Quick Wear: Saving the Heroine Isn’t Too Easy!

Unfortunately, the emperor was arrogant and licentious, refused to listen to the advice of the imperial teacher, promoted corrupt officials and treacherous people, and was finally killed by the rebels.

"It's okay. There are still many people with the surname Lin in Xi Country."

Gu Xici said calmly, as if nothing had happened.

"That..."

The deputy general didn't know which branch of the royal bloodline was chosen by the imperial master. He was really lucky.

"There is a princess in the cold palace, go and see her."

Gu Xici was dressed in a plain shirt reflecting the spring sunshine, like a puff of clear frost shrouding his body. The jade pendant on his waist was shining brightly, and he was covered with a snow-white fluffy cloak, like an elf who had fallen into the world.

The deputy general was distracted for a while before he caught up with the imperial teacher.

In the cold palace.

Lin Jinxi snuggled in the arms of a palace maid, who was the only support her mother left her. If it weren't for Shaoyao, she, an unfavored princess, would have starved to death in the cold palace without anyone knowing.

"Princess, it's very chaotic outside right now. Let's stay here and wait for the rebels to leave."

Shaoyao held the skinny Lin Jinxi in her arms. She herself was also skinny.

"Sister Shaoyao, I'm scared."

Lin Jinxi was trembling with fear. Before, there were sounds of fighting and killing outside, but now it was quiet, which made her even more scared.

It was unknown whether the rebels won or her father won. No matter who won, she would be an unloved princess in the cold palace, and could only stay in the cold palace or be sent to marry. She had no one to rely on, and a little eunuch could bully her.

"Don't be afraid, Princess. No one would come here for nothing."

Speaking of this, Shaoyao felt fortunate. Although the cold palace was remote and desolate, it was very safe.

Those rebels would not come to this cold palace where there is no gold, silver or jewelry.

At this moment, a dozen soldiers arrived. After confirming that there was no danger, they stood in two rows, ready to welcome the Imperial Master.

The person who came walked lightly and gracefully, steadily and slowly. Even though the environment in the cold palace was dirty and messy, her expression remained calm, as if all the external environment affected her heart.

"Lin Jinxi?"

Gu Xici observed the Supreme God of Jinxi through his veil. He was still a little kid now, and his eyes were full of fear and panic.

"Ok?"

Gu Xici looked at the little brat and felt more and more familiar with him. Wasn't this the heroine she met in the first world? How could she appear in this world?

"Xiao Zi, the heroine of this small world is the same person as the heroine of the previous small world, and every heroine in the small world I have been to is very similar."

Gu Xici talked to Xiao Zi in his mind.

Xiao Zi was surprised: "What, the heroine in each of your previous worlds is the same person?"

"No, they are not the same person, but they all have one similarity."

Xiao Zi thought: "Similarities? The heroine in each world is a beautiful, upright and intelligent girl?"

"No, they are all the heroines of sadomasochistic novels."

Xiao Zi was silent: "......"

After teasing Xiao Zi, Gu Xici continued to look at the little brat. Look at how skinny he is. She will take good care of this old acquaintance, the heroine, in the future.

At least in the first small world, Lin Jinxi was nice to her, either treating her to milk tea or a luxurious massage chair.

From Lin Jinxi's perspective, the Imperial Master looked up to Lin Jinxi. Although her eyes were covered, her stunning beauty was still more beautiful than her father's imperial concubine.

His eyebrows and features were as pretty as paintings, his clothes were whiter than snow, and he looked extremely noble. Lin Jinxi lowered her head in shame, not daring to look up at this elegant state teacher.

"So scared?"

Seeing that the heroine was so scared, Gu Xici did not force her. Now she was the most powerful person in Xi Kingdom, so it would be better to let Lin Jinxi grow up under her protection without having to be a puppet emperor and live a happy life.

Gu Xici took off his cloak and put it on Lin Jinxi, and was about to turn around and leave. Lin Jinxi's thin hands grabbed the clean gown of the National Master. Gu Xici turned around and looked at the person who dared to pull her clothes.

"Ok?"

Only then did Gu Xici realize that there was fear in Lin Jinxi's eyes, but... more of it was ambition.

From Lin Jinxi's perspective, she was very afraid of the high and mighty Imperial Master, but the Imperial Master was busy with all kinds of affairs, so why would he come to the cold palace to talk to her, unless she was of use to him.

The Imperial Master saw that she was so scared and was about to leave in disappointment, but she couldn't let the Imperial Master leave. She didn't want to stay in the cold palace for the rest of her life, and she didn't want to be bullied by others.

She wanted to seize the opportunity of being the Imperial Master. Even if it meant becoming a pawn in the hands of the Imperial Master, she was willing. At least the eunuchs and palace maids would no longer bully her, and she would not go hungry or cold.

"From today on, I will make you king."

Gu Xici chuckled, took Lin Jinxi's hand and walked out of the cold palace. Since Lin Jinxi was unwilling to be ordinary, she would plant fruit trees for Lin Jinxi, pick the fruits herself, and Lin Jinxi would only be responsible for eating.

Lin Jinxi couldn't believe that the banished immortal-like Imperial Master would hold her hand. She was so scared that she wanted to take her hand back, but she couldn't bear to do so. The Imperial Master's hands were very soft and warm.

And what did the Imperial Master mean when he just said to help her become king?

Along the way, Lin Jinxi didn't dare to look around. After passing through many palaces, Gu Xici took Lin Jinxi's hand and came to the emperor's bedroom.

"This looks like father's bedroom. Does father want to see me?" Lin Jinxi thought in her heart.

"From today on, you will live here, and the palace maids and eunuchs will be at your disposal."

Gu Xici rubbed Lin Jinxi's dry hair and quickly withdrew his hand. It had been a long time since he had washed, and fortunately it didn't stink.

"National Master...what about Father?"

Lin Jinxi was a little at a loss. She noticed that the imperial teacher withdrew his hand with disgust. The weather was very cold in winter, there was no firewood in the cold palace, and washing with cold water would cause catching a cold. There was no imperial doctor or medicine in the cold palace.

"He was killed by the rebels. You are now the legitimate heir. Your coronation ceremony will be held in three days. You should prepare well."

Gu Xici's voice was clear, like pine and cypress trees covered with snow in the cold wind, which scared Lin Jinxi.

The coronation ceremony? They wanted her to be the emperor. She was just a princess, and she knew nothing, couldn't read, and didn't know how to handle state affairs.

"Don't be afraid. I will always be by your side until you become a qualified emperor."

Gu Xici was just about to touch Lin Jinxi's little bean sprout, but suddenly he thought of something and withdrew his hand.

"Come, fetch some water for the princess to wash."

The maids in the palace performed the maid's etiquette and left the bedroom. In a short while, the wooden bathtub was filled with hot water. Gu Xici took the flower basket from the maid and poured the petals into the water. The red petals spread on the water.

Gu Xici put his hand into the water, the water temperature was just right. He looked up at Lin Jinxi behind the screen, wondering why she hadn't changed her clothes yet.

"Master Imperial Master, the princess refuses to take off her clothes, and I dare not force her."

A palace maid came to Gu Xici and explained that Lin Jinxi refused to cooperate.

Gu Xici walked behind the screen, and Lin Jinxi covered her clothes tightly with an expression that said, "You want to take advantage of me."

Gu Xici asked the maid: "Where is the maid who has been with the princess?"

The maid replied truthfully: "Master Imperial Master, the low-ranking maid is outside the palace."
