I Ascended the Throne and Became Emperor: The Traitorous Officials' Inner Thoughts Were Overheard by Me

The emperor died of illness and passed the throne to the most useless of his sons, the Fourth Prince, Qin Yu.

Princes, gather your troops and prepare to rebel!

At that moment, the Imperial Loyalty System activated.

Qin Yu could not only see everyone's loyalty, but also hear the inner thoughts of treacherous ministers!

"Your Majesty is wise. The treasury has been running a deficit for a long time, and now we can't even pay the salaries."

Yeah, right. My Second Imperial Brother emptied the treasury. He buried it beneath Wolong Manor.

"I am utterly loyal and willing to surrender my military command."

What are you thinking? My troops will be at your gates tonight. Just wait to abdicate.

"I recommend a woman with the body of a phoenix. If she is made empress, she will surely be the mother of all under heaven."

Should I tell you she's a fox spirit?

Fox Spirit: "Your Majesty, why are you preparing a pot?"

Qin Yu: "I heard that the meat of a thousand-year-old fox spirit can greatly increase one's cultivation. I want to test if it's true."

Fox Spirit: "Holy crap!"
