Qin Xiao sat on the dragon throne, his fingers gently tapping the armrest.
He was not surprised in the slightest by Prince Qi's rebellion.
On the contrary, he was looking forward to Prince Qi attacking as soon as possible!
Deeply buried memories surfaced in Qin Xiao's mind.
It was a period of agonizing, unforgettable pain, enough to tear his soul apart!
Even though he was not the original owner of this body, whenever he thought of it, his blood boiled with rage, and he wished he could take up a sword and slaughter this entire group of people!
This Prince Qi was his mortal enemy!
The Supreme Emperor loved playing the game of the true and false young masters.
And Prince Qi was that false prince.
Back then, despite being a true prince, Qin Xiao had accidentally been lost among the commoners. Meanwhile, Prince Qi was escorted back to the capital surrounded by a massive entourage, receiving all the love and thousands of favors.
But what about Qin Xiao?
He was adopted by others and subjected to year-round abuse.
Never having enough to eat or warm clothes to wear was the norm.
He often had to fight wild dogs for food and brawl with beggars over a piece of rancid flatbread.
From childhood to adulthood, Qin Xiao's body was covered in bruises and scars.
It was not until he was twelve that he was taken back by the royal family.
As for that fake prince, Qin Yu, not only was he not punished, but he was also doted on in every possible way by the Supreme Emperor and the three princesses.
Qin Xiao's life, on the other hand, was considered worthless. Even his biological parents felt he was an embarrassment and threw him into the dog kennel!
This continued until Qin Xiao was fourteen, when the Great Qin Empire was besieged by enemies both inside and out, and the nation was on the verge of collapse!
The family then demanded that Qin Xiao join the army and sacrifice his life for the country to boost the morale of the frontline soldiers.
Qin Xiao thought that by doing this, he could earn his parents' love, even if it was just a tiny, insignificant sliver.
With resolute determination and a heart prepared for death, he enlisted in the military.
From then on, Qin Xiao began a magnificent and turbulent life!
He rose to fame, his prestige shaking the world!
Capturing two emperors in a single battle was even recorded in history, becoming the highest honor for a military commander!
After eight years of campaigning across the world, Great Qin rose to power, gaining a greater voice among the myriad nations.
It became a formidable power among the Seven Kingdoms!
However, even though Qin Xiao had sacrificed everything, his parents and sisters still refused to look him in the eye.
Qin Yu even frequently framed him, claiming he had sticky fingers in the palace.
And that he was amassing troops at the border, plotting to rebel.
Qin Xiao found it hard to defend himself against these accusations and could only endure them in silence, hoping that his parents would eventually share a portion of their love with him.
Until this time.
Qin Yu colluded with the Emperor and others, finding a flimsy excuse to trick Qin Xiao into returning to the capital.
They threw Qin Xiao into the heavenly prison on trumped-up charges.
And that was what led to the arrival of the transmigrator, the current Qin Xiao.
"Old bastard! Didn't you love playing the true and false young master game? I will soon capture your precious Yu and bury him alive right alongside you!"
Qin Xiao's chest heaved violently, his expression ferocious and his eyes bloodshot, as a breath of scalding white mist shot from his nostrils.
Right now, he really, really wanted to beat this group of people to death with his bare hands!
I am the Emperor now, why the hell would I still play this true and false young master game with you!
Death! I sentence you all to death!!
"Your... Your Majesty... there is one more thing..."
The general kneeling on the ground looked up and saw Qin Xiao's furious expression. His courage shattered in terror, and his voice trembled.
"Prince Qi asked me to bring you a message..."
"Speak!"
Qin Xiao's eyes half-narrowed.
The general gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Prince Qi said that Your Majesty has no respect for your sovereign or father, and demands that Your Majesty commit suicide to atone for your sins. Otherwise... in three days, an army of half a million will arrive at the city gates... and... and they will behead Your Majesty..."
After saying this, the general collapsed to the ground as if drained of all strength, his heart pounding wildly and his back drenched in sweat, terrified that Qin Xiao would execute him in the very next second!
The civil and military officials in the court were overjoyed, looking at Qin Xiao with eyes full of gloating.
Qin Xiao slowly stood up.
"Prince Qi, is it?"
His tone was calm, yet it sent a chilling dread through everyone's hearts.
"I was just worrying about not having an opportunity to capture him."
Hearing this, the civil and military officials felt extreme disdain in their hearts.
Your army of a million men is all stationed at the borders.
Not to mention Prince Qi is about to arrive at the city gates.
How are you going to fight?
You can only wait for death!
But they did not dare voice these thoughts, much less show any expressions of contempt.
They were terrified that if they were not careful, Qin Xiao would have them dragged out and executed.
"Qin Xiao! You traitor, what audacity!"
A female voice brimming with fury suddenly exploded in the hall!
The civil and military officials were startled.
Who was it?
Who was so reckless with their life?
Everyone looked toward the sound and saw a woman of about twenty-four or twenty-five walking in through the main doors of the great hall.
