The emperor's words were like a huge stone, setting off huge waves in the hearts of everyone in the palace.
Are we going to choose girls from aristocratic families to enter the palace again?
Wasn't the last time the year before last?
Lu Xinlan squeezed Lu Xinran's wrist tightly, and she guessed the emperor's intention almost instantly.
Is he still planning to take Lu Xinran into the harem? !
But their grandmother was not here, and they didn't even have anyone they could discuss with in the palace.
Lu Xinran's wrist was pinched so much that it hurt. She didn't know why Lu Xinlan suddenly lost her composure.
Her background shouldn't allow her to enter the harem, right?
The emperor's move was obviously intended to check the courtiers, and Lu Xinlan's entry into the palace obviously failed to achieve this purpose.
She frowned slightly and thought for a long time. Finally, she realized belatedly that the person the other party was worried about was herself!
"Tongzi!"
"Host, what's wrong with you?"
"If, I mean if, I was brought into the harem by the Dog Emperor, will the melons in the harem be enough? Will it allow me to save enough health points?"
If she remembered correctly, most of her health points were provided by those murders.
Although there are many concubines in the harem, they are far from the level of three thousand beauties.
The emperor was not considered lecherous, and there were only a few dozen concubines of high rank in the palace.
Even if each of them has a big melon for her to eat, the health points each can provide are also quite limited.
Even if a person provides five days, she will not survive for a year...
The system obviously didn't expect such a situation to happen. It sizzled as if it might break for a long time before saying anxiously.
"Host, you must find a way and never enter the harem. If you don't have melons to eat, you will die."
Lu Xinran sighed, "Everyone is destined to die. If this happens, I will be reincarnated peacefully. But you, what will you do if I die?"
The system was so panicked, "You can't die. If you can't die and let me escape naturally, I, I will split into countless fragments and scatter to everyone. Then the world will be in chaos and I will never be able to go back." .”
The system started to cry as it spoke. Lu Xinran said: "..."
Is artificial intelligence so...intelligent?
Still crying.
Also, will it crack when she dies?
So magical?
At the top, the veins in the emperor's big hand holding the tea bowl are exposed.
What is this, threatening him? !
[Hey, would my sister be very sad if she knew that I would live less than a year? After all, I am her closest relative here. 】
[If I had known it earlier, I would have just pretended that nothing happened last night. Then when I die, she should only have a little regret, and she can still continue to be the eldest daughter of the Lu family. 】
Lu Xinlan was still squeezing her wrist tightly, and Zhang Shui'er recovered from her shock and became worried.
What is the logic? How can you die if you don’t eat melon? This melon-eating system is so evil!
Also, if it is broken into countless pieces, then wouldn’t everyone be able to know the privacy of others and then have no privacy at all?
The queen lowered her eyes and looked at the tea in the bowl, smiling lightly.
She has long lost any place in the emperor's heart, and the emperor will not accept a word of her words. In this case, why should she bother.
In the palace, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
All the concubines lowered their heads, otherwise they would not reveal any emotion.
The queen couldn't even comment on the selection of girls from aristocratic families into the palace, let alone them.
It's just that... the person who said he wanted to be selected was the emperor, and he was also the one with a livid face and angry eyes now.
The concubine didn't understand and didn't dare to say anything. She lowered her head and didn't dare to take a breath.
In Lu Xinran's heart, she had already begun to make arrangements for herself.
[What a pity, I still can’t find a cute little puppy. 】
[However, didn’t the Dog Emperor fall in love with us yesterday? He thinks we are from a humble background and are vulgar in our words and deeds. The girl from aristocratic families he wants to marry should not be like us, right? 】
[If you can live, you still have to live steadily. At least it is worth raising a puppy before dying. 】
His heart was in a mess, and he could hear the emperor's forehead throbbing.
If you don't eat melon, you will die!
Then if she is allowed to run around outside, offending people without knowing it and being retaliated against, won't she die? !
If those people she had unintentionally offended were determined to kill her, wouldn't she still have to die?
He originally wanted to disobey the Queen Mother and force him into the palace, but now he is tied up and in a dilemma.
There was a heavy sigh in his chest, and he couldn't go up or down. He originally thought it was an insignificant thing, and he would just wait until he got the person into the harem, and then find an opportunity to kill him.
Now, if you enter the palace and there is no excitement, you will die.
If you stay outside, you will die if someone takes revenge.
Why does this sound like alarmism? Didn't she conspire with the so-called system to deceive him?
But...he can't gamble.
He squeezed the tea bowl tightly and took a deep breath, glancing at the queen with a leisurely manner.
"What does the Queen think of this matter?"
The queen shook her head, put down her tea bowl and looked calmly at the three little girls below.
"My concubine, everything depends on your Majesty's wishes. Your Majesty wants to select a daughter from a noble family, and I will start preparations today."
The emperor was obviously very dissatisfied with her incorrect answer. He stood up and flicked his robe sleeves. Before leaving, he glanced at someone who was still thinking about the puppy and said a few words.
"It's not urgent."
There's no rush, we'll talk about it later.
Almost the moment he left, Lu Xinlan let go of Lu Xinran's hand and slumped on the chair as if he had survived the disaster.
Great, the emperor has changed his mind.
The queen also laughed. She could see that the emperor was deflated. She must eat more this morning to celebrate.
"Okay, His Majesty has left. You should go back too. Shui'er, Lu family girl, you should also go for a walk in the garden. You can come back at noon to accompany me."
Knowing that the Lu sisters must have something to whisper, the queen smiled and asked them to find a deserted place.
Almost as soon as they left Changchun Palace, Lu Xinlan pulled Lu Xinran straight to the Imperial Garden.
The original person has been to the palace many times before and is very familiar with the imperial garden. She knows that there are many places where she can talk, and she must make her interests clear to her.
Zhang Shui'er looked at their hurried away figures and didn't know which one to sympathize with.
I always feel that Lu Xinlan, who is worried about everything, is even more pitiful.
"Xinran, have you forgotten what I once reminded you, just eat melons and watch the excitement in silence, and don't let others know?"
Lu Xinran blinked aggrievedly, "But I didn't say it out loud. I never mentioned it to anyone."
"If possible, I don't want to..."
Lu Xinlan opened her mouth. Although she didn't feel suffocated, the familiar silence came again.
What a broken system!
Why are you so domineering?
"Sister," Lu Xinran carefully peeked at her expression: "When do you think we can leave the palace? Also, what do the emperor mean by those words? Does he want to recruit you or me into the palace?"
"No, Your Majesty... probably won't choose a daughter from aristocratic family to enter the palace."
The emperor's headache now should be how to prevent her from dying.
Otherwise, there would be no secrets in this world, and it would be unbearable for him as an emperor.
