Chapter 1068: Sent the Nation to Its Grave
Ning Shu lay down on the chaise lounge and started receiving the storyline.
This was an era where women ruled and men had pretty low status. It was the reverse of the worlds in which men were viewed as superior to women.
Here, women supported the family. Only women could become court officials and women were the ones governing the nation.
The women here were worked like animals, every single one of them was tenacious and tough. Men married into the women’s family.
The original host’s name Mu Nichang, She was Daylily Nation’s female emperor. She was only around thirty and was a mediocre emperor. She didn’t have outstanding ability or any glorious achievements, but she was still a qualified emperor. She preserved the accomplishments of the previous generations.
She only had to steadily carry out her duties as an emperor for this lifetime, then pass the nation onto a suitable successor.
However, on the issue of a successor, she completely ended up sending the nation of Daylily to the grave.
Daylily Nation originally already had a heir apparent, which was the woman dressed in bright yellow earlier in the palace.
However, Mu Nichang doted on her fourth daughter the most and even disposed of the imperial crown prince to help her fourth daughter onto the throne.
However, this fourth daughter didn’t notice Mu Nichang’s painstaking efforts at all. In reality, in the inside, this fourth prince was just a cute lil’ sis. The real fourth prince had been a very ruthless and promiscuous woman and ended up being killed by her male concubines, then the cute lil’ sis transmigrated over.
In this world where women ruled, the cute lil’ sis knew how to act cutely spoiled and often blushed with the inherited good looks of the imperial family’s women, so she attracted the gaze of all sorts of men.
In reality, this was just the story of a girl attracting all sorts of peach blossoms and dating men of every type.
The cute lil’ sis was actually good-natured and treated Mu Nichang very well. She thought of Mu Nichang as her actual mother. It was possible to tell whether a person was sincere or just faking affection towards you, and moreover, Mu Nichang had already been empress for many years.
The fourth prince’s affection for Mu Nichang was genuine, so Mu Nichang protected this daughter both openly and in secret, almost too indulgently.
Then there was the fact that any emperor would dislike the fact that someone else was eying their position. Mu Nichang had probed the fourth prince several times, saying that she was going to pass the throne to the fourth prince, but the fourth prince refused to accept it.
She actually disliked the throne quite a lot. All she wanted to do was be a free prince and enjoy life. If she became emperor, she’d be trapped in this imperial palace.
However, human nature was such: If you insist on snatching it, I refuse to give it to you, but if you don’t want it, I insist on giving it to you.
In the end, this throne still ended up in the fourth prince’s hands. The fourth prince was just a cute lil’ sis, how could she possibly handle court matters? She didn’t understand a single thing. Even though Mu Nichang had taught her before how to govern the nation, it had only been very occasional guidance.
After she ascended to the throne, the person that handled all the court matters was her legal husband, Yuan Jun. This Yuan Jun was the prime minister’s son and was quite good at making plans.
After the fourth prince gave birth to his son, he personally taught his son how to govern the nation. Once his son was able to handle the responsibility, Yuan Jun told the fourth prince to just let their son be emperor so that they could go on a scenic tour.
The fourth prince was naturally willing since she had no objections towards having a man be emperor. After all, in her world, it had always been the men that were emperors.
Afterwards, the fourth prince went on a scenic tour with all her husbands to enjoy the life of having several partners while occasionally coming back to visit her son.
Afterwards, this nation became the property of the Yuan family. Men continued being emperor and the status of men and women slowly started to swap.
