The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 257: Xiao Qingqing's Overheard

After dinner, the night is dark.

Xiao Rui asked Li Yuanfang to call Lu Xian, saw his respectful and cautious appearance, and was satisfied with his calm temperament, so he asked: Lu Xian, since you can take part in the martial arts examination, you must have something special. It's a pity to fail this time, but if you have outstanding abilities, I can give you a place to perform and stay by my side in the future, are you willing? However, you have to let me see your ability.

Lu Xian was overjoyed and hurriedly said: The villain is willing to be appreciated by His Highness King Xian. This is the villain's honor. Although the villain is not good at kung fu, he likes to jump up and down since he was a child. In addition to his short stature, he has developed an agile skill. Please Your Highness give the villain a chance to show off!

Xiao Rui nodded, knocked on the wooden table, and said with a sudden smile: How about this, you go to Chu Wang's mansion, go to Chu Wang's study, and bring out something for this king, do you have the guts? If you can do it, This king believes in your skill.

Lu Xian was stunned, thinking about the gains and losses in his heart, he didn't dare to hesitate for too long, nodded and said: I understand.

Xiao Rui smiled and asked Li Yuanfang to send him out.

When Li Yuanfang came back, Xiao Rui smiled and said: After the imperial examination, I will leave the capital. Wu Zhanfa and Wei Guangdi will stay in Huben Pavilion. Li Kui is too reckless and his appearance is too recognizable, so I will stay in the capital to protect Mr. Wenhe. .And you are by my side, so you can't do everything yourself, just lacking a person who has the courage and scheming, and has a clean background, so he can be reused.

Li Yuanfang agreed: What Your Highness said is absolutely true.

Xiao Rui sighed in his heart, now the Advent Point is only 60/100, even if he completes the two tasks assigned by the system, he can only add 30 points to the Advent Point, which is still ten points away from the Advent Point.

It would be great if I could come down again before leaving the capital!

Half an hour later, Lu Xian came back and stole a treasure from Chu Wang Xiao Yiheng's study.

It was a seal, Xiao Yiheng's personal seal, which was used to practice calligraphy and seal calligraphy and painting on weekdays. It was not very useful, but Lu Xian's ability to steal it showed his skill.

Very good! You have proved yourself. When you came to Chu Palace, did you see any powerful people in secret? Xiao Rui asked casually.

Lu Xian said respectfully: There is a middle-aged man who is extremely perceptive. I was not familiar with the environment when I first entered the Chu Palace, so I was almost discovered by this man.

Your Highness, it should be Liu Feixue, the fifth-rank expert next to King Chu. Li Yuanfang said.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, You will stay in Xianwang's mansion from now on, are you willing?

This is the honor of the villain. Thank you for your trust. The villain is willing to follow His Highness, no matter what you order. Lu Xian was overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down to pay his allegiance.

Okay! Xiao Rui smiled, gave Li Yuanfang a look, and asked him to take Lu Xian down.

 ….

In Ruyang Prince's Mansion, Xiao Qingqing is embroidering.

Her embroidery level is getting higher and higher. A mandarin duck is a mandarin duck. I believe that after being seen by someone, she will no longer make fun of it as a big goose. It's a pity that he will leave Beijing in a few days. Although he only left for a year, Xiao Qingqing is still worried, especially when Xiao Rui came to Ruyang Palace last time, she overheard the conversation between Xiao Rui and her father , Since then, she has been secretly vigilant...

Tonight, another mysterious person sneaked into the mansion. She never knew about it before, and she discovered it after careful observation during this period of time.

she is waiting.

After burning a stick of incense, her personal maid Tweety came back in a hurry, panting.

Xiao Qingqing quickly asked: Did you find out?

Tweety nodded, and said: I found it, it's Mr. Ouyang, the doorman next to the master, and he brought two people. He arranged to live in the guest room. I dare not approach, so I don't know what those two people look like .”

Has my father seen those two people? Xiao Qingqing asked.

Cui'er shook her head and said, No, but Mr. Ouyang went to see the master and sent out the guards and maids. It seems that there is something important to discuss.

Xiao Qingqing bit her lip and said, Go and prepare refreshments for me, I want to send them to my father, hurry up!

