The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 536 - 472: Breaking Ties of Gratitude

"Your Majesty, this cannot be!"

Upon hearing Emperor Xia speak of being buried with Daxia, the Eldest Princess immediately opposed it.

"Aunt, the downfall of Daxia is my fault!"

"If I hadn’t forgotten my gratitude, Daxia would have surely unified the empire and established an eternal foundation."

"But now, the empire’s collapse is imminent, and our ancestral temples and altars are unsafe. I am ashamed to linger on!"

Emperor Xia genuinely felt a deep sense of guilt, but he was also confronted with the truth, realizing his actions were like those of a frog at the bottom of a well, a mere clown, and his mind was in turmoil.

"Your Majesty, what does temporary disgrace matter?"

"Since this Daxia, Beili, and Great Yin are mere small corners of the world, what is there to cling to?"

"Since the Daxia royal family has no place to survive here, why not take the chance to traverse the boundless Hanhai Desert and see the real world?"

The Eldest Princess looked seriously at Emperor Xia, her words earnest and sincere.

"Our Daxia royal family does not have many unworthy descendants, and Your Majesty has remarkable talent and vision. Since this realm offers no hope, we can venture into the real world."

"Even if we fail, at least we have not lived this life in vain!"

"If Your Majesty gives up on ambition due to this temporary defeat, would that not make those close to you grieve, and your enemies rejoice?"

"Moreover, how can Your Majesty be sure Mr. Ying won’t return?"

"If Mr. Ying comes back and sees Your Majesty in this state, he truly would lose confidence in Daxia!"

To ensure Emperor Xia regained his will to live, the Eldest Princess exhausted her thoughts.

Truthfully, the Eldest Princess harbored resentment towards Emperor Xia.

A good hand of cards was ruined by Emperor Xia.

First, the empress dowager was disturbed, and then Emperor Xia got stuck in a predicament!

Despite being an exemplary ruler, Emperor Xia, in pursuit of supposed filial piety and posthumous fame, sought to destroy the pillar of Daxia, the Wei Family, which was truly foolish.

But at this moment, the Eldest Princess still tried whatever means necessary to preserve Emperor Xia’s life.

If Daxia is destined to fall, then the future of the Daxia royal family is in peril.

And if they were to venture to the world beyond the Hanhai Desert, they would need a leader, or perhaps a scapegoat.

Emperor Xia is undoubtedly the best choice.

The Hanhai Desert is certainly not easy to cross.

Otherwise, over the years, no one would know that this is merely a forgotten land.

According to the Eldest Princess’s plans, as the Daxia royal family heads west, unexpected incidents may occur, and at that time, Emperor Xia might become the leader, guiding them through, or become the scapegoat, inspiring them to continue forward.

Though Emperor Xia is the Eldest Princess’s nephew, compared to her own children and grandchildren, Emperor Xia is evidently an outsider.

At this time, Emperor Xia didn’t think so far.

He was agitated by the truth, stirred, and contemplated death.

The Eldest Princess’s persuasion warmed Emperor Xia’s heart greatly.

Thus, he didn’t consider the intricacies involved. Even if he did, he likely wouldn’t think that far ahead.

But undeniably, with the Eldest Princess’s advice, Emperor Xia’s suicidal thoughts dissipated almost entirely.

"Aunt, you are right!"

Emperor Xia revitalized himself, looked at the Eldest Princess, "I indeed should pull myself together."

"Regardless of whether Daxia can continue to exist, I should not abandon myself!"

"This realm is a forgotten land, then I shall lead my Daxia royal family to venture into the real world and see what kind of world it is!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

The Eldest Princess saw Emperor Xia regain his spirits and also breathed a sigh of relief.

This nephew of hers is indeed a capable person.

As an emperor, he worked diligently, causing Daxia’s national power to flourish, forcing Beili and Great Yin to join forces.

Even so, Daxia still holds the upper hand.

In the past, whether it was Beili or Great Yin, they could suppress Daxia.

But now, the situation has changed!

Things are looking good!

However, thinking of Emperor Xia’s blunder, the Eldest Princess really doesn’t know what to say.

Though this is merely a forgotten land, there is wisdom in the saying, ’Better be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.’

Here, they are royalty, enjoying a privileged life.
