Quick Transmigration: Don't Let an Honest Man Become a Villainous Supporting Female Character

A very strange scene has now unfolded in the palace.

Xiao Yanchen would occasionally attend court on behalf of the emperor to handle state affairs, while the real emperor, dressed in official robes and accompanied by constables, would go around arresting people in the streets.

Ji Chaoxi stood on the second floor of the restaurant, her gaze fixed on the man wearing a bamboo hat downstairs.

"His steps were extremely fast, and his right hand was hidden in his sleeve. He was looking for a contact." Ji Chaoxi said excitedly.

The constable looked at Ji Chaoxi, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back. He was genuinely afraid that the Emperor might get hurt, as this was no small matter.

"Your Majesty, perhaps..."

Ji Chaoxi ignored him, climbed over the second-floor railing, and instantly disappeared into the crowd.

The prisoner was very alert and suddenly drew his knife, startling the surrounding people who screamed and ran away.

The constables quickly followed, and Ji Chaoxi kicked off the shelf next to her. The iron chain immediately wrapped around the prisoner's wrist, and the constables seized the prisoner and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness.

Another one was caught today, and Ji Chaoxi kindly sent the prisoner to jail.

The afterglow of the setting sun enveloped the entire sky. Ji Chaoxi hurriedly ran towards the palace. If she returned late, Xiao Yanchen would say those sour things again.

Sure enough, when she arrived at the palace gate, Xiao Yanchen was leaning against the wall, looking at her panting with a resentful gaze.

Ji Chaoxi guiltily avoided his gaze. Xiao Yanchen squatted in front of her, and she leaned forward and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Xiao Yanchen steadily supported her and bounced her up a little.

Exhausted, Ji Chaoxi leaned on his shoulder and asked, "Did you manage my empire well today?"

Xiao Yanchen chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, I have been managing Your Majesty's empire well, but I lack Your Majesty's company."

Ji Chaoxi said "Oh," and smiled, "Then I'll go with you tomorrow."

Xiao Yanchen didn't say anything, but just bounced her around again.

As the weather gradually turned colder, Ji Chaoxi disliked Xiao Yanchen getting close to her in the summer; she always felt stifled.

Xiao Yanchen was very satisfied with the change in temperature, because as soon as the weather got cold, Ji Chaoxi would take the initiative to approach him. Sometimes he really hoped that this kind of weather could last longer.

As night deepened, the wind gradually picked up, trying to get through the windows. The floor heating in the hall was warm, but she felt it wasn't enough.

Xiao Yanchen was leaning against the bed reading a secret report when Ji Chaoxi climbed up on all fours and pressed herself tightly against his chest.

Xiao Yanchen put down the secret report, gently held the back of her head, his fingertips piercing her hair, and kissed her lips directly.

Ji Chaoxi sensed it in a half-dreaming, half-awake state, but she had long been accustomed to Xiao Yanchen's closeness and unconsciously catered to him.

Xiao Yanchen gently bit her lower lip, caressing it lightly, and stroked her earlobe with his hand. Their breathing grew heavier and heavier until he felt she could hardly breathe, and then he let her go.

Xiao Yanchen pressed his forehead against Ji Chaoxi's, looking at her blushing face, and his heart melted completely.

He held her tightly in his arms, kissed her forehead, and whispered, "Sleep well, Xixi."

Ji Chaoxi found a comfortable spot and fell into a deep sleep.

Seventeen hasn't lived on the roof beam for many years. Can you say that he actually prefers living on the roof beam?

But after Xiao Yanchen told him to go back and rest on his birthday, he could no longer sleep on the beams of Ruhui Palace and could only stay on the bed in the courtyard next door.

He was actually very disappointed. Those two roof beams bore witness to his youth, and he had lost his youth...

The old emperor is dead.

The news reached Ruhui Palace just as dawn was breaking.

The eunuch knelt at the door, his voice trembling: "The Emperor Emeritus has passed away."

In fact, the old emperor should have passed away several years ago, but Xiao Yanchen kept him alive with medicine. The old emperor was paralyzed in bed, unable to speak or move his hands. Every day, someone would report to him everything that happened in the palace, and he could only listen painfully with his cloudy eyes open.

At first, the eunuchs in the palace took good care of him, but later they found that Ji Chaoxi and Xiao Yanchen never came, so they gradually became lax.

The old emperor had many bedsores, and no one ever helped him treat them.

He would glance at the eunuch beside him every now and then. The eunuch knew what he meant and asked in a loud voice, "Do you wish to see the Emperor?"

The old emperor nodded with difficulty. He knew how ruthless Xiao Yanchen was, so he wanted to see Ji Chaoxi, hoping she could help him.

The eunuch gave a sarcastic smile: "You'd better not think such things. If you frighten the Emperor in your current state, he'll definitely come after you."

Tears streamed down the old emperor's face as he stared blankly at the ceiling, unable to understand why he had fallen to such a state.

His path to the throne was very smooth; he never imagined that his later years would be like this.

If he had treated Xiao Yanchen better back then, would things be different now...?

When the old emperor died, he was curled up in a ball; his body was as thin as a sheet of paper.

Xiao Yanchen did not go to see him, but simply had him buried hastily.

The ministers in the court naturally knew about this, which further deepened their impression of Xiao Yanchen's ruthlessness.

Overnight, the red walls were completely covered with white snow, and the air was filled with a chilly atmosphere. The branches of the red plum trees were bent under the weight of the snow, and with a "crack," the sparrows that were searching for food in the snow were startled.

Ji Chaoxi was wearing a fox fur cloak, the fur collar making her face look even rosier. She held up a snowball, her eyes bright, and threw it at Xiao Yanchen opposite her.

Xiao Yanchen watched her with a smile, letting her smash things, just like when they were children, when he let her hit him during martial arts practice.

He just liked it when she touched him.

Ji Chaoxi got bored after playing for a while, ran up to him, and said angrily, "You're not playing with me."

Xiao Yanchen looked at Ji Chaoxi's eyes, which were clearly filled with mischief, and tentatively gave her a cold look.

Sure enough, the next second Ji Chaoxi started to pretend to cry: "Xiao Yanchen, how could you be so mean? You've frozen my face. I'm angry."

Xiao Yanchen chuckled softly, hugged her, and snuggled against her: "Naughty Xixi."

But he really liked it.

When he was a child, he often felt that life was meaningless. He had nothing he liked and no one he liked. He thought that he might end up like the concubine in the cold palace. When he couldn't take it anymore, he would jump into a well and end it all.

But then Ji Chaoxi appeared, and he felt happy every day he spent with her. He no longer felt that life was boring. He wanted to spend his whole life with her and he wanted her to be happy every day.

It was because of his Xixi that he felt that God actually favored him.

Many people suffer, but not everyone is so lucky.

The snowman's head fell off the ground. Xiao Yanchen carefully picked up the snowman's head and pressed it back onto its body.

Actually, he didn't know what a snowman was, but Xixi would build one every year, so he thought that the snowman must be something important to her.

"Xiao Yanchen!" A clear voice suddenly rang out.

Xiao Yanchen subconsciously raised his head. Ji Chaoxi's eyes were bright. She leaned closer to him and suddenly kissed him on the lips.

Before Xiao Yanchen could react, she turned and ran away.

Looking at her flushed ears and recalling the kiss just now, he couldn't help but laugh out loud, his eyes filled with clarity and tenderness.
