C1 Worry
The rainy night is a good time to kill.
Yan Wenyan liked this kind of night, holding an oil-paper umbrella and taking a sheathed sword to kill people.
Who was Yan Wenyan going to kill tonight?
A youth of the imperial clan.
Tonight, he was going to kill two imperial clans, so his sword would be very fast.
The new emperor of the Ming Dynasty hurriedly took over the throne in a flurry.
However, this emperor was seriously ill in August and passed away in October. He was nineteen years old.
This young emperor had been in power for five months. He had no heirs and no heir to the throne.
Subsequently, the capital city's commander received orders from the Cabinet and Office of Royal Affair: the entire capital city was banned for five days. No one knew the reason for this.
King Lin was the late emperor's third child and the new emperor's half-brother.
King Lin was twenty-two years old this year. He did not like to study literature or martial arts. He usually only liked to sleep. That was why the late emperor didn't like him. He only gave him the title of prince, but he didn't have a fief.
However, the new emperor was kind by nature and gave Ba Shu to King Lin as his fief.
At this moment, the new emperor suddenly passed away. King Lin, who was about to go to his fief, was fretting in his study.
After fretting for a while, he prepared to sleep for a while. Just as he went to bed, someone knocked on the door of the study.
"Come in." King Lin and Zhou Jun sighed helplessly.
King Lin Concubine pushed the door open and entered.
Under the dim candlelight, her delicate face had a bitter expression.
King Lin Consort's name was Lee Wu. She was the daughter of the master of Sword Cleansing Pavilion in the Wu Yue Country.
It was said that King Lin's birth mother, Concubine Lan, begged the previous Emperor to betroth Lee Wu to Zhou Jun in order to facilitate this marriage.
"Yes, I have made some progress. I know how to knock on the door. Is there anything I can do for you?" Zhou Jun slowly put on his shoes and clothes.
"The Emperor has passed away." Lee Wu pulled a chair and sat down.
"I know." Zhou Jun did not even raise his head and continued to put on his shoes.
"Don't you want to think of a countermeasure?" Lee Wu really wanted to raise her leg to kick Zhou Jun and kick this unambitious guy onto the dragon throne in the Imperial Palace.
"The throne is not up to me. What countermeasure should I think of?" Zhou Jun began to put on his clothes.
Lee Wu's eyes lit up when she heard this. "So you have thought about it?"
"I am old. The cabinet ministers and relatives, as well as that empress dowager, do not want me to ascend to the throne." Zhou Jun looked at Lee Wu's face openly and did a simple analysis with a calm tone.
Lee Wu's eyes dimmed again after he spoke.
"Do you want to sleep?" Zhou Jun asked again.
"Get lost." Lee Wu glared at him and then left in a hurry. The door was not even closed.
"Then should I go and find you tonight or you come and find me?" Zhou Jun shouted at her back.
"Hmph." Lee Wu paused for a moment, then snorted again.
"You are really angry." Zhou Jun got off the bed.
He smiled, but there was no change in his expression in the mirror.
Maybe it was because the soul of the transmigrator was not compatible with the body.
Zhou Jun had transmigrated, and he had only been in this world for three days.
He carefully received some information about this world. After confirming that his face did not change from before, he calmly accepted the fact that he had transmigrated.
Then he moved to the study room to avoid being discovered by that Concubine King Lin.
"Your Highness, do you want to close the door?" The two maids outside the study poked their heads in and said softly.
"Don't close the door, I'm going to find the Princess." Zhou Jun casually responded.
"Yes."
Zhou Jun was about to walk out of the study, but just as he was about to step over the threshold, he paused.
The two maids did not hear any footsteps for a long time. They carefully looked up at Zhou Jun.
They saw that His Highness King Lin was still expressionless, but his eyes were staring at the little maid's shoe on his left.
The two maids only felt that it was strange, but they did not dare to disturb him, so they continued to lower their heads.
"Close the door." Zhou Jun returned to the study and ordered the two maids.
In the face of the ever-changing King Lin, the two maids could only obey.
After the door closed, Zhou Jun expressionlessly sat in front of the desk.
His "cheat" seemed to be in place.
He sat in front of the desk and looked down to the left.
There was a small frame there, and there were lines of tiny words in the frame.
[No.249 Soul Loading Failed. 】
[No.250 Soul Loading Abnormal]
No. 250 Soul Loading Abnormal!
[250th...]
[Loading Successful!]
[Will soul number 250 activate the system?]
Zhou Jun saw these small words clearly. Although he could not make any expression on his face, he still felt very awkward.
Number 250, are you really calling him stupid?
Forget it, at least it's a cheat.
"Activate the system." Zhou Jun said in his heart.
The small frame responded immediately, and the line of small words rolled quickly.
[System in progress...]
[The System is activating abnormalities.]
[The System is activating the abnormality!]
[The system has been activated successfully.]
[Soul No.250, please prepare to receive it.] ...
After Zhou Jun read the last line of text, his heart stopped beating.
[System abnormalities.]
[Discovered external invasion.] ]
[System stripping...]
[System stripping failed.] ]
[Second plan initiated. 】
[Kill the host.]
The host is dead. ]
[System stripped.] 】
[System stripping failed.] 】
[Self-destruct program activated.] 】
[Initiation failed.] 】
[Recycling signal being sent...]
