What is the world like after death?

In the grand hall of the underworld, the Black and White Impermanence silently vanished, or rather, their brainwaves dissipated into nothingness.

But in any case, it definitely wouldn't be a scene of a furball jumping around on its own body.

After a while, Wen Fei finally realized his situation - he was truly dead.

But after he died, he was bound by a system, and that fuzzy ball is the artificial intelligence inside the system.

You can gain enough energy by completing the tasks in the system.

When the energy is fully charged, one can have the chance to resurrect.

'Resurrection?'

Wen Fei, who had thought that his life was about to end like this, was once again filled with a new hope.

He despised such a weak way of life, and detested his own tendency to easily bring an end to his own life.

He wanted those who had harmed him, those who had disrespected him, to pay the price!

"Repay the Scum" was the name of the main mission. According to the system's explanation, these worlds were all created based on the real world as a template, and then processed with data, similar to a virtual reality game.

Maoqiu has four short legs and a pair of pink ears. He took the opportunity to briefly introduce the task to Wen Fei.

The data for the task is divided into two columns: "Favorability Points" and "Regret Level". Only when he fills both of these data points completely, can he obtain the corresponding energy.

Under the guidance of Maoqiu, Wen Fei selected his first subtask - to resolve the conflict between the emperor and the general over the battle robe.

This is a story focused on the development of ancient imperial relationships, with Wen Fei playing the role of Shen Changge, who is the receiver in this story.

As Wen Fei continued on his journey, Mao Qiu continued to explain to him, "For some scum attackers, emotions are easily diminished. What you need to do is give him a memory that he will never forget."

When he said this, Wen Fei understood.

It turned out to be a heart-wrenching game.

The emergence and disappearance of love are very simple, but once mixed with regret, guilt, and so on, it is very likely to evolve into an unforgettable nightmare.

Wen Fei felt that this task was tailor-made for him.

After being thoroughly wounded by Yan's expulsion, he has completely lost the ability to love someone. Such a person will not develop any feelings towards anyone, nor will he get lost in such an absurd love.

"Let's begin," Wen Fei said.

His soul transmigrated into the body of Shen Changge.

Zhou Country, once a prosperous and powerful nation, has recently suffered from incompetent rulers, causing its national strength to decline further. It faces continuous external threats and internal unrest.

The situation didn't improve until the ascension of the new emperor.

The new Emperor, Nangong Chi, is a talented and brave young man. He first prioritizes the use of loyal and capable officials, and then vigorously promotes the imperial examination system to introduce fresh blood and reorganize the court. On the external front, General Shen Changge commands the military, safeguarding the country's mountains and rivers, and ensuring its peace and stability.

General Shen Changge, is a victorious general on the battlefield.

Since he took command at the age of 18, he has been a figure who caused fear and trembling among the barbarians in the north, the southern wastelands, the western frontiers, and even the eastern islands.

A majestic long spear, a three-foot-long green-bladed sword, a snow-bound flying horse, and an unparalleled appearance – these are the symbols of Shen Changge. However, the ever-victorious general, before his return to court this time, has just suffered a rare defeat.

Although the defeat was inevitable, the Zhou military did not suffer significant losses, making this encounter with the Northern barbarians a brief clash.

Wen Fei had also participated in several command operations in his previous life. For him, the feeling of dominating the battlefield made him experience a sense of joy, as if he was reliving an old dream.

The troops of the Northern Army lined up in two rows, entering through the city gate.

The people who came to welcome stood on both sides of the road, shoulder to shoulder, jostling one another to stand higher, in order to catch a glimpse of General Shen's extraordinary bearing.

Even some bold young ladies would stand on the second floor of the restaurant and secretly throw their handkerchiefs into the crowd, hoping to attract the general's attention. However, their actions only ended up attracting the interest of many young men who rushed to grab them.

The troops of the Mo Bei army have strict military discipline. Even if there are soldiers who are unmarried and have thoughts in their minds, they do not dare to brazenly pick up on them.

With the spring breeze at their back and the horse's hooves galloping swiftly, Shen Changge hadn't returned to the capital for several months. However, at this moment, her mood was remarkably joyous.

The reason is nothing more than his eagerness to see his long-lost lover soon. How can he not be delighted by this feeling of expectation and belonging?

His love, was not someone else, but the newly crowned Emperor, Nan Gong Chi. Who would have thought that the renowned General, known for his resolute actions and iron-fisted tactics, was actually in a romantic relationship with the Emperor, Nan Gong Chi?

The summer solstice is approaching, which is a perfect time to invite Nangong Chi to go hunting in the hunting grounds. It is also a great opportunity to go outdoors for a picnic.

Otherwise, if autumn arrives and the weather turns cold, it won't be as enjoyable.

Carefully planning the itinerary for the next few days, the thought of being able to travel together with Nangong Chi made Shen Changge's heart race like an arrow leaving the bow, becoming even more uncontrollable.

He squeezed his horse's belly and urged it to walk faster on the snowy road.

As their pace quickened, the majestic palace gates quickly came into view.

With red bricks and green tiles, gilded eaves, this palace exudes an unmistakable aura of nobility, much like that person, evoking an involuntary sense of awe.

Shen Changge dismounted from his horse and ordered the army to rest temporarily, then proceeded to lead a few trusted aides into the palace on foot, to pay respects to the emperor.

