My chat group is full of female losers

Chapter 276 Preparations
Now that you have made up your mind, there is no need to think about anything else.

The most urgent task now is to confirm the results of this adventure and how much the correction value has been increased. After all, this is his only trump card against the heroine.

Chu Lu opened the chat group interface and checked the correction value information.

Modification: 35
Seeing this number, Chu Lu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

When dealing with the poisoning case in the imperial kitchen, catching A Ling only increased the correction value by ten points; but killing Jiang Miaoyan increased the correction value by twenty-five points at once.

"It seems that the heroine is indeed much more valuable than the marginal supporting roles." Chu Lu sighed.

He stood up, straightened his slightly messy dragon robe, restored the dignity that an emperor should have, and prepared to deal with the aftermath.

He called out, "Someone come!"

The eunuch guarding the door immediately trotted in and knelt down tremblingly: "Your servant is here."

"Pass on my order." Chu Lu said expressionlessly, "The eldest princess Jiang Miaoyan has a twisted mind and is rebellious and unjust. She killed important officials of the court and the commander of the imperial guards in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and today she even tried to kill the emperor. In order to protect myself, I had no choice but to kill her on the spot. Her crimes are obvious, and she deserves death! Spread the news inside and outside!"

"I obey, I obey!" The eunuch's voice was obviously trembling. After bowing his head, he rolled out, obviously frightened by the content of the decree. The news spread quickly, and the whole palace and even the court were in an uproar again.

However, this time the uproar was completely different from the previous public outrage.

With Jiang Miaoyan's death, the halo of the heroine that had shrouded everyone's hearts and distorted their perceptions completely dissipated. Many officials and palace maids who had been influenced by the halo and believed in Jiang Miaoyan and even campaigned for her before, now seemed to have just woken up from a dream.

They suddenly recalled Jiang Miaoyan's previous erratic and unreasonable behavior: her rudeness during the clan examination, the parrot farce at the banquet, and even the indecent assault case that was full of loopholes but made them believe it to be true...

All of a sudden, everyone realized what had happened, and emotions such as shame, anger, and fear surged in their hearts.

"So... So the eldest princess is such a person who confuses right and wrong!"

"We were so blind before! We were almost deceived by this crazy woman!"

"Your Majesty is wise! Killing this beast in time is a blessing for the country!"

"It's a pity that Commander Lin, the Grand Tutor, and Li Xueshi... died tragically at the hands of such a vicious woman!"

The public opinion turned around in an instant. All the previous accusations and doubts against Chu Lu disappeared, and were replaced by contempt and scolding of Jiang Miaoyan. The claim that Chu Lu was assassinated and killed was accepted by everyone as a matter of course, with almost no doubt.

Of course, these reversals of public opinion did not mean much to Chu Lu. He knew from the beginning to the end what kind of person Jiang Miaoyan was, and he also understood that those people were just poor creatures controlled by the halo.

What he needs to consider now is the next course of action.

"Although the correction value has been greatly improved, it is still far from being enough to fight against Fei Wu, right?" Chu Lu asked in his heart.

"Well. After all, she is one of the Four Heavenly Kings and a minister-level figure second only to Zhang Lan. If you want to offset her heroine's aura, you must increase the correction value to the maximum, to no less than one hundred." Qin Su said.

"We still need to improve the correction value as soon as possible." Chu Lu pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered something, hesitantly said: "Can we move forward with Zhang Wei's...

Apparently there are some secrets about that guy, but it was difficult to uncover them due to insufficient correction value.

Now that the correction value has risen to thirty-five points, I should be able to give it another try.

"Yes, it is indeed possible." Qin Su agreed. "As an important pawn planted by the spy organization in the Imperial Guards, he should be able to bring a lot of correction value after his story line is concluded. We can also pry some intelligence about the spy organization from him, which will help us take the initiative and speed up the process of obtaining correction value. Finally, the extra story line about him...if we are lucky, we may be able to dig out a lot of correction value."

"Pass the order," Chu Lu saw Qin Su's agreement, and immediately ordered outside the palace, "Bring Zhang Wei to the interrogation room of the imperial prison. I want to interrogate him personally."

"According to the order!"

After dealing with Zhang Wei’s affairs, Chu Lu thought of Fei Wu again.

That woman is now leading people around the world to hunt down the group leader who disguised himself as the immortal in the dream.

Although she was temporarily lured away by his trick, she is, after all, a core member of the organization and is very powerful, especially with that terrifying halo of the heroine... No one knows when she will discover the truth or find this place through other means.

"Qin Su, what's going on with Fei Wu..." Chu Lu frowned, "Can the method we used to invade the chat group last time still be used? I want to monitor her movements at all times."

"No." Qin Su immediately rejected this idea, her tone very serious, "We succeeded last time because Zi Yan and the others knew nothing about our abilities and methods, and were completely unprepared. But this time is different. I have investigated before, and the organization has obviously strengthened the firewall of the chat group. Although it is still possible to break through, there is a certain probability of being discovered, especially now that Fei Wu is on the scene, the probability is even higher."

Qin Su paused and added: "This ability is one of our few trump cards. It must be used at the most critical moment and we cannot take risks easily."

"I understand." Chu Lu was silent for a moment, and finally accepted this judgment.

It seems that all we can do now is wait passively.

This undoubtedly adds a bit of uncertainty to the already serious situation.

Chu Lu slowly leaned back in his chair and looked out the window. The sun was still bright, but the palace looked like a huge and solid cage in his eyes.

The road ahead is difficult...

At the same time, in a secret palace somewhere in the imperial palace.

Fei Wu looked at the empty ground in front of her and raised her eyebrows. She followed the clues left by Chu Lu in the imperial study and followed them all the way here, but the clues were completely cut off here.

