Rebirth of the Beautiful Repaying Gratitude: Quick Transmigration and Childbirth System

"Xiao Ling, what happened in the palace?"

"Host, the Crown Prince has poisoned the Queen to death, the Emperor is dying, and the Second Prince has run away. Do you think this is a big deal?"

Xiao Ling's voice was somewhat teasing.

"This is not just a big deal, I'm afraid it's going to be a big mess."

Liu Qianyu hurriedly called Liu Chan.

"Chan'er, quickly send a message to all the shops, asking them to stock up on large quantities of herbs and medicinal materials. The more the better. Quickly!"

Although Liu Chan didn't understand what he meant, she still nodded and left in a hurry.

Inside the palace, the atmosphere was solemn and depressing.

Yun Zimo stepped into the emperor's bedroom, only to see several important ministers coming out one after another with solemn expressions on their faces, each with complicated thoughts in their minds.

After he stepped forward and exchanged greetings with everyone, he went straight to the emperor's bedroom.

Inside the bedroom, the dim candlelight illuminated the pale face of Emperor Ji Yuan.

He lay quietly on the bed, breathing weakly, as if he would disappear into thin air at any moment.

Yun Zimo slowly knelt down beside the bed.

"Your humble servant Yun Zimo pays respect to Your Majesty."

Emperor Ji Yuan slowly opened his eyes and his gaze stayed on Yun Zimo for a moment, as if he wanted to gain a deeper insight into the heart of this young minister.

He coughed lightly a few times and spoke with difficulty. Every cough seemed to tear his chest apart.

"My dear Yun."

"I am here, Your Majesty."

Yun Zimo took a step forward and bowed to wait.

"Draft an edict for me."

Emperor Ji Yuan was panting, his voice weak.

Yun Zimo immediately walked over to the pen and ink that had been prepared long ago, and waited for Emperor Jiyuan's instructions.

However, Emperor Ji Yuan did not speak immediately, but stared at him quietly with an almost scrutinizing look.

"My dear Lord Yun, which prince do you think is suitable to inherit the throne?" Emperor Ji Yuan suddenly asked.

"Your Majesty, I think that the first priority for the successor is to be as benevolent as Your Majesty, to be able to sympathize with the sufferings of the people and to love them like their own children."

"Only in this way can we continue your majesty's benevolent rule and continue to lead our Cangwu country towards prosperity."

"Hahahaha...it seems I have no choice."

There was a hint of self-mockery and sadness in Emperor Jiyuan's words.

"Draft an edict...pass the throne to the crown prince..."

Yun Zimo quickly picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote the will word by word.

After drafting the edict, Emperor Ji Yuan was exhausted and he slowly closed his eyes.

The news of the emperor's death was like a bolt from the blue and spread throughout the palace in an instant.

The funeral bell sounded low and long, echoing among the empty palaces, adding a heavy touch to the change of imperial power.

"His Majesty has passed away!"

Following this heavy announcement, the entire bedroom fell into dead silence, followed by a mixture of crying and chaos.

Yun Zimo took a deep breath, turned towards the ministers, and spoke in a firm and powerful voice.

"Your Majesty has passed away. Here is the will. Crown Prince Yuwen Hao will inherit the throne. All the ministers should work together to assist the new emperor and ensure the safety of the country."

Upon hearing this, all the ministers knelt down and shouted "Long live the emperor". Their voices resounded through the sky, but they could not hide the complex emotions in their hearts.

Some people were full of loyalty to the new emperor, while others were secretly calculating the future situation.

Yuwen Hao walked in slowly, his face pale and haggard.

"My father has passed away, and I am deeply saddened. However, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Since I have inherited the throne, I must fulfill my duties conscientiously and live up to my father's trust and the expectations of the people."

Although Yuwen Hao's words were brief, each word was powerful.

The new emperor ascended the throne and changed the reign title to Taichang. The change of power was accompanied by storms.

Many court officials were purged because of their stance, causing panic among the people in the court and the country, and undercurrents of various forces.

In this power reshuffle, the most eye-catching thing is Yun Zimo's rapid rise.

At the age of nineteen, he was promoted to the first-rank minister by Emperor Taichang.

This appointment instantly caused an uproar in the court, and Yun Zimo became the youngest prime minister in history.