Yes... Cui'er didn't dare to neglect, she just breathed a sigh of relief and trotted out.

When the tea was ready, Xiao Qingqing went to find King Ruyang with it in person.

Near King Ruyang's study, patrolling guards found Xiao Qingqing, but were stopped.

Princess, the prince has an order. He is dealing with important matters, so no one will see him. The guard smiled sarcastically, but they knew the temper of their princess, so they wouldn't let him see him? Swing the whip up to see who dares to stop it.

Oh, is that so? That's fine. Xiao Qingqing didn't get angry, just smiled and turned around to leave.

The guards looked at each other, and a thought rose in their hearts, did my lady take the wrong medicine? Or did you forget to take your medicine? Is this still my hot-tempered young lady?

The guards continued to patrol in a daze, Xiao Qingqing turned around and came back, touching the backyard house.

She approached the study quietly, overhearing the conversation inside.

Don't worry, my lord. The villain understands that he is no longer what he used to be. He must plan some changes. If he is not sure, he will never act rashly.

Xiao Qingqing knew that this was Mr. Ouyang, her father's retainer. She had only met him a few times and was not familiar with him. She only remembered that he was a peaceful middle-aged man.

Nine times out of ten? It was also out of ten last time, and it failed, and it even aroused his doubts and temptations. King Ruyang sighed, and said, Why are you so impatient? In the process of fighting for the crown prince, whoever loses? Winning is fleeting, it is better to let other people do it.

My lord, that one doesn't want him to lose, but wants him to die.

King Ruyang sneered and said: A man is taller than the sky, and his life is thinner than paper. Ouyang, for Qingqing's sake, I can't do anything this time either! I won't be able to do it in the future!

There was a sudden silence in the house.

Xiao Qingqing heard her own name, for herself? So who is his father trying to kill?

At this moment, Xiao Qingqing's heart suddenly picked up, as if it missed a beat, and her whole body was shaking, so that the tray in her hand shook, and a stack of snacks fell to the ground.

Snapped…

who!

Suddenly, King Ruyang's shout came from the room, followed by the sound of breaking the door. A mysterious man wrapped in black came out holding a sword. When Xiao Qingqing reacted, the sword had already rested on Xiao Qingqing's shoulder. .

Stop! King Ruyang, who came out later, saw that it was his own daughter, and immediately called to stop.

King Ruyang came out, followed by that Mr. Ouyang, plus this man in black, it turned out that there were three people in the room.

Qingqing, why are you here? King Ruyang asked with a smile without changing his expression.

Xiao Qingqing red-eyed, she tried her best to keep herself calm, but unfortunately, she has always had a free and easy personality, when did she ever do something scheming?

Father, my daughter will bring you some tea. Xiao Qingqing's voice was a little crying, and she really wanted to ask her father if she wanted to harm Xiao Rui!

She didn't dare to ask, for fear that the answer would make her despair.

King Ruyang sighed in his heart, stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Qingqing's head, and said with a smile: Just let the servants deliver it, why bother to come here in person.

After finishing speaking, King Ruyang gave the man in black a look, and the man in black suddenly stretched out his hand and slashed at Xiao Qingqing's neck with a knife.

Xiao Qingqing only felt a pain in her neck and lay down in Ruyang King's arms.

Send the princess out of the capital and bring him back to the ancestral land of Lanling. King Ruyang said in a deep voice.

Yes! The man in black made a hoarse voice.

Mr. Ouyang hesitated, and said: My lord, will sending the princess away so abruptly cause suspicion?

King Ruyang said: Let's say to the outside world that I will leave Beijing to worship the Buddha for the princess. The king will explain it when the princess is there. Then imitate Xiao Qingqing's handwriting, imitate her tone, and explain it to King Xian to avoid arousing his suspicion.

Don't worry, my lord, I understand. Mr. Ouyang said.

King Ruyang nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said: Hey, forget it, let him do it himself this time, because it's for Qingqing. The two people in the mansion sent him there. He wants to sneak in low-key, afraid of causing trouble. If His Majesty is aware of it, then let this king help him? The little thing really thinks how capable he is!

Yes! My lord. Mr. Ouyang naturally had no objection.

King Ruyang sighed and said: Qingqing, you will understand the difficulties of being a father in the future!
