Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents Chapter 82: I’m Here to Hunt You Down

"Didn’t they say the Previous Emperor was just in seclusion? Don’t they know, even if they succeed in rebelling, once the Previous Emperor breaks through and cos out, the throne still has to be returned?"

Let’s not even talk about whether this rebellion can succeed or not.

Even if it does, so what?

"So people are just too impatient."

Yan Shuzhu naturally understood this as well. She shook her head, her expression calm.

"A Grandmaster has a lifespan of two hundred years. After breaking through to a Land Immortal, life is further extended by five hundred years. If my royal father really reaches the Land Immortal realm, then even if the Crown Prince is chosen after his return—"

"That person might just be Crown Prince for his entire life."

Good grief, not even waiting for the Previous Emperor to die is an option now.

No wonder. If you want to beco emperor, besides rebellion there’s really no other way. Otherwise, you’ll have to live the rest of your life as a Prince obediently.

Otherwise, by the ti your hair turns white one by one, the Previous Emperor will still be as vigorous as ever.

Seeing Yan Shuzhu troubled by such matters again,

Ye Liuyun suddenly laughed.

"If that’s the case, then let them rebel if they want to. You’re just a puppet emperor in na anyway, what’s there to be upset about."

"?"

Even if that’s the reality, it’s still brutal to say it that bluntly.

"I’m just worried about the common people."

Shaking her head, knowing her own situation best, what Yan Shuzhu worried about was once war breaks out, it’s likely many innocents will be affected and lose their hos.

Got to admit, in this regard, Yan Shuzhu truly is a qualified emperor.

But!

"Did you forget sothing?"

Sotis, when you’re in the ga you can’t see clearly, but bystanders can.

Yan Shuzhu was simply confused by her own care.

"Hmm?"

Hearing this, Yan Shuzhu looked over in confusion, not sure what she’d forgotten.

"The Previous Emperor is on the verge of a breakthrough. The last thing he’d want right now is for the Great Qian Dynasty to fall into chaos. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have picked you as his successor."

Choosing Yan Shuzhu as heir was obviously because of her ’diocrity’.

The point was for the Dynasty to coast peacefully for a few years, until the Previous Emperor returned to the throne after his breakthrough.

"So what are you getting at?"

Yan Shuzhu was sharp, and quickly caught on.

Her eyes lit up with surprise as she looked at Ye Liuyun.

"There are plenty in court loyal to the Previous Emperor. You don’t need to act. They’ll keep the dynasty stable."

Maybe those people already know what these princes and lords are up to. It just hasn’t gotten out of hand yet, so no one’s cared.

But if they ever really get enough power to rebel, soone will surely deal with them right away.

"People— the more anxious they get, the less they’re able to see reality."

Yeah, just like Yan Shuzhu said, these people are indeed too impatient, or else they wouldn’t be making such foolish moves.

"..."

Yan Shuzhu fell silent, not because she doubted Ye Liuyun.

Actually, Yan Shuzhu agreed—everything Ye Liuyun said made sense. It seed like from the very start, she’d never needed to worry about this stuff; soone else would take care of it.

But if that’s true, hasn’t all her recent fretting been utterly pointless?

At that thought, Yan Shuzhu couldn’t help but feel a little gloomy.

This feeling of being so restricted is really suffocating.

"Either way, as long as war doesn’t break out, that’s good enough for ."

As long as the commoners aren’t left holess, that’s sothing to be glad for.

Looking at Yan Shuzhu like this, Ye Liuyun couldn’t help but laugh—even though, getting dragged over here in the middle of the night, he thought sothing major was up, but it turned out to be just this.

Still, you could see—Yan Shuzhu was indeed a responsible and good emperor.

"Sotis you’ve got to realize, since everyone’s treating you like a puppet, you should learn how to play a good puppet."

"?"

Yan Shuzhu gave him a baffled look.

Ye Liuyun went on,

"It’s not worth burning yourself out over stuff like this. If you want to secretly gather power, you should learn how to give others so trouble to keep them occupied. That way, they won’t have ti to cause trouble for you."

Yan Shuzhu wasn’t stupid. She just hadn’t thought of it before.

Now, after hearing Ye Liuyun’s words, she instantly understood.

Her eyes lit up imdiately.

"I know what to do now."

Right, if she could send so problems over to that ’Old Fox’, he probably wouldn’t have so much spare ti to ddle in her business either.

Thinking of this,

Yan Shuzhu’s gaze toward Ye Liuyun turned grateful.

"Lucky to have you around. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have figured out how to break this deadlock."

Ye Liuyun smiled indifferently.

He was only willing to share these things because he found Yan Shuzhu agreeable. Otherwise, he wouldn’t bother at all.

Who cares if you’re emperor or not? The world’s a big place—if you annoy , I’ll just go elsewhere. After living through a whole lifeti, Ye Liuyun didn’t want to be under anyone’s thumb.

You can’t buy my happiness with all the gold in the world.

...

Originally, Yan Shuzhu wanted to have a long heart-to-heart with Ye Liuyun.

But Ye Liuyun refused.

Co on, do you really not see as a man?

With this ti, I’d rather go back and snuggle my sweet, soft Xing’Er to sleep.

Yan Shuzhu felt a bit disappointed but didn’t push it and watched Ye Liuyun leave.

"Truly a great talent!"

With admiration in her tone, beside her, Lv Lan didn’t object after hearing that. She too acknowledged Ye Liuyun’s abilities.

She couldn’t help recalling Ye Liuyun’s Extre Yang Body again.

Should she bring it up with him soti?

But then she thought, she’s still an unmarried girl, broaching that topic?

Forget it—better wait till she’s about to break through to Grandmaster before ntioning it.

...

With Yan Shuzhu’s token, Ye Liuyun passed through all the palace checkpoints with ease and left the imperial palace.

At the sa mont,

The watchers also reported Ye Liuyun’s departure from the palace to He Long.

"Crack!"

Upon hearing the news, the teacup in He Long’s hand shattered instantly.

His expression darkened.

"Let’s see who can protect you now."

It’s clear He Long basically didn’t care for a re Embroidered Uniform Guard Captain.

Recalling how Ye Liuyun mocked him earlier, He Long’s smile twisted into sothing savage.

Think you’re good with words, huh? Once I rip your mouth off, we’ll see what else you can say.

He grabbed his saber and sword from beside him and followed out of the palace as well.

Elsewhere,

Ye Liuyun was originally planning to head straight back ho.

Until he suddenly sensed sothing and stopped in his tracks for a mont.

So that grudge was taken to heart, huh?

With Ye Liuyun’s Late-stage Innate strength, sensing soone tailing him is a piece of cake.

Besides, who knows if He Long’s just underestimating him or what.

He didn’t even bother to restrain his killing intent.

It was basically like announcing to Ye Liuyun: I’m here to kill you.
