Zhou Liangliang

After being reincarnated as the youngest son of Emperor Wu of Zhou, Zhao Yao was not favored much. In order to survive the bloody power struggle for the throne, he had to bide his time. Finally, he grew up and was granted a title of nobility, only to be exiled to the distant region of Lingnan by his dear father.

It was said that Lingnan was incredibly poor, but Zhao Yao was not afraid. He focused on infrastructure and production. Under Zhao Yao's management, Lingnan transformed from a place of exile into a prosperous land.

Just when Zhao Yao was happily living his carefree life in Lingnan, the ministers traveled a thousand miles to beg him to ascend the throne.

Zhao Yao was baffled. Had these ministers lost their minds?

Upon seeing this, the ministers exclaimed in their hearts: The Xun family and the Yuan family are also involved in the matters over in Yangzhou?!


The emperor was not surprised at all by the three who stepped forward.


The ministers glanced at Duke Zhen and Marquis Xuanping, speculating in their hearts: Could the Xie family and the Yu family be involved as well?


Duke Zhen remained calm as he knelt on the ground, showing not the slightest sign of guilt or panic. However, Marquis Xuanping seemed somewhat uneasy. When those from Yangzhou approached him for cooperation, he almost agreed. Fortunately, he was wise and went to seek Noble Princess Consort Rong's advice.
