Chapter 12: System Settlement! Summon Zhao Gao! Emperor Qing's Honey Trap!

In the Qing Yu Nian World, Great Grandmasters are transcendent beings.

They are fundamentally different from so-called Eighth Rank and Ninth Rank experts.

A Great Grandmaster can contend against tens of thousands of soldiers and still retreat unscathed.

It can be said that Great Grandmasters are the nuclear weapons of this world.

Therefore, Emperor Qing painstakingly sought to eliminate Ku He of Northern Qi and Si Gu Jian of Eastern Yi City.

Only by eliminating Great Grandmasters, who can suppress a nation alone, would it be possible to unify the world.

To reach the Peak in this world, one must Cultivate to the Great Grandmaster Realm.

Therefore, Li Chang'an had always been Cultivating Bei Ming True Energy and Six Meridian Divine Sword.

Fan Xian, the original Son of the Plane, had not even achieved a Breakthrough to Great Grandmaster by the time Wu Zhu killed Emperor Qing.

If Emperor Qing, that old schemer, hadn't been curious and wanted to see Wu Zhu's laser eyes, he would have been the final victor.

Li Chang'an was unwilling to gamble his life on another's curiosity.

He was still young, and his martial arts Cultivation was only at the Second Rank Upper Level.

Thus, he needed an expert to protect himself.

Li Chang'an opened the System's store and checked some interesting characters and their summon descriptions.

The life and death of characters summoned by the System are at the host's whim, and they are absolutely loyal to the host.

Summoned characters will integrate into the Qing Yu Nian World in the most reasonable way, so as not to appear abrupt to the people of this world.

This means that summoned characters must also conform to the rules and logic of this world.

Li Chang'an would only establish his own residence after finishing his studies, and until then, he would live in the imperial palace.

Given this, summoning a eunuch expert would be the most suitable option.

"Cao Zhengchun, leader of the Eastern Depot, Ninth Rank, 6000 points."

"Yu Huatian, head of the Western Depot, Ninth Rank, 6000 points."

"Zhao Gao, controller of the Net, Ninth Rank, 6000 points."

...Li Chang'an was quite fond of these three at the very top.

The original ambitions of these eunuchs would cease to exist; they would be completely loyal to Li Chang'an.

Their ruthlessness and cunning would be entirely directed at his enemies!

As bodyguards, the strength of these three was sufficient.

However, an intelligence network was an essential asset for Li Chang'an in the future!

In the Qing Yu Nian World, power struggles and schemes were ubiquitous.

The strongest means to counter or break conspiracies was a powerful intelligence System.

Powerful intelligence Systems like the Brocade-Clad Guards and the Surveillance Bureau could even determine the rise and fall of a nation.

Therefore, upon seeing the words "Net," Li Chang'an decided to choose Zhao Gao!

The Net was a vast intelligence and Assassination organization, renowned for its omnipresence, like a Net covering heaven and earth!

Besides his own formidable strength, Zhao Gao was an elite intelligence operative.

In other words, he was also a powerful teacher.

Li Chang'an would be responsible for discovering talent, and Zhao Gao could secretly train them.

Li Chang'an also intended to learn skills such as Assassination, disguise, tracking, and espionage.

These gradually cultivated and honed abilities could be inherited through Reincarnation.

From this perspective, Zhao Gao, as an espionage teacher, personal bodyguard, and intelligence chief, was absolutely perfect.

[Consumed 6000 Mortal World points, successfully summoned Zhao Gao! Zhao Gao will arrive by the host's side in the quickest and most reasonable manner.]

With some Mortal World points remaining, Li Chang'an chose a Secret Manual for light body martial arts.

Because light body Secret Manuals were relatively cheap, and learning them made it easier to escape.

To grow and become powerful, survival is paramount!

Li Chang'an remembered that Wang Qinian of the Surveillance Bureau was most proficient in light body martial arts.

His light body martial arts allowed him to travel a thousand li at night, and even Ninth Rank experts couldn't catch him!

Therefore, Old Wang was known as the equal of a Great Grandmaster!

Because if he couldn't win, he could run!

When he was young, his Meridians were weak, and the speed of Cultivating True Qi was limited.

It was perfect to learn a light body martial art, which could also save his life!

[Consumed 3000 Mortal World points, exchanged for the top-tier light body martial art, "Lingbo Microstep"!]

Lingbo Microstep combines both footwork and light body martial arts, allowing one to be elusive at short distances and travel a thousand li in a day.

