Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

This year was not a good one for either the palace or the families of the court officials outside the palace.

Although most of the Left Chancellor's cronies have been arrested and imprisoned, it is still possible that there are remnants in the palace who are loyal to the Left Chancellor, and a thorough investigation is still needed.

Outside the palace, it's even more direct.

The Left Chancellor's followers all joined in the coup, and their families could no longer enjoy wealth and luxury in their mansions.

Prince Yi, Prince Jing, and others were captured for their rebellion, but their fiefdoms still needed to be reclaimed. Evidence also needed to be found on other princes who knew about the matter but pretended not to know, and they were all dealt with one by one.

The first two were manageable, but this last one is a huge undertaking.

Just as Yu Shuming was pondering whether to bring in his own people to fill the vacancies in the court, the emperor did something big.

He directly announced his abdication, returning the throne to his father, Yu.

After announcing this, he took the Empress and a group of concubines back to his former residence, the Prince of Yu's Mansion.

Incidentally, he also took Yin Yin with him.

After he was deposed and made Prince Yu, Yin Yin felt that he was like a big dog that wanted to grab and pluck everything, making people want to beat him up, but they could only indulge him.

However, it wasn't just him; even the former empress, now the Princess Consort of Yu, felt much better after arriving at the Prince Yu's residence.

However, Yin Yin did not stay at the Prince Yu's residence for long, as the Princess Yu had instructed.

"My sister-in-law is far away in Shu Prefecture. If she wants to come back, it will be at least next spring."

"Although I, as your younger brother's wife, am willing to help, it is not appropriate for me to interfere in my brother-in-law's court affairs."

“Yinyin, you’ve been learning from me for so long, you’re good at everything, and you’re familiar with the Shanggong Bureau. It’s only right that you go back and help your father and brothers manage the household.”

Princess Yu brought up Yu's father, and Prince Yu stopped talking. He just told Yin Yin, "The palace is so boring. If you have free time, come to your uncle's place often. I'll have someone prepare whatever you want to eat."

Yinyin returned to the palace and took on the duties of the inner palace.

However, her purpose was not solely to take care of her father and brothers.

Within ten days of her return to the palace, many more people who had obeyed the rebels were arrested.

Taking this opportunity, Yin Yin, after speaking with her father and brothers, also released many palace servants.

Especially the confidants of the concubines in the first batch, and the people they had planted in their families.

After Yin Yin cleaned things up, the palace suddenly became deserted, and many positions were even short-staffed.

But once Yin Yin reformed the work system and selected some capable young palace maids, these problems were no longer problems.

In such a short time, Yin Yin managed to sort out all the affairs in the palace, and Yu's father and Yu Shuming didn't let her be idle either.

Yin Yin herself was quite skilled in martial arts and had a good understanding of military strategy, so they often took her to court.

Thanks to the fact that when Prince Yu was in power, he often brought Yin Yin to court and gave her many special treatments, now that Yin Yin is being brought to court by her father and brothers, most officials have no objections.

A very small minority who disagreed with Yu's father and Prince Yu, arguing that Yin Yin, as a woman, should not enjoy these rights, were also vetoed by Yu's father and Yu Shuming out of favoritism.

Later, these people discovered that attending court was nothing. While the court was busy cleaning up its own affairs and didn't care about them, the several vassal kings simply united and wanted to declare independence as a country. Among the people sent by the court to lead troops to suppress them was Princess Yinyin, who was only ten years old.

Although Yin Yin was not the commander-in-chief, it was enough to cause a huge uproar in the court.

Upon receiving this news, even Prince Yu and his wife, who had not been to the palace for a long time, rushed over.

Then they learned something even more outrageous.

Not only does Yin Yin have her own team as a young player, but she has also included her former friends in the team.

The youngest son of the Grand General is alright, as he was originally a reserve general for the imperial court.

The Right Chancellor's eldest grandson could accept it, after all, this kid has been smart since he was a child.

How did Situ Yousun get in? Did he go to the battlefield to act cute?

In response, Yin Yin said, "He's not as useless as you uncles think."

"At least in terms of obedience, execution, and trust in me, they are far superior to the others."

Prince Yu believed this. Back when these people and Yin Yin were studying at the Hongwen Academy together, they didn't just fawn over Yin Yin because of their status.

After inquiring more carefully about the configuration of Yin Yin's troops, Prince Yu felt relieved. He turned back to Princess Yu and said, "It's just like children playing house, trying to get some credit. I doubt they'll even be called to the battlefield."

Although Princess Yu believed it, she was still somewhat uneasy, so she immediately had a lot of medicine prepared and sent to Yin Yin.

Just as Princess Yu had predicted, when they arrived at the battlefield, although the general and others did not arrange any battles for Yin Yin and the others, and Yin Yin did indeed train the troops well in the rear, her prominent status made her an easy target for some people to use to negotiate with the court, so they deliberately went around to the rear.

After several months of training, Yin Yin and her group were approached by an enemy. Undeterred, they led their specially trained army into battle.

The enemy deliberately circled around to the rear, not daring to make too much noise, so naturally not many people came.

As a result, the enemies who originally wanted to take down Yin Yin were all taken down by Yin Yin's side.

When the general personally led the reinforcements on horseback, he immediately saw the rebels who were tightly bound and guarded in the open space.

Looking at the demoralized rebel army and Yin Yin's soldiers with their sharp, dagger-like aura, the general felt an irresistible urge and went to find his son to inquire about the situation.

Unfortunately, his son would say everything he was supposed to say, but when it came to military training, he would fall silent. If you asked him a few more questions, he would say to go find Yin Yin.

The general was both disappointed that he could not train more good soldiers and pleased that his son had kept the secret. After taking the rebels away from Yin Yin, he immediately submitted a memorial to the emperor to recommend her for merit.

In the subsequent battles, although Yin Yin was still not on the main battlefield, the general no longer kept them aside as mascots.

It was from here that Yin Yin's friends witnessed the cruelty of real war, gradually transforming into completely different people.

Yinyin and the others stayed at the border for more than three years, following the general to sweep away all the vassal states and also beat up the ambitious foreign tribes before returning to the capital with a wealth of military achievements.

Looking at the city gates he hadn't seen in a long time, even Situ Yousun felt a mix of trepidation and longing for home.

"Princess, we won so beautifully. I hope I won't get scolded by my father when I go home?"
