Kill the sadistic male protagonist and become the emperor

Looking back, it was indeed the black and white evil spirits.

But things are different now. This Black Impermanence is now a high and mighty emperor.

The drunken Chen Gongzheng spotted the young man in black and started to salute him, "Your humble servant pays respects..."

The young man in black raised his hand and stopped him in time: "Today is the Double Ninth Festival, Chen Zhongcheng, let's put aside all those red tape for the time being."

Since the last Fengshan Ceremony at Mount Hua, many common people have witnessed the royal appearance and recognized the young man in black as one of the princes of the current dynasty.

At that moment, whether it was officials or common people, as well as the group of rich men who had just recited poems, all rushed over like a tide, surrounded the young man in black and Ren Baozhi, and wanted to pay their respects one after another.

The young man in black, still smiling, stopped him. "Everyone, I didn't come to Leyouyuan today to show off. I just wanted to celebrate the Double Ninth Festival with everyone. Your greetings like this make it seem like I'm ruining your fun. So please don't bother with the formalities."

Everyone was startled when they heard this.

Normally, all the officials acted arrogantly, and even the minor clerks bossed the people around, but this prince was so approachable.

However, both the people and the officials still knelt down after hearing this.

Princes can be humble to others, but they must abide by etiquette.

Looking at the people crawling on the ground, the young man in black felt helpless. He did not like to perform formalities, and he did not want to see people kneeling. "Everyone, stand up."

Everyone responded in unison: "Thank you, Prince!"

The young man in black waved his hand and said, "It's better to relax during the Double Ninth Festival. You can all go away now."

When the prince spoke, the people dared not disobey and they all retreated, but they still glanced at the prince from time to time.

The young man in black walked up to Ren Baozhi and said with a smile, "Just now, among all the people in Leyouyuan, you were the only one who didn't kneel down. Why is that?"

Ren Baozhi smiled back, "I dare not disobey the prince's words. If the prince doesn't allow me to kneel, I will obey your orders."

"It's interesting."

At this time, Long Aotian walked out from the crowd and gave the black-clad youth a crooked smile: "Princess, you are in a good mood today. I wonder if you would do me the honor of playing a drinking game with us?"

Prince? Princess?!

Ren Baozhi looked at the young man in black in shock, and her brain froze on the spot.

Not only Ren Baozhi, but the onlookers not far away were also shocked. They thought the prince, who was so approachable, had suddenly turned into a princess!

Everyone was stunned and couldn't recover. They looked at each other and then started discussing in low voices.

"This is...Princess Qianqiu?"

"Oh, I remember now. During our last trip to Mount Hua, she was at the head of all the princes."

"Now that you put it that way, it seems to be true."

"What's his name, Li something?"

"You think you can call the princess by her name? I think you've become stupid from farming all day long."

Ren Baozhi heard everyone's comments and said in disbelief, "You... are Princess Qianqiu?"

"What? Do you have any objection to my identity?" Princess Qianqiu asked intriguingly.

"I've seen you wearing men's clothes..."

"Oh? I only knew that people have gender differences. How come I don't know that inanimate objects like clothes also have gender differences?" Princess Qianqiu interrupted Ren Baozhi.

"I spoke out of turn in a moment of desperation. Please forgive me, Princess." Although Ren Baozhi said the words of apology, he stood straight.

Princess Qianqiu said calmly, "Since you have spoken carelessly, I will give you a chance to rephrase your words."

"Princess Qianqiu acts freely and spontaneously, and should be a role model for women."

"Hahahahaha, great!" Princess Qianqiu's eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles, "What a free and easy-going person, what a role model for women!"

Seeing Princess Qianqiu so happy, Long Aotian invited her again, "We have prepared some excellent chrysanthemum wine. It's refreshing and sweet, and it complements your carefree demeanor. I wonder if you would be so kind as to have some?"

"I heard that Jiang Tangtang is with you today?"

"Exactly."

"Schoolmaster Long has invited me so kindly, so I will respectfully obey your command. However..." Princess Qianqiu pointed at Ren Baozhi, "I will take her with me."

This time it was Ren Baozhi's turn to be surprised: "Ah? Me?"

Seeing this, everyone started talking in low voices again.

"Whose daughter is this?"

"He seems to be the son of the newly promoted Chief Censor."

"There are many people with more prominent backgrounds than hers. Why was she chosen? What is her merit and ability?"

Chen Gongzheng took advantage of the opportunity to bring Chen Lanyue and Chen Gaojie to him, and said with a smile: "Since Princess has brought my daughter with her, you won't mind bringing two more."

"Mind." Princess Qianqiu said bluntly, "You—are not invited."

Upon hearing this, Chen Gongzheng and Chen Gaojie both turned pale and dared not speak a word.

Chen Lanyue looked aggrieved. She had been feeling suspicious when she saw Jiang Luobo getting close to the prince, but who would have thought that the prince would suddenly transform into a princess.

Aye forced her to appear before the princess again. Now she was rejected in public and lost face. She really hated Aye!

"You," Princess Qianqiu hooked her finger at Chen Lanyue, "come with us."

Chen Lanyue opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and then happily followed Princess Qianqiu.

Chen Gaojie was very angry when he saw that his two sisters were able to participate in the drinking game, but not only could he not participate, but he was also humiliated in public by Princess Qianqiu.

His face, covered in flesh, turned pale, and his eyes were bloodshot with anger.

He wanted to clench his fists, but couldn't because he had too much flesh. He became even angrier, but he was a coward, so he could only sulk.

On the other side, everyone sat on the ground around a colorful brocade tablecloth, on which were scattered exquisite cakes unique to the Double Ninth Festival, seasonal fruits, and several jars of chrysanthemum wine.

The elegant vase stands tall and graceful, with a few branches of dogwood and chrysanthemums inserted in it.

The princess sat on the throne, on her right was Ren Baozhi, on her left was Shangguan Hualiu, and next to Shangguan Hualiu sat Chen Lanyue.

Long Aotian raised a glass of wine, looked around, and said with a smile: "Today is the Double Ninth Festival. Let us toast to the princess together."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Everyone raised their glasses to the princess.

The princess did not refuse: "Go!"

Ren Baozhi had never drunk alcohol, but she was still curious about ancient wine. However, after taking a sip, her facial features wrinkled up. The clear and sweet taste was clearly bitter and extremely unpalatable.

She wanted to observe everyone's expressions after drinking to see if they really liked drinking this crappy wine, but she found that Long Aotian was looking at her, his crooked mouth was now tightly pursed into a diagonal line, and his favorability level dropped to 7%.

Oh? You don't like my drinking?

Ren Baozhi looked back unwillingly, raised the glass and took another sip slowly. Hiss, it was so bitter.

But her expression was calm and composed, while Long Aotian was so angry that his mouth became even more crooked, and his favorability rating dropped by another 1%.

Ren Baozhi sneered in her heart.

How? How about rating her using the favorability rating?

Long Aotian was really meddling too much. They had only met once before, and it was not the place for such an arrogant and stupid creature to judge her own actions.

As long as the favorability is not full 100, she will not be forced into the plot. Now that the favorability is not even 10%, she doesn't care at all.

Thinking of this, she smiled contemptuously and took another sip of wine.

The square-faced young man sitting next to Long Aotian said, "If it were just drinking, it would be really boring. Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and the chrysanthemums are blooming proudly in the frost. Why not write a poem on the theme of 'chrysanthemum'? Since we have a beautiful woman present, let's keep the rules simple. Those who can't answer will drink a glass as a penalty. How about that?"

"Jiang Dalang has a point."

"As expected, he is the most talented man in Chang'an!"
