Dress up as a sickly person to capture the villain princess!

Inside Prince Wen’s Palace.

"Oh, you mean to say that His Highness must take the little girl with him wherever he goes?"

"This is quite unusual. Although the Royal Reader has the responsibility and obligation to serve His Highness... but being inseparable like this is not what His Highness normally does."

Looking at the spy kneeling on the ground, he came to report.

The scene of that day reappeared in King Wen's mind: a delicate woman in a clear blue dress, a white fur vest and a cloak, riding on a tall horse behind the shadow guard.

With a firm look in his eyes and a military token in his hand, he walked towards Zhao Changlin step by step.

"Could it be that the origin of this little girl is not as simple as we imagined?"

After King Wen finished speaking, he looked back and saw a man standing by the window, looking thoughtful.

The man was dressed like a warrior, with black wrist guards on his hands and a thick headband on his head. It was obvious that he had just come down from a martial arts training ground.

"What do you think, Commander Gu?"

"The King is willing to listen."

Gu Zhao turned around, strode forward, and smiled brightly at King Wen.

"Your Highness, your Highness is a well-known tigress among the young masters of our continent. Only those useless men who want to gain power and wealth want to marry into your Highness's family and become his consort."

He sat down, looking at King Wen who was sitting opposite him and talking freely. Gu Zhao stretched out his fingertips and picked up a black chess piece on the table.

The inky chess piece was pinched between the fingers and fell heavily, making a crisp sound.

"Snapped".

"However, as far as I'm concerned, there is another reason why these young masters are unwilling to follow your Highness, and that is a rumor that is widely circulated in Jinzhou City."

"Your Highness...she...is not into men."

Gu Zhao continued to smile, but this smile was a little different from before, and his eyes were slightly narrowed.

"Your Highness is really kind. Since Your Highness wants me to mourn for my deceased step-brother in the mansion, I can give Your Highness a big gift."

"My Lord, can you have a good crossbowman in your house?"

"Although I am the commander, I am in charge of infantry, a small amount of cavalry, and a small amount of artillery."

"Longbowmen."

"But when it comes to the crossbowmen, they are really not good enough."

He closed his eyes and thought, now is the critical moment of his enthronement. As long as the old emperor's funeral is completed, His Highness will surely speed up the process of his enthronement.

If at this moment, His Highness's left and right arms were removed, it would be like a dragon trapped in shallow water. No matter how powerful they are, they will not be able to make any waves.

What he wanted to get rid of was not only the crucial little girl beside His Highness, but also the group of black guard dogs beside His Highness.

"We need first-rate archers. The armor of the Shadow Guards is difficult to pierce, and they have black iron guards all over their bodies."

"So, my lord, we can only shoot the eye socket with one arrow."

The finger that dropped the chess piece pointed at his own eyes and made a gesture of digging out eyes, Gu Zhao said meaningfully.

"Then the crossbowmen's second arrows should be aimed at the horse's limbs. Four people will lie in ambush, and each of them will shoot one arrow, and the arrow must draw blood."

"Then, you can hear a snap, the horse's body falls to the ground, and the shadow guard falls to the ground dead."

"And at this moment, the little girl is like a rabbit in a cage, at the mercy of others."

Since His Majesty has handed over the military token to her, then I guess as long as I capture this little guy alive, I can also leave a way out for myself, right?

King Wen may not be trustworthy, but His Highness is really hateful, so he can only choose one of the two. However, by then, the little girl here will kneel down and beg for mercy.

Nor will he be merciful.

Listening to Gu Zhao's almost insane words, King Wen nodded to indicate that he understood.

"Commander Gu has entrusted me with something, so I will definitely come to find him."

However, King Wen also had a caution in his heart. He had to be careful with such a wild and unruly person, otherwise he would not be able to drive the tiger to devour the wolf, but would end up being the farmer and the snake.

If such a sinister fang bites your hand, it will either cause ulceration or severed limbs.

It is no wonder that Gu Zhao, in order to consolidate his power in the Gu family, was willing to take action against his own brothers.

……

"Host, recently you have been eating and drinking, and reviewing documents! You are not doing your job properly at all!"

"As an excellent system, I must warn the respected host that it is time for you to execute..."

Listening to the buzzing sound in his ears, Xia Zhiyuan stretched lazily, looked at the pile of scattered memorials on the table, and felt tears in his eyes.

"You're right... It's time for me to eat... I've been reading so many memorials lately that my eyes are blurry..."

Put down the memorial in your hand.

Xia Zhiyuan stood up and looked at the scenery outside the window. In the courtyard was a long corridor of the imperial palace, followed by a garden-like landscape.

There are pavilions, towers, bridges, flowing water, and an exquisitely crafted rockery in the emerald green lotus pond.

I heard that this was built by the emperor on purpose when the late queen was still alive, in order to imitate the queen's hometown. Unfortunately, I heard that the queen did not like it, and soon became a nun, often accompanying the green lamps and ancient Buddhas.

"…Eat, eat, you won't die from eating…"

The system's chatter was still ringing in his ears. Xia Zhiyuan was in a very good mood. He sighed in his heart and began to teach his system earnestly.

"As a system, do you know what is the most important thing in a strategy? Of course, it is the human heart. In this state, how can I be so affectionate with His Highness?"

"I've already told you that this AI doesn't understand."

“What… I have a super-invincible database. How could I not be able to analyze mere human emotions? It’s just a matter of waiting…”

Xia Zhiyuan was tidying up the memorials he had reviewed on the table. When he was halfway through, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded behind his ears.

“Miss…Miss…!”

Chunni's voice sounded a little anxious, and he was breathing heavily. He leaned his hands on the mahogany table in front of Xia Zhiyuan before he caught his breath. The hair on Chunni's head was a little messy, and it was obvious that something had surprised him.

"What's wrong…?"

"Such a hurry."

Xia Zhiyuan was a little worried. He turned sideways, took out his white handkerchief and intended to hand it to Chunni to wipe her sweat.

Chunni quickly waved her hands, swallowed her saliva, took out a piece of letter paper from her sleeve and handed it to Xia Zhiyuan.

"Miss, this was given to me by a eunuch just now. As you know, I can't read."

"So I brought it to the young lady."

"The young eunuch said it was for the young lady."

Chunni held the letter paper in both hands and handed it over, hesitating cautiously.

Xia Zhiyuan was puzzled for a moment, pointed at himself with his index finger, and asked softly: "Is it for me?"

Who else would write to her? Her cheap father? Or did His Highness send someone to deliver it?

"Well, they said it was for the young lady."

"Chun Ni definitely didn't lie!"
