The System Make Me Near With The Emperor
Chapter 11

Huang Long approached a small pagoda in the corner of the room. The small pagoda is about one meter tall, with two levels.

People knew that it was just an imitation of an ordinary pagoda. But, it was actually the pagoda that was the entrance to the secret room.

After a while inside the temple, Huang Long finally came out. Then he stepped into the court of the palace with the eunuch who had followed him.

"Master, Lang is dead,"

The man he called Tuan stopped playing the notes he drew from the guqin strings. "So you got nothing?"

"No Sir. That woman is so stubborn. He'd rather die than talk about the key."

He was silent and for a while and the atmosphere became silent. The autumn wind blew, shaking some fragile leaves until they fell off their branches.

One of the yellow leaves fell into the folds of his shirt.

He took and crushed the dried leaves into powder. His handsome and calm face finally saw the person before him.

"What about the secret room?"

"Master, that space was built very solidly. It cannot be destroyed." The man may have been accustomed to the style of speech in front of him that is a lot of meaning and incomplete in every word he said.

"Continue the next plan,"

"Yes sir" the man understood.

"Then go, then" When that sentence was finished the man who had called him Master disappeared in an instant.

"We'll see who found the key first. Me, or you,"

His handsome face was grinning to be creepy.

The Autumn Hunt.

The event is held once every year. Usually, a large entourage consisting of Emperors, officials and some nobles would set out to the forest west of the center of the kingdom to hunt animals such as rabbits, deer, wild boars, etc, the biggest one is the bear.

In addition, autumn hunting is also a competency.

The soldiers who have just been inaugurated as royal soldiers will vie to appoint abilities. Whoever gets the most money and the highest value, then he will be the winner.

The nobles and people of the kingdom also did not want to lose. They also usually participate in the excitement of hunting, because each winner will be given a prize. If the victor was a palace warrior, then he would be raised to a higher rank. As for the nobles, they would be given a few taels of gold, which was enough for their lifestyle for several years.

As for the people of the palace, they will also be raised in rank and their families will receive blessings from the kingdom. Like, getting a higher degree and the cost of living that was forever borne by the kingdom.

So great was the prize that was obtained when he became the winner of the Autumn Hunt, many people were willing to do anything. Some even plan to finish off their competitors.

But, Huang Long prevented the unexpected occurrence by selecting every participant who would participate in the hunt. They will also be supervised by several people within the security division.

Regardless of what happens inside the palace, the tradition must always be carried out.

From now on, the Autumn Hunt will be held one more week.

Now, the palace is busy preparing all the necessities that will be needed during the hunt.

The distance from the palace into the Western forest took about three days.

Xie Hongyi is also given a new mission by the system that requires him to participate in his hunting event. He was also excited when he saw the waiters and eunuchs pacing around preparing necessities during the journey.

So his mission was to protect Huang Long from the assassins who were after him. Xie Hongyi had to be completely prepared as he believed this great mission must not be difficult but it was not easy either.

"What do I get when I complete this mission?"

[Absponding system automatically. Account users will be given 100 points and 200 exp]

100 Points and 200 exp points? Xie Hongyi repeated every word of the system.

Currently, he has 125.50 points from rescuing himself on the charge of the murder of concubine Li, 50 for the mission of comforting prince Jue, and 25 points from uncovering Consort Li's killer. The exp he had was 50, and to reach beginner level 4 in required a hundred points. If he managed to complete this mission, then it would only take another 50 exp to reach beginner level 2.

"Your system is too stingy. Why don't you give me a lot of experience to get straight to beginner level 1?"

"Answering. This is the policy of the center. If you have any complaints, please..."

Xie Hongyi knew what the system continued to say, so he hurriedly interrupted him.

"Yes, yeah I know. Can't really bargain?"

"No." the system replied in a flat tone.

After that they did not speak.

Later, Wan'er came up with some dishes that served some dishes. He walked slowly and very carefully. Any excessive movement, it would cause his body to become sick.

Blame it for the harsh training Xie Hongyi had ordered for him. His whole body is sick and also sore. In fact, Ling'er and Yi'er were worse, they could not get out of bed. So only Wan'er can now serve him.

Whether to be grateful or complaining, Wan'er can only resign.

"What about Ling'er and Yi'er?"

"Madam, this morning the healer said that they only needed to rest for a few days." Wan'er replied while putting the plate on the table.

"Oh."

Why didn't Xie Hongyi himself examine them when he was a doctor? The answer is because he is lazy for a while.

He wanted to relax before the mission.

"Tell Ling'er and Yi'er that they must prepare. We're gonna go on an Autumn manhunt,"

Wan'er could once again only obey.

Long ago, Ling'er and Yi'er were slaves who changed masters. He and the two men were sold by their employer several times.

By the time his master sold them into palace stewards, they met Xie Hongyi who became his new employer.

It used to be that every time they changed masters, they would be treated like slaves.

Who is resistant to oppression and torture? They also want to be free to lead a normal life.

Hope is only hope. They are self-aware that they are too weak and have no power.

Then they felt a different way when Xie Hongyi became their master. The imperial concubine treated them like friends, really not like servants.

But they also continued to serve Xie Hongyi in gratitude for his kind treatment.

They were also aware that all this time Xie Hongyi was providing hard training, it was a matter for themselves.

For people who had never been well-treated by anyone, this action of Xie Hongyi meant a lot to them.
