
In her daze, she heard a deep, pleasant voice.
"Who sent you to assassinate me?"
Silence.
Xiao Lanchuan laughed, his voice magnetic and pleasant, but his words were chilling: "Cut off his tongue. I want to see what kind of tongue can't speak."
Soon, Nanzhi heard a series of moaning cries of pain.
"Your tongue coating isn't very good, no wonder."
Xiao Lanchuan clicked his tongue.
"Cut off all four limbs, turn them into human pigs, and put them in Shangyang Palace to serve as food for me."
He hasn't turned evil yet, has he?
How could it be so perverted?
Nan Zhi twitched her eyelids, about to open her eyes, when she heard the eunuch ask, "Your Majesty, what should we do with this palace maid?"
Nanzhi felt a gaze, like a snake, fall coolly on her face.
He stared at her for a while, and Nanzhi deliberately moved her eyelids, thinking he had seen her. Unexpectedly, he said, "Give her a proper burial."
Seeing the eunuch about to grab Nanzhi, Nanzhi quickly opened her eyes, "Your Majesty, this servant hasn't..."
Halfway through her sentence, Nanzhi was caught off guard when she met a pair of deep, dark eyes.
Xiao Lanchuan sat on the dragon throne, one hand supporting his chin, as elegant and leisurely as a cat.
He wore a dragon robe, his features were exquisite and three-dimensional, his lines were sharp and distinct, and he had a sharp and aggressive look.
Her skin was fair, her lips were extremely vibrant, and a beauty mark at the corner of her eye was alluring and fiery.
Nanzhi was somewhat stunned.
This is just too amazing!
Xiao Lanchuan looked at her leisurely, ignoring her pleading expression, and slowly said, "A last burst of lucidity before death, quickly drag her away and bury her."
Nanzhi:……
"003, are you sure he hasn't turned evil yet?"
Ah, I'm a little unsure myself.
In the story, he's not like this yet.
Nanzhi gripped his robe tightly, staring at him with teary eyes: "Your Majesty, I think there's still a chance to save me."
Xiao Lanchuan lowered his eyes to look at the hem of his clothes that had been pulled.
The top is covered with bloody handprints.
It got dirty...
He frowned slightly, his eyes almost overflowing with murderous intent.
