The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"Attendant, have I abdicated?"

"Did I issue an abdication edict while I was dreaming?"

Liu Shan was completely bewildered.

He was genuinely taken aback when he saw the edict announcing Liu Chen's ascension to the throne.

What? He's not dead yet, and he hasn't abdicated, and he can't hold back anymore?

"Your Majesty, the King of the North harbors treacherous intentions and plots to usurp the throne!"

"Fortunately, we broke through the encirclement in Shu, which allowed us to expose his wolfish ambitions!"

Break through the encirclement?

Although Liu Shan usually favored Huang Hao greatly, he felt somewhat ashamed at Huang Hao's words at this moment.

Didn't we escape by breaking up into smaller groups?

Throughout their escape, they never encountered any Wei troops.

Moreover, with our small guards, all skinny and weak, if we really encountered the Wei army, how could we possibly be here alive?

"Well, Attendant, while I do think Liu Chen is being a bit too hasty, what you said is somewhat excessive."

"The situation in Sichuan is critical. No one expected that Chen Tai would emerge from the Ziwu Valley."

"That child had no choice but to become emperor for the sake of the Han Dynasty and to prevent his father's dream from being shattered. That shouldn't be hard to understand, right?"

"It's all for the sake of the Han Dynasty, it's all for the sake of the Chancellor, there's no need to reprimand him like this."

"At worst, I'll just give him a piece of my mind when we get back to the capital..."

Wait, where do we go back to?

Where exactly is the place where Liu Chen ascended the throne, as mentioned in this imperial edict?

In the capital?!

Good heavens! What's going on? Is there something wrong with my eyes, or is there something wrong with my mind?

Liu Shan was dumbfounded.

As a result, Huang Hao and the others also realized what was happening.

When that location appeared, when the words "capital" came up, the fact that the King of the North declared himself emperor didn't seem so unacceptable anymore.

"The capital...?"

"Could it be that the King of the North has already accomplished the ideal that the late Emperor could not achieve in his entire life?"

"Returning to the capital of the Son of Heaven, and proclaiming himself emperor in the capital of the Han Dynasty, this..."

That makes perfect sense!

If it weren't for Liu Shan's presence, some of the ministers would have cried out in surprise.

The Northern King has already returned the capital to its former home. Is it too much for him to declare himself emperor?

Anyone who dares to say anything excessive, go kneel down in the temple of the late emperor and look at the statue of the late emperor and say it!

If the late emperor knew this from beyond the grave, he would be so angry he'd come back to life!

"The Prime Minister's lifelong dream was fulfilled by that child and General Boyue?"

"After I pass away, will I be able to happily go to see my father, the Prime Minister?"

After the initial shock, Liu Shan was left only with excitement.

He didn't have such a strong obsession, but he was still moved on behalf of his father, the prime minister.

"Then, His Majesty is still on the throne, and the Prince of Beidi has declared himself emperor without authorization. Does he still consider himself a subject of the Han Dynasty? Does he still have His Majesty in his eyes?"

Huang Hao had always been at odds with Jiang Wei and Liu Chen, and the two of them had repeatedly petitioned Liu Shan to kill him.

At this point, even if he truly knew that these two had performed an unparalleled feat, he would still do everything in his power to smear them!

Anyone can become emperor, except Liu Chen!

Anyone could achieve extraordinary feats, except for Jiang Wei!

Once these two gain the upper hand, Huang Hao will truly be doomed!

"This... at most, the child was just a little impatient. It's not a big mistake. I'll find more people to teach him in the future."

Despite saying this, Liu Shan was clearly already hesitant.

He is a typical mediocre person.

When his father was alive, he listened to his father; when his prime minister was alive, he listened to his prime minister.

In a sense, if he had always been assisted by capable ministers who could govern well, he might have been a wise and benevolent ruler throughout history.

Unfortunately, now, besides the people listed on the accident report, there is also Huang Hao by his side.

Huang Hao was actually his favorite.

"This is not just being impatient, Your Majesty. Jiang Wei completely disregards you. He didn't even consider sending reinforcements to Shu. Instead, he directly enthroned the new emperor."

"We have come all the way through Yongzhou without encountering any Wei troops. If they had even the slightest thought of sending reinforcements, the reinforcements should have arrived by now."

"But what about them? After learning of the attack on Shu and His Majesty's peril, they not only failed to send any reinforcements, but instead directly enthroned a new emperor. Is this the way of a subject?"

Now, as Huang Hao makes his outrageous remarks, no one refutes him.

Although most people are willing to believe that Jiang Wei was loyal to the Han Dynasty, worked diligently for the Han Dynasty for so many years, and risked his life several times when he went north to Qishan, all of these actions can prove his loyalty to the Han Dynasty.

Being loyal to the Han Dynasty does not necessarily mean being loyal to the current emperor, Liu Shan!

Therefore, in their eyes, Huang Hao's words about Jiang Wei may not necessarily be considered slander.

"What you say makes sense, but if Jiang Wei really doesn't acknowledge me, then what should we do?"

Seeing that Huang Hao spoke up, but no one around him objected, Liu Shan really started to panic.

Even if he didn't concern himself with politics, he knew that the troops in Shu were now all in Jiang Wei's hands.

Now he is like a stray dog, possessing only the title of emperor.

Only if Jiang Wei accepts this title can he be the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!

"Your Majesty, if you are truly worried that Jiang Wei has treacherous intentions, we can disguise ourselves as commoners and secretly travel to the capital."

"At that time, we will see for ourselves. If Jiang Wei has no disloyal intentions, that would be best. Your Majesty only needs to reveal your identity, and we can then reinstate Your Majesty to the palace."

"If he truly intends to commit treason and disown His Majesty, then we will have no choice but to borrow His Majesty's name to rally the armies of the realm to capture him and the Prince of the North!"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, although Jiang Wei committed treasonous acts by supporting the Prince of Beidi to ascend the throne, in the hearts of the people, Your Majesty is the true Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty!"

Huang Hao was full of confidence.

No wonder he's so confident.

Liu Chen was not the type to stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He was capable and courageous, but he also valued filial piety.

These are all excellent qualities, but it depends on the situation.

Jiang Wei's situation was even simpler.

What can Jiang Wei do if Liu Chen is willing to let Liu Shan ascend the throne again?

"Is that right?"

Although Liu Shan favored him, he did not completely believe his one-sided story.

He was only relieved after the surrounding officials, after a brief hesitation, all nodded in agreement.

“In that case, let us do as the Attendant says and go to the capital as ordinary people.”

"This way it's safer, so as not to attract the attention of the Wei army."

……

"What does he want to do?"

"What the hell? What is this rebellious son trying to do?!"

"Men, bring this rebellious son here at full speed!"

"Wait, give him twenty lashes first, then bring him over!"

Looking at the scene on the sky, Liu Bei was almost driven mad with anger.

What is this unfilial son trying to do?!

Before making a decision, doesn't he consider his own worth and abilities?

The opportunity to restore the Han Dynasty was right in front of him; all he had to do was obediently abdicate and become the retired emperor.

But what is he trying to do!
