The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

After Xiao Rui and Yue Shuying passed through a bamboo forest, the scenery ahead suddenly became brighter.

A stream of running water is winding, the spring water is beautiful, and there are rockery rocks and strange shapes beside it. Against the background of flowers, koi swim in the stream, and the bright lights are lit, illuminating the place brightly.

Many men and women in white gowns gathered here. Everyone wore a half-mask, and held wine jugs and wine glasses in their hands. They were in groups of three or four, and when they chatted to the fullest, they toasted and drank together.

The arrival of Xiao Rui and Yue Shuying was like a stream flowing into a lake, and it didn't attract anyone's attention. A servant girl brought fine wine, and Xiao Rui and Yue Shuying wandered around with it, and stopped to listen when they encountered interesting topics . The speaker deliberately suppressed his voice so that no one could hear his real voice. This kind of masked banquet did eliminate the barrier.

Not long after, Crown Prince Yan Yan Xifeng came.

He was dressed in a black long gown, just like last night. He came to the crowd and said with a smile: The reason why I set up this private banquet today is because I am very happy. My beloved sister, Princess Linglong, is getting married. As an elder brother, I want to send her the best wishes, so tonight everyone must have a good drink and chat! Come, let's raise our glasses together!

Everyone raised their wine glasses, expressed their blessings one after another, and then drank together.

Afterwards, Yan Xifeng left here.

Xiao Rui is curious about what Yan Xifeng's conspiracy is, but judging from the present, there is no conspiracy. Could it be that Yan Xifeng is just playing tricks?

Just when Xiao Rui was puzzled, an internal official came quietly, who seemed to have recognized Xiao Rui's attire, and said directly after arriving, Master Fa, His Royal Highness welcomes you!

The game is on!

Xiao Rui immediately became interested, and gave Yue Shuying a reassuring look. He left here with the internal officials, walked through a garden, and there was a house in a secluded place with winding paths.

At this moment, Yan Xifeng was standing in front of the house.

Xiao Rui walked over, cupped his hands and said with a smile: His Royal Highness, I am polite!

Yan Xifeng nodded and asked, Master Fa, do you still remember what this king said? I will give you a great favor. But before the good thing comes, you need to do one thing for this king!

Xiao Rui was puzzled and said, I don't know what it is?

Yan Xifeng pointed at the house, and said: There is a distinguished guest inside, who has a cold and arrogant personality, but likes poetry. If you help me entertain her well, things will be done beautifully, and the good things I promised you will come naturally.

Xiao Rui was surprised, to be honored as an honored guest by Yan Xifeng, could it be a big shot of the clan, or the chief of the three provinces and six ministries? What is even a tall man?

He looked into the house, and found that there were more than a dozen elite guards in the house, strictly guarding the main room.

Go! Yan Xifeng patted Xiao Rui on the shoulder, then he turned and left.

Although Xiao Rui was puzzled, he was also very curious, who was in the room that Yan Xifeng paid so much attention to?

When he couldn't figure it out, Xiao Rui walked into the house. He was interrogated first, and Xiao Rui was searched to ensure that there was no murder weapon before he was allowed to enter the house.

Xiao Rui pushed open the door and went in, only to see a woman with a half mask sitting in a bright room, drinking tea alone. Although she couldn't see her face clearly, after all, only her red lips and chin were exposed, but from these two places, it could be seen that this woman was young and very beautiful.

Xiao Rui cupped his hands, without deliberately suppressing his voice, he said, See Madam.

Oh? How do you know I'm married? The woman was also looking at Xiao Rui, and when she heard what he said, the corners of her mouth slightly raised and her red lips curved.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: Although Madam is wearing the same white shirt, she is full of charm in her gestures and gestures. Although her face is covered by a half mask, her flaming red lips are bright and moving. Of course, there are no women who have not left the cabinet like Madam. smell.

The woman was stunned for a long while, then he laughed and said: Hehe... How dare you dare to tease me? Believe it or not, I will punish you for a serious crime?

Xiao Rui shrugged slightly, and said: This private banquet is to show people a fake face, which is to bid farewell to superiority and inferiority, and how can I be frivolous? What I said is true. Is it possible that I have to go against my conscience and say that Madam is not good-looking? In that case , my heart will ache.

Pooh! I am so shameless. Xiao Rui despised himself severely.

The woman smiled even more, her red lips were raised high, revealing two small dimples, she looked playful.

Your Highness has found an interesting person...with great literary talents, interesting personality, I heard that he is also outstanding in appearance, and he is a native of Xia State, and has no connection with Yan State. It is reasonable for you to be favored by a beautiful woman because you are so outstanding! After the woman finished speaking, she immediately stood up.

Xiao Rui asked: What does Madam mean by this? Which beauty is favored?

Did Yan Xifeng let him hook up with women? I go! Let me, the majestic prince of the Xia Kingdom, help you use beauty tricks, who do you think I am!

The woman shook her head and said: Since His Highness the Crown Prince didn't tell you, I naturally can't say more, but what I can tell you is that this beautiful woman is a rare beauty in the world, and she is a blessing from your three lifetimes of cultivation. It’s a dream come true for the son of Yan country, but this time it’s cheaper for you.”

Stunning beauty? That's about it! Bah bah, that doesn't work either! How can I, His Majesty King Xian, be willing to degenerate and become a pawn and use beauty tricks?

Madam was joking. Since the other party is rare in the world, he must have a very high vision. I happen to know someone who is better than me in every aspect. How about I recommend him to Madam? Xiao Rui said.

