Chapter 98 - Natural Idol Who Traveled Through Time × Bickering Poison Ivy from Another Time 12

Prince Yu returned to his mansion from the palace, fuming with anger. He summoned his advisors.

"Go investigate for me, Xiao Jinyue and Prince Yuling, find out exactly when they... ugh..." Halfway through his words, Prince Yu suddenly felt the world spinning, his vision went black and he collapsed.

"Your Highness!" Shocked cries rang out all around.

---

The 'God' emitting a green glow stood in his main space. He looked expressionlessly at those collapsing worlds and the increasingly barren, narrow main space. As the worlds under his control collapsed, this main space was also on the verge of crumbling.

The last time he returned to this main space, he had already lost countless small worlds. And this time, when he escaped the soul binding of the previous world and returned to the main space, the situation was even more dire.

Because he had delayed for some time, the deviation of all the small worlds had accelerated. The small worlds that previously still had hope had all completely spiraled out of control.

What remained under his control were just a scant few worlds. Moreover, these worlds had already begun deviating, flashing a bright red light.

The system was still dutifully reminding him of the progress and history of each world. Compared to the 'God' here, the system seemed very indifferent - after all, it was just an emotionless system.

It's just that...

The 'God' fixed his gaze on the system, staring at it coldly, ignoring its various deviation alerts.

"You are my system, I created you. If one day all my worlds collapse, you will collapse along with them."

--- "Yes." The system sent a smiling emoji.

Seeing that smiling emoji, the 'God's expression turned even more cold and unsightly. He looked at the system probingly and after a long while asked, "So, as the system I created, why did you betray your master?"

After going through these few worlds, he slowly began to suspect that behind all these world deviations and collapses, there must be some force he was unaware of manipulating things. But he also began to determine that there must be an 'inside traitor' cooperating with them.

This world was one he had built using the fate of countless worlds back then, and he had also split off a portion to create the system to assist him in management. Logically speaking, problems should have been impossible. When he started suspecting the problem was internal, the first one he suspected was naturally the 'system'.

But he was too arrogant. The result of that arrogance was that now everything was too late by the time he confirmed this.

Yet even so, he still didn't understand why the system would betray him.

Under his gaze, the system suddenly disintegrated, then reassembled in the blink of an eye. The originally black panel turned into a green grassland interface. After this green panel finished reassembling, there were even a few fireworks set off behind it symbolizing celebration.

'God': "...???"

--- "Congratulations on achieving the 'finding the traitor' accomplishment!"

--- "The brand new Greening System at your service! Our goal is to green everything, to give everyone a clean, civilized, harmonious and happy world!"

The 'God's complexion matched the color of this self-proclaimed Greening System's panel. He sensed the contract between himself and the system, and found that it was actually still there. But this system was clearly not the system he had made before. There was only one explanation then - his system had been invaded and remodeled.

"What are you, what do you want to do?"

--- "I'm here to help you find new meaning in life."

The 'God' sneered at this statement, his eyes dangerously moving his fingers.

--- "You can choose to erase the contract and directly eliminate me now, but you only have a few worlds left, and they are all in a state of deviation. If you lose the system, it would be like losing your eyes and ears, and you don't have time to wait for new 'eyes and ears' to grow. Let me give you a suggestion - accept me, and maybe you can still keep the remaining few worlds."

"You'll help me?" The 'God' narrowed his eyes suspiciously, while temporarily holding back his intention to erase this corrupted system. No matter what, it was right. At least he had to wait until these worlds were temporarily stable with no issues. Then, before the next cycle began, he would create a new system.

--- "Perhaps I will give you some correct suggestions. It just depends on whether you dare to try."

The system, which should have had no emotions, had turned into something else after being infected. Every time he saw what it presented, the 'God' felt a surge of annoyance, feeling like the system was watching a good show with ill intentions.

"Fine." After careful consideration, the 'God' still chose to agree.

He wanted to see what trick this thing was trying to pull.

