If you're made a fake emperor, why did you change the country's name?

"Are you ready to be emperor?"

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice rang out.

Zhao Yu's blindfold was removed, and he slowly opened his eyes.

What came into view was a young man dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe.

He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a handsome face, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a heroic air about him.

However, a lingering gloom hung between his brows, ruining his overall imposing aura.

He has the air of a young prodigy, but why does he look so familiar?

Zhao Yu glanced at the mirror that had been prepared to the side and was momentarily stunned.

He looked handsome in the mirror, with striking eyebrows and bright eyes.

Aside from the absence of any gloom between their brows, the two looked as if they had been carved from the same millstone.

Holy crap, nobody told him he had a brother who was an emperor?

Could it be that good days are just around the corner, only a week away?

Zhao Yu had just transmigrated a week ago and become a beggar in the Great Liang Dynasty.

He originally thought that by using his acting skills and modern knowledge, he might not be aiming for a meager start, but he was confident he could become a wealthy man.

As a result, the late emperor passed away before completing his great undertaking.

Before his grand plan could even begin, he was taken away by a group of men in black.

When I opened my eyes again, I was here.

Emperor Zhao Yu of the Great Liang Dynasty looked at Zhao Yu, who looked exactly like him, below the stage, and felt an inexplicable disgust. His smile disappeared, and a murderous intent rose in his heart.

If it weren't for the Wolf Kingdom's army immediately besieging the city, and him needing time to escape, in order to appease the court officials and buy himself some time...

Such a lowly person doesn't deserve to see him, let alone be emperor for three days in his place.

But so be it. In any case, the Wolf Kingdom's army will be at the city gates in three days, and this lowly commoner will surely die.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu said directly, "Your good fortune in this life is just having this face."

As Zhao Yu spoke, he stood up and walked over to Zhao Yu.

He looked down at Zhao Yu and said coldly:

"With a face like yours, I can appoint you as my double and elevate you to the top in one step."

substitute!

Zhao Yu was taken aback.

After all that, he didn't transmigrate into the emperor's twin brother, but simply into a beggar who looked like the emperor!

That would put you in a very bad situation.

After all, no one in power can tolerate someone who can replace them at any time living in the world.

Even if they just look alike, that's absolutely unacceptable.

Zhao Yu slowly raised his head and met the emperor's cold gaze.

"What?" Emperor Zhao Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. "You don't like being emperor?"

Zhao Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a sense of danger appear above his head.

He was currently a beggar, and when he suddenly heard about the incredible opportunity to become emperor, he was speechless for a long time.

That emperor wasn't suspicious; my momentary lapse in concentration had probably aroused his suspicion.

My brain is working at lightning speed.

What should a beggar's reaction be when he hears that he can become emperor? Fear, elation, or feigning ignorance?

No, none of that is right!

It should be...

Zhao Yu had found the answer in his heart.

He shrank his neck slightly, his Adam's apple bobbing, swallowed, and asked weakly, in a tone tinged with timidity and longing:

"Your Majesty... does being the emperor mean you get to eat white flour buns and meat soup every day?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence.

You could hear a pin drop.

Much later.

"hehe……"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Emperor Zhao Yu threw his head back and burst into laughter.

The eunuch standing nearby also covered his mouth and chuckled.

The laughter subsided, Zhao Yu turned and walked back to the dragon throne, sitting down. He looked at Zhao Yu with disdain and slowly spoke:

"As long as you do a good job, forget about white flour buns and meat soup."

"Even if you desire dragon liver and phoenix gall, I can have the imperial kitchen prepare it for you, however..."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a low voice:

"You must be my double. If anyone finds out, I will make you wish you were dead."

Zhao Yu quickly lowered his head, as if in fear.

But I felt a sense of relief.

Bet right.

Does it matter how a beggar reacts when he learns he's going to be emperor?

important.

But more importantly, the emperor wanted to see how the beggar would react.

Three parts fear, seven parts ignorance; filled with awe for imperial power, yet also with a primal yearning for a life of wealth and luxury.

This is the best response.

However, the stand-in emperor...

Where no one could see him, Zhao Yu glanced at Emperor Zhao Yu's attire.

The bright yellow dragon robe, adorned with a five-clawed golden dragon with piercing, lifelike eyes.

It's so beautiful.

Zhao Yu's lips curled up slightly.

This style... is one I like.

[Ding! A major change in the host's identity has been detected. The Emperor Role-Playing System has been officially activated!]

[You can earn generous rewards as your role-playing level increases.]

[Current role-playing level: 0%]

Double happiness!

