Something strange is coming? Fortunately, I am the King of Hell of the Tenth Palace

Chapter 707: Triggering the hidden plot of the eldest princess: proclaiming himself emperor

While being released from prison.

A scarlet panel appeared in front of Shen Jian.

[Side mission: Escape from death row (completed)]

[Note: The current branch is the first phase of the mission. A modification of player information has been detected, and the second phase of the branch mission has been started. 】

【activated. 】

[Second stage of side mission: Join any prince lineup. 】

[It is detected that the player has selected a lineup. 】

[Current lineup: Princess Miaolin. 】

[Second stage of side mission: Select lineup (completed)]

[The third phase of the branch line is officially launched. 】

[The third stage of the side mission: Achieve at least 50 points of goodwill with the prince of your lineup. 】

[Content: Sufficient favorability is the basis of trust. Without trust, there will be no future. As a secret guard, ensuring at least 50 points of favorability is a guarantee that you will not be liquidated in the future. 】

[Task Tip: Talk less and do more, show loyalty. 】

[Note: Hide your identity well, scare visitors from the world, and be disliked by the royal family. 】

Shen Jian saw it.

This side quest has almost caught up with the difficulty of the main side quest.

Not to mention how an ordinary player can gain the trust of the prince, just becoming a secret guard, performing tasks and surviving is not an easy task.

If we add some princes who don't take the lives of death row prisoners seriously, the situation will be even worse.

Therefore.

Only then will the third phase of the side mission appear.

With 50 points of favorability, it has reached the familiar stage.

At this stage, the player and the target are already considered friends.

Even if they are liquidated or sent out to perform tasks in the future, they will subconsciously consider the difficulty of the tasks, or simply put the players in a more comfortable environment.

This is the key for players to participate in the battle for the heir.

Without this premise, even if you come up with a plan, there is nothing you can do, let alone affect the outcome of the heir apparent.

only……

One is a death-row secret guard with a low status and shady identity, and the other is a high-ranking prince. Their identities are not equal at all. Even if they want to please each other and increase their favor, they must have a chance.

This.

It still depends on the outstanding performance when performing tasks.

In other words.

The biggest danger for players in this dungeon undoubtedly lies in the process of performing various tasks.

No one knows what outrageous tasks the prince they have chosen will send them to perform.

If they were to assassinate a certain prince, even if they could succeed, they would probably be close to death.

Think of this.

Shen Jian clicked his tongue.

Apparently.

This time the dungeon is said to be five-star difficulty, but in fact it may become six-star at any time.

only……

None of this has anything to do with him.

Shen Jian glanced at the blushing Princess Miaolin who was very close at hand, and then looked at the 81-point favorable opinion.

I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows.

As if to say: Is the delay so serious? Lao Tie, this server is not good.

...

The next second.

The scarlet font appears again.

[The target of the lineup selected by the player is detected: the eldest princess Miaolin, the favorability reaches 81 points. 】

[The third phase of the side mission (completed)]

[Note: The rewards have been incorporated into the settlement interface and can only be claimed after completing the game. 】

[Note: It has been detected that the target's favorability exceeds the standard, and the princess's hidden plot mission has been started. 】

[The mission has been activated. 】

[The hidden plot of the eldest princess: ascending the throne and proclaiming herself emperor. 】

[Content: I am the eldest daughter of the emperor, and the throne should be mine. Her Royal Highness, the Princess of Daqing, has been smart since she was a child. She is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. She is proficient in the art of war, riding and shooting, and is the most terrifying among the royal family. However, because a woman cannot succeed to the throne, she has nowhere to display her talents. She secretly cultivates power and participates in government affairs. , stand out step by step, waiting for the opportunity. 】

[Task tip: Building momentum is the best opportunity to get ahead. 】

[Note: The difficulty of this task far exceeds the player level. It is a long-term goal. Players can have the permission to enter this copy up to ten times. 】

[Note: This task is the only hidden task. If the task fails, the player will die. 】

[Note: The time limit for this task is: 5 years. 】

Seeing the jumbled scarlet text, Shen Jian's eyes moved slightly.

Princess Miaolin's hidden plot mission is to proclaim herself emperor.

The goal is ambitious enough.

This is ten times, or even a hundred times more difficult than seizing a direct descendant.

Even if you have the authority to enter Qingguo ten times, you may not be able to succeed within five years.

and.

In the absence of Emperor Qing's clear abdication, there was only one way to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor within five years.

rebel!

There is no other way.

after all.

Emperor Qing is a world-destroying ghost and god, and he can live as long as he wants. If he is not willing to abdicate, he may not be able to sit in that position for hundreds of years.

Shen Jian was thoughtful.

His eyes stayed on the building momentum in the task prompt.

Building momentum means building up the reputation of the eldest princess.

And Shen Jian saw two words: causing trouble.

What are you thinking about?

at this time.

