After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 226: Infinite Power
Fang Lingchu cried.

She's not happy at all!

She doesn't like so many men.
"But they were all left behind by the princess herself!"

Duan Qianze looked at Fang Lingchu with a half-smile, and his words were tinged with sourness.

[Guagua, come out and tell me, why did you make me choose a man?]

[Host, don't get excited, don't get excited. They're all handsome men, and it looks quite nice watching them eat.]

I'm unhappy. I don't like this harem feeling.

[But host, if you let them out, given the plot of the devoted second male lead, the future developments won't be good for us.]

【…】

Speechless

Fang Lingchu could only resign herself to dealing with the few people.

She used to hate going to the palace, but now she wants to stay there every day.

……

Upon hearing the emperor's words, Fang Lingchu looked at him with a half-smile and then said, "May I not go?"

"Can't"

The emperor said this very simply.

"I understand. Eunuch Gao, please bring some more snacks and tea."

"Yes, Princess."

Even the emperor couldn't stand it anymore.

"Xianling, is there no food left in the princess's residence?"

Fang Lingchu looked up and glanced at the emperor, but said nothing.

Continue eating.

Seeing her like this, the emperor dared not speak.

The next day

Autumn hunting was one of the pleasures enjoyed by noblemen and emperors.

All officials of the fifth rank or above and their families can go together.

But Fang Lingchu is having another problem.

"Princess, outside..."

Peach didn't know what to say, so she just lowered her head.

"Stop stammering. Just say what's on your mind. Can't you be a little more composed?"

Peach Blossom gets a headache just looking at these peaches.

Peach didn't want to either.
The princess simply doesn't like those young men, and they've come again today; what can she do?

Fang Lingchu didn't care about any of this.

However, Peach Blossom was her head maid, and she generally wouldn't stop her from disciplining these unruly maids.

"What's going on outside?"

Cherry lowered her head and said, "The five young masters outside have arrived and said..."

"say what?"

Fang Lingchu frowned as she looked at Mi Tao.

"If you want to see the princess, please go out and see her."

Peach thinks it's best to let them say it themselves!
Just then, Fang Lingchu finished getting ready.

"Alright, I'll go take a look."

Fang Lingchu didn't want to make things difficult for the girl, so she followed her out.

Then came the surprise.

The five people stood in neat rows, dressed in very nice clothes. When they saw Fang Lingchu come out, they bowed in unison.

It can't be said that they were perfectly aligned, since there was one special case among them.

Duan Qianze was lazy and didn't stand properly, nor did he bow in the standard way that others did.

Seeing her like this, Peach Blossom couldn't help but want to say something.

But since he was the princess's man, she couldn't say anything.

She endured it...

Fang Lingchu was somewhat confused about what they were trying to do.

"What are you going to do?"

"Your Highness, I would like to go hunting with you in the autumn."

Others echoed this sentiment.
“I want to go too.”

"I want to too..."

Fang Lingchu felt a headache coming on as she looked at all the people who wanted to go with her!
"What are you going to do?"

[Guagua, why are these men so annoying?]

[Host, they're doing this for you.]

Fang Lingchu rolled her eyes and then said, "That's not what you said that time."

You really need to bring one this time.

【why? 】

[The plot-driven tragedy involving the emperor and crown prince is back again.]

【What? 】

Fang Lingchu's surprised voice was so loud that it hurt everyone's ears.

Some people couldn't help but pick their ears.

Fang Lingchu was too surprised to notice the subtle actions of those people.

Still amazed that two people were killed off simultaneously in the plot.

[No, why?! It's a plot-driven death involving two people!]

There's nothing we can do! The Crown Prince killed the female lead from the northern desert, so we can only follow the Emperor's plot and kill her too.

【I……】

Fang Lingchu had nothing to say.
The happier she was when the Crown Prince killed that woman from the northern desert, the more she regrets it now!

If both of them are killed off by plot devices, wouldn't the situation be more serious and last longer?

Fang Lingchu was terrified at the thought of plot-driven deaths!

[It hasn't been long, so if it's serious, it should be alright.]

The main system itself doesn't know either!
So you don't know either, right? Do you know the time?

I don't know, but it was probably halfway there from where you were going.

Okay, so what does this have to do with them?

Fang Lingchu quickly accepted the plot-driven death of the emperor and his companions.

However, looking at these men, she didn't understand.

Bu Xiangyu has a special ability; if you go there, he can help you.

Upon hearing his name, Bu Xiangyu was overjoyed, his puppy-dog eyes instantly lighting up, as if to say, "I'm so useful!"
What abilities?

[He possesses immense strength and is incredibly skilled in martial arts. In the original storyline, he single-handedly slaughtered an entire city on horseback because of his cousin.]

[If you're so capable, why didn't you join the army?]

He wanted to, but his stepmother wouldn't allow it. As a child, he was tormented to the point of near death because of his abilities, and he never spoke of it to anyone afterward. If his stepmother wanted to deliberately ruin him, how could she possibly give him a chance to go to the army?

Okay, I get it. If that's the case, why would his mother send him to me?

【this……】

The system is a little embarrassed!

These people weren't originally meant for Fang Lingchu; he secretly arranged for them to be given to her.

That's why they sent these few to her.

Seeing her like this, Fang Lingchu understood everything.

[Guagua! Lust is a double-edged sword. If you were a decent human being, anyone in this world who is even slightly good-looking would be at your feet.]

The system dared not speak, but she admitted that she was the one who wanted to touch anything she saw that looked good.

But it was just a thought; how could she possibly do such a thing? She couldn't help but refute it.

No, I did all this for you, for your Dragon Kingdom!

Fang Lingchu wanted to say something, but Tao Hua had already looked up at the sky several times.

Finally, having exhausted all other options, he said, "Your Highness, it's time to depart."

Hearing Tao Hua's words, Fang Lingchu snapped out of her reverie and said, "They're here. Bu Xiangyu, come with me. The rest of you, hurry back."

Then the group set off in a grand procession.

There was a magnificent carriage at the entrance, with rows of imperial guards standing in formation and four maids standing there. Peach Blossom helped the person up.

Bu Xiangyu stood there, unsure whether he should go up.

Fang Lingchu looked at Bu Xiangyu, who was standing there awkwardly, and asked, "Do you want to come with me or ride a horse by yourself?"

Bu Xiangyu didn't expect her to ask for his opinion.

"May I go with the princess?"

Bu Xiangyu raised his very pale and thin face, which was flushed.

Fang Lingchu was suddenly confronted with that face, and those affectionate eyes made her feel completely overwhelmed.

He swallowed hard and said, "Come on up."
