All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert

"Host, happy birthday to you~(? ?? ? ?? ) ? ????" Early in the morning, the system played "Happy Birthday" in Lin Ruan's mind.

Lin Ruan: I was indeed very happy before I was woken up.

"Dear Xiao Qiqi, this is my 35th birthday, and you don't have any expression?" Lin Ruan asked.

System: "Ah? What can I say?"

∠(°ゝ°)

"Is thirty-five a big birthday?" it asked.

Lin Ruan didn't care about answering the system's questions. Lin Ruan understood that all the things he wanted had to be asked for on his own initiative.

She directly proposed: "As my birthday gift, you kill the current emperor."

System: "You killed something on your birthday?"

Lin Ruan: "Yeah."

System: (? ? ?) OK

It had grown accustomed to Lin Ruan's ever-changing ideas. In short, he was constantly making trouble and never satisfied. But it couldn't help but complain, "If I'd known it would be so troublesome, you might as well have just rebelled!"

"I don't want it!" Lin Ruan said.

The system said, "Yes, yes, you didn't rebel, you stole the country. You killed the previous emperor, and then the eight princes and princesses. Apart from the current emperor, there's only a six-year-old child left. Now you're going to kill the current emperor, and you don't think it's a problem at this point!"

Lin Ruan retorted, "I gave them a recipe for a tranquilizing soup, but who could have imagined they'd enjoy it so much that every master in the palace would be poisoned by lead. Can you blame me for that? Wouldn't killing them be easier than rebellion? And I'll still have a good reputation!"

System: In the final analysis, I just think that traitors have a bad reputation!

╭ (╯ ^ ╰) ╮

The system's anger increased the toxicity in the emperor's body.

Two months later, the emperor, who had been seriously ill and unconscious, slowly opened his eyes and saw Lin Ruan beside the bed.

"Imperial sister?" His voice was so dry and soft that he could barely hear it, but Lin Ruan heard it. She poured a glass of warm water and helped the emperor drink it.

"Ahem, Imperial Sister, why are you here?" he asked. "Why are you wearing military uniform?"

"Royal brother, you've been in a coma for two months, and several cousins are ready to make a move. I'm here to protect you." Lin Ruan briefly explained the current situation. "I've informed the Empress Dowager. Now that the General of the State has returned to the capital to defend it, three thousand of my private soldiers have entered the palace to protect the Empress Dowager, the little prince, and you. There are one thousand outside your palace, five hundred with the Empress Dowager, five hundred with the little prince, and another one thousand scattered around to protect the others."

No matter how kind the emperor was, he was still the emperor. He asked, "Where did you get your three thousand private soldiers?" The princess only had one thousand private soldiers.

Lin Ruan said frankly: "My mother left me one thousand, I have one thousand myself, and my uncle left me one thousand. What's wrong, my brother?"

Of course it wasn’t given by the original owner’s mother and the late emperor, and of course it wasn’t just three thousand, but there was no need to let the emperor know about these things.

The emperor said nothing more. At this moment he felt both safe and unsafe.

"Where is Shan Dequan?" asked the emperor. Shan Dequan was the chief eunuch beside him.

"He's waiting outside the door. Did your royal brother call him?" Lin Ruan asked.

"No need." The emperor said, "I can feel that this body is just a last gasp. Sister, if I die, can you help me protect Zhen'er and ascend the throne?" He asked tentatively, his fingers slowly climbing up the yellow belt beside the bed.

"Royal brother, you and my uncle have been sincere to me, and my mother is the Princess of the Nation. It is reasonable for me to tell you that I can do what I can, but I can only say that I will try my best, Royal brother," Lin Ruan said. "Back then, Prince Consort Xie died of a serious illness from a strange poison from the northern border. I always ate and lived with him, but I was in good health and ate little, so I barely managed to stay alive."

"Over the years, I've seen many so-called miracle doctors, and they all said there was no cure for this poison. So I can only guarantee that I'll protect you as long as I live."

Lin Ruan lowered his head and said, "I beg your forgiveness, brother."

"Ahem... Shan Dequan, go and invite the director of the Imperial Hospital." said the emperor.

Lin Ruan did not stop him. Under the operation of the system, no one could detect the second pulse condition.

"Imperial sister, I'm sorry for your hardship." Reassured by the imperial physician's affirmation, the emperor coughed twice and said, "Go and call the Empress Dowager, the Duke of De, and the Prince's tutor and the Prime Minister to come to me."

Lin Ruan knew that he was going to entrust his child to someone else.

"Okay, I'll take my leave." Lin Ruan said.

"Imperial sister, you stay too," said the emperor.

The system's intervention finally allowed the emperor to dispel his suspicion and vigilance towards Lin Ruan.

Lin Ruan obeyed and stayed. Soon, the Empress Dowager, Prince De, the Prince's tutor, and the Prime Minister all arrived at the Emperor's bedroom.

The emperor announced his will in front of everyone, appointing the seventh prince Zhen as the crown prince and appointing Lin Ruan as the regent princess, with the title of guardian of the country, to assist the new emperor. Not long after the will was read, the emperor passed away.
