Chapter 198 The Second World Opens (1)

"I agree."

As soon as Gu Chang's voice sounded, the Lord God said in the next second: "Okay, as long as you agree."

The system said anxiously: "Host, the hell-level world is not that simple, and the tasks are not even told to you..."

"It's okay, believe me." Gu Chang smiled at the system.

The Lord God hummed twice, and a translucent golden contract appeared in front of Gu Chang. "Just press your handprint on this contract."

Gu Chang first read the contents of the contract and pressed his fingerprint only after confirming that there were no textual traps.

A cold electronic sound suddenly rang out.

[Opening the world plot——————]

[Host, please prepare yourself——]

[World storyline is opening——]

[The world storyline has been completed - I wish the host a pleasant journey! ]

Gu Chang only felt a flash of white light in front of his eyes, and then he felt himself being sucked in by some force.

When he opened his eyes again, what he saw was a thin red gauze curtain and a few strings of small golden bells hanging from the ceiling of the bed.

There is a faint scent of ambergris at the tip of the nose, which is very pleasant.

Gu Chang covered his forehead and sat up from the bed. His robe was half open, revealing his fair chest. When he sat up, the dark red bead bracelet on his wrist made a clear sound.

His head felt dizzy, like the vertigo from a hangover, but Gu Chang still seized the opportunity to accept the memories of this body.

"Ah! Your Majesty, you are awake!" A palace maid in a simple moon-white dress appeared outside the layers of gauze curtains. She put the tray in her hand aside, quickly lifted the gauze curtains and approached Gu Chang.

Gu Chang raised his hand, his voice slightly hoarse, "Don't move!"

The maid froze in her place. She was only separated from Gu Chang by a thin veil, and could only vaguely see Gu Chang sitting on the bed, covering his head. She reacted very quickly and knelt on the ground, lowering her head and not daring to look at the person behind the veil.

She looked a little uneasy, and even her breathing became subconsciously lighter.

After accepting the original owner's memories, Gu Chang turned his head slightly to look at the palace maid standing outside without moving.

This palace maid was the one who served Gu Chang personally. Her name was Chuying, she was twenty-five years old, and had been with the original owner since she was a child.

The original owner was the emperor of Tianyao Kingdom, Murong Heng. This was the second year after he came to power, and the original owner was twenty-three years old this year.

The original owner was a bloodthirsty and brutal individual, a despot in the Tianyao Kingdom. Upon ascending to power, he annihilated nearly all the nobles who opposed him, then reshuffled the various factions. He also trained a unit of Night Shadow Guards, who obeyed only his orders. These elusive Night Shadow Guards slew lives in the darkness of night, becoming the sharpest sword in Murong Heng's wield.

Last night, Murong Heng met a woman and drank fine wine with her.

This was the first time Murong Heng got drunk, and it gave those who wanted to kill him an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Murong Heng was poisoned to death. When Gu Chang came over, Murong Heng's body was already full of toxins, so the system gave Gu Chang the Snow Lotus Pill.

Now that he has recovered, Gu Changcai wakes up.

"Host, I did okay, right?" The system stared at Gu Chang for half the night, protecting him.

Perhaps the person who poisoned Murong Heng was very confident, so after Murong Heng returned to her bedroom poisoned, he did not come to confirm whether Murong Heng was dead or not. Or perhaps he was afraid of the Night Shadow Guards trained by Murong Heng.

"Your Majesty..." Chu Ying hesitated, then slowly spoke again. Having followed Murong Heng since she was a child, she knew his temper well. Normally, she wouldn't dare speak when he was lost in thought, but now she had to confirm his state.

Gu Chang collected his thoughts. He first praised the system for its good performance, then sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the young Ying who was kneeling on the ground.

The memory of last night was very confusing, and Gu Chang could only see some fragments.

The woman drinking with Murong Heng wore a light, aqua-red dress. She sang and danced well, and possessed a glamorous temperament yet exuded the gentle grace of a lady from a noble family. This contradictory quality caught Murong Heng's eye, and he chose her from among the tribute dancers.

The woman's name was Pingping. She could compose poems and songs at will, and she praised Murong Heng to the sky.

