QWTBWASIFOC Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Upright Military General x Eccentric Prince 02

Although the original Gu Changli was born safely, Consort Chen’s death during childbirth led to Emperor Liang’s hatred for this child. He not only confined him to the Cold Palace but also forbade palace servants from taking care of him.

Emperor Liang wanted this child to survive or perish on his own!

Because his most beloved woman had died because of him, he even named him Liang Jue.

——Jue, meaning the “jue” of despair and dead end!

Emperor Liang wanted this mother-killing son to live in despair forever, constantly experiencing the despair he felt when he lost his love.

The original Gu Changli, still in swaddling clothes, was abandoned in the Cold Palace. Only Yang, the nanny Consort Chen brought from the Jiang family outside the palace, followed the original Gu Changli into the Cold Palace to care for him.

The two master and servant, with no one to care for them, lived a bumpy life, and five years passed unknowingly.

Until one day, the Jiang family outside the palace sent a message to Nanny Yang, instructing her to poison and eliminate the Ninth Prince because the Jiang family was going to send their second young lady, who was about to come of age, into the palace as a concubine, and naturally, they had to eliminate the Ninth Prince, who was a stain.

The original Gu Changli was not only disliked by his biological father, Emperor Liang, but also by the Jiang family.

A discarded child in the Cold Palace was destined to have no future.

Imperial Tutor Jiang, as Consort Chen’s father, could not possibly follow a Ninth Prince with no hope of ascending the throne. Moreover, the Jiang family’s future could not be buried with Consort Chen and her son. They had to find a way to change the current situation.

Therefore, Imperial Tutor Jiang decided to offer his second daughter.

But before that, he had to uproot the troublesome Ninth Prince and completely crush him in the Cold Palace.

Thus came the subsequent message.

Nanny Yang, who received the family head’s message, hesitated again and again but still poisoned the Ninth Prince.

Although she had meticulously cared for the original Gu Changli for five whole years, her original intention in doing so was that Imperial Tutor Jiang had instructed her to do so.

Imperial Tutor Jiang initially thought that Emperor Liang would eventually take Consort Chen’s son out of the Cold Palace, waiting only for Emperor Liang to calm down, but he was ultimately mistaken.

Emperor Liang hated the Ninth Prince and wished him dead.

In this way, Imperial Tutor Jiang naturally couldn’t keep the burden that was his cheap grandson.

Moreover, when the late Emperor’s sons were vying for the throne, the investment target he chose was Prince Rui, and he married his eldest daughter, Jiang Zhuyan, to Prince Rui as his wife.

Unfortunately, Prince Rui was outmaneuvered and defeated by Emperor Liang.

This led to Emperor Liang seizing Jiang Zhuyan from the defeated Prince Rui after he ascended the throne, and even exterminating Prince Rui.

The Jiang family had originally chosen the wrong side, but fortunately, Emperor Liang deeply loved Jiang Zhuyan, and they escaped a disaster, becoming important ministers heavily relied upon by Emperor Liang in the early days of his reign.

It was a pity that Consort Chen was deeply in love with Prince Rui, which not only harmed herself and the Ninth Prince but also put the Jiang family in an extremely awkward position again.

The Jiang family’s sons were becoming less and less valued, and only Imperial Tutor Jiang remained in the court.

Forced by reality, Imperial Tutor Jiang had to find another way out.

The second daughter, who resembled Jiang Zhuyan, became Imperial Tutor Jiang’s opportunity to reverse the situation.

But he had to clear the way for his second daughter in advance; otherwise, he would only be sacrificing another daughter.

But he didn’t expect that the poisoned Ninth Prince didn’t die; it was Nanny Yang who died.

Speaking of this, one cannot do without the efforts of the consorts.

Having personally experienced Consort Chen’s exclusive favor, none of the consorts in the various palaces were willing to see another Consort Chen emerge. Therefore, they conveniently destroyed the Jiang family’s plan.

After this incident, the Jiang family completely declined.

Even Imperial Tutor Jiang had to resign and return home under the squeeze of the father-brothers of those consort families.

As for the Ninth Prince, who had been poisoned by Nanny Yang, he survived with the help of Consort Jing.

The reason Consort Jing took action was also very simple.

What Emperor Liang wanted was for the Ninth Prince to survive or perish on his own, not to die in their schemes.

Who knew if the Ninth Prince was poisoned to death, whether Emperor Liang, who deeply loved Consort Chen, would still go on a killing spree like he did when Consort Chen died!

You ask why they were so afraid?

Anyone who had experienced Emperor Liang’s “gaga” killing spree and his cold treatment after Consort Chen’s death would understand.

