Chapter 105 Your Highness, I am innocent!
Upon hearing about Ji Jingqi's family's fate, Fang Lingchu couldn't help but sigh: "Indeed, people who are good-looking but lack the ability to protect themselves are a scourge to themselves and those around them."

But you can't blame them. Blame those lustful people. If you like someone, you can pursue them openly. What's with messing with their whole family? I'm speechless. If that Prince Yan's son hadn't died, I would have definitely made him experience what it means to wish he were dead. Hmph!

The system continued: "Host, don't be angry yet, there's something even more infuriating coming!"

According to the original plot, Song Xiaoyu rescued Ji Jingqi and Wu Yuhao from the two princes, gaining them two important assistants. Later, when Song Xiaoyu betrayed his country and helped the Xiongnu fight against the Long Kingdom, these two played a significant role!

Fang Lingchu: ... It's hard to calm down.

Ji Jingqi became the male favorite of the Prince of Yan's heir, Wu Yuhao hated the Prince of An's heir, and then they both thought that the emperor and the crown prince couldn't control their own people, so they hated the Long Kingdom. Hearing that their benefactor wanted to betray the country, they agreed themselves, and the three of them hit it off immediately. So why did they choose to surrender to the Xiongnu?

The system explained: "[Of course, it's because the Xiongnu only steal grain, they won't occupy the land. Only if Song Xiaoyu cooperates with the Xiongnu, kills all the emperor's sons and brothers, and then the Xiongnu leave, wouldn't the country be his?]"

Fang Lingchu, still somewhat confused, asked: "So, in this way, the Xiongnu won't come to steal anything anymore?"

The system also said speechlessly: "I don't know about that. Maybe Song Xiaoyu felt that he was more powerful than the emperor and the others! But in the end, he was killed by Princess An, which was a fitting death, dying at the hands of the woman he loved most."

Ji Jingqi and Wu Yuhao were eventually taken into Princess An's harem and tortured to death—they deserved it!

Fang Lingchu nodded and said, "How could Princess An, who is such a fickle person, possibly allow the man beside her to have more power than herself? She doesn't want to be someone's appendage."

However, Wu Yuhao and Ji Jingqi still felt a bit sorry for them. But now that Prince An is dead, the two heirs are dead, and Song Xiaoyu is about to die for assassinating the Crown Prince, they probably won't follow the same path as before!

The system nonchalantly replied: "I don't know, it's not important, I don't care."

Get ready to go in, host, hurry and find the treasure!

After the system finished speaking, the Crown Prince explained to the people why the Song family's property was confiscated. Then, all members of the Song family were arrested, including the youngest son.

The Crown Prince went in and sat at the head of the table, with the rest of the Song family below him.

The old lady Song asked tearfully, "Your Highness, we don't know what our Song family has done that His Majesty wants to kill us. Please tell us."

Madam Song, being a first-rank imperial consort, had the right to ask this question.

The Crown Prince looked at Madam Song and said, "General Song openly attempted to assassinate me in the main hall. Madam Song, tell me, what crime is this? Guards, search the house. I suspect the Song family of having ulterior motives."

Then the people at the door and inside turned the Song family's house upside down.

In particular, focus on searching all the wives' rooms mentioned by the Crown Prince. There are many hidden compartments in the rooms, so be sure to search them carefully.

Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, Madam Song cried out that she was innocent.

“Your Highness, my son, Xiao Yu, is loyal to the Emperor and the country. He is a loyal subject to Your Highness and His Majesty. How could he possibly assassinate the Crown Prince? There must be some misunderstanding. Please investigate thoroughly, Your Highness.”

The Crown Prince looked at the Song family members with amusement and asked, "So, Madam Song is saying that I have wronged General Song?"

Upon hearing the Crown Prince's words, Madam Song lowered her head in fear and said, "That's not what I meant, Madam Song, Madam Song."

For a long time, Madam Song and her servants were at a loss for words.

He could only pull his daughter-in-law aside, hoping she would plead for him.

Unfortunately, Madam Song's eyes are now empty, like a puppet that has lost its soul.

She held her youngest son tightly, lost in thought.

Fang Lingchu followed Gu Wangyan to search the house.

Following the system's instructions, they quickly found a room.

It was a room resembling an alchemy room, but apart from a huge alchemy furnace, there was nothing else inside. Fang Lingchu asked curiously, "System, why did you bring us to this alchemy room? Is this Song Xiaoyu pursuing immortality?"

The system explained: "Every emperor dreams of immortality, and your emperor is no exception. It's just not the right time yet. Song Xiaoyu is preparing for the future; he's having people refine it now so he can use it later."

Fang Lingchu suddenly felt that Song Xiaoyu was really smart. He planned everything step by step and had calculated everything. She never expected that he would still die because of a woman. She was really impressed.

[As expected, even a dog wouldn't be attracted to someone so love-struck. Who would have thought someone like this could be so love-struck? I'm speechless.]

Then he continued, "Where is the treasure hidden?"

The system said: "See that white Bagua diagram? There's a switch right above it. Jump up and press the black bead in the center, and the door underground will open."

Fang Lingchu looked at the height, then at herself, and said, "You want me to go?"

The system said with a hint of exasperation, "Host, there are so many people around you, can't you use your brain?"

Fang Lingchu was scolded and angrily ignored the system.

She would never admit that she hadn't remembered that there was someone else around.

Fang Lingchu pretended to walk around there, touching this and that, and then said, "There doesn't seem to be anything special here."

Gu Wangyan cooperated and said, "No, we don't have any. Why don't we go look somewhere else?"

Fang Lingchu ignored Gu Wangyan's words and continued to look around and touch things, making her way through the entire alchemy room before returning to her original spot.

Then he looked at the Bagua diagram, walked over, jumped around in the middle, glanced at the black dot on it, and said to Gu Wangyan, "General Gu, it seems to be hollow underneath. That black dot on top is so strange! It looks very smooth. It must be touched by people often. Gu Wangyan, could you go up and take a look?"

Gu Wangyan jumped up and gently touched the black and white dots with his finger.

Then Fang Lingchu fell down.

"Aaaaaaah, help!"

After the shouting ended, there was a loud thud, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Fang Lingchu landed firmly on the floor.

Gu Wangyan originally wanted to remind Fang Lingchu not to stand in the middle, but he didn't have time before he lit it.

However, it was too late to catch them.

Fang Lingchu fell to the floor, feeling as if her bones were shattered.

Then Fang Lingchu shouted, "Gu Wangyan, didn't you say anything before you turned on the switch?"

The system then spoke up, saying, "[Host, didn't you tell them to order it?]"

Fang Lingchu covered her bottom, rubbing it pitifully, and glared fiercely at Gu Wangyan.

Although she knew it was her fault, she was already injured, couldn't she at least be comforted?

The system realized its mistake and quickly said, "Host, I've sensed the treasure! Go find it quickly!"

Hello everyone, Happy May Day! It's the third day. Are you all still reading my book? Thank you for your support! It's okay if you don't have time to read it, have fun, everyone!
