The Villain Dies from Talking Too Much

Timid and cowardly Huo Quan accidentally transmigrated into the body of the treacherous minister Nie Zao. To survive, he kept the lesson of Nie Zao's death firmly in mind: villains die because they talk too much. So Huo Quan decided not to speak. He'd stick to not speaking. He simply wouldn't speak. The officials discovered that Lord Nie, the sharp-tongued censor, had somehow become mute. Wow! (This novel goes premium tomorrow. The site just swallowed my blurb, so I'm posting it again.) The Throne I Dreamed of After Transmigrating Doesn't Seem So Great Anymore Thanks for asking. I'm the Crown Prince's eldest son, and I've coveted the throne for years. Unfortunately, my imperial grandfather is hale and hearty, with no plans to abdicate! After much deliberation, I decided to lead troops and force the old emperor to step down. Who knew that on the eve of my coup, lightning would strike me, and by a twist of fate, I'd transmigrate into the old emperor's body! I got the throne I'd dreamed of without having to deploy a single soldier. Xie Yao was so happy he cried tears of joy. Punish corrupt officials, abolish forced labor, establish the imperial examinations, expand the borders. Just as he was ready to make his mark and become a great emperor remembered for all time, the civil and military officials came to see him in tears. "Your Majesty, there are many state affairs to attend to these days. We've heard that you're unwell. Please allow the Crown Prince to assist with the government." Xie Yao: "..." He could eat and drink just fine. There was absolutely nothing wrong with his health! "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is kind and benevolent, and treats worthy men with respect. He can surely help ease Your Majesty's burden!" Xie Yao: "..." He could manage on his own. Wait, Xie Yao sensed something was amiss. "Are you all trying to stage a coup?" The men of the royal family lived long lives. He'd finally gotten the throne he'd yearned for. How could he just hand it over? Not even to his own father! Still, his father was a man of few desires who loved flowers more than being emperor. If he knew the officials were doing this, he would surely refuse in no uncertain terms. Xie Yao smugly waved his hand. "Invite the Crown Prince to the palace to discuss this." Let the officials hear the Crown Prince's answer with their own ears, then they'll give up! "Crown Prince, the officials have proposed that you come to the palace to assist me with state affairs. What do you think?" Crown Prince Xie Shao: "Your son is willing to relieve Father Emperor of his burdens!" Xie Yao: "..." Damn it, his father was the most deeply hidden rebel of them all! When she opened her eyes again, an electronic voice rang out in her mind: "Quick transmigration world. [The Daughter of a Green Tea Bitch] has been bound. The story begins now." Zhang Xiaoxiao: "..." Theme: Even if you're a villain, you must have your own limits when it comes to the greater good of your people.
