Congratulations, host! You've successfully completed two tasks. Would you like to participate in the lottery? It costs 1000 points per draw!
"Need not."
[Okay, so, the teleportation quest?]
Mingyue: "Mmm."
Star Pavilion —
Mingyue slowly opened her eyes. The room was filled with swirling smoke. The layout of the room was very particular. It was filled with jade and antiques. In the middle was a huge water vat with only a black and white fish swimming inside.
[Host, have you started the storyline?]
Mingyue gave a faint "hmm".
This is a world dominated by female protagonists, where a lowly palace maid goes to great lengths to become the empress.
Unexpectedly, the emperor died young, so the female protagonist had no choice but to let the young crown prince ascend the throne, and she became the regent empress dowager, serving the people wholeheartedly.
However, the princess of the Darong Dynasty transmigrated and possessed a spatial dimension containing countless rare and precious materials, as well as a marrow-cleansing spiritual spring.
She directly killed the palace maid, thus beginning her conquest of the Heavenly Cold King. After she had her fill of flirting with the men of her own dynasty, she would go elsewhere. It can be said that Su Linglong had a group of devoted men behind her.
The most outrageous thing is that, thanks to this space, Su Linglong was able to cultivate and even ascended to heaven with a bunch of men.
It left behind a world devastated and devoid of life, a place of unbearable suffering.
[This world is rather special; it's a cry for help from Heaven. The female lead is already dead, so we might have to raise another one.]
Mingyue pondered, "Training a personal chef isn't out of the question." "Oh."
"Grand Preceptor, His Majesty summons you."
Mingyue waved for people to stand up. She stepped barefoot onto the jade floor, the red rope tied around her fair and slender ankles was eye-catching, and the crescent-colored skirt fell down in layers.
The servants dared not look directly at Mingyue's face, and followed behind her with their backs bent.
The imperial palace did not allow sedan chairs to travel; only the emperor and the imperial advisor had this privilege, and they traveled without hindrance.
The palace was magnificent and luxurious, with extravagance everywhere. Mingyue walked in without changing her expression, cupped her hands and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The emperor waved his hand, signaling someone to bring a stool for the Grand Preceptor, and asked him with a somewhat troubled expression, "Grand Preceptor, the north has suffered from drought for three years. Is there any way to pray for rain?"
"The will of Heaven cannot be defied. Your Majesty might as well divert the funds to the disaster-stricken areas in the north. However, this matter cannot be approved rashly, as there are corrupt officials among Your Majesty's ministers."
The emperor was furious. "Is this true?"
"really."
The emperor quickly looked at the imperial advisor, "Do you know who it is?"
Mingyue shook his head inscrutablely, his brows furrowing slightly. "I can only divine a little, but I don't know exactly who it is. Your Majesty can investigate secretly. I can go to the disaster area in the north this time."
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense. Mingyue was in no hurry and picked up a cup of tea to take a sip.
After much deliberation, the emperor decided that the matter was feasible. The Grand Preceptor was loyal to the royal family and would never harm him, but the other corrupt officials were unaware of this.
"Very well, this matter will be left to the Imperial Advisor. I will investigate in secret."
Mingyue accepted the order and said, "Your subject takes his leave."
"Imperial Preceptor, you've worked hard. The snow lotus you mentioned last time has been delivered to your residence." The Emperor looked at Mingyue's white hair with concern. "Shouldn't the Imperial Preceptor take on a disciple?"
Each generation of imperial advisors did not live long because they were trying to peek into the secrets of heaven. The more they peeked, the more their lifespan was consumed. Therefore, each generation of imperial advisors would take on disciples early so that they could serve the royal family wholeheartedly.
