After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 11: The Plot-Driven Kill Begins

At this moment, the system said again: [Host, the plot-driven death has begun.]

Fang Lingchu hadn't even caught her breath before it started again; she was completely numb!
The system then said: "Termites are coming, and so are moths."

Right under the emperor's chair, and next to the window on the right, there were huge moths.

Fang Lingchu didn't have time to think. She went up and grabbed the emperor's hand, heading towards the door, her mind still on the system: [System, has my "jinx" skill activated yet?]

The system was also very excited, saying: "The host has arrived. You can use it anytime, but only twice."

Hearing that her skill had been activated, Fang Lingchu felt a little more at ease.

He continued, "Is everything alright once today is over?"

After asking the two people, Fang Lingchu went outside the house. Behind her were palace servants in a chaotic mess. The Imperial Guards had already protected the Emperor and Fang Lingchu.

But termites and moths aren't assassins; they're small and numerous, making it impossible to kill them immediately.

They themselves have to get bitten by those things, and some people have already been poisoned by the bites.

Fang Lingchu looked at the crowd; many had already been poisoned. She said to the system, "[Can the 'crow's mouth' be used on these animals?]"

The system noticed that some moths and ants were already crawling towards Fang Lingchu and Emperor Chongde.

System: [Okay. 】

Then Fang Lingchu thought to herself, "Those termites and moths will be burned to death immediately."

As soon as she finished speaking, the termites and moths spontaneously combusted and died.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this strange sight.

Everyone knows why this happened, but no one dares to make a fuss about it.

Fang Lingchu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the things were dead, and immediately stopped pretending.

He sat casually on the ground, panting heavily from exhaustion.

She just dragged the emperor out here for this very reason.

At this moment, the system's voice said again: [Host, don't sit still, it's not over yet, assassins are coming from all directions].

Fang Lingchu glanced at the layers upon layers of guards and said, "If there are assassins, there's no need to worry. All these royal guards are kept for this kind of situation."

While Fang Lingchu was chatting with the system, the adults, assassins, and guards over there had already started fighting.

The emperor, standing to the side, glanced at Fang Lingchu on the ground and subtly shielded the little girl.

Even in such a dangerous situation, she still has the mood to look at handsome men.

While everyone else was fighting the assassins, Fang Lingchu, who was by the emperor's side, was able to watch the show with peace of mind.

The system, watching the fight, exclaimed: "Wow, host, look at those handsome young men! Those guards' waists, their hands, their bodies...tsk tsk tsk, they look amazing...hehehehe, host, do you want to go to the guard camp and touch them later?"

Everyone: They're fighting! Can't you two have any sense of danger?

Fang Lingchu couldn't hear everyone's thoughts, so she looked over.

The questioner asked: "Who was the one who fought the best? His double-door physique looks so appealing, I just want to touch it, it must feel amazing, hehehe."

Fang Lingchu let out a lewd laugh.

Everyone: She really doesn't realize she's in danger.

Minister Fang even wanted to go over and beat up the girl who was craning her neck to watch the commotion.

Fang Lingchu watched the handsome guards beside the emperor as they fought valiantly. The emperor frowned, pondering who wanted him dead. Only after admiring the handsome men did Fang Lingchu ask the system who had sent these assassins.

The system stated: "[Grand Tutor Gu Ming, along with the Empress Dowager's and the former Crown Prince's people, and some wandering swordsmen who feel the Emperor is unworthy of his position have been manipulated by certain individuals.]"

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu asked in confusion, "Why are the palace guards so lax? How could so many people be allowed to come in and assassinate the emperor?"

The system dismissively replied, "[This country is cannon fodder; it's not surprising to have so many assassins. It's a country abandoned by Heaven, so there are bound to be many spies. Add to that the mess left by the late emperor, and your emperor is practically besieged on all sides.]"

Fang Lingchu gritted her teeth and said, "Do you want to die with me?"

The system, realizing what it had just said, quickly fawned, "No, host, it's all those love-struck fools' fault."

Fang Lingchu was furious and asked, "[That?]"

The system glanced at the fighting guards and said: [Bian Jing, deputy captain of the Imperial Guard, has fallen in love with the Princess, but due to his lowly status, he knows he is unworthy of her, so unable to climb up, he can only pull her down.]

Fang Lingchu pinched her thigh in surprise to keep from crying out; this was truly outrageous.

Fang Lingchu sighed inwardly: [Is this a forced attraction between a domineering bodyguard and a princess of a fallen kingdom?]

Everyone: Is this the time to talk about this?

After Fang Lingchu finished her sigh, the assassin and the guard named Xia Jing were also captured.

They have already been taken away by the Ministry of Justice.

Suddenly, dark clouds filled the sky, and thunder and lightning struck overhead.

The system screamed: [Host, something terrible has happened! The Heavenly Dao is about to make its move; it intends to kill your emperor!]

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu was already cursing the Heavenly Dao in her mind, not even sparing her ancestors for eighteen generations. She was as filthy as could be. Everyone was startled by Fang Lingchu's sudden outburst.

Even the imperial physician who came to examine the emperor and Fang Lingchu trembled.

At the same time, everyone saw that the sky, which had just been clear, was now covered with dark clouds, looking like it was about to thunder, lightning, and rain.

When the emperor heard the news that Heaven was going to strike him dead, his mood plummeted and his face turned very ugly.

He asked himself honestly, whether he was the crown prince or the emperor, he had lived up to the expectations of the common people and his ancestors, so why couldn't the world accept him, a mere mortal emperor?

Some people were happy while others were sad when they heard Fang Lingchu's words.

The Crown Prince and the Third Prince stood nearby, watching their father with nervousness.

Is there no place for their Dragon Kingdom in this world?
Why, why can't this world give them a place to live?

Their father was such a good man; whether as a father or as an emperor, he was always conscientious and diligent.

Why is this so unfair to their Dragon Kingdom?

Emperor Chongde was still very dissatisfied. Why was he destined to be cannon fodder and become the ruler who brought about the downfall of his country?

Everyone appeared calm on the surface, but their hearts were in turmoil.

At the same time, they were also considering how they could try to preserve the country if Emperor Chongde really died.

Fang Lingchu took a deep breath and then asked, "If I use my 'jinx' skill, can I block it?"

Everyone was eager to hear Fang Lingchu's question and hoped to hear the answer they were looking forward to.

Unfortunately, they were going to be disappointed. The system replied at this moment: "[No, your luck isn't enough, but...]"
