After Completing the Mission to Aid a Wise Ruler

Cheng Qingye found a new role-playing game on his phone called The Emperor's Advisor Plan.

The game started on hell mode. He had to help the seventh prince, who had no outstanding traits, ascend to the throne. His lord had no territory, no favor from the emperor, and no powerful maternal relatives. Since his mother's family had once been too powerful, they had all been executed, leaving him reduced to chewing tree bark in the cold palace.

The little beggar was gaunt and malnourished. Cheng Qingye's compassion stirred, and he asked customer service, "Can I switch to helping the third prince instead?"

The third prince was refined and gracious, and treated his subordinates well. He truly had the bearing of a wise ruler.

Most importantly, he had land, food, and people. He was a strong contender for the throne.

[Dear player, helping someone in their hour of need is better than adding flowers to a brocade.]

[Also, you are not a VIP member.]

Cheng Qingye: "..." What a joke.

Would he really pay money for a man?

As the third prince's favored confidant, Cheng Qingye carried on a secret affair with the little beggar, finding food for him, teaching him how to conduct himself, seeking out teachers for him, and doing everything he could to max out his stats.

Heaven rewards those who persevere.

The little beggar was ambitious and brilliant. He subdued the barbarians, secured the northern frontier, ascended the throne, and reached a hundred percent favorability.

Cheng Qingye felt there was nothing left to do. He uninstalled the game, deleted his account, and went off to spend money dressing up his pretty-girl characters.

When he opened his eyes again, he was in a majestic imperial city. The tyrant was away on a western campaign, and the atmosphere in the city was tense.

It was now the tenth year of the Jiaxu reign.

He had arrived in the game world. The wise ruler whose name would go down in history had become a tyrant, already firmly seated on the throne. The power struggles of years past were now distant memories, while the court was ruled by an iron fist and wars raged year after year.

His Anping Marquis estate had been reduced to scorched earth.

And the seventh prince he remembered as a gifted and charming boy with two dimples when he smiled had gone mad.
