The world is broken, the cubs mend it

Listening to the child's tender yet powerful voice, Pei Zhiyan always felt that there was a misunderstanding in his understanding of the child.

Although Pei Yuanyuan is young, she is a person with strong opinions. She doesn't know much but she knows very clearly what she wants.

He taught his child to write and read so that she could understand things, but for most literate women in the world, their future lives can be foreseen at a glance.

The child didn't want to be a woman who wasted her time in the inner chambers, and he didn't want her to live that kind of life either.

"You want to be the emperor? Even if there are many hardships and obstacles in the future, you will not regret it?"

"Yes, I won't regret it in the future."

Yuanyuan nodded firmly. Her father once said that only those who have endured hardships can become successful people. So if she wanted to do something, she wanted to be the best.

"it is good!"

Pei Zhiyan raised his hand and gently pinched her tender cheek. She had such insight at such a young age, and her future would definitely not be ordinary.

Since she wants to be the supreme emperor, I will be the sharpest sword in her hand to clear all obstacles for her.

"Daddy, what can I do to make everyone live happily?"

During the time that Yuanyuan followed her old father to quell the rebellion, she witnessed many life and death separations, and the sufferings of the people. After returning, she also experienced betrayal and saw the warmth and coldness of people's hearts.

In such a cannibalistic feudal era, all children were urged to grow up, and she was no exception.

"Be a wise ruler. Only when the country is strong and the people are rich can the people live and work in peace and contentment."

The people under Daqing's rule did not live happily. Since the previous emperor, there had been constant wars of all sizes for decades, the treasury was empty, and taxes were forcibly levied, and the people had long been complaining.

"But I don't know how to be a wise ruler. Dad, please teach me. You must know how to do it."

Yuanyuan looked at him with bright eyes, full of expectation and trust.

"I will assist you, but before that, you must study hard. If you want to be the ruler of a country, you must not slack off in the future."

Pei Zhiyan rubbed her head and put her on the ground. There were still a lot of memorials piled on the desk, and he also needed time to consider how to pave the way for the child.

He didn't care how the people lived. If the child wanted to be an emperor, he would help her become a king who would be obeyed by the people and be admired by future generations.

Caizhi, who was standing by, felt her blood boiling with excitement as she listened. She could already imagine how grand the girl's coronation ceremony would be.

If the girl becomes the emperor, I will be the first-class aunt in charge of her, and her life will be worth it.

But looking at the child squatting on the ground rubbing mud, she couldn't help but sigh, feeling that the road ahead was still a long way off.

"Good fellow, you still want to be an empress? Will you have a harem in the future? Will there be any handsome men or something?"

007 suddenly perked up and asked her questions with his ears pricked up.

This guy was a career-oriented guy when he grew up in the previous dimension, and he's been an empress in this life. Is it okay to show him something that adults should see?

The favorability level on the panel is almost full, and she won't leave early anyway, so it's nice to try the Empress' side quest.

"Can't understand…"

Yuanyuan mumbled something back to it, not understanding what it was trying to say.

"..."

007 held her chin and fell silent again. She always felt that she should set up a career system because she was too ambitious.

And it's just a rogue rabbit who loves to look at handsome men!

The targets of the cub's strategy all look good, but it is from the child's perspective, and they are all fathers.

As rumors that Pei Zhiyan returned to the palace and his young daughter proclaimed herself emperor grew more and more intense, even though those memorials were suppressed, officials continued to submit them.

In order to stop this absurd idea, they even spread rumors, saying that Pei Yuanyuan was a disaster star and that if he became emperor, Daqing would be in danger.

Looking at the secret reports and memorials submitted every day, Pei Zhiyan couldn't help but want to laugh.

The news that the child is going to become emperor has not been confirmed yet. It is just a rumor at present, but it makes these men so scared.

It is simply laughable to be so afraid of a child who has not yet grown up.

The emperor also tried to find out his intentions between the lines every day, fearing that his throne would change hands the next day.

This rumor spread for a full six months until the spring of the following year when it finally died down. When the court officials saw that he had never mentioned supporting the young girl to become emperor, they finally put their worries to rest.

Yuanyuan's determination to become emperor became more and more determined day by day. He studied harder and never complained of being tired.

At the age of five, she had already read a lot of poetry and books, and could write beautiful and neat characters. She also learned a lot of good strategies for governing the country from her father.

He would start practicing basic skills in horse stance before dawn every day, and dance with the peach wood sword in his hand with great vigor, and his sword moves were sharp and graceful.

Hearing footsteps not far away, Yuanyuan immediately put away her sword and ran towards the palace gate. It was her father returning from court.

"How was your practice today?"

Pei Zhiyan was embraced by her and he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

“I feel like I’m getting better and better!”

Yuanyuan grew very fast and was almost as tall as Pei Zhiyan's waist. She was much taller than other children of the same age.

His body has grown taller and he is no longer as chubby as he was when he was a child. The baby fat on his face has not faded away and he still looks chubby.

"Rest for a while and then go eat. Someone from the Wardrobe will come to measure your size later."

Pei Zhiyan took her little hand and walked towards the main hall. Caizhi immediately called someone to serve the meal.

"Would you like to make me new clothes?"

Yuanyuan looked up at him in confusion. All her clothes were delivered as ready-made clothes and she had never had anyone come to take her measurements for her.

"Yes, it is the dragon robe to be used for the coronation ceremony."

It has been more than half a year since she mentioned the idea of ​​becoming emperor. Pei Zhiyan delayed for so long, partly because he wanted to see how long she could persist and not act on impulse.

"Can I be the emperor now?"

There was some anticipation and excitement in Yuanyuan's tone. She thought that she had to grow up before she could become a real emperor.

Because Daddy always said that she still had a lot to learn.

"It will take about three months, so just be patient and wait."

The production of the dragon robe and the preparation of the ceremony both take time. The current emperor has not yet been dealt with, so Pei Zhiyan will speed up the process to allow her to ascend the throne smoothly.

One month later——

At three quarters past three in the morning, the funeral bell in the palace rang three times. The emperor had been indulging himself with his concubines late at night, and when he was at the peak of his passion, he suddenly fell down and lost his life. This was commonly known as "horse wind" among the people.

The emperor's funeral was very simple. All the concubines moved to the imperial mausoleum to guard the tomb of the late emperor. The court officials were arguing over the selection of the new emperor.

The twenty-four departments in the palace have already begun preparing the ceremonial guards and pomp required for the new emperor's enthronement.

The dragon throne behind Pei Zhiyan in the hall was hanging vacant. The King of Shu, who had been entrenched in Shu and eyeing the emperor covetously, also became restless after hearing the news of the emperor's death.

The eyes of the court officials were all on the podium. When they heard that Pei Zhiyan was going to help Pei Yuanyuan take the position, strong resistance broke out from below.
