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

Chapter 195 I won’t marry anyone but her
"Your Majesty, I have a feeling something is amiss."

"Oh! Minister Wu has something to say."

Wu Luosheng lowered his head, thinking to himself: I have nothing to say!
"I feel that Lord Fang's method is simply absurd. It requires young couples to dance. I have never heard of such a thing before."

"Lord Wu, just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If you don't believe me, how about we make a bet?"

Fang Lingchu became furious when she heard someone object.

Wu Luosheng: I didn't disbelieve it, I really didn't.

On the surface, you still have to maintain an expression that says, "I'd rather die than believe you."

"Young Master Fang, you are so young, yet you still believe in those superstitious things. You have truly wasted your time studying the classics."

"Which sage has ever said that one cannot believe in gods?"

"When people are sick, they should seek medical treatment, not engage in such superstitious practices."

"Does Lord Wu dare to make a bet with me?"

"What does Master Fang want to bet on?"

The old man was blowing his nose and glaring.

[Host, have the old man release his daughter.]

[What's going on, Guagua? What happened to the old man's daughter?]

Emperor: Is this the time for gossip? Human lives are at stake!

"Alright, if Minister Wu has no way to revive the Seventh Princess, then try Minister Fang's method."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Fang Lingchu, who was almost off course again, was pulled back by the emperor's words.

"By the way, Your Majesty, is there anyone in the palace with an exceptionally good memory who can play a piece of music just by looking at it?"

"Gao De, go and call the musician."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

[Guagua, I feel like His Majesty is actually a pretty good person.]

Your emperor is getting better and better.

Right, right? Although he was a terrible person in his treatment of the Seventh Princess, his efforts to find a solution after learning about it are still very commendable.

Of course!

[But Guagua, who do you think will raise the Seventh Princess in the end? Tang Keke is dead, so the Seventh Princess is now without a mother, right?]

It's not that she's cold-blooded; in this era, Tang Keke's fate could only be death.

In fact, Fang Lingchu understood Tang Keke quite well. Since she was going to die anyway, she might as well make her death serve its greatest purpose and find a better way out for her poor daughter.

It should be...

Before the system could finish speaking, the Luck Mission was activated.

(Fate Mission: Have the Empress raise the Seventh Princess. Fate Points: 20.)
[Guagua, did I read that wrong? It's only 20 Luck Points! Does that mean you and Little Golden Dragon would have 100 points?!]

[It should be, Host, quickly find a way to get the Empress to raise the Seventh Princess!]

The system's eyes lit up as it looked at the points!

Wait, let's figure out a way to revive the Seventh Princess first.

[It's alright, the Emperor has already sent out an imperial decree. Those newly married young talents are already on their way to the palace. This Wu Luosheng's medical skills aren't particularly outstanding, but he can certainly keep the Seventh Princess alive for another day.]

"That puts my mind at ease. By the way, how is Wu Luosheng's daughter?"

Not good at all; still acting like he's about to die, almost killing himself.

[Guagua, do you think she might be the next female lead?]

Why do you think that way?

[Look! His daughter is a very skilled poisoner. Her father favors his concubine over his wife, so her life is miserable. Now she's being forced to marry a spoiled brat. Isn't this the standard setup for a female lead?]

[Host, all of this requires time travel and rebirth, but she didn't have those!]

"Alright, the excellent young lady lost out not because of the time travel aspect, but because of what I said about asking Old Man Wu to give me his daughter later. What do you think?"

I think it's a good idea, since he's already bet with you.

"Old Wu... cough cough, Lord Wu, if you lose, give me your eldest daughter, how about it?"

Wu Luosheng was surprised that Fang Lingchu would actually dare to make such a request.

"Young Master Fang, don't go too far."

"What's wrong with me? You don't like her anyway, so giving her to me is killing two birds with one stone." Fang Lingchu rolled her eyes at him.

This old man is incompetent, and he has quite a temper!

[Host, he's still an Imperial Academy Envoy, so be careful.]

"So what? I'm still a princess with a title! Did I say anything?"

Wu Luosheng: Okay, okay.

Emperor: This is the first time Xiao Chu has revealed her identity!
"Your Majesty, this... Lord Fang is going too far."

Emperor: Why are you looking at me like that? It's as if I dare to offend her.

"You can decide this yourselves. I still need to go see Xiao Qi to see if she is the Empress."

Empress: I think of Xiao Qi at this time.

"Yes, Your Majesty and I will go in and see Xiao Qi."

[The Empress dotes on the Emperor! Host]

[That little kid Wu Luosheng, when he can't win an argument, he goes to the emperor to complain. He's such a waste of his age.]

[Host, shouldn't you be paying attention to the romantic entanglements of some emperors and empresses?]

[If you don't see it, and there's no love in your heart, then drawing your sword will naturally make you a god.]

[Host, you...]

The system was speechless at Fang Lingchu.

Wu Luosheng: Is there anyone who can stand up for him?

"Lord Wu, have you thought this through? Do you want to gamble?"

"Young Master Fang, aren't you afraid I'll go and have a word with Master Fang about this?"

[Guagua, is Wu Luosheng threatening us?]

[Absolutely! Host, this is a blatant threat!]

[He threatened me, saying he'd have Xiao Hei kill his whole family tonight.]

The emperor in the story: When did Xiao Chu become so cruel?

Empress: Lord Fang, is it really that serious?

Wu Luosheng stiffened for a moment, clenching his fists tightly, inwardly cursing Fang Lingchu to the point of being furious.

On the surface, however, they had no choice but to submit.

He didn't dare gamble with his family's lives; Fang Lingchu seemed unreliable at first glance.

No one in the imperial court dared to do anything to her, and she herself...

"Alright, we'll do as Master Fang says."

[Guagua, why did he suddenly agree?]

He probably knows you're planning to kill their entire family!

【What do you mean by killing the whole family? I was just joking, Guagua, how come you don't understand?】

System: What's the use of him understanding?

Wu Luosheng was grinding his back teeth so hard they were about to break, but he didn't dare utter a single word.

He could only take out these humiliations on his eldest daughter.

Fang Lingchu had no idea that because of her confrontation with Wu Luosheng, the young lady Wu, who was sitting at home, had incurred the wrath of her own father.

"But Lord Fang, my Lan'er is already married, and I cannot make this decision."

[Guagua, who did Wu Huilan marry?]

[He seems to be one of Wu Baixuan's spoiled cousins!]

[How did this get involved with Wu Baixuan's family?]

This matter is also related to your sister!

[With my sister?]

Yes, Wu Baixuan's cousin originally had his eye on your sister, but later, for some reason, he fell for Wu Huilan and insisted on marrying her.

Why? Can't I watch it?
