I Persuade People With Reason

[! ! ! Host, what are you doing?!]

[Don’t you know that in the original plot, Qi Mingxuan made a death feud with Prime Minister Su by accidentally killing the prime minister’s son?]

[Even if the emperor later agreed to marry Su Xuer to the original body and let the two sides join, this did not resolve the hatred between the two sides – Prime Minister Su generously forgave his future son-in-law on the surface, but actually kept the hatred in mind, so he secretly gave full support to the protagonist to deal with the original body…]

[Host, you can avoid this unnecessary resentment from the beginning. Why do you want to seek death like this?! Do you really want to follow the same path as Qi Mingxuan?]

[Zi zi zi …]

“Too noisy. Be quiet.”

A line of consciousness silently moved. The signal of system 999 was suddenly cut off, and even the voice became a series of noise.

Then darkness descended.

Shielding the annoying system, Yuan Buwei continued to watch Su Mingyou. While the system made a fuss, he had jumped up.

Unexpectedly, he came to the princess’s house for a banquet and was given a wife? The dumbfounded Su Mingyou immediately shouted, “No, no, how can I……” can I marry such a woman?!

“– no?” Instead of looking at him, the corners of Yuan Buwei’s lips slowly raised, “So what you said just now is a lie, completely deceiving everyone?”

After speaking his expression changed in a second, completely distorting.

His dark pupils sank, becoming chilling.

Whoosh

The sheathed long sword flew out of his hand and suddenly hit Su Mingyou. Although the sword didn’t come out of its sheath, its speed and heavy weight made a crisp sound in mid air.

People can’t help but wonder if the person will be smashed into a puddle of blood, without even leaving flesh and bones.

Su Mingyou only felt his mind become static.

… it’s over, it’s over, I’m dead!

… he really wants to kill me!!!

Under this intense and almost suffocating fear, his mind was chaotic and didn’t even register his own actions.

It wasn’t until he felt a sharp pain on the side of his face and he was knocked down by the force, that he woke up from his confused state. The whole person collapsed on the ground and gasped.

… I, I’m still alive. Great, woo woo.

Buzz.

Not far behind him, the sheathed long sword was deeply inserted into the ground, the handle still shaking slightly.

With a blunt scabbard, it can still penetrate half a foot deep into the ground, which is enough to show the strength in the throw!

No wonder Su Mingyou’s cheek swelled to half of his right face from just a scratch.

“Young master Su must have been in love and confused just now? Are you sober now?”

Su Mingyou was still immersed in the joy of surviving when the devil-like voice sounded not far from him.

His body trembled uncontrollably, and showed fear and hatred in his eyes. Before he quickly lowered his head to hide his expression and moved out his biggest backer and last trump card.

“Crown prince, forgive me. I was wrong before. I’m willing to marry Xiuer, but my father…”

“Then my eldest aunt can step in as the matchmaker.”

Yuan Buwei looked at the eldest princess again.

“To prevent Prime Minister Su from being too strict and rigid, blinded by family traditions that he will break apart a couple in love. Leaving them no choice but to hide in the eldest princess’s house and pollute the flowers and plants.”

The eldest princess who was forced to get involved in the dispute: “…”

… is this the so-called immortals fight and little ghosts suffer?¹

Yuan Buwei still continues to urge: “What does my eldest aunt think? It’s better to help a couple in love.”

In the original plot, the eldest princess was very moved by the fact that the maid of the princess’s residence and the gong zi of the prime minister’s residence were in love. Didn’t she gladly accept the marriage and personally send the “survivor” to the prime minister’s residence?

——For a time, even Su Mingyou, a prodigal son who robs people’s women all year round, was nicknamed by gossipers a rare infatuated person. With the role of beating mandarin ducks² in this good story, the original Qi Mingxuan’s reputation deteriorated even more.

He thought, shouldn’t the eldest princess be very happy to set up this pair of lovers when Su Mingyou is still alive?

The eldest princess was silent for a moment. Ignoring Su Mingyou’s eye hints, she agreed with a bitter smile.

“Well, as your highness the crown prince said. This palace³ will act as the matchmaker.”

Yuan Buwei’s sword just now not only frightened Su Mingyou, but also frightened the people around him, including the eldest princess.

His Highness the crown prince took action during disagreements. He has such a fierce temper, deserving his reputation of growing up in the military camp.

Su Mingyou, the son of the prime minister, was almost turned into a pig’s head. The eldest princess can’t guarantee that she, who is not close to the crown prince, will be given more face than Prime Minister Su, who holds real power.

Between the prime minister (verbal attack) and the crown prince (physical attack), she finally chose to give in to the latter.

What’s more, she is an imperial princess and her husband also holds no real power. The deterrent power of prime minister Su in the court does not affect her as much. On the other hand is the future emperor. As a princess, he is not someone she can afford to offend.

But the eldest princess didn’t want to completely offend the prime minister, so she spoke carefully – all she did was follow the crown prince’s orders. Nothing more.