Dressed in a fiery red palace gown, she had thick, sharp eyebrows and eyes that blazed like torches. Her exquisitely beautiful face was overflowing with anger.
With her long legs, she walked with a commanding stride up to the main hall, her chest heaving heavily.
She was none other than the Third Princess, Qin Ruyan.
"Qin Xiao! You ambitious, wolf-hearted bastard! We never should have recognized you and brought you back all those years ago! It would have been better if you had just died out there!"
"You actually dare to rebel! You even forced Imperial Father to abdicate! And now you threaten to capture Yu! Are you even human?!"
The more Qin Ruyan spoke, the angrier she became, glaring at Qin Xiao as if she wanted to hack him into a thousand pieces.
Qin Xiao looked at her, the depths of his eyes growing cold.
An inexplicable emotion began to breed in his heart.
He slowly stood up and walked down the dragon steps one by one, closing in on Qin Ruyan.
His terrifying aura made Qin Ruyan's heart skip a beat, and she instinctively stepped back.
But then she seemed to remember something; she immediately straightened her back, her gaze filled with mockery.
"Qin Xiao, what? Who are you trying to scare? Do not tell me you would actually dare to hit me? I am your older sister!"
She was not afraid of Qin Xiao in the slightest.
In the past, she used to train Qin Xiao like a dog, lashing him with a whip stroke after stroke, and he never dared to strike back even once.
Even later, when Qin Xiao commanded a million troops and his might shook the world, he still had to respectfully call her Third Sister whenever he saw her.
Beside her, the old eunuch accompanying Qin Ruyan was also acting high and mighty, helping her shout angrily.
"Qin Xiao, you commit high treason! Kneel down and beg the Princess for forgiveness!"
Qin Xiao stared at Qin Ruyan, looking at the arrogant and domineering face in front of him.
And right at this moment.
A young girl's voice echoed in his mind.
[Ding! Detected that the host is in a female-oriented novel world. The Divine Emperor Choice System has been activated!]
[Choice 1: Kneel and apologize, admit to your treasonous actions, and beg for forgiveness. Reward: One Green Hat of Forgiveness.]
[Choice 2: Bawl your eyes out, claim that your mind was clouded by foolishness, admit your mistakes, and obtain forgiveness. Reward: The title of Trash Emperor.]
[Choice 3: You want me to apologize? Then let me give you a taste of my fists! Let us see if your mouth is harder or my fists are harder! Reward: One hundred thousand Great Snow Dragon Cavalry!]
He suddenly smiled.
"I never hit the elderly or women."
Qin Ruyan smiled smugly. "Qin Xiao, are you bowing your head to me? But there is not the slightest bit of sincerity in this. Kneel down..."
Before she could finish her sentence.
Qin Xiao's right palm struck out like lightning!
Slap!
A crisp, clean sound rang out.
"But you are not elderly! And this damned eunuch is not a woman!"
Qin Xiao's cold laughter echoed throughout the imperial court.
A clear handprint was stamped on Qin Ruyan's face as she was slapped hard to the ground!
The civil and military officials were dumbfounded, gasping in shock.
Qin Xiao... actually dared to hit the Princess?
Qin Ruyan was stunned for a moment, and then she completely lost her mind!
She let out a shriek and scrambled up, ready to fight Qin Xiao to the death.
Qin Xiao raised his right hand again.
Slap!
Another slap!
This time, Qin Ruyan could not even speak. She spun around three times like a top, bleeding from her eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.
But this still was not the end of it.
Qin Xiao grabbed Qin Ruyan by the hair, dragging her in front of him. Leaning in slightly with an arrogant smile, he enunciated every single word.
"Who do you think you are? Do you really think you are fit to be my sister? Ordering me to kneel and apologize? Are you even worthy?!"
Qin Ruyan was about to curse at him, but when she met Qin Xiao's cold and ruthless gaze, a piercing chill ran deep into her bones.
Qin Xiao... was going to kill her!
"No... I am your sister!"
"You cannot treat me like this!"
"Bah! You bitch! You are not worthy!"
With that said, Qin Xiao struck her face back and forth, his hands flying in a flurry of slaps.
Slap! Slap!
The crisp sound of slaps rang out continuously.
Qin Ruyan's face swelled up like a pig's head before she completely passed out.
The civil and military officials of the entire court felt the hair on their bodies stand on end, falling as silent as winter cicadas.
They never could have imagined that Qin Xiao would dare to commit such a treasonous act of violence against Qin Ruyan!
The Supreme Emperor is your own father!
And the Third Princess is your sister!
Qin Xiao slowly let go, tossing Qin Ruyan aside like a piece of trash.
Seeing his master beaten, an old eunuch standing nearby hurriedly rushed forward, ready to fight Qin Xiao to the death.
"You treacherous rebel, Qin Xiao! How dare you assault the Third Princess! This old servant will have your life!"
With a loud shout, the old eunuch seized the moment when Qin Xiao seemed distracted. He pulled out a poison-laced dagger gleaming with a green light from his waist and thrust it straight at Qin Xiao's face without a moment of hesitation!
