Yet Again, I Have to Enter the Palace in the Middle of the Night!

Ji Xian transmigrated to ancient times, but there was a big problem!

First: He had become a notorious traitor in the Kingdom of Yanyun.

Second: He had transmigrated into a living body, sharing it with the traitor. He could only use the body at night.

System: "There was a bit of a bug. Your original body will arrive later."

Ji Xian: :-)

The traitor secretly serves King Liang and plans to rebel, but the emperor has already noticed his frequent moves. If he makes another move, he'll be killed.

The traitor drinks and makes merry with King Liang.

The emperor prepares to kill him.

Ji Xian rushes to the palace in the middle of the night: "I am loyal to Your Majesty, ready to die for you! I got close to King Liang to spy on him. Please see the truth, Your Majesty!"

The traitor recruits soldiers and trains death squads.

The emperor wants to kill him again.

Ji Xian rushes to the palace in the middle of the night: "These troops are being trained for you, Your Majesty. When the time comes, they'll switch sides and catch King Liang completely off guard."

The traitor plants spies in the emperor's bedchamber.

The emperor wants to kill him yet again.

Ji Xian rushes to the palace in the middle of the night: "They may look like spies, but they're actually bodyguards. They're there for Your Majesty's safety and can protect you at all times."

The emperor, Helian Kuang, believed his nonsense.

On the day of the rebellion, Helian Kuang let his guard down around the traitor and took a sword thrust from him. Furious, he cried, "How could you bring yourself to hurt me?!"

The traitor: "Why does that sound so weird..."

The imperial city fell, and Helian Kuang was surrounded. He fought his way out and escaped by the skin of his teeth, but before long he returned with a vengeance and reclaimed the throne in a lightning-fast campaign.

The first thing he did was have the traitor bound and flogged until his skin split, then torture him mercilessly day after day.

Every time, the traitor would howl, "I swear I only recognize King Liang as my wise ruler! How could I have rushed to the palace in the middle of the night to pretend to be loyal and offer advice? Unless a ghost possessed me!"

Helian Kuang: "I see."

Helian Kuang: "Then find a way to get that ghost back here and kill it!"

Ji Xian, who had long since returned to his own body: Achoo!

System: "The bug has been fixed. Your soul and body are reunited. The mission is starting. You must return to the emperor's side and help him unify the realm."

Ji Xian: "…"
