Who Is The Protagonist’s Best Friend? I Want To Be A Villain

Chapter 74 Lin Hao’S Fate Was Downgraded And He Became A Pseudo-Protagonist

In the Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace.

It was already night at this time, but Emperor Qian was still dealing with the memorial. Being an emperor was not easy.

Of course, if you choose to be a foolish king, you will definitely be happy.

But based on Daqian's current situation, if he becomes a foolish king, he may be overthrown in a short time.

A faint king may still be ignored and forgotten, but a king who has subjugated his country will be nailed to the pillar of shame forever.

Emperor Qian Xia Yan naturally did not want to be the king of subjugation. On the contrary, he wanted to be the master of the revival of the Great Qian Dynasty and restore the glory of the Great Qian Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, this is from the Imperial City Department."

Eunuch Li took a memorial and placed it in front of Emperor Qian.

Qianhuang picked up the memorial and opened it, looking at the content inside, his expression kept changing.

With a final "bang", the memorial was slapped heavily on the table.

The contents of the memorial are all related to Cao Xu, and they are all about Cao Xu's important task of receiving an army of 60,000.

Cao Xu conducted a blood transformation of low-level officers in the army, allowing Xu Chu and the trapped camp to forcibly suppress dissatisfaction, killing more than a thousand soldiers, not counting those who were captured.

The people from the Imperial City Division who got the information naturally reported to Emperor Qian.

Of course, this was not the reason why Emperor Qian was furious.

The reason why Emperor Qian was furious was that the deputy general Luo Hui he sent was beaten with twenty army sticks by Cao Xu for any reason. He was seriously injured and fell unconscious.

Luo Hui was sent by him to represent his face.

Cao Xu wasn't hitting Luo Hui, she was hitting him in the face.

"Cao Xu is a man without authority. Last time he had someone slap Wu Sen in the face, and this time he hit Luo Hui. He was not hitting Wu Sen and Luo Hui. He was clearly hitting me in the face. .”

"I helped him gain military power and made him a general. Not only did he not appreciate me, but he also refused to give me face. He is just feeding unfamiliar jackals."

Emperor Qian stood up angrily.

"Your Majesty, please calm down, you are the Nine-Five Supreme, and A Bi is as knowledgeable as the little King of Wei.

Eunuch Li was on the side to persuade Emperor Qian to calm down.

Under the persuasion of Eunuch Li, Emperor Qian finally calmed down the anger in his heart.

"I'm afraid I made a mistake this time. Let Cao Xu take control of the military. I'm afraid I'm feeding a tiger into trouble."

"Your Majesty is overly worried. As soon as he takes control of the army, King Wei's methods are so violent and will not win the hearts of the people. Your Majesty still has a chance to control these 100,000 troops.'

Eunuch Li knew about Emperor Qian's plan.

The 100,000-strong army nominally placed under Cao Xu's control was actually planned by Emperor Qian to be in his hands.

Cao Xu had never even been in the army, and Emperor Qian didn't think he could command an army of 100,000. 737 As long as Cao Xu does not have this ability, the deputy general Luo Hui he sent will come in handy. When the time comes, Luo Hui can step by step eliminate Cao Xu.

But before the plan even started, Luo Hui was seriously injured and had to lie down for a month.

And judging from Cao Xu's methods written in the memorial, I'm afraid he can't really control an army of 100,000.

He underestimated Cao Xu again.

"Are we going to allocate money to Cao Xu to recruit 40,000 soldiers and horses?"

Emperor Qian asked Eunuch Li.

"Old slave, go and ask."

Eunuch Li left quickly to inquire. He lost it quickly and came back quickly.

"Your Majesty, the money has been taken away by Cao Xu."

“He moves pretty fast.

Emperor Qian had a sullen face, which looked very ugly at first glance.

Originally, he wanted to hold up the silver coins that Cao Xu had recruited, but Cao Xu took them away in advance.

