Chapter 227: Rebellious Officials and Traitors
【certainly! 】
The system agreed: [Fortunately, your expectations are higher, which increases your favorability a little. ]
After the official announcement of the program, the system has been monitoring the changes in Ye Xiyao's favorability in real time. Because of the good luck attribute of treasure hunting, Ye Xiyao is expected by more people, and the resulting increase in favorability, which gives the system more authority to operate.
While the program was being intensively prepared, Ye Xiyao was also working hard to hide treasures in Ning County.
"Is this really going to happen?" Ye Xiyao looked around. In the deserted valley, her words seemed to carry a hint of echo. She looked at the man who was digging, "Cao Sheng, are you sure the production team will come to this desolate mountain?"
Cao Sheng glanced at her and said, "You hired me to help you, why are you talking so much nonsense?! I have dug more graves than you have eaten!"
After being rebuked by Cao Sheng, Ye Xiyao was dissatisfied, but she could only keep silent because of Cao Sheng's "experience".
After a long time, Ye Xiyao finally found her voice again after the system spoke, "Cao Sheng, go to the largest second-hand goods market in Ning County later. Can you find someone you know?"
"Ah."
"Okay, I'll put two there later."
Just when Ye Xiyao was making arrangements in full swing, a large number of behind-the-scenes footage of "The Foolish Emperor and His Concubine" were released online to start the early promotions.
Although the title of the drama was criticized by many netizens, the female killer played by Nangong Ying attracted a lot of fans.
[Really, I haven't seen such a courageous heroine in a long time! ]
[Isn't this crew moving too fast? It feels like I just saw the news of the filming wrap up a second ago, and now they're already warming up? ]
[Looking forward to Nangong Ying's female killer! ! Ah! Both variety shows and TV series. ]
As the popularity increased, Nangong Ying was preparing the things she was going to take back to Ning County without realizing it. However, her popularity caused the system to directly punish Ye Xiyao, which made Ye Xiyao miserable.
"Nangong Ying is just a country girl who doesn't know what's good! She won't be able to compare to me when the variety show starts! It won't be too late for you to punish her then!"
She curled up on the bed, her sweat soaking the bedding, and angrily belittled Nangong Ying in an attempt to get the system to let her go this time.
The system was unmoved: [She doesn’t know the value of the goods? How could she not know the value of the goods?! Do you know who she is…]
Ye Xiyao managed to reply, "She is just a country girl whose father and mother died!"
[How could the best people in the capital not know the daughter of a noble lady from a distinguished family? Do you think that I am asking you to make these preparations as icing on the cake? You are simply...]
Along with the system's string of words came even harsher punishments.
While Ye Xiyao was shouting at the top of her lungs, a trace of doubt flashed through her mind, "Legitimate daughter? The best in the capital?"
The system stopped the punishment and no longer made any sound. It was so quiet that it seemed as if it had never appeared.
How could it just say that? This was the plot twist it had just identified, how could it just say it out loud!
The people in the Fu family's old house were also extremely excited.
"Fu Nian, believe me! What the He family got is definitely not all the treasure. Nangong Ying is under your command. You will definitely be able to find the real treasure if you catch her!" She looked at her son, whom she had been waiting for so long, with excitement, a little crazy.
Fu Nian's eyes were indifferent. "I can make money by myself, and I can also support the reputation of the Fu family. The treasure has nothing to do with me, and it has nothing to do with you! Don't forget, the Wen family has been destroyed..."
He laughed sarcastically, "The Wen family's plan ends here."
Mother Fu stretched her hand forward from the window, "No, even though the Wen family is gone, I am still a member of the Fu family! I am also doing this for the Fu family! The treasure must be found!"
"I told you, it's impossible." Fu Nian slapped the wheelchair armrest fiercely, his eyes as cold as a sword, "Even if we find it, it belongs to the Nangong family. How long do you want to use me?"
"Whoever finds it owns it!" The old man who had been silent all this time forced himself to sit up from the bed and started to scold, "The Nangong family is nothing but traitors! The Fu family taking the things of the traitors can be considered as getting rid of harm to the people!"
"Who said Nangong was a traitor?" Fu Nian had never heard of this before, but it piqued his interest.
The old man coughed a few times, "If he wasn't a traitor, why would he hide and threaten our five families for so many years? Ahem, the archaeological discoveries clearly show that the Nangong family rebelled! You feel at ease taking their things! You, bastard, why weren't you so kind when you put your relatives under house arrest?!"
Although the old man was under house arrest, he was able to watch TV and follow current affairs. As the text of the Southern Chu State was deciphered, the image of the Nangong clan as traitors was gradually pieced together. He watched this kind of news and made inferences, which made him more convinced that he had done nothing wrong.
"You're just comforting yourself, old man." Fu Nian suppressed his thoughts and drove the wheelchair out of the old house.
Nangong Ying is leaving for Ning County today, and he wants to see her off.