Su Mingyou soulessly replied, his smile more ugly than crying, but he didn’t dare to show any reluctance.

His face still hurts!

The maid Ah Xiu didn’t expect such a good thing to fall like a pie from the sky. This is the main wife position of the prime minister’s house. How many young ladies yearn for it!

Joy dazzled her, she couldn’t help but look at his highness the crown prince gratefully. Then her eyes gazed at Su Mingyou with affection.

Sensing Yuan Buwei’s focused gaze on him…

Su Mingyou had to pull out a stiff smile, but he had murderous intentions towrdas this greedy, stupid and ignorant woman.

—

What happened within the eldest princess’s house soon spread.

Even the maidservant named Ah Xiu was sent to the prime minister’s house by the eldest princess overnight. As if she couldn’t wait to get rid of this trouble.

When the crown prince of the current dynasty spoke, the eldest princess took care of Ah Xiu. Su Mingyou himself professed his love, so even if the prime minister was unwilling, he could only pinch his nose and accept her.

It is said that the prime minister’s house was full of ghosts and wolf cries that night. Su Mingyou, who has always been spoiled, was punished cruelly by the prime minister. He almost couldn’t leave bed after.

These future events will not be mentioned for the time being. Currently, the originator of everything seems to be unaffected and leisurely.

After leaving the eldest princess’s house, Yuan Buwei went straight to the medical clinic.

It seems that he finally remembered that he still had a long wound on his left hand which needed to be bandaged.

Yuan Buwei almost forgot he was in the mortal world. Here he cannot cure wounds with his spiritual force.

It’s the first time that the doctor in the hospital has seen such a strange guest. With such a deep sword wound on his hand, he still looks as if nothing had happened?

The most important thing is that from the direction of the wound, it’s not like being hurt by others, but self-inflicted.

Besides, the material of his clothes is extraordinary, and his temperament is even more eye-catching. At first glance, he came from a rich and powerful family. Why did he come to this small clinic and not his personal doctor at home?

Is this a hobby of rich children?

Slandering in his heart, but on the surface the doctor’s face was serious while he applied medicine and dressed the wound. Then he gave detailed instructions:

“Remember not to let the wound touch water during this period. Avoid spicy food. Be careful…”

Yuan Buwei sat aside, every time the doctor said something, he gently nodded his head.

Although his face was still cold and he only replied with slight “um’s” at most. There wasn’t a perfunctory feeling.

In the eyes of the old doctor, he is serious and clever.

The wild speculation in his heart suddenly flew away. The old doctor suddenly slowed down his tone, and his face became unconsciously kinder.

Seeing that he was still sitting and didn’t leave, he took the initiative to ask, “Are you uncomfortable anywhere else?”

Yuan Buwei stretched out his hand to let him feel his pulse.

The old doctor touched his beard and pondered for a long time. Finally, he only gave a result of “overactive liver”.

“… is that so?”

Yuan Buwei didn’t show any disappointment.

After leaving the clinic, he lifted the shielding on system 999 and directly asked, “What’s wrong with this body?”

The feeling of being dominated by anger and completely out of control is obviously abnormal. Even if the doctor can’t find anything, he chose to trust his intuition.

System 999 was suddenly released by the host from the small dark room, and finally restored its connection with the outside world. Still enjoying the free air, the system didn’t dare to question the host. It can only choose to forcibly ignore the issue- why is the host so powerful…

… until it heard Yuan Buwei’s question.

System 999: ???

This host is nothing like what it imagined.

… it was not long ago that he made such crazy actions. Why did he turn to it for help as if nothing had happened?

Do you really think this system has no temper?

The next moment, a line of light curtain was painted out before his eyes. The important sentence was also thickly bolded and highlighted by the system 999.

It looks very conspicuous.

[Host status: Poisoned…]

System 999:… Just kidding. What temper? In front of the little black house, it doesn’t exist orz.³

Yuan Buwei is still dissatisfied: “There is no specific analysis? What kind of strange poison is it?”

The mechanical voice of system 999 is numb: [This system is a pure auxiliary system, which is only responsible for supervising the host to complete the task. All branch lines in the task process are done by the host himself, and the system cannot provide help.]

“Oh.” Yuan Buwei nodded.

… sure enough, he overestimated the system.

The next second, he blocked the system again.

Once again locked into the small black house system 999: ??????

When it’s useful, call it Xiaotiantian⁴ (he didn’t), and when it’s useless, kick into the little black house?!

… I’m really not human, but you’re a real dog ←_ ←。

¹The higher ups struggle for power make the subordinates suffer

²I wanted to add this tidbit in. Mandarin ducks are a symbol of love in contemporary Chinese concepts, but in fact, the term mandarin duck was not originally used to describe the relationship between men and women, but was used to describe the relationship between men and men.

³Ben gong means ‘this palace’. Princes and princesses who are old enough to live in their own palace call themselves in third person this way.

³Orz. It was in the raws. This posture.

⁴Xiao Tiantian = little sweet sweet. Lol the system gave itself a nickname