"Let him cut off the military pay and food from now on."

Emperor Qian said with a cold face.

"Your Majesty, what if Cao Xu turns to Prime Minister Wang Bo because of this?"

Eunuch Li didn't want to bring trouble to Emperor Qian, but this was indeed a problem. Cutting off military pay and food for Cao Xu would indeed relieve his anger, but what would be the consequences?

"If he dares to fall to Wang Bo, I will kill him first." Emperor Qian's attitude was very tough.

"This matter is gone. If he understands the situation, it's okay. If he doesn't, I will get rid of him first.

Although it is true that the biggest opponent is Wang Bo, before dealing with Wang Bo, it is not worth the loss to really have a conflict with Cao Xu.

But he is the emperor of Daqian, and he will not let Cao Xu manipulate him.

Also, a strong man appears next to Cao Xu from time to time, and this time there is another Xu Chu.

This has made Emperor Qian more and more fearful, and he has long had the idea of ​​​​getting rid of Cao Xu.

"Cao Zhengchun, how is the Dongchang you built?"

Emperor Qian looked at Cao Zhengchun.

He is still more concerned about Dongchang. Although some of Dongchang's functions conflict with the Imperial City Division, this is exactly what Emperor Qian wants.

Because Xu Yuan, the former deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, betrayed and helped Cao Xu frame Chen Yongan's death, Emperor Qian could no longer completely trust the Imperial City Division.

Since one Xu Yuan can appear, it is possible that a second, third, or even countless Xu Yuan will appear.

The emergence of Dongchang and Zhuochengsi check and balance each other.

In addition, the people in Dongchang were all eunuchs in the palace, so they gained his trust.

"Back to Your Majesty, I have selected many good talents, but..."

(aech) "Just what?" Emperor Qian frowned.

"Your Majesty, Deputy Governor Zhao Chun has been rebelling against the slaves, which has slowed down the progress of establishing the East Factory."

Cao Zhengchun directly filed a lawsuit against Zhao Chun.

It's not a denunciation. Deputy Governor Zhao Chun has indeed been opposing him.

When Emperor Qian heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He could allow some struggles for power in the palace.

But Emperor Qian would not allow it if it delayed his affairs.

"Let Zhao Chun come over, I want to ask him carefully."

"After the Dongchang is established, I will focus on the Wei Palace.

"This slave obeys your orders."

Cao Zhengchun accepted the order without any change in his face.

At the same time, in the palace of Prince Wei, he remembered that he had not visited Lin Hao, the son of destiny, for several days.

Cao Xu plans to "visit" Lin Hao again.

"Where are you going, husband?"

Seeing Cao Xu walking out, Lu Qingli couldn't help but ask.

"Go to the dungeon."

"I want to go and see it with my husband."

Lu Qingli knew that Lin Hao was the only one imprisoned in the dungeon. Cao Xu had said this when chatting with her.

"Then let's go."

In the dark and damp dungeon, Lin Hao raised his head after hearing the movement.

He was going crazy after being detained here for so long. If it weren't for the hatred in his heart that kept him gritting his teeth and persisting, he might have committed suicide long ago.

By the firelight, Lin Hao saw Cao Xu and a woman with an extremely delicate and beautiful face walking in.

"You are the Lin Hao who assassinated my husband."

Lu Qingli's eyes looked at Lin Hao, filled with cold murderous intent.

He picked up the iron-thorn whip among the torture instruments and waved two whips directly at Lin Hao.

If Cao Xu hadn't said that Lin Hao's life was still valuable, Lu Qingli might not have simply given him two whips at this moment, but cut off his head with a sword.

Lin Hao endured the pain, sweat dripped from his forehead, and the number of people he hated in his heart increased again.

"Husband, can I give you a few more whippings?"

"Forget it, I'm afraid you'll beat him to death.

Cao Xu stopped Lu Qingli, and Lu Qingli struck very hard. The two whips brought down large pieces of flesh and blood.