Damn it! Who knew what Emperor Liang was thinking?

Since Consort Chen’s death, Emperor Liang had not entered the harem, focusing all his attention on court affairs. He listened to no one and loved no beauty!

If Emperor Liang didn’t have many princes and princesses, he would definitely have been impeached by the ministers.

Okay! This had happened before, but all the impeachers were beaten with boards. Emperor Liang simply didn’t listen to the nonsense of the officials.

Over time, no one in the front court or the harem dared to say anything.

The Ninth Prince, who had saved his life, still lived in that empty and desolate Cold Palace. He no longer had the nagging Nanny Yang by his side, only himself. The palace maids, eunuchs, and guards all stayed far away from here.

Emperor Liang’s eight sons and two daughters would never set foot here.

After all, their mothers would never allow their children to run in front of the Ninth Prince.

If they accidentally touched Emperor Liang’s nerves, the consequences awaiting them would be eternal damnation, and their maternal families wouldn’t be able to save them.

Because of this, the Ninth Prince grew up alone into a taciturn and indifferent young man.

He didn’t communicate with people and often stared at the sky.

Until he was nineteen years old, when he was charged with harming Consort Rou, stripped of his imperial status, and expelled from the palace, this young man who had been trapped for half his life gained freedom.

But no one knew that this was what the original Gu Changli deliberately did.

Speaking of this, Changli unearthed another, longer memory in the original Gu Changli’s mind, or rather, that memory was more accurately the plot of the original book.

The original Gu Changli deliberately allowed himself to be demoted to a commoner and leave the palace because he had already lived a life, and his previous life had been full of ups and downs and very bad.

He didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes, so he withdrew.

However, the original Gu Changli, having left the palace, lost his goal and only felt that the world was vast but there was nowhere to go. Thus, he actively gave up the precious opportunity to be reborn, and the original Gu Changli’s soul was still mired in the suffering of his previous life and could not be freed, which is why there was this heart’s desire mission.

The original Gu Changli had no rigid requirements for the mission, only hoping that the mission taker could spend the rest of his life as he pleased, without having to worry about the past.

Changli sighed softly, “He still can’t think straight.”

The original Gu Changli clearly had a chance to start over, but he was still immersed in the experiences of his previous life, even losing the courage to live to the end.

If he had obtained the opportunity to be reborn, he would definitely have turned things around and changed the regrets of the past.

Unfortunately, he would never be able to be reborn.

Canglan World is a Greater Thousand Worlds with complete laws, unlike novel-derived worlds like this, which don’t have the Heavenly Dao laws to make up for the defects of time reversal.

He could clearly feel that the laws of this world were incomplete, especially the law of time, coupled with the original Gu Changli’s special protagonist status, which allowed him to be reborn.

That’s right, the original Gu Changli was the male protagonist of this world.

This poor little Ninth Prince, who lost his mother at birth and was hated by his father, had never felt the warmth and kindness that the human world brought him from childhood to adulthood.

From birth to death, the original Gu Changli’s life was full of tragedy.

As a child, he grew up in the Cold Palace, with no relatives or friends. The only things that accompanied him were the withered trees and weeds in the courtyard. When he grew a little older, he witnessed the battle of the eight princes with his own eyes.

First, the First Prince and the Second Prince fought, then the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince fought, and finally the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Princes engaged in a crazy melee.

The eight princes fought and fought until they were all gone, and the only surviving prince was the Ninth Prince. Thus, Emperor Liang reluctantly passed the throne to him before his death.

The original Gu Changli, who had no intention of becoming emperor, became the Emperor of Liang.

This also meant the official start of the novel’s plot, and the highly abusive plots belonging to the original Gu Changli, the abused male protagonist, came one after another, slamming into the original Gu Changli, who was now the emperor.

The original Gu Changli ascended the throne at the age of 24 and died at the age of 34, having only been emperor for ten years, but it left a series of unhealable scars in the original Gu Changli’s heart.

Moreover, the original Gu Changli committed suicide after being completely desperate.

The original Gu Changli’s miserable life happened to correspond to the original intention of the name [Liang Jue] that his father gave him, walking down the dead end of life when he was completely despairing of this world.

As the name suggested, he was destined to end in despair.

It’s just that Changli has now become this abused protagonist and will naturally not allow the tragedy in the original Gu Changli’s memory to be staged again, and no one will be able to force him to commit suicide.

Those who want to abuse him have to consider whether their bones are enough for him to burn!

Dark and windy night, a time to kill and set fires.

This is what Changli, who had once become a ferocious beast, was talking about.
