I play the role of Jiajing in Zongwu: What crime have I committed?

Book Author: Crow Overturns the Table

Book Synopsis: Zhu Houcong transmigrates into a world composed of "Nirvana in Fire," "Joy of Life," "Qin's Moon," and "Lotus Tower." He starts as the emperor of the Great Liang Dynasty, but the system mistakenly believes that he has successfully replaced the Jiajing Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. As long as Zhu Houcong plays the role of Jiajing, he can obtain an elixir of immortality. In the end, as long as he leads the country to prosperity and unifies the world, he can even attain immortality.

Many years later, Zhu Houcong unified the world and sneered at Mei Changsu, who was kneeling at the altar: "What a unicorn talent! He is nothing but a dog I keep by my side."

Chapter 1: Playing the Jiajing Emperor in Nirvana in Fire?

In the imperial palace of Jinling, Daliang.

"Just now, we only bestowed two more royal pearls upon Jing Huan, but the Yue family and the Crown Prince looked quite displeased!"

On the palace road, Emperor Liang walked with his hands behind his back, the hem of his golden dragon robe swaying slightly with each step, muttering to himself.

The chief eunuch Gao Zhan bowed and followed half a step behind.

Suddenly, a golden light streaked across the sky like a meteor, shooting straight into Emperor Liang's brow with lightning speed.

Emperor Liang's body stiffened abruptly, and he stood upright in place, even his robes ceasing to sway.

"His Majesty?"

Gao Zhan called out cautiously, but when the emperor did not respond, he assumed that the emperor was thinking about something.

He skillfully took a half step back, bowed and stood still, even his breathing became soft.

His decades of experience serving monarchs told him that the wisest choice at this time was to remain silent.

But what he didn't know was that at this moment, within Emperor Liang's spiritual platform, a decadent young man named Zhu Houcong from China, who had nothing to show for his life, had completely shattered Emperor Liang's soul.

Not only did it usurp the throne, but it also absorbed all of Emperor Liang's soul fragments.

The main beam?

Emperor Jing?

Nirvana in Fire?

When a flood of memories rushed into Zhu Houcong's consciousness, he was completely dumbfounded.

Wasn't I supposed to travel back in time to the Ming Dynasty and play the Jiajing Emperor? How did I end up in a TV series?

Zhu Houcong recalled that his computer screen suddenly went black while he was watching the TV series "Da Ming Dynasty 1566".

Then a passage of text in white on a black background appeared on the screen.

[Emperor Jiajing, Zhu Houcong, fell from his horse on his way to the throne and became a vegetable. To avoid historical confusion, we cordially invite you to play the role of Zhu Houcong. We guarantee that history will not deviate from the original. Are you willing to accept?]

When he thought it was a virus and chose to power off and restart, another line of text appeared on the screen.

By playing the role of Emperor Jiajing, you will have a chance to obtain an elixir of immortality and a certain probability of becoming an immortal.

Zhu Houcong, whose index finger had already touched the power button, became interested when he saw the words "become an immortal".

He then withdrew his finger.

Become an immortal?

Is it really that mysterious?

A strong sense of curiosity welled up within him, and once the idea took hold, it spread like wildfire.

So, almost as if possessed, I dragged the mouse and clicked on the word "Accept".

He completely forgot about viruses.

In any case, his computer contained no valuable data other than those hundreds of adult films.

The next second, Zhu Houcong's vision went black, and he lost consciousness.

When I regained consciousness, I found that I had an unfamiliar memory in my mind.

However, it is not the memory of Zhu Houcong of the Ming Dynasty, but the memory of the Liang Dynasty emperor in the drama "Nirvana in Fire".

He had unexpectedly transmigrated into a martial arts world comprised of four TV series: "Nirvana in Fire," "Joy of Life," "The Legend of Qin," and "Lotus Tower."

This is too unreliable!

What kind of god is this? He's done a terrible job.

If you let me transmigrate into the body of the fourteen-year-old Jiajing Emperor, I'd feel better.

As a result, you not only dragged me into the female-oriented TV series "Nirvana in Fire," but also turned me into a decrepit old man.

Zhu Houcong raised his hands, looking at his aged skin, feeling like crying but having no tears.

Old Zhu is a well-known handsome young man in the surrounding area.

Now he's become an old man who urinates for at least five minutes, and can even wet his shoes if he's in a good mood.

Just as Zhu Houcong was cursing in his heart, another message appeared in his mind.

[Successfully traveled back to the Ming Dynasty, triggering a reward system. Lucky winners, strive to play the role of Emperor Jiajing, obtain the elixir of immortality, and attain immortality!]

???

Don't you want to see what you're saying?

Is this still the Ming Dynasty?

Zhu Houcong lost all his strength in an instant. This idiot still thought he was in the Ming Dynasty!

Emperor Jiajing reigned for forty-five years, managing to outmaneuver his ministers.

However, the Liang emperor in Nirvana in Fire was completely outmaneuvered by Mei Changsu, a man dressed in plain clothes.

In the end, he even knelt down before Mei Changsu.

