Ye Xun said in a humble tone: "The main focus of this drama is the theme of heroes. In troubled times, the heroine rises from an ordinary person to a scumbag. She fights wits and courage with various villains to calm down the crisis."
Liu Ruyan said she understood.
She looked at the character bar below. The female protagonist's avatar showed her disguised appearance, which was somewhat ambiguous; the male protagonist's avatar showed a mask.
Not to mention other characters who have not yet appeared, only a few question marks represent them.
Looking back at the playback interface, the barrage is still popping up:
“Look at the hero’s highlight moment!”
"Pull her down, this is the heroine."
"The one who wears the mask is the male protagonist. This kind of force is worthy of our bowing down and worshiping him."
"Wait a minute, isn't the male protagonist the villain mentioned in the introduction? According to the routine, such villains will eventually be strangled."
"It is strongly recommended that the heroine and the hero fall in love and kill each other!"
"Gan!"
"Ditto!"
"Follow me!"
"Keep formation!"
The barrage went viral, and a poignant and melodious melody suddenly came from the screen, and the scene shifted to the underwater scene.
Liu Ruyan could clearly see how she "kissed" the male protagonist, it was in slow motion, with no blind spots, and with rotation.
The picture is so beautiful that I can’t bear to look directly at it.
In response, she spat out a mouthful of old blood.
"Yexun, didn't we agree that the positioning part would be difficult to review, so you should cut it off for me!"
Ye Xun trembled and immediately hid in the sea of consciousness.
"Host, don't get excited. This episode is actually quite normal. It can pass the review from the neck up, so it can be broadcast to make it popular."
Sure enough, the barrage started to flood the screen again:
"The heroine is such a man, rise up!"
"This is a must-watch drama this year, so pay attention first and then talk about it."
Liu Ruyan was stunned. Although the barrage had been replaced with ancient Chinese characters, the wording was strange and elusive.
"Host, please look at the prestige value at the bottom of the character column, click to follow, and your prestige value will increase." Ye Xun explained.
"Can I send this kind of barrage?"
"If the host dictates it, it can be converted into text." Ye Xun clicked on a button.
She folded her hands on her chest and said in salute, "I'm Liu Ruyan, I've met all of you."
"Nice to meet you."
"Caught a female lead, alive."
She then said: "Liu is not good at words, which makes you laugh."
"you are welcome."
"Where, where."
…
After the night banquet was over, Liu Ruyan returned to the side hall to sleep, while the envoys were arranged to stay in the Mingyi Hall not far away.
The next day, the sky was gloomy and the wind was cold.
Liu Ruyan leaned lazily on the Maitreya couch, holding a cup of tribute tea in her hand.
Ye Xun appeared, like a young man who had never seen the world, pointing at the ancient paintings and pottery in front of her, his eyes shining.
"If any antique in this palace is put up for auction, the host will transform into a rich woman in minutes."
Liu Ruyan took a sip of hot tea and looked wealthy: "My Liu family is not short of these things that are short of gold and silver."
Ye Xun expressed his soreness: "Host, please accept my knee."
She was about to answer when suddenly a shout came from the outer wall, like thunder on the ground, breaking the tranquility of the morning.
"Quickly, catch the assassin——"
Heavy steps could be heard from far to near.
Just when she felt it was clear and definable, there was a knock on the door, each one more urgent than the last.
"Liu Lieutenant, open the door quickly, Your Majesty is summoning you urgently!" the guard ordered.
Deputy Lieutenant of Yihui was Liu Ruyan's military position in the imperial court. She was a military official, ranking from the seventh rank, to cover up her status as a scout.
For convenience, she always wears men's clothing.
"I know." Liu Ruyan hurriedly pulled up her hair and followed the guards out of the palace.
As far as the eye could see, I didn't know what was happening in the palace, but all the imperial guards were dispatched to prepare for the attack.
