The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 548 - 478: Do You Know How Tiring It Is to Be Emperor?

Chapter 548: Chapter 478: Do You Know How Tiring It Is to Be Emperor?

"Angry?"

"Why should I be angry?"

The Eldest Princess blinked, finding Wei Dingjiang’s question puzzling.

"Daxia is about to be completely gone!"

Wei Dingjiang couldn’t believe his wife couldn’t see through Wei Shifeng and the others’ actions, which seemed to be reinstating Daxia but were essentially planning to gradually erode it, sidelining Emperor Xia, and turning Daxia into the Wei Family’s domain.

"What does Daxia’s fate have to do with me?"

Upon hearing Wei Dingjiang’s words, the Eldest Princess understood why he asked that, feeling both warmth and frustration that her husband really didn’t understand women.

As the saying goes, marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.

She married Wei Dingjiang, so she was now part of the Wei Family, and after a hundred years, she would be buried in the Wei Family’s ancestral tomb.

Daxia’s fate?

The Tang Royal Family’s fate?

These, after all, had little to do with her.

Of course, under normal circumstances, she would wish for Daxia to last forever and for the Tang Royal Family to prosper even more. But after her mother, the Empress Dowager, did such things against the Wei Family, she understood that from the moment she married Wei Dingjiang, she had become a disposable pawn in her mother’s eyes.

Motherly kindness, filial piety!

Without motherly kindness, how can there be filial piety?

If Emperor Xia could stand by her side and uphold justice, then the Eldest Princess might still hold some hope for the Tang Royal Family and Daxia’s lands and institutions.

Unfortunately, Emperor Xia did not uphold justice.

Following a series of events, including the Empress Dowager’s suicide, Emperor Xia’s departure, Daxia’s downfall, and the deaths of the Fourth Prince and Prince Yi, the Eldest Princess naturally felt some discomfort.

But this discomfort was merely human nature.

Her mood soured for a while, but life had to go on, and the Eldest Princess couldn’t live in discomfort forever.

On the contrary, her sour mood made Wei Dingjiang overthink things.

Realizing Wei Dingjiang’s concerns, the Eldest Princess had to explain.

To prevent Wei Dingjiang from excessively analyzing her explanation, the Eldest Princess sternly expressed her attitude.

"So, do you understand now?"

"Won’t overthink anymore?"

The Eldest Princess looked sternly at Wei Dingjiang.

Seeing his wife’s demeanor, Wei Dingjiang instinctively thought she was just saying this to reassure him.

"Wei Dingjiang!"

"I’m talking to you; are you overthinking again?"

The Eldest Princess, seeing Wei Dingjiang’s expression, instantly realized that her lengthy speech did not convince her husband.

"Stupid man!"

"Must you annoy me?"

The Eldest Princess, already unsettled by these chaotic matters and having finally decided not to dwell on them, found Wei Dingjiang confronting her now.

Truly, as the saying goes, "Uncles can bear it, but aunties cannot."

"Dad, look, you’ve upset Mom again!"

Wei Wushang, seeing his mother angry and his father oblivious to his mistake, hurried to smooth things over, hoping to quell this senseless quarrel.

However, it was no use!

The Eldest Princess was infuriated and could not let Wei Wushang easily resolve the matter.

"Go away, adults’ issues are none of a child’s concern!"

"Today, I must properly discuss this with your father!"

"For so many years, he’s been busy, busy, busy, and can’t even distinguish when I’m being honest and when I’m not!"

Does the Eldest Princess hold a grudge against Wei Dingjiang?

The answer is naturally yes.

All these years, Wei Dingjiang has been occupied with his family’s and the court’s affairs, seldom having time for the Eldest Princess. Although Wei Dingjiang treats the Eldest Princess well, this kindness, due to lack of companionship, naturally loses much of its value.

This is why the Eldest Princess continually tolerates Wei Dingjiang. Had she been more hot-tempered, she might have clashed with Wei Dingjiang long ago.

Perhaps the Empress Dowager married her to Wei Dingjiang with the intent of stirring conflict.

"Wife, I’m wrong!"

Facing the furious Eldest Princess, Wei Dingjiang’s intelligence returned, and he promptly admitted his mistake.

Despite often being straightforward, Wei Dingjiang knew that when his wife is truly angry, she’s genuinely upset, even unable to tolerate it anymore.

In other words, his wife wasn’t lying to reassure him; she spoke sincerely.

He had blundered greatly!

Wei Dingjiang clearly knew how to appease his furious wife.

Seeing the situation, Wei Wushang knew he should make a quick exit.

Seizing the moment when his parents weren’t focused on him, he left decisively.

...

Wei Wushang slipped away, swiftly heading to find Yuan Bao, inviting her to leave together.

In marital life, arguments may occur at bedtime, but reconciliation happens by morning.

Though Wei Wushang hadn’t tasted pork, he had seen pigs run. As for the ways of marriage, he had often heard some people around him discuss it, and now, remaining was only awkward.

So, they decided to leave!

Yuan Bao and Wei Wushang were similar.

Being a transmigrator and an experienced internet user, Yuan Bao was also a theorist.

The two of them left!

Once Wei Dingjiang finally calmed the Eldest Princess and sent someone to find the young couple to speak, he was informed that Wei Wushang and Yuan Bao were not around. The clever Eldest Princess immediately guessed the reason.

Thus, Wei Dingjiang received another bout of punches.

Of course, these little punches on the chest were just tickles to Wei Dingjiang.

Meanwhile, Wei Wushang and Yuan Bao didn’t wander aimlessly; instead, they went directly to Yuan Yindi and Ruan Wan’s place.

As soon as Yuan Bao explained her intentions, Yuan Yindi jumped up.

"Jiaojiao, I’ve treated you well, haven’t I? Why are you setting me up like this?"

Becoming Emperor?

Yuan Yindi had never entertained such thoughts.

"Uncle, the thing is, I think you might not have the option to refuse being Emperor!"

Yuan Bao knew she wasn’t acting fairly, but she was left with no choice.

To improve her power, she needed Incense Fire Wishing Power.

And to gain Incense Fire Wishing Power, she required a suitable identity to benefit the people.

"Don’t you want to do something for the common people?"

"I remember you once had great ambitions!"

To stir her uncle’s enthusiasm, Yuan Bao could only resort to persuading him.

Yuan Yindi rolled his eyes and said, "Jiaojiao, I want to do something for the common people, but do you know how tiring being Emperor is?"

"Uncle, if being Emperor wasn’t exhausting, would you do it?"

"That’s impossible!"

Yuan Yindi completely disbelieved Yuan Bao’s words.

Being Emperor not exhausting?

Is there anything more laughable under heaven?

Yuan Bao chuckled upon hearing this.

"Uncle, why don’t we make a bet? If I can make being Emperor a non-exhausting task, then you must become Emperor, alright?"

"Sure!"

Yuan Yindi agreed without hesitation, "But, girl, if you can’t achieve it, don’t blame Uncle for not helping!"
