[Ah, the male protagonist arrived so quickly.] 1314 watched the imposing figure standing at the door and sighed, [Did the male protagonist install a radar on you, host? Once he senses that the host is in trouble, he rushes over to help.]

It was the same in the previous instances. Anyone who provoked or caused trouble for the host, this person resolved the issues before the host even had a chance to act. The court has been in chaos lately, and the host had enemies to the left and right. Normally, there should be many people wanting to cause trouble for the host during this time, but, surprisingly, the host remained undisturbed, not a single person bothered him.

In this storm that almost engulfed the entire court, the host stood unaffected. It wouldn't believe that this was because of the male protagonist's interventions.

[I have Qi Mingxuan's people around me, don't you know?]

[What?!] 1314 exploded. It thought highly of the male protagonist, seeing how different he was in front of the host compared to the original plot. Unexpectedly, the male protagonist sent someone to monitor the host!

Li Shu was now used to 1314's ever-changing mood, it was sometimes gloomy, sometimes happy. He calmly dropped a bigger bomb, [It's not just Qi Mingxuan; I have spies planted by the Emperor, the Left Prime Minister, the Eldest Prince, the Fourth Prince, and many others around me. How about it? What, you don't know any of the spies placed around me?]

1314 truly had no idea. It only paid close attention to those near the host. When issues arose with these individuals, the host swiftly handled them, usually without him needing to report them. It now felt disappointed. It boasted that it was an outstanding graduate of the System Academy but it was unable to contribute to its first mission. In the new mission, the host was too powerful, and it couldn't be of much help.

[Host, since you know they have ulterior motives, why let them stay around you?] 1314 was puzzled. Shouldn't they resolve issues with people harboring ill intentions as soon as possible, just like the few spies dealt with earlier?

[Even if I got rid of this group, new ones would come sooner or later. I know their identities, so I naturally guard against them. If this group is gone, I'd have to reconfirm everyone around me for potential issues. Too troublesome.]

Knowing who the spies were, the information that came out of their mouths was naturally what Li Shu wanted to circulate. As long as those people didn't cross his bottom line, he could turn a blind eye.

As for Qi Mingxuan placing people around him, Li Shu had already noticed it. However, these people remained quiet, not making any moves or leaking information, so Li Shu went along with it.

But...

Recalling the system's words earlier, Li Shu snorted in his mind. It seemed like these people had not spread any news to their master, but he was different from others. Unlike other spies who were eager to report every detail to their masters, Qi Mingxuan's people only reported to their master when they felt he was in danger.

That's why Qi Mingxuan was able to rush to him so promptly every time. He used to think it was all a coincidence, but now it seems those coincidences were intentionally created.

It was really... baffling.

It was probably the same this time. Li Shu's eyes fell on the man standing against the light.

'Why?' Li Shu couldn't understand. Qi Mingxuan was the Chosen One, the proud son of heaven recognized by the world consciousness. Even though he was young and faced difficulties, as long as he got through it, a bright and magnanimous future awaited him. Power, money, and beauty, as long as he wanted, he could get. With a wave of his hands, a lot of people would send them on their own initiative.