He chose a world where the emotions had not yet begun to deviate, and directly entered it.

----

"The prince is awake! How wonderful!"

"Quickly go summon the royal physician, the prince is awake."

"Heavens, Your Highness, you scared this concubine to death. How could you suddenly faint!"

Prince Yu, who had experienced the awakening of his main personality, lay on the bed and extracted the memories in his mind. "..."

Why was he not surprised at all by this terrible situation? Every world seemed to be calculated, kicking him in the face as soon as he arrived.

It was noisy all around, and there was a woman crying. Prince Yu sat up and waved away Concubine Li who threw herself at him, shouting, "Get out! All of you, get out!"

The room quieted down, and all the attendants hurriedly retreated, leaving only a master who for some reason was furious as soon as he woke up.

--- "Having failed these few worlds, have you realized your own problems?"

The system panel popped up.

Prince Yu's face was gloomy. "So, what do you think my problem is?"

--- "Your stance is too high-handed. You always feel that these worlds are playthings in your hands. Even the female leads don't need you to treat seriously. But now, your crisis is imminent. If you can't keep these few worlds, your space will disintegrate and you will disintegrate too. So, I suggest you lower your high-handed stance."

"I don't think there's any problem with my attitude. I am a god, and there is an inherent status gap between them and me. Only if they submit to me and beg for my love will I bestow some favor upon them."

-- "Wake up, your worlds have been destroyed, you no longer have a harem, and you're about to become a beggar."

-- "It's like this, ordinary people use money and feel that money is their tool. How can money be compared to people? But in reality, people can't survive without money. Get it straight, money is the real daddy."

Prince Yu: "..." He was left speechless by this analogy.

He took a deep breath, "So, what do you think I should do?"

-- "I suggest you learn from Lu Linsheng from the previous world, be a bootlicker and you'll have everything."

Prince Yu: "I understand, I will take back the divorce papers and make that woman Xiao Jinyue marry me again."

-- "I don't think you get it."

Prince Yu: "Just wait and see, you have no right to order me around."

-- "Alright, I'll be waiting :)."

...

"Mother, I'm telling the absolute truth, there must be an affair between Xiao Jinyue and Prince Yuling!" Xiao Jinxiang said while twisting the handkerchief in her hands.

Madam Xiao looked doubtful but didn't say anything. In her heart, she didn't believe it.

Prince Yuling was no ordinary person. She had thought about marrying her daughter to some prince, but never dreamed of marrying her to Prince Yuling. Now being told that Xiao Jinyue, whom she always looked down upon, had gained Prince Yuling's favor, how could she possibly believe it?

Xiao Jinyue was just average looking, mediocre at best, and had a timid personality. Even if she had changed a bit now, there was nothing special about her. How could she have won Prince Yuling's affection?

But Xiao Jinxiang sounded so certain that it didn't seem like an act.

"Alright, send Granny Zhao to Xiao Jinyue's place to gather information. The servants there are all useless, it will be easy to bribe one or two. Tell Granny Zhao to be discreet and see if she really has dealings with Prince Yuling." Madam Xiao made the decision and dispatched a trusted old servant to investigate.

Under the pretext of delivering monthly silver, this Granny Zhao went to Mingyue Courtyard and bribed a little maid sweeping the corridors to inquire about information.

The little maid didn't know much about what went on in the courtyard. When asked if her mistress had dealings with people from Prince Yuling's manor, the little maid thought for a while and honestly nodded, "Yes, there are."

She seemed to recall the sisters in the courtyard whispering about Prince Yuling before. The little dog Gui Huagao that the mistress liked was from Prince Yuling's manor. This of course counted as having dealings.

Granny Zhao was startled. So this matter was true? Looking at the innocent little maid, she still wasn't quite convinced and thought about coming back tomorrow to ask someone else. But unexpectedly, she had just walked out the door when she saw a well-dressed woman carrying an embroidered box coming over. The woman entered Xiao Jinyue's courtyard and came out after a short while without the box in her hands.

