The System Make Me Near With The Emperor
Chapter 25

"Quick-count my points system!" Xie Hongyi said excitedly inside the horse carriage. At the moment Xie Hongyi looked like a child looking forward to a candy for the good things he did.

After claiming the desert region as the territory of the southern kingdom, one day after they traveled to return to the palace. They also decided not to kill the surviving northern troops, but to make them prisoners of war. The news should have reached the Northern kingdom already, but they had not made any moves yet.

Wu Zhantian was one of the great Generals in the North. They'll want to take him back.

Xie Hongyi was happy yet slightly dissatisfied. Next time he would not carelessly use points anymore, otherwise he would become poor. "Huh, it's a good thing that Huang Long will reward me. I hope he gives me a lot of money." Imagining this, Xie Hongyi's eyes sparkled and seemed to change into coins of money. Xie Hongyi then said again. "System, you have to give this kind of mission often, so that, I can get points and also rewards."

The system finally knew that Xie Hongyi was a greedy person. He then spoke to Xie Hongyi with his systematic tone slightly up. [Are you not satisfied with just getting points?]

"System, you can't scold me. This is what is called throwing a bird with one stone. Also, what's wrong with asking my husband for money? He's rich anyway, so he can't go broke if I ask him for a little money." Xie Hongyi continued after a slight pause. "You say that like you're human."

The system seemed to be really angry with Xie Hongyi because after that he was silent. No matter how hard Xie Hongyi asked him to speak again, the system was unshakable. Long-time Xie Hongyi was also annoyed because he was like talking to himself. He eventually ignored the system.

The group stopped to rest by the lake. Xie Hongyi saw that the lake was in a forest. The day started at noon, and when people saw the water, they quickly went there. Although it is already in autumn, the weather when in the daytime is still hot.

Not long after, the group of soldiers who were ordered to hunt them back. The group carried a forest deer and three rabbits. When they saw Xie Hongyi, their eyes twinkled. From his gaze, Xie Hongyi knew that they wanted him to cook it.

After the game was cleaned up, Xie Hongyi began to bake it. The aroma produced by the grilled animal made people drool. When they tasted Xie Hongyi's cooking again, they showed satisfied faces.

After the meal, the Northern troops began to resume their journey. But when the train left, they were suddenly attacked by people in black. It seems like it's not the assassins, but the bandits who rule the forest. "Quick! Take their treasure!" Shouted one of the bandits.

Those bandits really knew how to take advantage of the unwary atmosphere of the people. Apparently, they had been watching over Huang Long's group ever since. The Southern army was outnumbered by that bandit group, so they were overwhelmed by it. Moreover, those bandits turned out to be martial arts experts. Huang Long, General Jiang and General Mo also looked overwhelmed when fighting their group.

The South warrior's breath was panting and their faces were flushed red. They did not have time to wipe away the flowing sweat as the group of bandits quickly swung their swords. One of the southern soldiers whispered. "Are we going to die here?"

Seeing clearly the unfavorable situation on his part, Xie Hongyi did not want to stay silent. He quickly got down from the carriage while carrying a sword then swung his sword at one of the bandits who was about to slash at Huang Long.

Huang Long, who had noticed Xie Hongyi coming out of the carriage, was feeling anxious the next day. He firmly said to the woman. "You want them to kill you? Stay on the train!"

Xie Hongyi trembled slightly when he heard Huang Long angry. But if he doesn't help, then the southern army will be completely gone. With this confidence, he had the strong determination to refute Huang Long. "I'll help! No matter you say no to me!" Huang Long was slightly dizzy with the stubborn Xie Hongyi. But he could not say anything more as the bandits started attacking again.

Xie Hongyi then also made an attacking move towards the bandits. Not long after, he managed to subvert five bandits at once. Seeing the movements of Xie Hongyi, the soldiers who had been desperate and resigned to death in the hands of bandits, finally moved again, as if getting the urge to fight. They could not possibly lose to a woman! That selfish feeling appeared in their hearts.

The situation had now turned into an overwhelmed bandit group. The leader of the group became a little panicked when most of his men were successfully crushed. The leader of the group then saw the shrewd Xie Hongyi drop his men, and he had one plan. Through a glance of his eyes, he beckoned to his men. Then the group of bandits surrounded Xie Hongyi, then they took out a black smoke bomb. They threw him a large amount so that everyone's gaze was blurred.

Xie Hongyi who was in the fog did not realize someone was standing behind him. Then as he was about to turn around, his neck was struck by a blunt object. Darkness came to his sight and he fainted.

None of the items were stolen when the fog disappeared. But that bandit group managed to kidnap Xie Hongyi! Huang Long's face darkened. Then with his authority as leader, he gave orders. "Quick find their trail! Don't let a single one get away."

General Jiang and General Mo immediately obeyed Huang Long's orders. "Your Majesty." Then they went to look for traces of the bandits.

A cave on the edge of the forest.

Some people seemed to be clustered while discussing. On their right side, Xie Hongyi was lying unconscious.

"Boss, what are we gonna do with this woman?" Said one of the bandits who had a scar on his forehead while pointing at Xie Hongyi.

The bandit boss also had no idea what he should do. He also could not dispose of Xie Hongyi as the only booty that had been successfully taken from the group, was only this woman.

One of the other men suggested. "Boss, how about we just sell him to Mr. Haowei on the black market?"

The bandit boss's eyes became bright. "Great idea!"
