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

The emperor rubbed his forehead. He also felt that the second prince was not very capable and had only intended to use him to train the fourth prince. Now, the fourth prince was completely useless.

He suddenly started coughing up blood violently.

Yao Feiran took his pulse and said, "You don't have much time left."

"The throne was seized by the Empress Dowager in the first place, and it should have been returned long ago."

"That can't be too many. You're quite responsible. The throne should belong to the most capable person."

The emperor sighed: "You learned these skills from the Sanglan clan, didn't you?"

"yes."

"The art of Gu worms is too bizarre. If it were to fall into the wrong hands, perhaps one of the emperors would repeat my fate."

"You're about to die, why are you still worrying so much? People like me are extremely rare. If someone like me appears again, it means the nation's fate is sealed, and Heaven is going to destroy the country."

The emperor, perhaps angered, finally fell silent.

Everyone was secretly saying that the Second Prince's hand had been broken by Liu Songyan, and that Liu Songyan was ruthless. Yao Feiran didn't care about these rumors, but now Liu Songyan's reputation had become so bad that it could stop a baby from crying.

Later, Yao Feiran showed Liu Shu several men, and finally found one that satisfied both parties. It was Liao Jiangsheng, the second son of a fifth-rank official. It seems that he wanted to curry favor with Liu Songyan, so he even sent his own son over.

Liao Jiangsheng passed the imperial examination at a young age and became a Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial-level imperial examinations). However, his parents sent him to become a live-in son-in-law, which nearly broke him down. He kept his head down and was listless.

Yao Feiran said, "If you're willing to come over, don't look like you're about to die. My daughter is already very outstanding. If you're not satisfied, then go back."

Liao Jiangsheng glanced at Liu Shu. The two had talked for a while earlier. She was intelligent, insightful, and beautiful. He had always wanted to find an educated woman so that the couple could understand each other. But now it was not quite what he had imagined.

"Lord Liu, I am naturally willing."

"Since you're willing, don't think about your parents anymore. Since they've given you up and you'll become the Liu family's son-in-law in the future, all they need to do is be filial to your wife."

"Yes."

Yao Feiran glanced at Liao Jiangsheng, never expecting that he and Liu Shu would be so loving in the future. Even if he became an official, it wouldn't affect his love for his wife; they remained the same.

This kind of person is a breath of fresh air.

She originally wanted to suppress him, but then she thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to let him continue taking the imperial examinations. Since he was her son-in-law, he had to be more outstanding.

However, we can try having Liu Shu raise Gu. There's a 90% chance the fate line will be guaranteed, but we can't guarantee against some kind of accident, especially since she can disrupt the fate line. The closer someone is to her, the higher the chance their fate will change.

Liao Jiangsheng, upon hearing Yao Feiran's words, asked, "I...can I? Isn't it against the law?"

"Just change it. It's not like you've done anything immoral. It's just that you'll be looked down upon a lot in the future."

Liao Jiangsheng chuckled: "It's alright. If you care too much about your reputation, you won't be able to do good things. As long as you don't do anything immoral, what's there to be afraid of?"

Those old shareholders probably want to bang their heads against the pillars again. Now the pillars in the main hall are all covered with a thick layer of sponge. They want to die somewhere else.

The following year passed, and the emperor's death was imminent. Yao Feiran went to see him, and he was in a good mood: "It seems that the three years you calculated were inaccurate."

"A person's destiny can be changed, although it may not reach the point where man can conquer nature, you are always resisting your destiny."

He heard that he only had three years to live, so he recklessly destroyed his body. While most emperors cherished their lives, he was full of rebellious spirit.

"Anyway, I've been a puppet controlled all my life, living any longer would be torture."

Hearing this, Yao Feiran felt a little guilty.

"That's not how you should put it. Pets are also controlled by people. I think they live quite happily. They have food and lodging provided, a good living environment, and so many servants to pamper them."

"You treat me like a pet!"

Yao Feiran: "No."

The emperor was panting heavily, and it took him a long time to calm down.

"You cannot kill my mother."

"Your mother's life can be spared, but you must know that we made a promise back then, and you need to keep your commitment."

The emperor said in a deep voice, "I know."

"Alas, abuse breeds loyalty. Look at how your mother treats you, and you still want her to live."

"Perhaps."

If Mother lives a little longer, we won't run into each other on the road to the underworld.

In the past few days, Yao Feiran noticed the princes' counterattack and protected the Liu family and the Duke's mansion tightly, instructing them not to go out.

Upon hearing Yao Feiran say that the emperor was about to die, they immediately promised not to go out.

A few days later, the fourth prince was made crown prince, and Yan Yueyi was made crown princess.

That night, the palace was brightly lit, and the second prince, in league with the third prince, plotted to seize power.

They blasted open the door to the emperor's bedroom and found the emperor, who was so thin he was practically skin and bones, sitting there.

The second prince's expression changed slightly: "Father, why aren't you asleep so late?"

"I am waiting for you."

Third Prince: "You knew we'd be coming?"

"Do you think I don't know you're secretly raising an army? You're too naive to think you can seize power with just this few troops!"

"Hmph, Father, you are too incompetent. Liu Songyan now holds absolute power in the court, and the court has long become his personal fiefdom. What difference is there between you and a puppet now?"

The emperor retorted sarcastically, "If you were me, you'd probably be even worse than me."

The third prince sneered, "What kind of father is he? Our father could have become emperor back then. If it weren't for the Empress Dowager's poisoning, this world would have been ours."

The two rushed forward. The second prince said, "Hurry up and issue an edict to depose the crown prince and install the third brother as emperor. Then I will leave you a whole corpse."

The emperor's eyes were indifferent: "Look behind you."

Just as the Third Prince was about to say something, he suddenly felt a pain in his back and his body uncontrollably slammed into the wall.

The second prince exclaimed in surprise, "Who is it—"

Both of them were kicked against the wall.

Yao Feiran emerged from the shadows, and the emperor said in a deep voice, "The Second Prince and the Third Prince have plotted to seize power and usurp the throne. Their crimes are unforgivable. They are to be imprisoned immediately and await further punishment."

Since the Second Prince's hand was crippled, he has been fully supporting the Third Prince's ascension to the throne. Yao Feiran had long known about their secret military training, and several of their leaders had been bewitched, making them easy to betray the Third Prince.

Before his death, the emperor issued an edict of self-reproach.

He exposed all of Song Yuheng's deeds to the public, including the massacre of the Yan family, the poisoning of his stepmother, the late empress, the imperial concubine, and the former eldest and second princes.

He then said that as a son, he was willing to bear all the sins for his mother.

Now everyone in the world knows that Song Yuheng was a concubine's son and a foot-washing maid. All the things she was afraid of are now openly written in the history books for the world to judge.

In fact, the common people didn't care much about the Empress Dowager's previous status. Compared to the many people she harmed, it was nothing.

But for Song Yuheng, it was a devastating blow. She was used to being high and mighty, and her most cherished thing in her life was her status.
