On the bed, flowers were sleeping soundly.

Suddenly awakened by a series of system voices——

【System Announcement: Important Mission!]

Please tell the host to immediately go to the garden and commit suicide by jumping into a lake, and in front of King Zhao and everyone else, declare that she does not want to marry into the prince's mansion.

The mission time limit is half an hour. If the host fails to complete the mission within the time limit, the mission will be judged as a failure.

One Lucky Reward Box

【Task failure will result in a heart-wrenching punishment】

Come on, host!

Hua Manman suddenly opened her eyes and sat up abruptly.

Before his mind was fully awake, his hands and feet were already moving instinctively to throw off the covers and get out of bed.

The maid guarding the door heard the sound and immediately knocked on the door.

"Second Miss, are you awake?"

After receiving confirmation from the second young mistress, the maids dared to push open the door.

As Si Yun served Second Miss while she washed up, she asked.

"It's still early, wouldn't you like to sleep for a while longer?"

Usually, the second young lady has the habit of taking a midday nap, usually sleeping for about half an hour. However, today she just lay down for a short while before waking up.

Flowers are in full bloom, but she cries without tears.

I don't want to get up now, I was just assigned a system task.

Before this, I was punished by the system for failing to complete a task, and it hurt so much.

This time, we can't afford to fail anymore.

I never want to experience that kind of heart-wrenching pain again.

Hua Manman didn't let the maids dress her up. After she finished washing and dressing, she hurried to the garden.

The garden of the Loyal An Mansion was very beautifully built.

Pavilions, platforms, towers and halls, mountains and water intertwine.

Flowers bloomed everywhere, but I had no heart to appreciate the scenery.

Now all you can hear is the sound of the system counting down.

That cold, impersonal voice sounded to him like a terrifying death knell.

Ignoring the calls of her maidservants, she dashed ahead at a speed that increased with every step.

When I ran to the lake, I saw a line of people standing on the opposite shore at a glance. The person in the lead was none other than King Zhao Li Ji.

Li Ji wore a scarlet, wide-sleeved brocade robe. His eyebrows were long and narrow, his hair black and tied loosely behind him with a black headband.

He had difficulty walking, so he could only sit in a chair. The upper half of his body leaned slightly to the side, and a strand of hair on his forehead swept across his cheek as he looked lazy and disheveled.

Lord Chung-an, bearing a flower, bowed slightly and spoke courteously to him.

All the people following behind hung their heads and stared at their feet, diligently serving as background scenery.

There are only three minutes left on the system's countdown.

We can't delay any longer.

Hua Manman took a deep breath and, with all her might, shouted to the person on the opposite bank of the lake.

"Father, I refuse to marry King Zhao! If you don't listen to me, I'll die in front of you!"

The voice was crisp and pleasant, reaching the ears of the people on the opposite shore of the lake.

Everyone was astonished.

Hua Dingzong was greatly shocked.

He subconsciously glanced at the King of Zhao beside him. Though the King's expression didn't change much, his eyes were colder and deeper than before.

Huadingzong's heart skipped a beat, it's over!

Although King Zhao has been recalled to the capital and is seriously injured, it remains unknown if he will ever be able to stand again, his past military achievements still give him high standing among the troops.

Nearly all the generals of the entire Zhou Dynasty looked up to him. He was a formidable person who could not be offended.

Hua Dingzong was furious, about to order someone to drag the second son back and lock him up. Before he could speak, the second son suddenly leaped into the cold, deep lake!

With a splash, the water in the lake rose high.

The maids who followed were all frightened out of their wits, their faces paling and they cried out in alarm.

“Oh no! Miss Two has jumped into the lake! Come quickly!”
