Playing the Pig and Eating the Tiger: My Funny System is Too Fierce

"Let go of the man in black!"

Su Qing rushed forward and stopped the assassin who was about to kill and silence him.

[Ding! Critical moment]

This man in black is very important

【Suggestion: Leave them alive】

"Why?" Mo Yunchen frowned.

"Look at his eyes," Su Qing said, "he seems to have something to say."

The man in black really spoke: "I...I know a secret!"

【Ding! Important clue】

【The secret will be revealed soon】

【Suggestion: Listen carefully】

"Speak." Mo Yunchen said coldly.

"Actually...actually, we are not from the Northern Di people," the man in black said in a trembling voice, "We are the former subordinates of the late queen!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

[Ding! Major discovery]

Identity Reversal

【Suggestion: Ask for details】

"What do you mean?" Su Qing and Mo Yunchen asked in unison.

"The late queen was actually framed," the man in black said, "She left behind not only the jade pendant, but also..."

Before he could finish his words, a cold arrow suddenly came flying through the air!

[Ding! Danger is coming]

Someone wants to kill someone to silence them

【Suggestion: Take shelter immediately】】

"Be careful!" Mo Yunchen held Su Qing in his arms.

The man in black had been shot by an arrow and fell in a pool of blood.

Before he died, he said with difficulty: "Underground...Underground Palace..."

【Ding! Key Tips】

【Location: Underground Palace】

【Suggestion: Remember the clues】

"Underground palace?" Su Qing looked at Mo Yunchen, "There is an underground palace in the imperial palace?"

"Yes," Mo Yunchen narrowed his eyes, "that's where emperors of all dynasties buried their secrets."

At this moment, the jade pendant lit up again!

[Ding! Jade pendant reacts]

【New information】

【Suggestion: Check the content】

A map appeared on the jade pendant!

It’s the route map to the underground palace!

"It seems," Su Qing said with a smile, "we have to go back to the capital."

[Ding! Mission updated]

[Objective: Explore the Underground Palace]

【Recommendation: Be prepared】

On the way back to Beijing, the two kept discussing this new discovery.

"So the late queen was actually wronged?" Su Qing asked.

"Well," Mo Yunchen said solemnly, "and the people behind this are still active."

"Could it be..." Su Qing suddenly thought of something, "Is it related to the current emperor?"

【Ding! Important speculation】

This is a sensitive topic.

【Recommendation: Discuss with caution】

Mo Yunchen glanced at her and asked, "Do you think so too?"

"Otherwise, why would they care so much about the jade pendant?" Su Qing analyzed, "And the skills of those assassins..."

"It does look like a royal secret guard." Mo Yunchen continued.

[Ding! The reasoning is correct]

But it's dangerous

[Advice: Proceed with caution]

“Then we…”

"Don't worry," Mo Yunchen held her hand, "I'm here."

"I'm not worried," Su Qing blinked, "I'm just wondering whether I should tell the Queen Mother?"

[Ding! Tactical Analysis]

Seeking the Queen Mother’s support

【Recommendation: Consider carefully】

"No rush," Mo Yunchen said, "Let's go to the underground palace first."

"Okay," Su Qing nodded, "but my husband has to promise me one thing."

"What's up?"

“Don’t leave me behind.”

[Ding! Time to act cute]

[Prince: My heart melts]

【Suggestion: Continue to act cute】

Mo Yunchen laughed: "You..."

"I'm serious!" Su Qing pouted, "You sent me away last time."

"Okay, okay," Mo Yunchen surrendered, "I'll take you with me."

[Ding! Sweetness achieved]

[Prince: Always Pampered]

【Recommendation: Enjoy with peace of mind】

After returning to the capital, the two began to secretly investigate the entrance to the underground palace.

“It is said to be in the northwest corner of the palace…”

“It’s heavily guarded…”

"Every fifteenth day of the month, someone would go to burn incense..."

[Ding! Intelligence gathering]

[Location of the underground palace determined]

Recommendation: Make a plan

"I have an idea," Su Qing said suddenly.

"explain."

"How about..." Su Qing showed a sly smile, "We pretend to be people burning incense?"

Mo Yunchen's eyes lit up: "Okay."

[Ding! Plan made]

[Prince: Good Cooperation]

【Suggestion: Refine the plan】

At this moment, the Queen Mother suddenly summoned him.

"Yun Chen, Qing'er," the Queen Mother said solemnly, "I have something to say."

"Mother?"

"Regarding the late queen..." The Queen Mother took a deep breath, "Actually, I know a little bit about it."

[Ding! New truth]

[The Queen Mother is aware]

【Suggestion: Listen carefully】

It turned out that the late queen had discovered a shocking secret.

This secret concerns the foundation of the entire dynasty.

But before she could say anything,... "

[Ding! The secret deepens]

Dynasty Secrets

【Suggestion: Keep it in mind】

"So the jade pendant is the key?" Su Qing asked.

"Yes," the Queen Mother nodded, "and you are the chosen one."

"Then let's go to the underground palace and take a look," Mo Yunchen said, "Does the Queen Mother have any suggestions?"

[Ding! Seeking help]

[Empress Dowager: Powerful Support]

【Suggestion: Listen to opinions】

"Be careful of the emperor," the queen mother whispered. "He has been acting... very strangely lately."

Su Qing and Mo Yunchen exchanged a glance. Sure enough!

【System prompt】

Su Qing: ...Your system actually became serious at the critical moment?

【Tip: Remember to take me with you! 】

Looking at the palace gate in front of her, Su Qing suddenly said, "Husband."

"Um?"

"No matter what happens, I'll be with you."

Mo Yunchen took her into his arms: "I am the same."
