Becoming the Crown Prince to the Reborn Emperor Wu of Han

Liu Che knew that Crown Prince Liu Ju had been forced into rebellion, but even after being reborn, he couldn't help being suspicious. So he had his trusted aides keep a close watch on the three-year-old Liu Ju, who had rebelled in his previous life.

Liu Che: "What did Liu Ju do today?"

Trusted aide: "The First Prince secretly crawled out of the palace through a dog hole today."

Liu Che, on guard: "Has he stationed private troops outside the palace?"

Trusted aide: "He stockpiled clay figurines outside the palace, and bought sixty of them."

Liu Che, even more on guard: "Are there secret messages hidden in the figurines?"

Trusted aide: "...The figurines have candy pills from Young Master Huo hidden inside. The First Prince was afraid the Empress would find them and beat him, so he hid the candy in the figurines. Now he can't get it back out, and he's crying his eyes out."

Liu Che didn't believe Liu Ju could be so well-behaved. He pointed to a history book about Hu Hai's rebellion to test him. Three-year-old Liu Ju looked at the book and didn't dare say a word.

Liu Che sneered. "I've finally caught you." The boy really had been disloyal to him from the start.

Liu Ju was so frightened that his eyes filled with tears. "Father, I can't read."

Liu Che questioned him. "Haven't you already started your lessons?"

Liu Ju trembled. "Mother said my brain got lost when I was born."

Liu Che didn't believe him. A few days later, he tested him again. "Can you read yet?"

Liu Ju continued trembling. "Mother fed my brain to the dogs."

"..." A few days later, Liu Che tested him again. "Can you read yet?"

Liu Ju was still trembling. "My cousin Huo Qubing ate my brain, and Uncle Wei Qing had three big bowls of it."

"..."

Fine. Liu Che no longer worried that Liu Ju would rebel. Now he was worried that his son really was the biggest fool in all history!

Liu Ju was a little afraid of his father. His father didn't like to smile, was too cold to approach, and often watched him study. Luckily, his father was very busy and didn't visit him often. But ever since his father's temper flared at his foolish brain, he wanted to take him away and teach him himself.

Liu Ju asked his mother for help, and she personally packed him up and sent him to his father's bedchamber.

Liu Ju asked his cousin Huo Qubing for help, and his cousin personally made a ruler and gave it to his father.

Liu Ju asked his uncle Wei Qing for help, and his uncle sent his father a whole stack of beginner textbooks from the frontier.

Please add The Daily Life of the Reborn Ming Crown Prince to your reading list:

Four-year-old Zhu Zairui was just named crown prince by the Jiajing Emperor the day before. When he wakes up, he finds himself twenty years in the future.

His father, who had always been cold toward him, suddenly takes him under his wing. Zhu Zairui doesn't understand why, but he happily carries his toys into the Jiajing Emperor's bedchamber.

Crown Prince Zhuangjing, Zhu Zairui, was exceptionally bright. He was named crown prince at four and suddenly died of illness at fourteen. Ten years after his death, he reappears in the world in the body of a four-year-old.

At this time, Yan Song is all-powerful and wants to make Prince Jing the crown prince.

Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and others are lying low and raising Prince Yu, hoping to bring Yan Song down.

Just as Prince Jing and Prince Yu are competing for the throne and the court is on edge, the Jiajing Emperor suddenly announces that the Ming already has a crown prince.

Zhu Zairui peeks out. "Does everyone still remember me?"

Yan Song, whom Zhu Zairui once disliked: "?" Is this cheating?

Xu Jie, who used to be Zhu Zairui's teacher: "Well, would you look at that!" Is this a free win?

Zhang Juzheng, a disciple of Xu Jie: "Uh..." You can win like this?

Prince Yu, 23, stares blankly at the four-year-old boy in front of him. "Hello, Second Brother."

Zhu Zairui pats his head. "Good boy."

Prince Jing, 22, stammers at the four-year-old boy in front of him. "Hello, Second Brother."

Zhu Zairui knocks him on the head. "Bad boy."
