Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Yao Feiran had no intention of killing the other party, as it would leave him with a handle to use against him, saying that Prince Chen killed his own brother in order to seize the throne. At most, she would ask him to return later and let Prince Chen make his own decision.

As Prince Ying looked at Yao Feiran, who was resting with her eyes closed, his thoughts raced.

"I know who you are. Tian's Business Group has provided a lot of support to Prince Chen, and has even trained a private army and weapons for him in Yue. Is Tian Youjun one of your men?"

"You know quite a lot." Yao Feiran looked surprised. She had been very discreet, but she still managed to leave a few clues.

"If you help me, I can promise you the position of Empress, and your family will also benefit from this."

Yao Feiran fell silent. Ying Wang thought there was a chance and continued, "I know that you originally came from a humble background and have an older brother who is only a minor official. Now you are over twenty years old and as a woman, you also want to find a good husband."

Yao Feiran said calmly, "I don't want to be the Empress, I want to be the Empress Dowager. Are you willing to die?"

"......."

Now that the Prince of Ying had completely calmed down, Yao Feiran looked at the signal from the capital, stepped forward, knocked the Prince of Ying unconscious, and had her men send him back to the capital.

After the emperor's death, at General Zhou's "persuasion," the ministers elected Prince Chen as the new emperor.

Yao Feiran received the title of Duke and was granted special permission to serve in the court. Because of General Zhou, Yao Shuyan also benefited and received the title of Marquis.

The matter of Yao Feiran entering the court as an official caused a great uproar in the court for a long time. Some ministers even tried to stop the emperor's decision by banging their heads against a pillar. However, the emperor did not change his mind and granted him permission to retire to his hometown. After some back and forth, the matter was settled.

Yao Feiran hadn't expected that Prince Chen would pull such a stunt, making her serve as an official in court. She had been planning to travel around afterwards.

Now Tian Youjun has become a royal merchant, but he has donated all his gray-market businesses to the imperial court. Yao Feiran has adjusted the profit distribution of the remaining businesses, handed over full management rights to him, and given him freedom.

Everything has finally settled down.

Song Yuwei also became a Lady of the Imperial Decree, and her family held two noble titles. In the past, some people laughed at Yao Feiran for not being able to get married for a long time, but now they wished they could marry into her family. Yao Feiran refused all of these offers.

The main problem is that I don't have the energy for romantic moments.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. When Yao Feiran was discussing matters with Prince Chen, she saw his sallow face and asked the Reversal of Fate Bead to make a calculation. Her expression also became complicated.

"you......"

"What's wrong?"

"How has Your Majesty been feeling lately?"

"I'm perfectly fine, and I've even lost a lot of weight. I look as handsome as I did when I was young. It's just that I sometimes have back pain lately. Those quack doctors prescribed me medicine, but it didn't work. Why are you making that face? It's like I have a terminal illness."

Yao Feiran withdrew her pity. She couldn't very well say that he really had a terminal illness, and the medical technology of this era couldn't cure it. Even in her world, unless the spiritual energy was restored and he ascended to another level of life.

Yao Feiran remained silent for a moment before sighing.

"It's okay, just eat whatever you have these days."

"..."

Several months later, the emperor fell ill and suspended court, and Yao Feiran took over the administration of the court.

One day, someone came from the palace. The head eunuch said, "Lord Yao, His Majesty summons you."

Yao Feiran rushed in. By then, the emperor had become skin and bones, lying on the bed breathing barely, his eyes filled with death.

Speaking of which, Prince Chen is over forty years old, which is not young in this dynasty. He has few children, with only three princes in his harem, and the heir apparent has already been named the crown prince.

"You could tell at a glance that the Princess Consort was not long for life after giving birth, so I should have known. You should have also noticed that my health was not good. I thought you were just trying to scare me before."

I can't cure you.

The light in the emperor's eyes suddenly went out.

"My crown prince is young, and he is closest to you. After he ascends the throne, he will need someone to assist him. I hope you can assist the crown prince."

"Your Majesty is not capable enough; you may entrust the task to someone else."

"I believe you."

Why?

"Because you are alone and have no selfish motives."

Yao Feiran: ......

Is this one of the advantages of being single?

"Your Majesty, I obey. You should rest well."

The emperor now basically relies on painkillers to survive. These drugs lack purification and manufacturing technology, contain toxicity, and are essentially a case of drinking poison to quench thirst.

After Yao Feiran left, her expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Didn't you predict that he would survive that near-death experience and that he would make the country even more prosperous after taking the throne? It's only been a few years."