Princess Miaolin's voice brought Shen Jian's thoughts back to reality.

He lowered his head slightly.

Looking at the beautiful eldest princess in his arms, he couldn't help but have thoughts that all men would understand.

I was wondering if I tasted the eldest princess's red lips, does that count as an offense to the royal family?

Hear this.

Princess Miaolin's pretty eyebrows gave Shen Jian a sideways glance.

Do you only know now? There are many people here, let's talk about it when we get back.

Said.

She broke away from Shen Jian's arms.

Shen Jian was left with a free and easy back view.

…

Zhenhou Mansion.

When Shen Jian came here, what he saw was a luxurious mansion.

Princess Miaolin said: I live in the palace, it's inconvenient for you to follow me. This Zhenhou Mansion is a force that I secretly control, and it's all my people. You can live here with peace of mind. If you need anything, just tell the guards.

Also, you will be my secret guard in name in the future. There is a set of secret guard clothes and a mask in your room. If you need to perform a task, you can wear the mask. It is a supernatural thing that can block perception. .”

Shen Jian nodded.

There is nothing dissatisfying about it.

He basically didn't have to do anything, Her Royal Highness the Princess had already arranged everything.

If she were a man, she would probably already be the undisputed crown prince and future heir apparent.

I may continue to investigate this justice order in the future, so you must be mentally prepared.

Shen Jian said.

Whether it is to seize the throne or to rebel and proclaim emperor, you need to build momentum.

And this member of the Order of Justice who suddenly appeared is very suitable to be his informant.

I understand. Just do whatever you want. As long as you don't break the news, I will have a way to deal with the aftermath. But... if you don't go to the mansion now, why are you running out?

Princess Miaolin nodded seriously, and then saw Shen Jian walking towards the door, feeling a little curious.

Haha, I promised the Queen to guide her son, so naturally I want to meet the Thirteenth Prince.

Say it.

Shen Jian turned around and disappeared.

Looking at Shen Jian's back, Princess Miaolin was worried.

The Queen has lived in the palace for a long time and has not seen him very often. There should be... no problem.

…

the other side.

Jin Palace.

This is the residence given to the Thirteenth Prince in the Imperial Capital of Qing Kingdom. Although he is still young, he has already obtained his own title because he is the legitimate son of the current Queen.

The mansion is huge.

It occupies an area larger than two football fields.

It was twice as big as the Zhenhou Mansion where he lived.

As soon as you walk in, you can smell the fragrance of bamboo.

Rows of bamboo trees stand on both sides of the mansion, swaying in the wind.

Led by the guards, Shen Jian quickly arrived at a bamboo pavilion.

Look away.

The Empress sat on the bamboo pavilion impressively, her back was graceful and concave and convex, and her beautiful eyes were looking gently at a little boy who was sparring outside the pavilion.

Presumably he is the Thirteenth Prince, the King of Jin.

The little boy didn't look that big, he was about the same size as the royal spy who claimed to be his slave three days ago. At such a young age, his terror level had already reached the level of an abyss-level ghost king.

Although some of the evil ghosts he encountered also looked like very young children, whether they were ghost babies, ghost children, or ghost boys, they actually only looked like children or babies. In fact, they had probably existed for many years. More than dozens, even hundreds of years.

And the one in front of me is truly an Abyss-level person who is only ten years old.

Such a level of terror is undoubtedly unimaginable in the world of horror. Even the ghost and deity Queen of Evernight does not have such a level of terror at this age.

This.

It is the difference between the horror world and the deep ghost world.

Especially since the Thirteenth Prince is the legitimate son of the Queen and has unimaginable resources. Only at this age can he reach the level of the Abyss-level Ghost King.

Be aware of arrivals.

The queen stood up immediately.

There is surprise in her beautiful eyes.

Although Shen Jian had agreed to this matter long ago, things may change at any time before it actually comes.

Mr. Shen, you are finally here.

Zhan Taimingjing smiled sweetly.

Zhi'er, come and meet your teacher. From today on, Mr. Shen will be responsible for your future guidance. You must treat him like your mother.

Hear sounds.

The young Thirteenth Prince looked at Shen Jian.

Although he was only ten years old, he was a prince after all, and a powerful heir to the throne who was titled King Jin. With a serious face, he also had a temperament that could not be ignored.

Are you the teacher that Queen Mother sent for? Are you a ghost? I want to see...ah, Queen Mother, why did you hit me?

The Thirteenth Prince said sternly.

He looks like a little adult.

But the words are not yet finished.

He was lightly slapped on the back of the head.

When he turned around, he saw his mother glaring at him, Speak carefully, he is your teacher.

Oh...what can you do, sir?

The Thirteenth Prince felt aggrieved.

But he still rolled his eyes and said fiercely.

Shen Jian saw it.

Think about it.

Covered by a scarlet ghost realm, he stretched out his hand to grab it, and a lonely wild ghost appeared in his hand.