To be an emperor and end up like this is utterly pathetic.

If I were to kneel before Mei Changsu, my role as Jiajing would likely be a complete failure!

Thinking of this, Zhu Houcong immediately put himself in the role of the emperor, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Rather than waiting for this so-called genius to come to the capital and stir up trouble, thus preventing me from becoming an immortal.

I'd rather kill you first.

The next second, another piece of information flooded into my mind.

[The host must not take the initiative to kill or order the killing of the world's protagonist, otherwise it will attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao and result in divine punishment and death.]

I'm going to work early!

You're disgusting your dad!

Upon seeing this, Zhu Houcong cursed inwardly.

In other words, he could only watch as Mei Changsu plotted to help the prince ascend the throne, and he couldn't even kill him!

He wanted to be like other transmigrators who kill the protagonist as soon as they arrive, acting all cool and arrogant. Now he's doomed!

Perhaps the system automatically determined that Hai Rui was the protagonist of the story.

But Zhu Houcong dared not gamble. He had at least transmigrated into the body of an emperor. Was he really going to risk his life against a peasant?

His thoughts raced, and his expression shifted between light and dark.

At that moment, he suddenly felt a surge of blood and qi, as if a huge boulder was pressing on his chest, and his breathing became heavy and rapid.

"Cough cough cough!"

A sudden, heart-wrenching cough erupted as Zhu Houcong hunched over, his withered fingers gripping the front of his dragon robe tightly.

It felt as if all my internal organs were about to be coughed up.

"His Majesty!"

Gao Zhan's expression changed drastically. He rushed forward in three steps and carefully patted Zhu Houcong's back with his wrinkled hands.

The old eunuch's hands trembled slightly, and his voice carried an undisguised panic.

"Quickly summon the imperial physician! Your Majesty, please take good care of your health!"

The eunuch behind him was already ashen-faced with fright. He hurriedly brought over a cup of warm tea, which clattered in his trembling hands.

Zhu Houcong reluctantly accepted the teacup, but due to his severe coughing, most of the tea spilled onto his dragon robe.

"Slow down, Your Majesty, slow down..."

Gao Zhan took the teacup and carefully fed it to Zhu Houcong's lips.

The warm tea slid down his throat, and Zhu Houcong gradually stopped coughing.

But it still felt like there was a wad of cotton stuffed in my chest, and every breath brought a slight pain.

"I...I'm fine..."

Zhu Houcong said, panting heavily, his voice hoarse beyond belief.

This body is far too old.

Zhu Houcong smiled bitterly to himself; he had only experienced a slight emotional fluctuation, yet he was coughing so violently.

It's as if the soil has reached up to his eyebrows.

It seems I must start playing the role of Jiajing Emperor as soon as possible and see if I can obtain the elixir of immortality.

Otherwise, even if I hadn't been tricked by Mei Changsu, I probably wouldn't have lasted much longer!

Without hesitation, Zhu Houcong began his acting career with a poem.

"Practice until your body resembles a crane, and you can read two volumes of scriptures beneath a thousand pine trees."

"I came to ask the question, but there was nothing more to say; the clouds are in the blue sky, and the water is in the bottle."

He finished reciting the poem softly and continued.

"I shall begin my cultivation!"

[Ding! Playing the role of Jiajing +1, obtained the Yellow Emperor's Golden Elixir]

Chapter 2 The First Thing He Did After Becoming Emperor: Favoring His Concubine

[The Yellow Emperor's Golden Elixir: The Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven in broad daylight after having relations with three thousand women. This elixir combines the Yellow Emperor's dual cultivation method. After consuming this elixir, one can cultivate both yin and yang, thereby strengthening the body, consolidating the foundation, cleansing the marrow and tendons, prolonging life, and becoming increasingly powerful.]

As Zhu Houcong silently recited the profound description of the Yellow Emperor's Golden Elixir, a surge of excitement welled up in his heart, and even his breathing became rapid.

His eyes suddenly gleamed.

I am destined to have this Yellow Emperor's Golden Elixir!

By this point in time, Emperor Liang had not set foot in the inner palace for several years, nor had he taken any new concubines.

It wasn't that he was indifferent to worldly desires, but rather that he was getting older and his energy was not what it used to be.

Even when the urge arises, it's always beyond my capabilities.

But now, the appearance of the Yellow Emperor's Golden Elixir has given Zhu Houcong a glimmer of hope.

"By harmonizing yin and yang through the dual cultivation method, wouldn't I be able to regain my former glory?"

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, his eyes gleaming.

He could almost see himself surrounded by three thousand beauties in his harem, indulging in nightly revelry, full of vigor and vitality, enjoying the ultimate bliss.

what?

Emperors cannot be obsessed with women?

If you don't get close to women, what kind of emperor are you?

Zhu Houcong immediately made up his mind that once he had recovered his health, he would take ten concubines first.

Then, with a thought, a golden pill the size of a dragon's eye appeared out of thin air in his palm.

The pill was entirely reddish-gold, emanating a misty aura, with mysterious cloud patterns flowing across its surface.