Since everything Murong Heng did after ascending the throne was extremely cruel, most people criticized him. Occasionally, Murong Heng would hear someone praise him, which he would find novel.

Murong Heng has a good alcohol tolerance, and the wine he drank last night was not enough to make him drunk.

There is definitely something wrong with that dancer named Pingping.

"Where is the dancer named Pingping from last night now?" Gu Chang stood up, raised his hand to lift the gauze curtain, and lowered his eyes to stare at the butterfly-shaped silver hairpin on the young ying's head.

The original body was well-proportioned, with black hair that reached her ankles. She liked to wear loose robes and jingling pearl and jade accessories.

Chiying kept her head bowed and knelt, trying to speak calmly, "Your Majesty, a woman named Pingping committed suicide by jumping into the river last night."

Gu Chang raised his eyebrows slightly, walked past the young oriole, and came to the open gate. Looking at the towering palace, Gu Chang sighed in his heart: This palace looks really rich.

However, according to Murong Heng's personality, it is impossible to predict what Murong Heng will do next.

Outside the palace gate stood a dozen imperial guards protecting the emperor.

"Why?" Gu Chang lowered his voice and turned to look at Chunying. His tone was cold and his eyes were like a poisonous snake penetrating deep into the belly, squeezing Chunying's heart.

Chu Ying could feel Gu Chang looking at her, and the feeling of being on edge made her tremble in her heart.

"Your Majesty, before jumping into the river, Dancer Pingping said that you, Your Majesty, had insulted her innocence." Chiying tried her best to speak fluently and without stuttering. If she dared to show any sign of displeasure in front of the emperor, she would be severely punished.

Gu Chang was silent. In Chuying's opinion, Gu Chang's silence meant that he was angry.

When the emperor was angry, he laid down millions of corpses and bled for thousands of miles.

Chiying had already anticipated that the emperor would go on a killing spree.

"If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body." Gu Chang showed a playful smile. He turned around and walked back into the hall, lifted his robe and sat on the couch. "Chunying, what time is it now?"

Chunying's voice sounded calmly, "Your Majesty, it is now noon." Chunying knew that the emperor's order was not given to her, but to the Night Shadow Guards hiding in the dark.

Chuying thought Murong Heng would order the execution of the dancer who came with Pingping. It seems that Pingping really captured the emperor's heart.

Afterwards, a group of palace maids dressed in palace maid uniforms carried trays and walked into the hall one after another from outside.

Their eyes were always looking downwards, and they would never look at the emperor's face.

After washing and dressing, it was Chunying who took the golden comb and combed Gu Chang's long black hair.

This long hair was grown by Murong Heng after he ascended the throne. He usually used the best hair wash products to maintain his soft black hair.

As usual, Chunying braided a few small braids for Gu Chang, and then tied his long hair with a black-gold ribbon embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon.

Gu Chang stared at the person in the mirror. Murong Heng was handsome, but his eyes were cruel and his eyes were slightly red. When others saw him, they would be scared away by his eyes.

After breakfast, Gu Chang had to go to Jingren Hall. Jingren Hall was the palace where all officials attended the morning court. The emperor was supposed to go to the morning court earlier, but since Murong Heng became emperor, he had never been on time and was always late.

But no one dared to say a word against him. Previously, a civil official angrily rebuked Murong Heng for being late every day as an emperor, which was not in accordance with etiquette. Then Murong Heng made him into a kite and made the civil official's family carry the kite back home, and everyone had to smile.

After that, the Wenguan family disappeared in Shengjing City and their whereabouts are unknown.

There are rumors that Murong Heng ordered the Night Shadow Guard to kill the entire family of Wen Guan.

When Gu Chang walked out of his bedroom, he simply opened his collar, kicked off his shoes, and got on the black lacquered and gold-patterned imperial sedan chair.

Cheng De, the eunuch standing by, quickly picked up the shoes from the ground, held them in his arms, and shouted, "Get up!"

The imperial sedan was carried by eight people standing on the left and right, followed by two eunuchs holding a canopy, and after that were several eunuchs and palace maids.

From a distance, it looks very powerful.

Cheng De was the chief eunuch. He followed the imperial chariot and approached Gu Chang. He smiled flatteringly, "Your Majesty, a small country in the south has presented you with several beauties. Will Your Majesty go?"