"You're quite capable." Fei Wu said jokingly, "You hid really well. You even managed to keep it from me."

Fei Wu was not angry or anxious. She knew in her heart that even if he could hide for a while, what would it matter? Now that the copy had been completely blocked, could he still hide forever?

Fei Wu looked calm. She opened the chat group interface and found the temporary chat group used by the heroines of this copy to communicate with each other. She used her authority to forcibly join the group and directly became the group owner.

Fei Wu said, "Everyone, go online immediately and have a meeting." Her message was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples in the group. Several female protagonists reacted almost immediately, and their words were full of surprise and doubt.

The second princess couldn't help asking first, "Minister Feiwu? Why did you come to this instance in person? Did you block the instance just now?"

Concubine Li then asked, "Yes, Minister Feiwu, what's the matter with all this commotion?"

In addition, many heroines who were not in the imperial city also spoke in shock.

"Are there any new instructions from the organization?"

"Did something big happen outside?"

……

Fei Wu looked at the questions that instantly flooded the group and interrupted their guesses with a cold snort.

Fei Wu said, "Okay, everyone calm down. Yes, the copy has been temporarily blocked by me. I called you here because something big happened."

She didn't keep anyone in suspense and directly dropped the bombshell news.

Fei Wu said: "Jiang Miaoyan is dead."

As soon as these words were spoken, the group fell silent for a moment, and then an even greater uproar broke out.

The second princess was shocked and said, "Dead? She is the heroine! How could she be dead?"

Concubine Wan: "No way? Wasn't she so proud and powerful a few days ago, killing many indigenous characters? How could she die suddenly?"

Concubine Li asked directly: "Who killed Jiang Miaoyan? Minister, do you know the inside story?"

At this moment, the heroines outside the imperial city fell silent.

Many of them didn't know who Jiang Miaoyan was, let alone what had happened in the palace some time ago. Naturally, they couldn't keep up with the topic at all. With Fei Wu present, they didn't dare to ask questions casually and disrupt the rhythm of the conversation, so they could only stay silent.

Fei Wu waited for them to digest the news before continuing, "It was the group leader. He killed Jiang Miaoyan."

"Group leader?!" This name obviously shocked them more than the news of Jiang Miaoyan's death.

The second princess cried out in amazement: "Group leader?! He's here?!"

Concubine Wan's voice was filled with obvious fear: "Group leader... the legendary group leader who killed many heroines? How could he appear in this instance? Minister, then we..."

Concubine Li keenly grasped the suspicious point: "The group leader killed Jiang Miaoyan? Why? He and Jiang Miaoyan should have no intersection."

Concubine Xian asked, "Wait a minute, Emperor! Jiang Miaoyan has been constantly being humiliated by the Emperor recently, and she is so angry that she doesn't even care about her own storyline. Does she want the Emperor to give in? Could it be that... he is the group leader?"

Concubine Zhuang combined the previous information and guessed: "Could it be that Minister, you blocked the copy just to arrest this person?"

Fei Wu said: "That's right, the copy was sealed to prevent him from escaping. As for the group leader killing Jiang Miaoyan, it was not because he was the emperor, but to protect the emperor."

"Protect the emperor?" The second princess was the first to express confusion, "Why is there any need to protect that useless emperor?"

Fei Wu expressed her own speculation: "It should be to preserve the story line. This emperor is a key figure in the subsequent main storyline of this world. Once the emperor dies early, the main storyline will collapse. The group leader probably didn't want to see this situation, so he took action to eliminate Jiang Miaoyan who threatened the emperor."

Concubine Li was thoughtful: "I see... Speaking of which, the organization also mentioned that although the group leader's purpose is unclear, he seems to be very concerned about the protagonist of the dungeon. He doesn't want the main storyline to collapse, and he is also worried about affecting the protagonist of the dungeon, right?"

Concubine Wan asked worriedly, "Where is the leader now? Isn't he hiding in the palace?"

Fei Wu said: "That's why I summoned you - I don't know. Although I rushed here as quickly as possible, I was still a step late. And he is obviously very good at hiding, leaving only some half-true and half-false traces. It is very difficult to find him directly now, so I need your help."

The second princess immediately said, "Minister, please tell us what you need us to do!"

Others also expressed their opinions.

"We will definitely cooperate with the Minister in every possible way."

"Everything is up to the minister."

"I will obey your order."

Fei Wu nodded with satisfaction: "Very good. In short, since direct search is not possible, then use bait."

Concubine Zhuang reacted: "The minister is talking about... the emperor?"

Fei Wu said, "Yes. Since the group leader cares about the emperor's life or death, the emperor is the best bait for us to force him to show up. Our next plan is to revolve around the emperor. Find a way to put pressure on him, create a crisis, and force the group leader hiding in the dark to take action again. As long as he shows up, there will be a chance to catch him!"

The second princess seemed a little excited: "Using the emperor as bait to catch the group leader! This is a good idea!"

Imperial Concubine Wan was more cautious: "I will follow the Minister's instructions. However... please let the Minister know how to exert pressure and how to strike the right balance, so as to avoid accidentally hurting the Emperor and ruining the plan."

Fei Wu said: "Don't worry. For such an important matter, I will of course stay here and command it myself. You all..."

She was halfway through her words when her expression suddenly changed!
A trace of surprise and doubt flashed across Fei Wu's eyes. She suddenly looked up at the sky outside the palace. Ripples appeared in the copy space. Obviously someone was breaking in by force!
Fei Wu immediately said in the group: "The situation has changed! You guys stay quiet and wait, don't act rashly! I'll go out and take a look!"

After she finished speaking, without waiting for anyone else in the group to respond, she disappeared from the spot in a flash.

Only a group of heroines were left in the group, looking at each other in bewilderment.
