Quick Transmigration: The Villain Boss is a Bit Cute - Chapter 160
Chapter 160
Wei Jue frowned, “Actually, I don’t want this throne. Just give it to him directly.”
Although he wasn’t happy about handing it over to Qin Ruijing for free, this was the only way to spend more time together.
Besides, the only reason he wanted the throne was to snatch away the things that man had given to Song Qimo—nothing more.
Meanwhile, Qin Ruijing, watching the two of them treat the imperial throne like a cabbage to be tossed back and forth: “…”
“No. The Emperor of Wei must be you,” Su Hua said, leaving no room for argument.
“Fine,” Wei Jue grumbled.
Qin Ruijing: “…”
You two, enough already!
I haven’t even agreed to the merger yet!
De’er, peeking into Qin Ruijing’s thoughts: With the host here, your opinion doesn’t matter.
“Wei Jue will be the emperor, and you’ll be the regent. Aside from the title of emperor, everything else related to the throne will be yours.”
Then, as an afterthought, Su Hua added, “Including the harem of three thousand beauties.”
Qin Ruijing: “…” This is exhausting.
No matter how you looked at it, Su Hua’s proposal was nothing but beneficial for Qin Ruijing.
So, in the end, Qin Ruijing agreed.
Later, when Qin Ruijing wanted to discuss the details of the merger, Su Hua decisively burned the bridge after crossing it.
“Figure it out yourself. I’ll just cooperate on my end. Once everything’s settled, announce that Wei Jue is the emperor. The rest is up to you.”
“…” I feel like I’ve been sold out.
If Qin Ruijing had lived in modern times, he’d recognize Su Hua’s approach as something akin to a CFO.
(T/N: CFO= Chief Financial Officer)
In short, he is a high-end laborer.
Six months after Wei Jue’s ascension, the merger of the two nations was announced, forming the new Wei-Qian Kingdom.
The former Emperor of qian, Qin Ruijing, became the regent, handling all political affairs—including morning court sessions.
As for the merger, the common people were all in favor.
After all, a unified empire meant no more war.
The officials, however, were naturally resistant.
The merger meant a surplus of redundant positions—who would be dismissed became the question.
Qin Ruijing, with his extraordinary methods, spent half a month purging the court of incompetent old ministers and streamlining governance efficiently.
Not long after, based on Su Hua’s intel, Qin Ruijing captured Qin Ruihan, Mu Chengxue, and Qin Ruihan’s troops.
Su Hua was a little stunned when she heard the news.
That day, she knew Mu Chengxue wasn’t actually insane, but since she no longer had her cheat space and couldn’t cause much trouble, Su had her released from the palace.
Who would’ve thought she’d get tangled up with Qin Ruihan again?
Damn, impressive, female lead.
Su Hua still had Mu Chengxue released.
As for Qin Ruihan, he wasn’t executed either—rumor had it Qin Ruijing imprisoned him, subjecting him to endless torment day and night.
The original host’s parents also came looking for her, but after a warning from Su Hua’s people, they slunk back to their hometown in disgrace.
As for Su Hua? She left the palace with Wei Jue.
Bringing along Qiuyun and Xingyi, of course.
After all, only outside could she squander money freely!
Ding. Mission complete. Leave this world?
One day, while Su Hua was buying a tavern for Wei Jue to settle down in, the system’s voice echoed in her mind.
“Stay.”
Su Hua turned to look at Wei Jue.
He was talking to the former owner, the gloom between his brows long gone—now just a graceful young man.
“Damn beggar, scram!”
“Host, the female lead is outside.”
Su Hua, standing by the window, glanced down.
Not far ahead, a ragged beggar with a broken bowl was begging, but everyone she grabbed at shied away like she was poison.
“Qiuyun.”
“Yes?” Qiuyun put down what she was doing and hurried over.
“Miss, what is it?”
“Give that beggar some money.”
Qiuyun followed her gaze and nodded.
“Got it.”
Qiuyun was generous—handing over a tael of silver.
Given the local cost of living, that could last two months with frugal use.
As if sensing Su Hua’s gaze, the beggar looked up.
Her face was too filthy to recognize, but her pupils shrank in shock before she hurriedly averted her eyes, limping away from Su Hua’s sight.
“How did she end up like this?”
Even without her cheat space, Mu Chengxue was still a modern woman.
Making a life for herself in ancient times shouldn’t have been hard.
“The female lead brought it upon herself.”
As it spoke, the system projected Mu Chengxue’s later experiences.
Only then did Su Hua learn that after leaving the palace, Mu Chengxue hadn’t given up her hatred.
Instead, she went to the border and seduced several generals.
Quite a few actually fell for her and were willing to rebel for her sake—but before their plans could take shape, her habit of stringing multiple men along was exposed.
She had built a pure, pitiful persona, but once the truth came out, she instantly became a slut in their eyes.
The generals, played for fools, weren’t about to let her off.
They sent her to be a camp prostitute.
Mu Chengxue refused, of course, and escaped—but injured her leg in the process.
Too crippled to work as a maid for wealthy families, she resorted to begging along the way.
“…”
Su Hua turned.
“Done talking?”
“Yeah.”
Wei Jue walked over and took her hand.
“Let’s settle down here.”
“Okay.”
Wei Jue’s health was poor, and he only lived to fifty before passing away.
After his death, Su Hua also left the body and departed the world.
Later Generations
Historical assessments of Wei Jue, the first emperor of Wei-Qian, varied widely—as did those of his only empress, Su Hua.
Some said Wei Jue didn’t even want the throne for her sake.
Others claimed Empress Su Hua was a fox spirit reincarnated.
Opinions differed, but one thing remained undeniable: when later generations recorded their love story, it was always with envy.
Hold your hand, grow old with you.
The most beautiful love is just like this.
“Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. Please check the task panel.”

Su Hua glanced at the points.
“How many more do you need to level up?”
“One million,” De’er said excitedly.
“…” I kind of regret asking.
“Fine, go ahead.”
“Thank you, host!”
Deduct one million points for system upgrade?
“Yes.”
My heart is bleeding….

“Host.”
Su Hua stared at a white, indistinct blob that nearly blended into the air—shaped vaguely like a piece of poop.
“De’er?”
“Host, it’s me!”
The white blob wriggled excitedly.
Even without a face, Su Hua could sense its joy.
Well, at least it’s not just a cold electronic device anymore.
Maybe that million points was worth it.
