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?

The Eighth Prince interrupted Yu Hai: "Are you suggesting that the Tenth Brother deliberately befriended General Song's youngest son and then intentionally hid it from me?"


"Yu Hai, do you really think the Tenth Brother has such scheming?" The Eighth Prince found Yu Hai's idea amusing, "Yu Hai, what kind of person do you take the Tenth Brother for?"


Yu Hai was taken aback by the Eighth Prince's questions.


"Then why didn't the Tenth Brother tell you about knowing General Song's youngest son?"


The Eighth Prince laughed, "He probably forgot."
