Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

During this pivotal juncture, the Third Prince and Lin Yue visited Su Bin more frequently than before. Su Bin reiterated multiple times that he would offer unwavering support from the beginning to the end.

Su Bin held the conviction that if the Public House seized the throne, it wouldn’t be a boon for the commoners. The prevailing feudal mentality dictated that people were inherently reluctant to let the Public House dominate the world, believing that if the Public House could ascend, they could too. In such a scenario, regional heroes might self-proclaim as kings, and the flames of war would persist, leading to unending internal conflicts. The vulnerability

of scattered troops would create an opportune moment for external

adversaries to strike.

Inevitably, not only would the commoners suffer, but even noble families would be adversely affected. Dynastic changes historically resulted in a substantial loss of life.

The optimal solution to avert war was for the Third Prince to reclaim the throne, ensuring peace in the realm.

During their meals together, Su Bin would dismiss the servants, creating an intimate setting for the four of them to dine leisurely while analyzing the court’s situation.

On numerous occasions, the Third Prince and Lin Yue didn’t exclude Qin Zhenzhen from their discussions. They recognized her as no ordinary woman. Sometimes, her casual insights proved more valuable than days of their own contemplation.

How could they have known that Qin Zhenzhen had perused this particular book? She possessed crucial insights into the Public House’s vulnerabilities and strategies to deal with them.

In the original narrative, the Public House featured sparingly. Following the ascension of the Eighth Imperial Uncle, the Public House harbored considerable discontent. While the Public House had long harbored ambitions to seize the throne, the Eighth Imperial Uncle abruptly intervened, disrupting their plans. However, the Public House, mindful of their limited strength, endured the humiliation without openly provoking the Eighth Imperial Uncle. The delicate balance persisted as the Eighth Imperial Uncle refrained from rashly attacking, given the instability of his foundation.

Su Bin’s strategic assistance eventually led to the overthrow of the entire

Public House. When the Eighth Imperial Uncle ascended the throne, the General Manor maintained a silent stance, committed to guarding the border while awaiting the growth of the Third Prince.

“Governor Su, Mrs. Su, Master and I propose a toast to you,” declared the Third Prince, his magnetic voice pulling Qin Zhenzhen back to the present.

Su Bin demurred, “You’re too polite, Third Prince. I cannot accept.”

The Third Prince insisted, “Governor Su, you deserve it.”

Su Bin and his wife’s contributions played a pivotal role in the Third Prince’s current position, a favor he would never forget.

Lin Yue added earnestly, “Governor Su, no need for formalities. Let’s drink together and wish the Third Prince success!”

Qin Zhenzhen, too, rose from her seat. “I’ll go along with that. Being a commoner, I’ll substitute tea for wine. Any objections?”

The Third Prince and Lin Yue chuckled in unison. “No objections!”

As their glasses neared emptiness, Qin Zhenzhen’s gaze lingered on the Third Prince’s face.

As expected of the male protagonist in the book. Devoid of the disguise on his face, he was so handsome that it seemed to incite envy from both humans and gods alike.

The Third Prince had reached the age of twenty, possessing a slender and striking handsomeness. His countenance reflected a dedication to self-improvement, radiating positive energy throughout his entire being.

Without the veil of disguise, he could easily captivate the hearts of young ladies worldwide.

Qin Zhenzhen discreetly assessed the timeline, realizing that the female lead from the book had likely transmigrated into this world and might have encountered the Third Prince.

Engaging the topic of the martial arts world’s leader, Qin Zhenzhen specifically inquired of the Third Prince, “Your Highness, are you acquainted with a girl named Ruolan?”

Su Ruolan served as the female lead in the original book..