Gu Chang sat lazily on the imperial carriage, his eyes half closed, looking straight ahead.

Even though Gu Chang has no expression on his face now, he gives people the feeling of being cold and ruthless.

"Yeah." Gu Chang responded lightly.

Cheng De was overjoyed. "I will definitely take care of this matter and ensure that those beauties will serve Your Majesty obediently."

Soon, the imperial carriage arrived at Jingren Hall.

The imperial carriage stopped steadily, and Cheng De knelt on the ground to put shoes on Gu Chang.

Murong Heng disliked the feeling of being restricted by clothes, so he often wore clogs. He only wore shoes when attending morning court or holding important ceremonies.

After putting on his shoes, Gu Chang kicked Cheng De just like the original owner had done before.

Cheng De still had a smile on his face. He fell to the ground and after Gu Chang passed him, he quickly stood up. The eunuch behind him came over and brushed the dust off Cheng De's clothes.

Cheng De glared at the young eunuch and quickly shouted, "The Emperor has arrived!"

Civil and military officials had already been waiting for the emperor's arrival in Jingren Palace.

"Long live our emperor!" All the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted.

Gu Chang came and sat on the high dragon throne. He raised his arms, supported his head with his hands and looked down at the ministers below.

"Wow, host, it's so awesome to be an emperor." The system chattered non-stop.

"Don't talk for now." After Gu Chang finished speaking to the system, he waited for the next process.

"If you have something to report, please come forward. If not, please dismiss the court!" Cheng De stood at the bottom of the steps, his eyes sweeping over the ministers in front of him.

Prime Minister Linghu Weixin and General Mo Yinqing exchanged a glance. Linghu Weixin bowed first and spoke, "Your Majesty, we have nothing to report."

Mo Yinqing followed closely behind him and said the same thing.

Such morning court sessions would occur four or five times a month. Murong Heng had killed so many of his former ministers that the aristocratic families had to reshuffle their positions. Most of the officials currently serving in the court were appointed through the imperial examinations, while others were recommended by aristocratic families who had long followed Murong Heng.

Prime Minister Linghu Weixin was one of Murong Heng's staff when Murong Heng was still a prince.

General Mo Yinqing was selected by Murong Heng from the Night Shadow Guard.

The two of them can be said to be the most loyal people to Murong Heng.

Gu Chang felt that if he got along with these two people, he had to maintain his personality at all times and must not be OOC.

Gu Chang waved his hand casually. Cheng De had been paying attention to Gu Chang. Seeing Gu Chang wave his hand, he said, "Dismiss the court——"

------

Inside the main hall of Qianqing Palace.

Gu Chang sat on a chair carved with a golden dragon, without even glancing at the pile of memorials on the table.

"Your Majesty." Linghu Weixin was still wearing his official uniform. He had a handsome face, and his peach blossom eyes, slightly raised at the corners, were very affectionate.

Walking beside him was Mo Yinqing.

Mo Yinqing was a burly man, and his court robes were a little tight on him. He also called out, "Your Majesty."

"What's the matter?" Gu Chang sat casually on the chair. He opened his eyelids and glanced at the two people who were walking towards him.

"I heard you were drunk last night," Linghu Weixin said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, so how could you possibly be drunk?"

"My subordinates have checked the woman named Pingping. She joined in the middle of the process and her name is not Pingping. She is an imposter." Mo Yinqing frowned. Last night, Murong Heng and Pingping were drinking in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and they did not allow the Night Shadow Guards to get close.

This is really not something Murong Heng would do.

"Well, it's strange to say, but when I saw that woman, I felt that she was a fairy from heaven. No matter what she wanted, I wanted to give it to her." Gu Chang raised his eyebrows slightly, and there seemed to be some nostalgia in his tone.

In the original owner's memory, last night, fake Pingping stood out among the other dancers, her beautiful eyes captivating Murong Heng. That's why Murong Heng took fake Pingping to the lakeside pavilion for a drink. Murong Heng had no suspicions about fake Pingping, as she said she didn't like anyone disturbing their private time. So, Murong Heng ordered the Night Shadow Guards not to get close.

As to why Murong Heng was attracted to this fake Pingping, it was because she was the heroine Nie Qingxue.
