After rebirth, the regent did whatever he wanted to her

"Ninth brother, I, I..." The emperor was a little flustered. Looking at the silent person in front of him, he didn't know how to start for a moment.

He secretly guessed what the other person was thinking at the moment, but he could never figure out the true emotions hidden behind that calm face.

Finally, Si Xuan raised his head and looked at the emperor, but just this one look was enough to make the emperor break out in a cold sweat.

"Has your royal brother thought it through?" Si Xuan's voice was as calm as water, without any ripples in his voice.

The emperor took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then replied seriously: "Think it through."

Then, the emperor continued, "You know, since I ascended the throne, I have always kept in mind the responsibilities and missions I shoulder, and I dare not neglect them in the slightest. I am afraid that if I make the slightest mistake, I will be ashamed of my ancestors, my father, and even more so of you, my ninth brother!"

When the emperor was moved, his eyes even turned red.

If Eunuch Gao heard this, he would definitely criticize in his heart, "How can you say that? You dare not slack off. Aren't there enough times when you are lazy and slack off on weekdays!"

Si Xuan said nothing, but just looked at the emperor silently, with no disbelief in his eyes.

After a moment, Si Xuan picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

I really thought he was so easy to fool! Keep acting!

So he chose to remain silent for the time being and quietly observe the emperor's next move.

The emperor saw that he did not respond, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face. He thought to himself: "Why don't you answer the question? Otherwise, how can I continue?"

However, faced with such a situation, he had no choice but to continue speaking.

"Ninth brother, you see, I am old now, and now the burden on my shoulders is heavy. I really have no strength to do anything!"

The emperor spoke helplessly, but his eyes involuntarily drifted towards the expressionless man.

"The most important thing is that the prince is young, strong, talented, and has been handling government affairs with ease recently. Therefore, my ninth brother, do you think we should give the young man a chance to show his talents?"

Si Xuan didn't even bother to raise his eyelids, and directly retorted: "Royal brother, you are in your prime!"

He didn't believe a single word of this grand excuse.

The emperor was suddenly speechless: "..."

Isn't this the point?

"Uh, well, what I mean is... um, the prince..."

Oh, what I really want to talk about is the prince!

"Brother, to be honest, the prince's talent is indeed better than yours."

The emperor's face turned green when he heard this: "..." I don't want to save face? Even if the prince is more capable, I am still his father after all!

"Since my brother intends to give up his throne, you must give me a reason that will convince me."

Si Xuan stared at the emperor closely, wanting to see how long he could pretend.

The emperor looked embarrassed, but just thinking about the carefree days in the future, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ninth brother, I am a little lazy. Now that the other three countries have become vassal states, the state affairs will probably be more arduous in the future. I really feel that I have the will but not the strength!"

The emperor didn't care about face at all, since there were no outsiders here anyway.

"Oh, from what the emperor said, it is my fault. I shouldn't have turned the other three countries into vassal states of Dongpeng. This has added burden to the emperor!"

"Ah, no, that's not what I meant. Please don't misunderstand me, Ninth Brother."

The emperor quickly explained that he really didn't mean that!

"I know that I am mediocre in talent. If it weren't for you, my ninth brother, how could Dongpeng have a peaceful and prosperous era these years, and how could the people live and work in peace and contentment, let alone unify the Three Kingdoms."

"Nowadays, I am even less interested in state affairs. I am really not qualified to sit in this position anymore."

"Besides, the prince is diligent and ambitious, I..."

"Okay, I'll do as my brother says."

Si Xuan suddenly spoke, interrupting the emperor's next words.

"What? Ninth brother, what did you just say?"

The emperor thought he was hallucinating and didn't understand why he suddenly agreed.

"If the emperor didn't hear clearly, then forget it."

Si Xuan glanced at him again, seeing his frightened look, he decided to let him step down as soon as possible, as it was indeed difficult for him to handle the heavy responsibility in this state.

"No, no, no, I heard you clearly, Ninth Brother, you agreed, you can't go back on your word!"

The emperor was so excited that he could finally live a carefree life. Thinking about the good days in the future, the emperor couldn't stop smiling and he kept grinning.

Si Xuan looked at the emperor with a slight smile on his face.

He thought to himself, his brother is really impatient. Others are trying their best to hold the throne in their hands, but for him, the throne is like a hot potato and he can't wait to throw it away.

However, it's better this way. The sooner this matter is resolved, the sooner he can put down his burden.

"Brother Emperor, if that is the case, then let's arrange the abdication ceremony as soon as possible."

Si Xuan said in a calm tone.

"Okay, okay!" The emperor stood up excitedly, "I'll order people to prepare it right away!" With that, he left in a hurry.

Si Xuan looked at the emperor's departing back, feeling filled with emotion.

"Girl, was that the emperor just now?"

Old man Qianji suddenly asked, holding the chess piece in his hand.

"Master, he is the emperor."

Feng Qi placed a chess piece and answered truthfully.

"Why is this different from what I imagined?"

Old man Qianji frowned, and it was unknown why he was dissatisfied.

Hearing this, Feng Qi instantly became interested, "Then what should the emperor be like in Master's eyes?"

"At least it shouldn't be like that just now..." Elder Qianji shook his head, "Master has heard that Emperor Dongpeng is a man who is decisive in killing and has ruthless methods. He is very talented in governing a country."

Feng Qi chuckled, "It seems that rumors cannot be trusted." She thought of the emperor's previous behavior in front of her, and he really didn't seem like a wise ruler.

"However, he is courageous enough to decide to abdicate so easily," said old man Qianji meaningfully.

"Master, do you think he's not bad?" Feng Qi was a little surprised.

"That's not what I meant."

Elder Qianji explained, "I just think that it's not a bad thing that he can recognize his own shortcomings and is willing to give up the throne."

"Yes, I understand." Feng Qi nodded, "But, this way, the burden on the prince may be lighter."

After all, if a capable person becomes the emperor, he will have less to worry about.

"Yeah, this way you two can spend more time together."

Old Man Qianji said jokingly with a smile.

Feng Qi: “…”

This master has also become a bad person!