The protagonist, who was already extremely weak, might actually be beaten to death.

Cao Xu did not plan to kill Lin Hao until he found another sheep that produced wool.

"Do you still remember what I said to you before? What are your thoughts? Do you want to worship me as your adoptive father?"

Cao Xu asked Lin Hao.

Hearing Cao Xu's words, Lin Hao, who was enduring severe pain, had some sparkles in his eyes.

Being imprisoned here, he cannot escape by himself. All the meridians and acupuncture points are sealed, and the True Qi in his body cannot function at all.

His body was tied up with iron chains made of fine steel, and his lute bones were pierced and he couldn't exert any force. It was impossible for him to escape from the dungeon on his own.

As for relying on others to rescue him? Who can save him?

His father Lin Ye is dead, can he rely on his mother Yin Shuyun?

Before, he lost his mind in anger and spoke harshly to his mother, Yin Shuyun. Now that he has calmed down, Lin Hao also knows that his mother's commitment to Cao Xu was definitely not voluntary.

He must have been forced, and Cao Xu even used him to threaten his mother.

His mother probably couldn't get Cao Xu to let him out.

"I am willing to.........become your adoptive father.

Enduring the humiliation in his heart, Yin Hao spoke.

It is undoubtedly a humiliation to consider Cao Xu, a younger man than him, as his adoptive father, and his self-esteem is completely shattered.

[Ding, break the protagonist's self-esteem and make him recognize the thief as his father. Get: luck +5000, villain value +250,000]

"Acknowledge a thief as your father? System, you are scolding me, aren't you?"

If you accept a thief as your father, isn't he the thief?

[The host is the real murderer who killed Lin Ye. You are his father-killing enemy. Now he regards you as his adoptive father. Is it okay to accept a thief as his father? ]

Listening to the system's rebuttal, there is indeed nothing wrong with it.

Forget it, since the harvest is so high, I won’t care about the system.

Five thousand luck, 250,000 villain points, which is more rewarding than killing Lin Ye and destroying the protagonist's life. It has an extra 100,000 villain points.

"This self-esteem is quite valuable."

Cao Xu is smiling.

Seeing the smile on Cao Xu's face, Lin Hao wanted to chop Cao Xu, the thief, into pieces and swallow him.

But in order to escape from the dungeon, he had to hide his hatred and show a smile that was uglier than crying.

Lu Qingli on the side was confused and didn't understand why Cao Xu wanted to accept Lin Hao as his adopted son. Although Lin Hao tried his best to disguise it, Lu Qingli still saw Lin Hao's hidden hatred.

"A verbal promise is not sincere enough. Why not kneel down first and give me a big salute?"

After Cao Xu's words, Lin Hao couldn't help but bite something.

"I'm not very convenient right now."

"You are willing to worship this king as your adoptive father. Are you still calling yourself me in front of me? Remember to call yourself my son from now on."

Cao Xu's face showed dissatisfaction.

Lin Hao wanted to kill someone, but he was not the kind of person who could tolerate it.

But at this moment, in order to leave this dungeon, Lin Hao had to choose to endure it.

"Kid...I know."

Lin Hao said while holding back the humiliation.

He swore in his heart that Cao Xu would never die a good death.

"Add the word "adopted father" in front of it.

"Father, the child knows.

"Yes, that's right." Cao Xu nodded with satisfaction.

[Ding, make the protagonist feel extremely humiliated, and get: villain value + 100,000]

It only has villain value, so it doesn’t matter. Cao Xu also lacks villain value.

Then he saw Cao Xu strike out with his palm. Lin Hao noticed that Cao Xu struck out his palm, and was extremely shocked and angry. Could it be that Cao Xu wanted to kill him?

Fortunately, he was not dead. Cao Xu did not kill him, but just shattered the chains on him.