Because Prince Chen became emperor, his fortune was at its peak. After that, Yao Feiran stopped expending energy to predict his fate. As a result, she didn't notice that his fortune had been slowly declining recently, which was probably due to a terminal illness.

The Fate-Defying Pearl said, "Isn't it because you're here to assist him? The Crown Prince will be eight years old when he turns eighteen. During these eight years, you will basically be in charge of the government. When the Crown Prince takes power, he may still need you. Good luck, host."

Yao Feiran: "..."

After the emperor's death, the crown prince successfully ascended the throne, and Yao Feiran became the regent.

The crown prince was only ten years old. He stood directly next to Yao Feiran, his eyes showing some timidity.

Over the years, Yao Feiran would visit him every time she entered the palace and even tutored him. After Granny Xie passed away, the Crown Prince became closer to her.

Before long, a new emperor ascended the throne, and Yao Feiran became the most powerful person in the court, and the Yao family rose in status as well.

The Duke of Anguo's mansion has long since fallen into decline. Now, having squandered all its wealth, it has only retained a title. The entire mansion is now just an empty shell. It is said that Song Haitang's youngest son is going to marry a merchant's daughter as his principal wife.

When Song Yuwei woke up, she was restless. Yao Feiran noticed her distracted state and asked, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Zhou Yan also looked over.

"It's alright. You rarely come back, so have a good talk with your mother."

"Then you can't pressure me to get married, I'm already getting old."

".......good."

Once inside, Song Yuwei rubbed her temples, her expression completely relaxed. Yao Feiran asked curiously, "Mother, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"I've been having dreams every day for the past few days, and I'm very lucid in them."

"What kind of dream?"

"I dreamt that Song Haitang was found when I was eighteen. At that time, my mother was taken by the second prince and married as his concubine. Later, the Marquis's mansion did not recognize Song Haitang back, but only recorded her as an adopted daughter."

Yao Feiran looked surprised. According to her original memory, her mother was actually able to become the empress. Marquis Wen'an did not recognize her back, probably because Song Yuwei was valuable.

"Does Mother think it's a pity?"

"It's no pity. I already have Shuyan and you, which is already a great blessing."

She became empress, but it was only outwardly glamorous. The second prince didn't really love her; he just wanted the crown prince to have a mother. To protect the crown prince, the second prince caused her to lose her first child. The second prince even had to pretend to be deeply in love and pain in public in order to gain the support of Marquis Wen'an.

Fortunately, it was just a dream.

So when Song Haitang returned home in her previous life, she found herself neglected. Everyone only liked Song Yuwei, and she thought it was Song Yuwei's fault. In fact, the Marquis's mansion only recognized the most valuable person.

At her age, Song Haitang may or may not understand, but she only sees Song Yuwei as an enemy. In fact, the people in the Marquis's mansion are all involved.

Yao Feiran comforted Song Yuwei for a while before she felt relieved, probably treating her past life as a nightmare.

Not long after, the old lady of the Marquis of Wen'an passed away. Song Yuwei also went to pay her respects, after all, she had received a favor from the Marquis's family. Song Linyuan was now the Minister of Revenue, and many people came to offer their condolences.

Yao Feiran also saw Song Haitang. She had aged considerably, her hair had turned white, her eldest son had been dismissed from his post, her eldest daughter was having a difficult time in her husband's family, and her youngest son had been forced by her to marry a merchant's daughter, suffering endless ridicule. As a result, he also harbored a lot of resentment towards his mother.

Song Haitang stared blankly at Song Yuwei. Because Yao Feiran was standing next to her, most of the guests showed a fawning expression. Now everyone knew that Yao Feiran, a woman, had actually made the late emperor become the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet despite all the objections, and even obtained a title. Now she was assisting the young emperor and had great power over the court.

Song Yuwei still maintains her serene demeanor, and no one would be so tactless as to bring up her past mistakes; all that remains are words of praise.

"Hehe, I never thought that after going to a place like that, you could still come back, and even after coming back, you would look like this. God is really unfair. It was probably because of this appearance that everyone liked you back then."

Song Yuwei seemed to understand something. Perhaps Song Haitang had also had this dream, which was why she returned eight years early and drove her away.

"Thank you so much. I wouldn't be living such a carefree life now if it weren't for you."

Song Yuwei said this sincerely. Although the first few years were tough, only sweetness remained afterward. Her husband treated her very well, and her daughter and son were gifts from God to her in this lifetime.

Song Haitang thought Song Yuwei was provoking her, and her expression darkened: "Flowers don't bloom for a hundred days. It is already a great treason for a woman to serve as an official. She even wants to influence the court. She will definitely regret it after His Majesty assumes power. Be careful of being punished later."

