Qu Dubian, who relied on acting like a green tea and feigning pity in his previous life, getting furiously voted into debut by fans, transmigrated one day to become a young prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty whose birth mother died early.
Not only did he have only 3 days left to live, but he was also bound to a [Disease Simulator] to extend his lifespan.
There were three ways to increase his lifespan:
Practice martial arts and sign in daily, increasing lifespan by one day.
Experience diseases, write papers, submit to the system to help the system archive and upgrade, increasing lifespan by three months.
Make friends, achieve 60 favorability points, increasing lifespan by one year.
Qu Dubian understood one point: to gain favorability, it's better to offer help in times of need than to add icing to the cake.
A little eunuch almost freezing to death? Save him!
His cheap emperor father, the unloved young master of the Minister's household, the lonely and bored imperial consorts in the harem, the only heir to a Marquis's estate, the enemy prince hostage...
Qu Dubian transformed into a filial (?) son / close friend / companion for chats / playmate / confidant. His steadily increasing lifespan made him immensely pleased.
The [Disease Simulator] was even more of a divine artifact to avoid the terrifying succession struggle!
To completely withdraw from the struggle for the throne, Qu Dubian even went wild on the battlefield, bringing back his elder sister, the princess who went on a political marriage, and then simulated himself as a cripple with his martial arts completely abolished and eyes blind.
From now on, he could happily lie flat on this military merit that could protect him for a lifetime, living out his days in peace and stability.
This wave was a huge win!
But alas—
The Director of the Eastern Depot's eyes were sinister: "Our life was saved by the little prince. Investigate for me, who dared to lay hands on him on the battlefield!"
The newly appointed top scholar looked sickly: "My life's planning was only for the wise lord in my heart. Since the wise lord is in darkness, I am unwilling to accept an official position."
The current young Marquis, General of Zhenbei: "With imperial power so oppressive, why does Your Highness still harbor kindness?"
His adoptive mother, who usually stayed out of worldly affairs: "My son suffered such a calamity. If this consort remains indifferent, how can I be a mother?!"
The imperial consorts in the harem gathered in the Cining Palace, their red eyes full of sorrow, making the Emperor unable to express his bitter feelings.
For a time, all the princes felt insecure, schemes churned in the capital, and people were filled with dread.
Qu Dubian, who only wanted to live peacefully: "..."
"Save, save me!!"
#They all want me to ascend the throne, but I just want to live peacefully :( #
"Wild geese fly in the cold beyond the frontier, a long song for Qu Dubian."