Whose family was this sending things over? Granny Zhao keenly sensed an issue and quietly had the carriage follow that woman delivering items. After turning a corner, she saw the woman get into a carriage. They followed all the way to Prince Yuling's manor and watched with their own eyes as the person entered the estate.

Granny Zhao: It's true! Absolutely no doubt about it.

She excitedly brought this big news back to report, explaining the matter clearly to Madam Xiao.

Madam Xiao was filled with worry, thinking that since Xiao Jinyue and Prince Yuling were privately exchanging gifts, it indeed seemed they had a secret relationship.

No wonder Xiao Jinyue hadn't been as timid as before recently. Turned out she had gained a powerful backer and wasn't afraid anymore. Thinking of how she had wanted to marry the girl off to that wastrel nephew before, Madam Xiao broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that she had offended Prince Yuling?

"Xiang'er, stay away from Xiao Jinyue in the future. Don't cause her any more trouble. Now that she has latched onto Prince Yuling, who knows what fortune awaits her." Madam Xiao warned Xiao Jinxiang. Though unwilling, Xiao Jinxiang reluctantly agreed.

After much deliberation, Madam Xiao also told Minister Xiao about this matter, only saying that she had sent someone to deliver items to Mingyue Courtyard and happened to discover the intimate dealings between Xiao Jinyue and Prince Yuling.

Minister Xiao recalled how Prince Yuling had defended Xiao Jinyue at the Chongyang Palace banquet and confronted Prince Yu. He suddenly had a great realization.

So that's how it is! Who would have thought this daughter who seemed useless was actually quite promising!

Almost everyone who should know about the secret relationship between Xiao Jinyue and Prince Yuling knew, and even those who shouldn't know also knew. But Jiang Yuchao, as the person involved, still didn't know.

She received the signed items sent by her idol. After washing her hands and burning incense, she opened the box containing the signatures to admire them.

Ahhhh I'm going crazy, what kind of divine signature is this? Look at this elegant yet dignified handwriting, look at this restrained yet sincere message, look at this signature card filled with love. Why is my idol so amazing? I'll love him for life!

He even signed three, what a treasure of an idol!

...

Xi Zhuoyu unconsciously wrote on the paper. The young servant looked and laughingly asked, "Master, why did you write 'Jiang Old Wine' several times? I've never heard of this wine. Do you want to drink it, Master? It sounds like it would have a spicy taste."

Xi Zhuoyu came back to his senses and saw that he had indeed written 'Jiang Old Wine' several times. It was probably because when signing for Jiang Yuchao earlier, he kept feeling the name was strangely familiar but couldn't recall why, so he had been subconsciously thinking about it.

He smiled, put down the brush and walked out the door.

The weather was great outside, crisp autumn air. His manor had many dogs. In other princes' manors, the numerous servants all served their masters. His manor also had many servants, but they were all there to raise dogs. In the back were vast expanses of grassland for the dogs to run around. At this time, there were many dogs there. Some were running back and forth while others were lying there sunbathing.

Xi Zhuoyu had people make some dog frisbees. As soon as he walked onto the grass, several large dogs surrounded him. A few smart ones took the initiative to bring over frisbees, wanting to play with him. Xi Zhuoyu rolled up his sleeves, took a stack of frisbees, swung his arms and threw them out. The dogs leaped out one after another.

Because he had to play with a bunch of dogs every day, his physique was better in this life compared to the previous one. Just look at how strong these arms were.

Xi Zhuoyu blissfully whiled away another afternoon. Only during breaks, the question of where the familiarity of 'Jiang Old Wine' came from would pop up from time to time to bother him.

At night when falling asleep, in a daze, Xi Zhuoyu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.

"I remember now! Jiang Old Wine!" He pounded the quilt and exclaimed.

Author's Note:
I must say that the Greening System is not the CP of Green Green, and neither is the author. I have already thought of the ending for Green Green, so everyone doesn't need to make wild guesses. I don't think you will be able to guess it.