After those words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

Yao Feiran didn't feel anything in her heart. Song Haitang still had the energy to argue, so it seemed that the suppression was not enough.

"Mother, what are you doing? Don't talk nonsense! Are you trying to kill your son?"

A panicked voice rang out, and Song Haitang's eldest son stepped forward and forcibly dragged her away.

"Lord Yao, my mother has been ill recently, and I apologize for speaking so carelessly."

"It's alright, since you're sick, go see a doctor."

Yao Feiran didn't feel anything. A few days later, she found a mistake and lost her title as Duke of Anguo, becoming a commoner.

As soon as she returned to the mansion, she saw Song Haitang blocking the doorway.

"Lord Yao, I was confused before and offended you with my words. Please forgive us."

"Of course I forgive you. In fact, even if you pointed your finger at me and cursed me, I wouldn't care. I was going to strip your husband of his title anyway." Yao Feiran stepped forward and said, "You think you offended me? No, it's what you did to my mother back then. I'm just going to pay for it little by little."

Song Haitang staggered, a hint of hatred in her eyes: "Don't blame me, it's all her fault. She stole my things. I'm clearly the daughter of a noble family, so why doesn't anyone like me?"

"If one person doesn't like you, maybe that person has a problem. But if a group of people don't like you, you should consider whether it's your own problem. In your past life, it wasn't your mother who put you in that situation, but the Wen'an Marquis's mansion. The person you should hate is your father, but you're powerless, so you can only bully my mother."

Song Haitang's eyes widened, seemingly unwilling to believe Yao Feiran's words, and she revealed an expression of embarrassment and anger.

"Song Yuwei is like a persistent ghost, she's going to harm me again in this lifetime!"

Seeing her seemingly deranged state, Yao Feiran guessed that she was getting old and had a strong obsession. If Song Yuwei had stayed in Qingping Village for the rest of her life, she would have let go of her obsession. However, Song Yuwei had returned to the capital and was doing better and better, which made her even more restless and caused her some mental problems.

Yao Feiran entered the mansion and ignored what she said.

Not long after, the merchant's daughter who was supposed to marry into the family felt there was no profit to be made and broke off the engagement to marry someone else. In any case, since the family had been rejected by Yao Feiran and had become an ordinary family, they were not afraid of offending her at all.

Originally hoping to alleviate their family's financial difficulties by relying on the other party, they were now forced to sell their property. In just a few years, the original Anguo Duke's family left the capital and settled in a small county town. With a large family, they often quarreled. Song Haitang passed away a few years later.

When the emperor turned eighteen, Yao Feiran returned power and left, embarking directly on a ship to sea. When he returned in his later years, he brought back many novel things and a lot of high-yield crops.

He returned to the capital and stayed there for a few years before passing away.

Yao Feiran opened her eyes and found herself back in her original world.

She contacted Wang Hong, accepted a task, quickly completed it, and returned to her room to continue cultivating. She clearly felt that her cultivation speed had slowed down, but as energy continued to cleanse her soul, this sluggish feeling gradually disappeared.

Her talent has become even more remarkable.

Wang Hong rushed over at this moment: "Now many places have secret realms appearing. It's like a different space suddenly appears. Some people have eaten strange fruits and directly broken through to the second level. Others have found powerful attack techniques and cultivation methods that can increase cultivation speed."

Are you going too?

"We can't abandon our posts, but the government will probably send people in."

"We'll talk about that later."

Current cultivation methods are based on ordinary basic techniques, and the circulation and compression of vital energy are very crude. If we had the techniques found in the secret realm, the cultivation speed would be greatly enhanced, and humanity would have more competitiveness.

Reversal of Fate Pearl: "Now I know why this world suddenly regained its spiritual energy. It's probably because the fragments of the Great World merged with it. Those suddenly appearing secret realms should be the original Great World, otherwise they couldn't have appeared out of thin air."

"Should I also go explore the secret realm?"

"You'd better stay put. If you die, I'll have to rebuild your body. If your soul is damaged, it will take even more energy. If you die in other small worlds, at least you can escape back to this world, and it's not as dangerous."

"understood."

Yao Feiran herself wasn't a particularly adventurous person, and she only mentioned it unintentionally.

"Let's go to the next world."

Yao Feiran opened her eyes, surrounded by the hustle and bustle of traffic.

This time, it should be the ordinary modern world.

She was squatting by the bridge when a man walked over, a black and white spirit perched on his shoulder.

Yao Feiran: "..."

"Hey girl, what are you staring at me for?"