Emperor Role-Playing System?

Play the role of the emperor and increase your role-playing level to earn rewards.

But how can we improve the level of performance?

A cold system notification sounded in my mind again.

[Your current role-playing level is too low. System notification: The number of people who approve, the level of approval, and the host's own behavior are all closely related to your role-playing level. Please focus on improving these aspects.]

It turned out to be the case.

At that moment, the emperor's voice came.

"Stand up straight, straighten your back, and let me see you," the emperor's voice rang out again, interrupting Zhao Yu's thoughts.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu took a deep breath.

Is he playing an emperor?

I did act twice in my previous life. Although I wasn't as good as Teacher Chen Dao, I was still a well-known figure in the entertainment industry.

Zhao Yu slowly straightened his chest.

The next second, his previously timid figure suddenly changed.

His back was straight, his shoulders relaxed, his chin slightly tucked in, and his eyes, which had been timid just moments before, had become deep and profound.

In just a moment, his posture changed, and the wretched look of a beggar vanished, replaced by a majestic and imposing aura of an emperor!

It was as if he was born to stand here and receive the worship of all people.

At this moment, Emperor Zhao Yu and the old eunuch beside him were both stunned.

The current Zhao Yu looks exactly like the emperor they've imagined!

The palace fell into a deathly silence; you could hear a pin drop.

[Ding! The host's behavior initially aligns with imperial qualities; performance level increased by 0.01%!]

[Congratulations, host, you have received a newbie gift pack!]

[Rewards: Portable space & 1km³, Ruyi Jade Seal, National Fortune Protection.]

A system notification sounded in Zhao Yu's ear.

Portable space, imperial seal, body protection?

But why are these three so mysterious, each one more so than the last?

The portable space is self-explanatory; anyone who has read the novel knows about it.

As its name suggests, the Ruyi Jade Seal can transform into various jade seals according to the wearer's wishes.

The idea of ​​a nation's destiny protecting it is too mystical; protection is determined by the strength of the nation.

Being immune to all diseases and poisons are minor abilities; Zhao Yu even felt that if one became strong enough, one could even achieve immortality!

It seems he has no choice but to become emperor.

Seeing the emperor and eunuch's shocked expressions, Zhao Yu quickly composed himself.

Now is not the time to show off; that last move was a bit too much.

He deliberately grinned, revealing a smug expression, then took two exaggerated steps, completely destroying the domineering aura he had just created.

Sure enough, seeing his ridiculous, imitative manner, the shock in the eyes of the emperor and the eunuch immediately turned into disappointment and contempt.

The imposing aura vanished in an instant.

But when Emperor Zhao Yu thought of Zhao Yu's fleeting glimpse of imperial bearing, a surge of anger rose in his heart for no reason, and he cursed under his breath.

"A beggar is a beggar; he can't be helped. He'll be exposed as soon as he moves."

Crunch!

Just then, the palace door was gently pushed open, and a slightly plump eunuch with his head down walked quickly in and went straight to the emperor's side.

Upon seeing the newcomer, the emperor, no longer inclined to ponder, waved his hand at the old eunuch and said in a sinister tone:

"Fu'an, take him down and give him a good 'training,' let him know what a stand-in should do."

"Your servant obeys the decree."

The old eunuch Fu'an respectfully responded, then walked to Zhao Yu's side and made a "please" gesture.

After glancing at the fat eunuch, Zhao Yu followed the old eunuch and left the palace.

After Zhao Yu left, the fat eunuch immediately knelt down and lowered his voice.

"Your Majesty, Consorts Li, Zhang, Yang, and Miao are all ready and can leave with you at any time."

Emperor Zhao Yu nodded, his face expressionless.

The plump eunuch hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Your Majesty, then... Consort Shen Miaochu, are you really not taking her with you?"

Shen Miaochu!

Upon hearing this name, Emperor Zhao Yu felt not annoyance, but rather a deep sense of heartache and reluctance.

The most powerful Taoist lineage in the Great Liang Dynasty, the Holy Maiden of Jade Void Temple, and the second most beautiful woman on the list of beauties in the martial arts world.

The first time he saw Shen Miaochu, he felt as if she were a fairy descended from heaven. After just one glance, he couldn't stop thinking about her.

If it weren't for the need to appease those old foxes in the court and make them believe that he was still in the palace, he would definitely have taken this woman with him!

But the only way to keep Shen Miaochu here is to prevent those people from becoming suspicious.

The thought of this made Zhao Yu feel as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

That woman just entered the palace, and he hasn't touched her yet!
