Chapter 349: They are the most important people to me
"Perhaps it's because the author's protagonist is already excellent in the eyes of the readers, but when we personally enter this world, what we see is the most real thing. Everyone has selfish desires, and no one is absolutely perfect. Or perhaps, our arrival has changed things, but everyone has only one goal, and that is to live beautifully in this world."
This is Su Wan's personal opinion. Apart from that, she seems to have no words to comfort herself.
Murong Huai nodded approvingly and continued:
"Tell me about the general plot of the book, and how you've been in this world these years, what you've done, and do you know what my fate is in the book?"
It's okay to talk about what he asked. As for his fate, Su Wan thought about it carefully and said:
"You're just a passing character in the book at best, with only a few appearances. In the original novel, you're a lazy prince, not one to fight or compete, just wanting to be a proper playboy. Your ending wasn't bad, was it? After Murong Sheng became emperor, you took your mother, concubine, and sister to your fiefdom on the border. You're also the only prince to have a good ending in the battle for the throne."
Almost all those who went against Murong Sheng had no good end. Some died, some were disabled, and some even spent the rest of their lives in prison.
Murong Huai felt a little sad when he heard about his own fate. What good could a fiefdom on the border be? It was just a way to save his life.
But when he heard the last sentence, Murong Huai suddenly shuddered.
What do you mean he was the only prince to have a happy ending? Does that mean all his brothers had bad endings?
"What's the point of that? He's so cruel and ruthless. If he becomes emperor, I won't have a good life. I always targeted him in the military camp and stole his limelight."
"Don't be impatient. Let me tell you the direction of the original book, and then you can analyze it slowly." Su Wan asked him to be patient.
The plot of the original book is the growth line from Gu Yue's perspective, the love story with Murong Sheng, and the efforts made by the two to climb to a higher position.
This requires mentioning some of the main characters in the book, such as the vicious female supporting role Su Wan in the early stages, who is used as a contrast to highlight the good qualities of the heroine.
Jiang Yu, the tool man, is pulled out for a stroll when he is useful, and is put on ice when he is no longer useful. He is always the springboard for the heroine's reversal. The rest of the time, he is either fighting and slapping the faces of the female supporting characters, or having a sweet romance with the male protagonist. He is so sticky that you can write dozens of chapters about him.
Of course, as the second male lead, Jiang Yu is inferior to the male lead in every way, but in Su Wan's heart, Jiang Yu's character is invincible.
The five brothers of the Su family are also complete tools. They seem to have no independent thoughts. They only know how to pamper Gu Yue, support her, and use her.
Su Wan now thinks that it was all the author's deliberate character creation. In her writing, the characters have lost their souls and the right to express their own emotions. Instead, if she makes him angry, he has to be angry.
Maybe all paper people are like this, so only when you enter this world and come into contact with it, you will see the real people, some good and some bad, with their own thoughts and joys and sorrows.
Murong Sheng was able to ascend the throne smoothly because of the help of these people.
Gu Yue provides him with financial resources, Jiang Yu provides him with troops, Su Jing negotiates for him in the court, and Su Chen is an emotionless killer.
Su Yun and Su Yi were just the icing on the cake, adding a few more layers of brilliance to Gu Yue.
By the middle and late stages of the novel, the character of Su Wan has already died, and everything exists for Gu Yue.
Murong Huai is a cannon fodder, used to carry out the plot. He is pulled out when needed, and each appearance is described in no more than 300 words.
He is a fool prince, and his existence is only to highlight Murong Sheng's wisdom.
After hearing the rest, Murong Huai was so angry that he almost died. Why was Murong Sheng supposed to be so cool and awesome? He was just an ordinary cannon fodder. It was so unfair.
"I finally understand. I'm dispensable in the book. The only reason I got a happy ending is because I'm a complete idiot and pose no threat. You're portrayed as a vicious female supporting character, with no choice but to try to save yourself and redeem yourself. Listening to what you've said, I realize it wasn't easy for you either. You even straightened some crooked teeth with your bare hands."
The crooked teeth he mentioned probably refer to Su Jing's future, Su Yun's deformed emotions, and the fate of Jiang Yu, the tool man.
"It's okay, mainly because I have a God's perspective, otherwise who knows what it would look like now!" Su Wan shrugged. Fortunately, she had a golden finger.
Others use space systems when traveling through time, but she has a God's perspective when traveling through books. That's pretty good, and she is content.
"That's true, but I think that since these paper people like us have souls, then in our own eyes, we are the protagonists. Now the plot is ruined as you said, and I also changed the plot. To tell you the truth, when I first accepted the fact of time travel, I just thought that I couldn't be so idle. I had to plan something for myself. That's why I wanted to join the army and fight Murong Sheng. Now my popularity has overshadowed him, but I didn't expect that I would bring his NPC to my side."
The NPCs he was referring to were Jiang Yu and Su Chen. When he first saw their performance on the battlefield and their impressive martial arts skills, out of a man's normal admiration for them, he wanted to make friends with them. Unexpectedly, these friends he made with sincere efforts turned out to be the main characters in the book.
"You mean Jiang Yu and Su Chen, right? I'm warning you, although we come from the same place, they are both very important to me in this world. You are not allowed to use them to hurt them."
Su Wan would not be blinded by excitement and ignore even his own brother and the person he likes.
Murong Huai shrugged after hearing this:
"Hey, so I, a model citizen of the 21st century who received twelve years of compulsory education and four years of education at a prestigious university, seem so despicable in your eyes, right?"
Seeing his accusing look, Su Wan burst out laughing.
She also understood what Murong Huai meant. His original decision was simply to fight for himself and make some plans. After all, as a man who traveled through time from the 21st century and became a prince, how could he not have some ambition and pursuit?
Moreover, Murong Huai is a modern man, so his insights and strategies are naturally better than those of the ancients.
"No, no, I understand what you mean, but you and Murong Sheng are now on opposite sides, so you have to be careful. Now you are one of his opponents, the kind that can pose a threat. You never know when he might trick you." He wants to fight for the throne, can Su Wan stop him?
My current identity is legitimate, okay?
