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

Chapter 86 From now on I am yours

Lin Wanrou searched with some skepticism, and then found a strange-looking short knife on a person dressed in tattered clothes.

It was dark and didn't look special, but her intuition told her that this thing might be useful.

Lin Wanrou thought for a moment, then held it up to Fang Lingchu and asked, "Princess, what is this? Do you recognize it?"

Fang Lingchu looked at the dark object that Lin Wanrou had brought, but couldn't figure it out no matter how she looked at it.

After waiting for a while without hearing Fang Lingchu's words, Lin Wanrou felt a little embarrassed. After all, the gold rings and fine jade that she had and others had found seemed to be inferior.

At this moment, the system's voice sounded: [Millennial Black Iron, my god, host, I knew the female lead was lucky! She even managed to find something like this.]

Upon hearing the system's words, everyone turned their gazes toward it.

Lin Wanrou never expected that the thing she randomly picked would be such a good thing.

She herself couldn't believe it.

Upon hearing the sound, the Crown Prince walked over and bowed to Lin Wanrou, saying, "Miss Lin, may I take a look at this?"

Lin Wanrou wasn't interested in this kind of thing and gave it directly to the Crown Prince.

The prince took it in his hand, feeling its cool touch, and looked at it before saying, "Miss Lin, may I sell this to you?"

Lin Wanrou was surprised that the Crown Prince wanted it, and even more surprised that he wanted to buy it instead of taking it directly.

After all, this thing was their spoils of war; I just found it.

"No need, if the Crown Prince likes it, then give it to him! Anyway, I have no use for it."

Then Lin Wanrou continued to help everyone tidy up her body.

All her fear had passed; the bloodshed wasn't as terrifying as she had imagined.

She wanted to find something that would appeal to a girl like Fang Lingchu.

She saved me today; otherwise, I might have continued to be tortured physically and mentally by that madman, Long Chenfeng.

Fang Lingchu watched Lin Wanrou's retreating figure and asked疑惑地问道: "Guagua, why didn't Lin Wanrou take the money the Crown Prince offered?"

The system, oblivious to the complexities of human thought, directly stated: "Perhaps she wants to leave a good impression on the Crown Prince, which would give the two of them a chance. But can Lin Wanrou, given her status, marry the Crown Prince?"

The system's statement completely baffled the Crown Prince and Lin Wanrou.

The prince was torn between throwing away what he held in his hand and keeping it.

Lin Wanrou was afraid that the Crown Prince would misunderstand and wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to explain.

She had just escaped the wolf's den and had no desire to return to the tiger's den.

Although royal children are of noble status, they are certainly surrounded by many beautiful women. She only wants to live a peaceful and stable life.

Fang Lingchu ignored the awkwardness between the two and continued chatting with the system.

【Guagua, why did you say that?】

The system stated matter-of-factly: "Based on my years of experience reading storybooks, men and women usually get entangled in a misunderstanding, exchanging gifts and favors, and gradually develop feelings for each other. Eventually, the crown prince, for the sake of his beloved woman, defies public opinion and finally makes her his crown princess. From then on, she becomes the empress, and the two share the throne."

Upon hearing the system's words, both the Crown Prince and Lin Wanrou felt as if they had eaten shit.

Crown Prince: Why would I choose a woman who is utterly useless to me as my Crown Princess when I have nothing better to do?

Lin Wanrou: She finally escaped from that lunatic Long Chenfeng, so why did she end up back in the palace, that cage? And didn't the princess say she wanted him to be a horse official? Does the princess intend to give her away to the crown prince instead of letting her become an official?

They were unaware of the Crown Prince and Lin Wanrou's long-held feelings, but Fang Lingchu disagreed with the system's words.

[I have a feeling that Lin Wanrou didn't want it because she thought it was too ugly. If it were even a little nicer, a properly polished dagger, I don't think she would have given it to the Crown Prince.] Lin Wanrou: The princess is indeed her kindred spirit.

Crown Prince: Is that so?
Fang Lingchu glanced at Lin Wanrou with a puzzled look and saw Lin Wanrou looking at Fang Lingchu with starry eyes.

The crown prince immediately felt a sense of crisis.

No, what's wrong with this woman's eyes? Could she have taken a liking to his Chu Chu too?
As Lin Wanrou dissected the body of a pure black wolf, she looked tenderly at Fang Lingchu.

The scene was incredibly bloody.

Suddenly, Lin Wanrou felt something hard on the wolf's body. She took it out and found it to be a small, round bead with a smooth, lustrous color.

It looks beautiful, with a bluish glow that makes it even more enchanting under the moonlight.

Lin Wanrou wiped the bloodstains off the table as if she had received a treasure, and happily went to Fang Lingchu, handing it to her like a precious object.

"Princess, this bead is beautiful."

System: Aaaaaaaahhhhhh

[Host, host, the Luck Bead, hurry, hurry, come here! This thing can be exchanged for lots of good things once the shop is open.]

Hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu looked at the thing in Lin Wanrou's hand with some curiosity.

His face was covered in blood, and he was holding a pure blue bead. Fang Lingchu didn't even notice him; if she had, she would have screamed.

Fang Lingchu held it in her hand; it was warm, and something on it seemed to be glowing.

Why is the Luck Bead inside the wolf's body?

The system explained: "For Heaven to control them, a small price must be paid. The price is that they all possess this substance within their bodies, some with more and some with less. It dissipates once used up, but unexpectedly, the one on this wolf directly condensed into a bead."

Fang Lingchu was still somewhat confused after hearing what the system said.

What benefit does Heaven gain from doing this? All this futile effort just to kill the Crown Prince.

These words instantly made Duan Ganze jump up.

He glared angrily at the Crown Prince, his expression saying: I knew it was because of you, you even framed him.

The crown prince touched his nose, avoiding eye contact with Duan Ganze.

Upon hearing that there was this thing inside the wolf's body, everyone quickened their pace and dissected the wolf's carcass.

They would also skin the wolf, since wolf skin is a form of insulation.

There are nearly a hundred wolves here. For some soldiers with children and elderly relatives who don't have much money, this is a good item for winter.

Everyone searched happily, and whenever they found a bead, they would give it to Fang Lingchu.

If they can't find a wolf, they'll just kill it; they won't waste wolf meat.

After all, the Dragon Kingdom isn't very wealthy right now. Having so much meat is fine, whether it's to give it to the generals stationed around the area as a supplementary meal or for them to take home and eat themselves.

Although they may not have any special methods, for ordinary people, being able to eat meat is already a source of great joy.

Everyone has mostly finished dealing with it.

Duan Ganze came to Fang Lingchu and presented her with the bead he had found, as if it were a treasure.

Then he said to Fang Lingchu, "Princess, thank you for your kind words just now. From now on, my people, Duan Ganze's people, are yours."

One sentence silenced everyone.