The woman suddenly became curious and asked, Who is it?

Li Kui! Xiao Rui began to play tricks.

After the woman muttered softly, she said, I've never heard of this person, is he also from your Xia Kingdom?

Naturally! Xiao Rui nodded,

The woman said: That's a pity, the time is too late, tonight is a god-given opportunity, the matter has come to this point, you can't shirk it, otherwise the crown prince will forgive you? Come with me.

With that said, the woman got up and walked back.

Xiao Rui wanted to see what kind of tricks Yan Xifeng was playing, so he followed the woman through the back door and a long corridor to the back house.

There are also a large number of guards around the back house, but unlike the front, these guards are all women, each with a deadpan expression on their faces.

The woman said to Xiao Rui: You wait here, someone will take you in later!

Xiao Rui nodded, watching the woman step into the house and into the hall.

After entering, the woman took off half of the mask on her face, revealing a face with bright and kind eyes. She was indeed a beauty, but compared with the other woman sitting in the hall, she was a little worse.

And if Xiao Rui came in, he would be surprised, because this stunning beauty is none other than Princess Yan, Yan Linglong!

The third sister is here! Yan Linglong was sipping tea, when she saw her third sister, Princess Yulan, come in, she hurriedly greeted her.

This woman with dimples in her smile is Yan Qingkong, the third daughter of Emperor Yan.

Yan Qingkong smiled and said, You, since you're here, why don't you go to the front? Anyway, it's a mask to show people, and others can't recognize you. Didn't you like women disguised as men before? I just walked away once. , the front is very lively, I heard that Ouyang Fei, the prospective son-in-law, is also here, but wearing a mask, I didn't find it.

Yan Linglong smiled and said, If it wasn't for the third sister to be the lobbyist this time, I wouldn't have come here. His Royal Highness is really smart to ask you to be the lobbyist.

There was something strange in Yan Qingkong's eyes, and she couldn't help sighing in her heart, but there was no change on her face, and she said with a smile: After all, he is the prince and our elder brother. He has invited you many times, but you have refused, which is also a bit of a joke. If you are ruthless, you have to give him face. You will marry soon. From then on, we are outsiders. The prince will understand this truth. After all, we are brothers and sisters, and we must change for the better. We cannot let the emperor replace us. Worry.

Yan Linglong poured a cup of tea for Yan Qingkong and said with a smile, Third Sister, let's talk about something else.

Okay! Yan Qingkong could only change the subject, and said, I just met a wonderful person at the banquet, the talented person who wrote the famous song Magpie Bridge Immortal in Yandu. This person is not only talented in writing, but also speaks Interesting, Linglong, you like poetry, I brought him here outside the courtyard, why don't you invite him in for a chat?

No need. Yan Linglong flatly refused, and said: I should go back after a while.

Yan Qingkong smiled and said: It's just Xushi, why are you in such a hurry to go back to the house? Don't worry, I didn't reveal your identity, and the crown prince didn't know either. That person followed Yue Shuying to see the world, so I wanted to come here People are brought here, so we can’t drive them away. If the two feelings last for a long time, how can they be in the day and night. What a beautiful sentence, Linglong, have you read this poem and haven’t felt any emotion in your heart?”

Yan Linglong was silent, indeed, this poem is wonderful, if not for this occasion, she would really like to meet the poet.

But this is Yan Xifeng's territory, Yan Linglong didn't believe that Yan Xifeng would invite him to the banquet so kindly, he wished to ruin his marriage.

So she even doubted Yan Qingkong, thinking it was Yan Xifeng's entrustment. However, Yan Qingkong has a good relationship with her, and this time she forcefully pulled her over, she couldn't refuse, so she thought of coming here to sit and then leave immediately.

Now, Yan Qingkong invited another poet, what is his intention?

At this time, Yan Qingkong saw Yan Linglong hesitated, and said again: I heard that this person is from the capital of Xia Kingdom. Didn't my sister go to Xia Kingdom last year? Maybe I know this person. By the way, just now he said that he I know Li Kui from Xia Guo, and it is said that this Li Kui is handsome and literary, even better than him, has my sister heard of it?

Yan Linglong frowned suddenly, Li Kui? She had never heard of or even seen this Li Kui when she went to Xia Country, but she had seen such a name after returning to Yan Country.

That was the name that appeared on the information when she asked people to investigate Xian Wang Xiao Rui. It was the guard Xiao Rui recruited. He was a dark-skinned, ferocious and rude man.

Yan Linglong became interested, who is this talented person who made Magpie Bridge Immortal? Why are you talking nonsense?

Sister, I've called everyone here, you should meet them, how about this, you go and change into a white shirt and a mask, isn't that all right? Yan Qingkong urged again.

Yan Linglong nodded and said, Okay! Let's take a quick look.

After speaking, Yan Linglong got up and went into the inner room to change clothes.

Yan Qingkong took a deep breath, quickly took out a paper bag from her embroidered mouth, walked to an oil lamp beside her, took off the lampshade, opened the paper bag, and poured the powder inside.

Crackling...

The powder burned, and there was a slight cracking sound immediately, and then a strange fragrance came out.

Yan Qingkong inadvertently took a sip, and suddenly felt her eyes blurred, and she felt a strange feeling in her body, and her cheeks instantly turned a slight blush.

She quickly covered the lampshade, and then said to the inner room: Sister, prepare first, I'll call someone in.

After Yan Linglong responded, Yan Qingkong immediately went to call Xiao Rui.