Recycle signal transmitting successful.
Late at night, the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
At this moment, the capital was a little noisy. It was said that the Zhuang King had been assassinated.
The officials did not find the assassin, so they began to search the entire city.
Yan Wenyan did not hide, because he did not kill the assassin.
If the employer died, the person was indeed dead. Even if he did not kill the person, so what?
Since one died, it was fine as long as he killed the other.
There was still a lot of time left for him to kill today.
...
It was uncomfortable, really uncomfortable.
Zhou Jun woke up muddle-headed, accompanied by pain. It was as if there was a soldering iron twisting in his chest.
"F * ck!" Zhou Jun covered his chest with his left hand and could not help but curse.
He originally thought that it was a cheat, but the cheat took his life.
Zhou Jun moved his palm in front of him.
Under the candlelight, there were no palm prints on his white palm.
There was only a cluster of blooming red rose patterns on his palm.
This cluster of blood-colored rose flowers seemed to be really blooming. Zhou Jun was stunned by what he saw.
Immediately after, he felt his vision blur again.
About two seconds later, his vision returned to normal.
Zhou Jun looked at his left palm again. His palm had returned to normal, the palm print had returned, and his chest no longer hurt.
Zhou Jun did not know what to say.
He only remembered that the system had successfully loaded him. After that, there was only unforgettable pain left.
Zhou Jun looked down to the bottom left again. The small frame was no longer there.
So his cheat had run away from home?
Bang!
The more Zhou Jun thought about it, the angrier he got. Finally, he slapped the desk.
The desk broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.
The candle flame in the study was extinguished, and the study became pitch black.
"Your Highness, are you alright?"
The window of the study was blown open by a gust of wind, and a black shadow flew into the study with a swoosh.
Zhou Jun, who was still stunned on the chair, put a hand on his shoulder. A stream of warmth flowed into his body and calmed his mind.
Under the light of the corridor, Zhou Jun saw the person's face clearly. This was a guard who specialized in protecting his safety in the dark.
At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and two maids walked in with slight panic.
"Your Highness, are... are you alright?"
"The desk is broken, I'm fine." Zhou Jun said with an expressionless face, as if there was really only one small thing that had happened.
There were three people here, and six people hiding in the dark...
Eh? How did I know there were six people in the dark? Zhou Jun was very surprised.
"All of you can withdraw." Zhou Jun waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
"Yes."
Secret guard flew out of the window and closed it.
The remaining two maids were still hesitating. "Your Highness, should we tidy up the room now?"
"Just light the lamp." Zhou Jun said.
"Yes." The two maids quickly lifted the candlestick on the floor and placed it on the small round table beside the bed.
The candle light scattered across the entire study.
The two maids slowly withdrew from the study and closed the book door.
Although the desk was gone, Zhou Jun was still sitting in his original position. He was deep in thought with his eyes closed.
He was surprised that he could clearly sense where the six people were hiding.
Two of them were hiding on the roof of the corridor outside the study, and one was hiding on the roof of the study. One was hiding on the roof of the study. The other was hiding in the garden in the courtyard outside the study. He was staring at the study in the rain. The remaining two people were hiding beside the two maids, but the maids did not notice.
Could this be his cheat? Zhou Jun was a little disappointed.
This was equivalent to a small map in the game. As long as it was within a 50-meter radius, animals with a surface area of more than 0.1 square meters would be displayed on the map.
"It's quite magical." Although he was not satisfied, it was still better than nothing.
The blood red rose that bloomed on his left palm just now, that slap of his could break the desk, this seemed to be his cheat.
The desk in King Lin's study was made of an entire piece of sandalwood. The thickness of the desk was ten centimeters.
It was this kind of desk that Zhou Jun broke with a slap. Furthermore, he didn't feel any pain.
There was a saying that "martial arts" existed in this world.
Although he had only been in this world for three days and did not know much about it, he knew that Princess Lin knew martial arts.
However, she could not use her hands to break the desk. She needed external help to achieve this effect.
As for his seven secret guard, Zhou Jun expressed that he did not know them.
After all, he had been very careful during the past three days. He was afraid that others would find out that his body and soul had been swapped.
However, the secret guard just now could fly out of the window without even stepping on the window frame. Also, he had just transmitted a warm current to Zhou Jun's body. This person must have had "inner energy" or "true qi.
Therefore, the secret guard should be able to break this Fragrant Nanmu wooden desk.
As for the original body, Zhou Jun had not felt any' super power 'from his body for the past three days. He was no different from an ordinary person.
Zhou Jun lowered his head and looked at his own hand. The palm he used to slap the desk was his right hand, and the pattern of the blood red rose was on his left hand.
So... he wanted to slap something again to compare the effects.
His hand was itchy.
...
Late at night in the rain, Yan Wenyan finally arrived in front of the King Lin's Mansion.
The order to search for assassins had already alarmed the entire King Lin's Mansion. In the middle of the night, the King Lin's Mansion was brightly lit.
Yan Wenyan stopped in front of the King Lin's Mansion, but his night clothes were not wet by the rain.
It was as if there was a force on the surface of his body, blocking the dense rain.
Yan Wenyan was somewhat hesitant. Should he sneak into the King Lin's Mansion and kill someone, or should he just kill his way in through the door?
It was truly worrying.