Shen Changge comes from a prominent family, and his ancestors once accompanied the founding grandfather in conquering the world. Since the establishment of the country, the Shen family has been granted noble titles. Although they have experienced several rises and falls throughout the years, they eventually stabilized.

In the generation of Shen Changge, due to his close relationship with the new emperor, the Shen family also received a lot of care from the new emperor. For a while, they were unparalleled in the capital city, even the distant relatives of the Shen family became the objects of flattery by others.

When Shen Changge was very young, she studied together with the princes under the guidance of the Grand Tutor.

At that time, he met Nangong Chi.

The two of them have done plenty of mischief together, such as climbing trees to steal bird nests and fishing in ponds. Whenever they got into trouble, they always took the responsibility together.

After years of innocent and pure bliss, Shen Changge was sent to the military camp by her own grandfather for training, causing the two of them to part ways.

After many years, Shen Changge returned, already blossoming into a very beautiful woman.

It is somewhat inappropriate to describe Shen Changge as "beautiful". He was born with feminine features, and as he grew older, he leaned more towards the female side.

His grandfather initially thought that sending him to the battlefield would make him grow into a strong and resolute man. However, while he did become strong and resilient, he did not darken in the sun or roughen his appearance, remaining as beautiful as ever.

The deputy general, Zhang Shaoqiu, who had a good relationship with him, always compared him to the dancers in the Qinhuai Pleasure Boat. He even said that if he didn't intimidate others with his martial prowess, but instead enticed them with his beauty, it feared even the neighboring border troops would have to surrender their weapons.

Zhang Shaoqiu's words earned him quite a few hits, but unfortunately this guy still hadn't learned his lesson. Every time there was a gathering, he would take pleasure in bringing up this topic and sharing it with everyone.

And this beautiful appearance also attracted the favor of Nangong Chi. On the day he returned from the military camp and entered the palace to pay respects at the age of fifteen, he was instantly captivated by her beauty.

At that moment, when Nangong Chi saw him, his mind became a mess, like a pot of porridge. He completely forgot everything he had been taught by the Crown Prince's tutor. After much contemplation, the only thought that remained was: I want him.

However, Shen Changge is different from the others. He has military merit and comes from a prominent family. He is not the kind of man that can be easily won over by anyone.

In order to obtain Shen Changge, Nangong Chi can be said to have used both carrots and sticks, resorting to every possible means.

Another act of playing the hero to save "the beauty" and tailoring to their preferences once again.

When I catered to his interests, there were no missteps, and I gained Shen Changge's attention by giving him a few small gifts.

During the scene of the hero rescuing the beauty, Nangong Chi was so engrossed in his acting that he accidentally slipped and fell into the pond. In the end, it was Shen Changge who saved him and pulled him out.

It's embarrassing to talk about.

In the course of time, Shen Changge also came to understand his thoughts.

The two of them are already familiar with each other. He has always had a good impression of Nangong Chi, even though he knows that it is not acceptable in society for the crown prince to be involved with someone from a prestigious family. But he couldn't resist the fiery passion of young love when they first met, so he impulsively got involved.

Unbeknownst to them, these joyous days had silently passed by for six years. The newly-crowned emperor, who was merely twenty-two years old, had never favored a single concubine within the harem. In fact, the number of consorts in the harem could be counted on one hand, and even those had been forcefully inserted by various ministers.

Nangong Chi was always consistent towards Shen Changge, and Shen Changge naturally kept herself pure and clean, making every effort to avoid contact with other men, let alone being alone in a room with a young woman.

Those big masters in the military camp often teased him about this, saying that he was like a little wife who snuck into the camp.

Shen Changge smiled without getting angry. However, as soon as she turned her head, she exchanged the wine inside the bags of those people with vinegar. This caused those who liked to make fun of her to have a sour taste in their mouths as soon as they saw her. They dared not tease her anymore.

Consciousness returned, and Shen Changge found herself inside the Jinluan Hall, after having walked from outside the palace.

When Shen Changge stepped onto the hall, the courtiers turned their heads one after another. Meanwhile, Nangong Chi put down the memorial in his hand and looked over at him.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects." Shen Changge's face carried a hint of a smile as he raised the screen in front of him and knelt down on one knee before the steps.

He lifted his head and cast a gaze filled with warmth and affection towards the new emperor seated on the dragon throne.

However, the expression on Nangong Chi's face was something he had never seen before. His face was tense, his lips pressed into a straight line, and the gaze he directed at him was icy cold, devoid of any hint of the past's doting and affection.

Shen Changge, seeing Nan Gongchi's cold expression, immediately thought: Who has annoyed His Majesty?

And Nan Gongchi's next words answered his confusion. Nan Gongchi said coldly, "General Shen, I haven't told you to raise your head yet. Why did you raise it?"

It turned out that he was targeting himself.

Shen Changge was feeling perplexed, but quickly realized that this was not a place for frolicking. This was the Jinluan Hall, and all the court officials were watching.

He knew in his heart that he could not lose face for Nangong Chi in this place, so he could only apologize and say, "Your Majesty, I was anxious to meet your esteemed presence and forgot about the proper etiquette. I beg for your forgiveness."

Nangong Chi did not utter any comforting words, but merely snorted and blandly said, "Get up."

As cold and indifferent as a stranger.

"Esteemed host, his level of favorability towards you is 0, and his level of regret is 0." Maoqiu promptly reported in his mind.

"Does he not like me?"

"I'm not sure. You'll need to explore the specific situation yourself."

"......" Got it.
