Bad news: What the heck?! I actually died from excitement while playing a game?! This has to be the most tragic thing ever!
Good news: Heh, I got a fresh start! I transmigrated! And I have a System? This story is off to a great start!
Bad news: Wait, the original owner's name was “Lu Guan”?! What? Lu Guan? What kind of idiot came up with that name? It's so awkward! I have to change it!
Good news: I changed it to Lu Chen. That sounds much better! And the cold-hearted Empress even appointed me as her Imperial Advisor!
Bad news: The cold-hearted Empress has asked me a tricky question, but I don't know a single strategy!!!
Good news: She approved every single one of my plans???
Empress: “Imperial Advisor, there are currently three hundred thousand prisoners in Yuhua City, and the city is short on food and money. Do you have a good plan?”
Lu Chen: “Your Majesty, I recommend... killing them all.”
As soon as he said this, the court fell silent. Everyone stared at the newly appointed Imperial Advisor in shock and disbelief.
Empress: “Imperial Advisor, Qingshi City is impregnable. How can we take it?”
Lu Chen pondered for a moment, then slowly replied, “Your Majesty, I have a plan. We can send a Soul Realm expert to infiltrate the city and put Seven-Star Begonia poison into the wells. This poison is colorless and odorless. It attacks the soul, and even a Soul Realm expert who ingests it will surely die. Those poisoned will also spread it to others, like a plague. Within half a month, not a single person in Qingshi City will be alive.”
The moment he finished speaking, the court erupted into an uproar.
Everyone was thinking the same thing: Ever since the Imperial Advisor was struck by a poisoned arrow, his personality and schemes had become so vicious!
