Ministers Begging Me to Ascend the Throne Novel

Zhao Yao, reincarnated as Emperor Wu of Zhou's youngest son, found himself neglected in the imperial family. To navigate the deadly struggle for succession, he adopted a careful waiting strategy. Upon reaching adulthood, he received a noble title, but his father subsequently exiled him to the remote and impoverished region of Lingnan. Rather than despair at his exile, Zhao Yao pursued ambitious development projects. He prioritized infrastructure construction and agricultural production, gradually transforming Lingnan's fortunes. What had once been a desolate exile destination blossomed into a thriving, prosperous territory under his capable administration. Just as Zhao Yao settled into a peaceful existence in Lingnan, an unexpected delegation of court ministers arrived after traveling vast distances to present him with an astonishing request: they urged him to claim the throne. Bewildered by this sudden turn of events, Zhao Yao could only question whether these officials had taken leave of their senses.