Lin Hao felt much more relaxed after losing the shackles of the chains. He was overjoyed. Did Cao Xu really keep his promise and let him out?

Although Cao Xu said last time that if he recognized him as his adopted father, he would be let out.

But Lin Hao didn't trust Cao Xu's words.

"It was inconvenient for you just now, but now it's convenient for you to kneel down and salute me, right?"

Cao Xu's words made Lin Hao know what it meant to be happy too early.

I broke the chains on him, not for

Instead of letting him go, he asked him to kneel down and salute.

Kneeling down to salute Cao Xu is another kind of humiliation, but he has already come this far. He was called Cao Xu's adoptive father before, so it would be a big loss to back down now.

"My foster father is here, please accept the gift of a child."

Lin Hao endured the severe pain in his body, knelt in front of Cao Xu, and knocked his head.

This kneeling took away all dignity.

Lin Hao swore in his heart that Cao Xu would get back a thousand times what he endured now.

[Ding, accept the protagonist as your adopted son, get: luck +3500, villain value +200,000]

[Reminder, Lin Hao's luck has been greatly reduced, his status is unstable, and he has been demoted to the status of a pseudo-destiny's son. ]

“What does false destiny child mean?”

Cao Xu remained calm and began to ask about the system in his heart.

[The Pseudo Son of Destiny may have smooth sailing with ordinary people, but when meeting the real Son of Destiny, he will become a stepping stone for the opponent. "The host can understand that the halo of the protagonist has been cut off.

bandit. ]

Cao Xu understood that now Lin Hao still has luck, but the remaining luck can only make him a pseudo-protagonist at best.

The protagonist's destiny of turning misfortune into good fortune and turning disaster into good fortune has been directly weakened.

If Lin Hao meets a new Son of Destiny, there is a high probability that he will become a stepping stone for the other party and suffer the same fate as a villain.

"The value is greatly reduced."

Cao Xu was not surprised, he had already guessed that this day would come.

Because Cao Xu doesn’t believe it either, the protagonist’s luck is endless and he will run out of luck sooner or later.

"System, is it possible for his luck to be restored?" Cao Xu asked the system.

[Everything is possible, but it is very difficult to restore luck. The system believes that the host will not give him this opportunity. ]

Cao Xu said nothing. If he acquiesced to the system, he would not give Lin Hao this chance.

Even if Lin Hao's luck recovers and he can start again, Cao Xu will not give him this chance.

Lin Hao knelt on the ground and bowed his head.

Cao Xu didn't speak, and he didn't get up either. He just knelt down in front of Cao Xu.

"Hahahaha, my son, get up quickly, my son, get up quickly."

Suddenly Cao Xu laughed loudly and asked Lin Hao to stand up.

[Ding, humiliate Lin Hao, get: villain value + 2]

After becoming a pseudo-protagonist, Lin Hao's output was not as good as before.

Cao Xu was slightly disappointed.

Fortunately, Lin Hao can still produce some value, and Cao Xu has no intention of killing him for the time being.

He likes to maximize profits and has to squeeze all the value out of Lin Hao.

"Let's go." Cao Xu said to Lu Qingli.

Then the two of them walked outside. Lin Hao immediately followed after seeing this, but when he reached the door of the cell, an invisible force stopped him.

Immediately afterwards, the cell door was closed again, and Lin Hao was locked inside.

Lin Hao's expression changed. Cao Xu was not trustworthy. What he was most worried about had happened.

In fact, he had already expected this possibility. He just wanted to take a gamble, but the result told him that Cao Xu's character really couldn't be gambled on.

"Cao Xu, you are not trustworthy." Lin Hao couldn't help shouting.

"Next time you want to take advantage of yourself, remember to act better, or at least put the hatred in your eyes away. Your acting skills are terrible.'

Cao Xu turned his head and glanced at Lin Hao.

Cao Xu then ignored Lin Hao's incompetent rage and left the dungeon with Lu Qingli. .