When using this footwork in combat or for travel, it can also slowly increase True Qi, killing two birds with one stone.

This light body martial art was originally a divine skill for preserving life and escaping, and after being modified by the System to adapt to nuclear radiation rules, it would at least make him faster than Wang Qinian.

After the successful exchange, the Secret Manual for Lingbo Microstep appeared in the System space.

A few days later, Eunuch Hou arrived with a beaming smile.

Li Chang'an always felt that Eunuch Hou's smile was very lewd.

"Your Highness Prince Yong, the eunuchs and palace maids have all been brought to you!"

"There are a few young palace maids that this old servant specifically chose for Your Highness."

"If it weren't for choosing the palace maids, they would have been sent a few days ago."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shuyan immediately took out a golden hairpin and gave it to Eunuch Hou.

"Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch."

Eunuch Hou was overjoyed and called all the palace maids and eunuchs in.

One hundred palace maids and one hundred eunuchs stood quietly in the courtyard.

Each one was well-behaved and cautious.

Li Chang'an noticed that the dozen or so girls standing at the front were extremely beautiful!

Each one was exquisitely delicate, with fair skin and bright, clear eyes.

Especially a pair of twins, who were the most lively and adorable, their beauty clearly a cut above the rest.

As he observed these two young beauties, Eunuch Hou also revealed a triumphant smile.

"I was just afraid that Your Highness Prince Yong wouldn't like them; this old servant put a lot of thought into it!"

"Some of these young palace maids are only eight years old."

"They are all from families that have fallen into decline, with no one to rely on, and were bought from outside."

Li Chang'an now understood why Eunuch Hou was smiling so lewdly.

However, he always felt something was off. Why would Emperor Qing specifically buy palace maids for him?

What was that old schemer up to?

As his thoughts raced, Li Chang'an had a bold guess.

Emperor Qing was a man who planned three steps ahead.

He bought these beautiful palace maids possibly to make Li Chang'an develop a habit of being lustful from a young age.

This way, Li Chang'an would lack ambition in the future and would not threaten his son's imperial power.

After all, Li Chang'an had grabbed a hairpin and rouge during his first birthday ceremony, so being lustful was destined.

Li Chang'an couldn't help but curse inwardly, "This Prince is only five years old!"

You're already using a honey trap at five years old!

Emperor Qing, you're despicable!

Li Chang'an looked closely and found that the two little girls actually had martial arts talent!

Seeing Li Chang'an staring at the little girls without moving his eyes, Liu Shuyan couldn't help but show a worried expression.

However, Eunuch Hou was completely oblivious.

"Eunuch Zhao, come in."

A pale-faced, beardless young eunuch entered with practiced small steps.

As soon as he reached Li Chang'an, he immediately prostrated himself on the ground.

"Your servant Zhao Gao greets Your Highness Prince Yong!"

Eunuch Hou nodded in satisfaction, "Eunuch Zhao is indeed sensible."

Then, he turned to Li Chang'an, his face once again creased into a chrysanthemum-like smile.

"Your Highness Prince Yong, this is the bodyguard His Majesty had Eunuch Hong specifically choose."

"He is not old, but he is already at the Seventh Rank Upper Level Realm."

Li Chang'an looked at Zhao Gao's panel, which clearly stated Ninth Rank Upper Level!

Name: Zhao Gao

Age: 32

Realm: Ninth Rank Upper Level

Talent: Espionage (Ninth Rank), Management (Eighth Rank), Scheming (Fifth Rank), Martial Arts (Seventh Rank)

Abilities: Espionage (Ninth Rank), Management (Eighth Rank), Scheming (Sixth Rank), Tracking (Sixth Rank), Disguise (Sixth Rank), Assassination (Sixth Rank), Poison Arts (Sixth Rank)...

Emotion: 100 (Absolute Loyalty)

The Zhao Gao summoned by Li Chang'an indeed appeared before him in a reasonable manner.

Zhao Gao had hidden his Cultivation, as Ninth Rank was simply too conspicuous.

The Zhao Gao summoned from the System's store had maxed out espionage abilities.

He possessed Sixth Rank abilities in a series of assassin and spy skills, such as tracking, disguise, Assassination, and poison arts.

After all, he didn't have to do everything himself; without talent, reaching Sixth Rank was his limit.

This was an espionage Great Master with equally rich practical experience and knowledge reserves!

With Zhao Gao, he could begin secretly setting up the Net!
