The female cannon fodder in the book, the villain instantly turned into a pitiful and coquettish gir

Before he finished speaking, a fight broke out in "Moonlight Cottage".

Ling Chenyu was very skilled and defeated the invading assassin in just a few moves.

Although Liu Ruyan looked weak, she was extremely ruthless in her attacks. For a moment, the private room was filled with the flashing of swords and the shadow of sabers.

Just as the battle was becoming increasingly intense, a burst of hearty laughter suddenly came from outside the door.

"Haha, what a wonderful fight, it's really an eye-opener!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man dressed in gorgeous clothes and with a smile on his face slowly walking into the private room.

Behind him, there was a group of well-trained guards.

"His Majesty has arrived!" the guards shouted in unison.

It turned out that this middle-aged man was the emperor of Chengguo.

He had already known about Ling Chenyu and Liu Ruyan's "Hongmen Banquet" and came specially to join in the fun.

Upon seeing this, Ling Chenyu and Liu Ruyan quickly put away their weapons and saluted politely.

The emperor waved his hand, indicating that the two of them didn't need to be polite, and then smiled.

"You two are in such a good mood that you are putting on a big show right under my nose. But I think the show is not over yet."

Ling Chenyu's heart tightened. He knew that the emperor's words must have a deeper meaning.

Liu Ruyan had a complicated expression on her face, and seemed to be thinking about the emperor's true intentions.

"How about this,"

The emperor continued.

"I will act as a notary today and allow the two of you to compete fairly.

Prince Chen, if you can solve the bandit problem on the border of Cheng State within one month with the military power in your hands, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of gold.

Miss Liu, if you can uncover and prevent a conspiracy against me in the same amount of time, I will grant you a pass to bid and allow you to make one request."

Ling Chenyu and Liu Ruyan were both stunned when they heard this, and the expressions on their faces seemed to be suddenly frozen in a state of confusion of "What the hell?"

They looked like two pieces of antique porcelain that had just been dug out of the soil, staring at each other blankly, their eyes exchanging silent questions: "What is the emperor up to?"

Ling Chenyu was the first to come back to his senses. He rubbed his temples, trying to squeeze out a trace of logic from the emperor's words that seemed profound but were actually full of loopholes.

He thought to himself, "Is this old fox trying to please both sides and not offend anyone again?"

Liu Ruyan bit her lips lightly, and a hint of cunning flashed across her eyes.

"Humph, the Emperor is trying to imitate that bricklayer and use a broken shovel to smooth things over between us two enemies!

However, his craftsmanship is probably not that good, so be careful not to paste yourself on the wall."

The two of them exchanged a knowing look tacitly, with a hint of excitement in their eyes, as if saying.

"Since the emperor loves to play so much, let's have some fun with him!"

So, Ling Chenyu cleared his throat in a deep voice and bowed seriously to the air.

"Your Majesty is wise, and I will follow your instructions and work with Lord Liu to make peace and create a harmonious court."

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Liu Ruyan, and his eyes clearly said, "Look, my acting is pretty good, right?"

Liu Ruyan was not to be outdone. She raised a playful smile and imitated Ling Chenyu, bowing to the air.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. I will put the overall situation first and work hand in hand with Lord Ling to build a peaceful and prosperous world."

After saying that, she blinked deliberately, and she looked like a clever little ghost who said, "You tease me, and I tease you too."

The eunuchs and guards standing by were so exhausted from trying to hold back their laughter that their faces almost turned green, and they secretly admired him in their hearts.

"These two adults are really born enemies. They can even get along so happily. I'm afraid that the emperor's move will backfire again."

At this time, the emperor was hiding behind the screen, spying on their "wonderful performance" and muttering to himself.

"These two kids are really ridiculous. Never mind. As long as I can stop them from really fighting, it doesn't matter if my 'smoothing' skills are a little clumsy."

Just like that, a dispute that could have been tense was resolved with the tacit cooperation between Ling Chenyu and Liu Ruyan.

It was turned into a ridiculous "smoothing things over" drama.

Ling Chenyu opened his eyes wide, as if he had seen a ghost, and stared at Liu Ruyan's delicate face that seemed like it could squeeze water out of it.

At this moment, she was looking grateful, just like a female actor who had just stepped off the stage and had not yet removed her makeup.

Ling Chenyu felt a mixture of emotions in his heart, his heart was in turmoil, and he also felt an inexplicable "fusivity".

Oh no, it's fear, yes, it's fear!

He muttered secretly: This woman is probably a walking acting talent. I have to stay away from her, otherwise I will be sold out by her one day and have to help her count the money.

"Ahem, Emperor Cheng, this trip of mine is purely personal, customized, not with a group, not organized, just for the sake of a little spiritual happiness, to come to your country to relax and find some inspiration."

Ling Chenyu deliberately prolonged his tone and acted as if to say, "I'm free, don't mess with me."

The hidden meaning behind the words is: "Hey, we are not here to cause trouble, let alone discuss territorial disputes with you. Stop talking nonsense. Long live peace, understand?"

The Emperor Chengguo raised his lips in a playful smile.

I guessed that the neighboring prince might have taken the wrong medicine, or he was kicked off the bed by his own princess last night and was in a bad mood, so he came here to have fun.

But he still looked amiable and smiled.

"Haha, Lord Ling is really a man of character. In this case, I will definitely do my best to be a good host and let Lord Ling have an unforgettable relaxing trip in Chengguo."

When Ling Chenyu heard this, he was secretly delighted.

Hey, this old emperor is quite sensible. He didn't give me a warning. That's not bad.

He flicked his sleeves in a nonchalant manner.

That gesture seemed to say, "Look, my charm is unstoppable. Even the emperor of the enemy country has to give me some face."

However, Liu Ruyan on the side rolled her eyes.

This Ling Chenyu is obviously full of bad intentions, but he pretends to be a white lotus. It's really enough.

However, she changed her mind and decided that since this guy loved to act, why didn't she just have some fun with him?

A sly smile appeared on her lips, and she decided to add some "spice" to Ling Chenyu's life in the days to come.

Let him know what it means that "life is like a play, it all depends on your acting skills."

A "relaxing trip" centered on Ling Chenyu quietly turned into an absurd and hilarious "acting competition" full of jokes.

Ling Chenyu thought he could leisurely drink a cup of tea and enjoy the scenery.

But he found himself becoming a "monkey" in the eyes of others, performing all kinds of nonsensical scenes every day.

From "accidentally entering the imperial garden of the palace and engaging in a battle of wits and courage with the imperial concubine" to "breaking into the forbidden area at night and being almost mistaken for an assassin."

Then there is the part about "competing for talent with the young prince of Cheng State, and the result is who can laugh first", which is so hilarious that you can't help but laugh.

As for Ling Chenyu, although he seemed to be suffering terribly on the surface.

But he was very happy in his heart. After all, this kind of life was much better than being bored in the palace.

The most important thing is that he can receive various messages, which will make it more convenient for him to find Liu Yaoyao.

He began to enjoy the days of competing with Liu Ruyan in wits and courage, and would even occasionally deliberately "let Liu Ruyan win" to let her win a few games.

After all, who can resist an "opponent" who can make you laugh and give you a headache?

What's more, this person's sudden appearance might be related to Liu Yaoyao being held hostage by Ling Ze.

In this way, a "relaxation trip" that might have been tense turned into a wonderful adventure full of laughter, joy, and funny things due to the "unremitting efforts" of the two.

An indescribable feeling also quietly developed between Ling Chenyu and Liu Ruyan.
