My brother entrusted his child to me, and I livestreamed raising the baby, making the Empress cry wi

Ultimately, Ye Fan chose to travel through time to do the mission in order to save him, which led him to meet Shu Jingwei and ultimately end up like this...

Lin Ye's fingers tightened suddenly, his knuckles turned white, and his nails almost dug into his palm.

The elevator doors opened.

The "ding" sound was crisp and jarring.

Little Douzi toddled out with her short legs. After taking a couple of steps, she realized that the person behind her wasn't following, so she turned around in confusion.

The little ball on the hat swung as he turned his head and hit his head with a "thud".

"Godfather?" She ran back in small steps, called out softly, and then reached out her little hand to tug at Lin Ye's clenched fingers.

Lin Ye snapped out of his daze and looked down at her.

The little girl looked up at him with a puzzled expression, tilted her head, and blinked.

Lin Ye forced a smile and bent down to rub her head.

"It's alright, little one. Your godfather was just a little distracted."

He led the little boy and continued walking outside.

He must bring back Ye Fan's remains.

That's his brother; he promised him that.

He remembered seeing something useful in the system shop last time...

Lin Ye brought up the system store in his mind.

A familiar list of products appeared before him, and he scrolled down, the icons, text, and numbers passing by line by line.

Found it—

[The Search Stone: Hold it and recall the person you are looking for. It will guide you, regardless of whether the person is alive or not (only usable when both parties are in the same world). Requires 300000 Shock Points to redeem.]

……

[Time-Space Shuttle (Basic): Used for traveling between two time periods. The basic version allows for a ten-minute stay. Requires 5000000 Shock Points to exchange.]

……

Lin Ye's eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously glanced at the upper right corner.

[Shock Value Balance: 5700 points]

The shock value balance was displayed there quietly, like a grade being marked on a report card.

Three hundred thousand + five million, that's a lot of shock value. Considering a single livestream earns around six thousand per stream, it'll be a huge amount of money to stream—

He did the math in his head, then decided not to bother.

The numbers are too big, it's mentally exhausting to calculate them, just counting all those zeros is enough to give you a toothache.

His gaze swept around the mall again, landing on a few other items.

[Amulet (One-time Use): Can block one instance of physical damage; requires 800 Shock Points to exchange]

[Plant Cultivation Solution (10 drops): Increases the yield of any crop by 10% regardless of external factors. Requires 1000 Shock Points to redeem.]

[Knowledge Transfer Charm: Transfers specified knowledge to a target person. Requires 30000 Shock Points to exchange.]

[Item Transfer Station: Allows the transfer of items weighing less than 100 jin between two different timelines (items that can threaten the foundation of a plane cannot be transferred). Requires 300000 Shock Points to exchange.]

……

These products circulated in his mind for a while, and he slowly came up with an idea.

Actually, it's not impossible for him to avenge Ye Fan.

Ye Fan's prestige in the Great Flame Kingdom was something he had already witnessed in his previous live stream.

The reactions of the people when they saw Ye Fan's photo were: some knelt down and kowtowed, some wept uncontrollably, and some shouted, "Lord Ye is a great man."

From Ye Fan's memories, it's clear that Shu Jingwei had no great talent or ambition whatsoever.

Without Ye Fan, and with Elder Yao Jing proposing policies that seem useful but are actually empty rhetoric and just a way to make money, things became even more complicated.

It's still early, and with some veteran officials in charge, the Great Flame Kingdom might be fine for now. But if more time passes and something major happens—

There will definitely be trouble.

Lin Ye unconsciously rubbed his index finger with his thumb.

If he had taken that opportunity to pass on modern knowledge, technology, crop cultivation methods, and so on...

And let the people of the Great Flame Kingdom know that these things were brought by him, Ye Fan's brother.

It was something Ye Fan obtained at the cost of his life.

At that time—

Will the people's hearts still be with the empress who left Ye Fan to die in the cold palace?

Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it.

This is no joke.

Lin Ye narrowed his eyes, his lips curled down slightly, and his natural arrogance shone through his face.

So what if he's an emperor?

She's just a stupid woman who was helped onto the throne by Ye Fan, then betrayed him and pushed him down.

Ye Fan was able to help her up—

Lin Ye could pull her down.

Lin Ye led Xiao Douzi out through the automatic glass door. The autumn wind swept over him and blew on his face, feeling cool and refreshing.

He took a deep breath.

However, all of this must be done gradually, and we must wait for the right opportunity.

You have to accumulate shock points little by little; you can't rush it.

But the live stream has to be broadcast.

Not only must we broadcast, but we must broadcast more, broadcast better, broadcast in a planned and rhythmic manner, broadcast scientifically, accurately, and efficiently, while also flexibly broadcasting in special circumstances, allowing the initial broadcasts to drive the overall trend...

No... it's gone too far...

Lin Ye's lips twitched, and he quickly brought his thoughts back on track.

In short, for Ye Fan's remains, for a possible chance for revenge, and for some life-saving items in the shop.

What if I need to use it someday?

It's better to be prepared.

It's always good to accumulate shock points.

Lin Ye finished thinking and looked down at the little bag beside him.

The little girl was standing at the entrance of the building, looking around with great interest, finding everything fascinating.

A black SUV drove past, and she turned her head ninety degrees to watch it disappear around the corner before reluctantly turning back.

Lin Ye smiled at the little boy and silently recited a phrase in his mind—

"System, start live stream."

......

The Great Flame Kingdom, the Imperial Palace, Taihe Hall.

Another morning court session has begun, and more than half of it has already passed.

The sky was already bright, but when the sunlight squeezed in through the latticed windows, it was mostly swallowed up by the gloom of the hall, leaving only a few pale beams of light sticking obliquely to the ground, illuminating the dust floating in the air.

Civil and military officials stood in rows on both sides, holding tablets and standing with their heads bowed. No one spoke, and even their breathing was extremely soft. It was as if they were not living people, but rows of clay sculptures dressed in official robes.

On the dragon throne, Shu Jingwei tapped her fingertips on the armrests.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the silent hall. The pace was neither too fast nor too slow, yet it was like a death knell, each beat striking the hearts of the courtiers.

Her gaze fell on the people kneeling in the hall.

Zhang Chong, the commander of the Imperial Guards, knelt on the gold bricks, his armor still damp with dew, clearly having rushed back from outside the city overnight without even having time to change his clothes.

His forehead was pressed firmly against the gold bricks, and he hadn't raised his head since kneeling down. His back was hunched over like a bow, and he looked as if he wanted to disappear into the ground.

"Zhang Chong".

Shu Jingwei spoke, her voice neither loud nor soft, even steady, revealing no emotion.

But it was precisely this calmness that chilled the assembled courtiers to the bone more than any outburst of rage…

Zhang Chong trembled slightly in fright, his Adam's apple bobbed up and down, making a soft "gulp" sound that was particularly clear in the silent hall.

"Your subject... Your subject is here..." His voice was dry, as if his throat had been sanded.

"How's the search for the person I asked you to find going?"