Inside the Yun residence, the aroma of tea wafts through the air.

"Brother Yun, Miss Liu, I have come here today to say goodbye. I have already resigned from my post to His Majesty and will return to Qinhuai Songfeng Academy to take over as the principal."

Wei Zekai smiled slightly, his eyes showing a hint of sadness.

"Brother Wei, you have finally decided to leave."

There was a hint of emotion in Yun Zimo's words.

Wei Zekai nodded with a firm look on his face.

"The situation in the court is complicated and changeable, which is not my forte. My father is old, Songfeng Academy needs me, and I also want to train more talents for Cangwu Country."

"Brother Wei is a man of high moral character and indifferent to fame and gain. He is truly a role model for our generation. Please give my regards to our teacher."

Yun Zimo patted Wei Zekai on the shoulder.

"I wish you a safe journey, Brother Wei. I wrote a letter, and I would like to ask Brother Wei to pass it on to Miss Liu Yin, No. 6, Qingquan Lane, Qinhuai Bishui Street."

Liu Qianyu quickly signaled Liu Chan to bring pen and ink.

"Don't worry, Miss Liu. I will definitely hand it over to Miss Liu Yin personally."

Wei Zekai looked at the two good friends in front of him and felt much calmer.

All good things must come to an end. I wish all lovers will eventually get married.

In the first year of Taichang, the fifth prince Yuwen Shuo and his mother's family rebelled.

Yuwen Shuo published an impassioned anti-rebellion manifesto to the world:

"Yuwen Hao, you murdered the king, usurped the throne, killed your father and harmed your mother. Such behavior is intolerable to heaven and earth, and is condemned by ghosts and gods!

I, the fifth prince Yuwen Shuo, am of royal blood, and my heart is broken and I am filled with indignation. How can I sit back and do nothing?

Therefore, today we raise our arms and swear to fight against the rebellion, not for our own selfish reasons, but for the sake of all people in the world and to eliminate the traitors for our country.

Anyone who captures and kills Yuwen Hao and his accomplices will be rewarded handsomely.

Those who submit to me will not be held accountable for their past, and we will work together for our great cause.

I hereby declare this, and may the gods of heaven and earth bear witness to it!"

When this manifesto was released, the whole world was shocked.

This manifesto not only challenged the authority of the new emperor, but also dropped a bombshell between the government and the public, triggering countless suspicions and panic.

Early morning court session in the Golden Palace.

Emperor Taichang Yuwen Hao, wearing a dragon robe, sat upright on the dragon throne.

"How dare the traitor Yuwen Shuo do such a treasonous thing!"

Emperor Taichang's voice echoed in the empty hall, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

He wished he could eat Yuwen Shuo's flesh and drink his blood.

All the ministers were silent, and no one dared to refute.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to volunteer to suppress the rebellion and kill the traitor Yuwen Shuo, so as to rectify the government and calm the people."

Yun Zimo slowly stood up, with an upright posture and a firm gaze, and bowed to Emperor Taichang.

As soon as this statement came out, the whole court was in an uproar.

Yun Zimo, the Prime Minister who had not even reached adulthood but had already reached the highest position among the officials, actually volunteered to quell the rebellion?

What are you picturing?

Emperor Taichang's gaze lingered on Yun Zimo for a moment, then he looked very pleased and issued an edict immediately.

"I am very pleased, and I have specially appointed the Prime Minister Yun Zimo as the Grand Commander-in-Chief to suppress the rebellion, to take charge of the overall situation of suppressing the rebellion, command the three armies, and suppress the rebellion! I also ordered the national defense general Li Xiaofeng to assist Yun Qing with his outstanding military exploits, to face the national crisis together and defeat the enemy!"

"I have made up my mind. I order you two to set off today. You don't have to wait for food and fodder. You must stop the rebels as quickly as possible!"

"I also want to announce to the world that rumors stop at the wise. I hope my people can distinguish right from wrong. When the rebellion is quelled, I will reward the people according to their merits and share the joy with them!"

"I accept the order and thank you!"

Yun Zimo and Li Xiaofeng responded in unison and then knelt down to receive the order.

As soon as the imperial edict was issued, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and the battle to quell the rebellion began.