Liu Ruyan was led to a place, which was the Mingyi Palace where the envoys were settled. Huaihua General Wu Guang, whom he had met once before, came over with a gloomy look on his face.
"Has Wu Zuo come?" Wu Guang asked the waiter.
The chamberlain replied with a pale face: "Not yet, but Deputy Lieutenant Liu is here."
Wu Guang glanced at Liu Ruyan and saw how thin she was. He couldn't help but snorted: "He's here to help."
The guard who brought her over saluted Wu Guang and said, "According to the Holy Order, Deputy Lieutenant Liu is asked to monitor the scene."
"Just him?" Wu Guang looked at the thin Liu Ruyan again and again.
The guard nodded and whispered to Wu Guang: "This man is familiar with reconnaissance and assassination. Maybe he can find some clues."
"That's alright." Wu Guang waved his hand and motioned for Liu Ruyan to come over.
Liu Ruyan nodded slightly to General Wu, and then she walked towards the chamberlain in front of the door, her tone was quite respectful: "May I ask my father-in-law, what happened here?"
The chamberlain lowered his eyes and felt a little unstable: "The envoy... is dead."
Liu Ruyan frowned, obviously surprised: "What's going on?"
"The Zajia family was guarding outside. The envoy said that he wanted to take a bath, so the Zajia family sent hot water."
The chamberlain said intermittently: "After a moment of burning incense, the Zajia thought that it was time to finish the work, so they came in to take a look. Who knew that they would see such a scene."
The waiter was still frightened: "As soon as I entered the room, I saw blood all over the house."
After hearing this, Liu Ruyan said, "Let me go in and take a look."
Stepping into the palace door, she could smell the blood mixed in the wind.
The room was still smelling of earthworms, and she followed the permeating smell to a bathroom.
A screen appeared in front of me, with a carved mahogany frame and heavy embroidery on white silk. The embroidery work was exquisite, imitating the painting techniques of the Western Regions, and it was as lifelike as it appeared on the cloth.
But I saw a beautiful woman embroidered on the screen. Her clothes were half-covered, and her gracefulness could be seen.
She has long hair as black as a waterfall, her breasts are slightly covered, her eyebrows are lowered, and she holds a comb in her bare hands to shed her black hair, which looks like a picture of a lively beauty taking a bath.
Liu Ruyan stared at the screen.
The beauty on the screen slightly hooked up her red lips, and a scarlet red suddenly appeared on her originally beautiful face, and blood beads rolled down, making her look oozing.
Through the screen, there was a figure behind the screen, his head drooped, motionless at the moment.
Liu Ruyan walked over and saw the envoy sitting in the bathtub, naked, and the water in the bucket was dyed red with blood.
Ye Xun was shocked. Thinking that the system was still broadcasting live, he hesitated: "Why don't you turn it off first?"
"No need, as a scout in troubled times, you will inevitably encounter dead people in the future." Liu Ruyan approached the corpse and exposed the wound on his neck.
The audience started to explode:
"It turned into a thriller in an instant, and I almost died of fright."
"Hurry up and open the barrage protection!!"
"What are you doing?" When Wu Guang came in, he saw Liu Ruyan looking through the corpse.
After the envoy's death, the main hall was sealed for fear of damaging the scene and hampering the handling of the case.
"We're looking at the cause of his death." Liu Ruyan didn't even raise her head.
"Do you still know how to do autopsies?" Wu Guang was surprised.
Liu Ruyan said: "No."
"Then what are you doing here?"
Wu Guang felt that this kid was simply unreasonable and was deliberately trying to cause trouble.
Liu Ruyan did not change her expression under Wu Guang's eyes.
She examined the wound carefully and said calmly: "Although I don't know how to do an autopsy, I do know how to attack a tall man with brutal physical strength."
"For example, where to lurk in, what weapon to use, what techniques to use, and how to hide from others and escape capture. The same goes for the murderer of the envoy."
"Right now, we only need to look at the traces left by the murderer to capture him in the shortest possible time."
