Chapter 318: Sadomasochism (Part 23)
"Your Majesty, what do you think the little princess next door is doing?"
As a veteran spectator, Huoshui held a handful of virtual melon seeds in his hand, cracking them while jumping out to show his presence.
Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment.
The little princess next door? The heroine of this story world, Chu Zhao? Gu Qingcheng didn't know the specific plot, she only had an outline of the story.
However, Gu Qingcheng is smart.
She thought about it for a moment and found the answer, "The man with the evil smile appeared?"
Chu Zhao was reborn and came back, and took the initiative to attack back and torture the Ninth Prince, but Gu Qingcheng, who had traveled through time, escaped.
The plot seems to have gone off track, but for now, the little princess is still the heroine of this world, and the main storyline remains unchanged.
For example, her destined "male protagonist"! Gu Qingcheng remembered clearly that there was an evil man in the story outline, and he also said something like "My son and I are waiting for you at home."
The most direct feeling these words gave Gu Qingcheng was that he was the man hidden behind Chu Zhao.
Chu Zhao's "career" should be helped by him.
If Chu Zhao became the empress, he would be the emperor's husband.
If Chu Zhaoruo is the regent princess, then she is the prince consort.
The evil man is willing to stay behind the scenes because of his deep love.
Put all the glory and honor on his wife.
Such deep love finally healed Chu Zhao's heart that was hurt in his previous life, and completely won Chu Zhao's love.
In the end, because of his love, Chu Zhao gave up his previous hatred, reconciled with himself and the whole world, and the family of three lived together happily.
...Okay, Gu Qingcheng admitted it.
After reading too many online stories like this, and with a mentally retarded person chattering in her ears, she became too melodramatic.
With just one small detail, she can make up a love online novel full of loopholes!
Why is it full of flaws? Because it is impossible.
Throughout history, there are very few men who love beauty but not power.
Even if there is, it is not absolutely just because of "love", but there are many reasons.
Furthermore, a woman who can make a man give up his throne and choose her must be quite outstanding in some aspects.
Chu Zhao?
Well, I won’t say whether she is stupid or not, but her love-brain will not make men feel cherished.
The more a man cannot get something, the more precious it becomes to him.
As for the love-brain, there is an even more unpleasant term - a bootlicker! For love, everything can be abandoned, even the self.
Will a man be touched? He will think: Wow, this woman loves me so much that she has no shame. I am so touched! I must treat her well!
This is just a woman's wishful thinking, okay?
Men only think that they are capable of making women dizzy.
Deep down, men will subconsciously look down on this woman.
The so-called happy ending is nothing but an illusion on the surface.
The truth inside is full of conspiracy and cruelty.
Is there a possibility that the evil man is also using Chu Zhao? "Damn! Your Majesty, you are too amazing. You even thought of this person?"
Huoshui had no idea what Gu Qingcheng was complaining about deep in her soul. She was amazed that Gu Qingcheng had guessed the new male protagonist of this world based on just a story synopsis.
The melon seeds in my hand were about to drop out of shock! "That's right! The evil man has indeed appeared. His name is Lu Yan, and he is the young genius of the Yu Dynasty."
"At the age of three, he could write poetry; at the age of five, he could write prose; at the age of nine, he became famous for a piece of parallel prose."
The Yu Dynasty was a time of flourishing literature, and the status of civil officials in the court was higher than that of military generals.
The young man was a genius with great literary talent, so Emperor Feng directly summoned him to the court.
He entered the Hanlin Academy at the age of fifteen and entered the Zhongshu at the age of twenty, becoming the youngest prime minister in the history of the Feng Dynasty.
With another opportunity, he would be appointed prime minister by Emperor Feng and become a powerful official second only to the emperor.
And the "opportunity" has arrived—the little princess Chu Zhao!
"Chu Zhao has developed ambitions and wants to gain more power."
"But she is an expert in romance, but a layman in government."
"However, the little princess is also self-aware. She knows that she is not cut out for this, so she took the initiative to seek external help."
"So, she found Lu Yan... Tsk tsk, the little princess is now 'negotiating' with Lu Yan."
Huoshui was doing two things at once, watching the scene while sharing it with Gu Qingcheng.
It is so busy that it is like a badger running wildly in a melon field.
"negotiation?"
Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but find it a little funny.
"What capital does Chu Zhao have? Besides the illusory favor, what else does she have?"
Gu Qingcheng was not looking down on Chu Zhao, but was telling the truth.
Negotiation requires skills, but more importantly, confidence! If you have nothing but your mouth, you will never achieve your goal.
Besides, with Chu Zhao's rank, is she sure she can "persuade" an old fox who became famous at a young age and mixed in the court since she was a teenager? "However, in the original plot, Chu Zhao succeeded! She successfully formed an 'alliance' with Lu Yan."
Huoshui doesn't just keep complaining about Chu Zhao. Occasionally, he would say a few "fair words" for Chu Zhao.
Gu Qingcheng: ...The question is too stupid. I don’t want to answer it.
However, thinking that she could get some useful information from Huoshui, Gu Qingcheng felt that she should not make Huoshui autistic! "You also said that it is the original plot!"
Gu Qingcheng patiently explained her guess to Huoshui, "In the original plot, I didn't travel through time. Although the Ninth Prince is scheming, he hasn't turned evil yet."
"Chu Zhao has been reborn and has come to the post station to seek revenge on the Ninth Prince."
"The Ninth Prince's carriage fell off a cliff and he was seriously injured. Chu Zhao appeared in front of him as his savior."
"Whether the Ninth Prince is grateful or wants to take advantage of the opportunity to cling to a big tree, he directly attaches himself to Chu Zhao."
"Of course, maybe it's also because of the plot. The Ninth Prince was forcibly downgraded from a cold-hearted male protagonist to a deeply affectionate male second who is devoted to the female protagonist."
"According to the plot, the Ninth Prince's intelligence is reduced only because he is unable to resist Chu Zhao. At other times, he is still shrewd and sharp."
"He helped Chu Zhao with his advice and strategies, which enabled Chu Zhao to achieve outstanding results and stand out from the many princes and princesses."
In this way, Chu Zhao gained political capital.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
If she negotiates with Lu Yan again, she will have the confidence, as it will be a strong alliance.
Gu Qingcheng doesn't even need to read the original plot. Just by relying on the settings of a few characters and combining them with the routines of online romance novels, she can infer what the story should have happened.
What a pity! She came through.
The Ninth Prince directly replaced the person.
Furthermore, Gu Qingcheng was far away from Feng Chao and had no direct contact with Chu Zhao at all.
Naturally, Chu Zhao’s halo as the heroine does not have that much influence on Gu Qingcheng.
Without the Ninth Prince, there was no one to plan for Chu Zhao.
The current Chu Zhao not only has no achievements, but has also created a huge mess because of the Ninth Prince falling off a cliff.
Emperor Feng felt sorry for his daughter and was willing to clean up her mess.
But in Emperor Feng's heart, he had already determined that Chu Zhao was a willful little princess.
Rather than some capable royal lady.
As for training her as an heir, he had never even thought about it! Chu Zhao, who had nothing, was going to negotiate with an old fox who was destined to be a powerful official?
Haha, Gu Qingcheng dared to bet that Lu Yan could scheme against her until nothing was left of her.
However, Chu Zhao still felt that her negotiations with Lu Yan were going very smoothly, and she would definitely be able to use Lu Yan to become the most honorable and powerful woman in Feng Dynasty.
Huoshui: ...I shouldn't show off to a big shot like Gu Qingcheng! I 've been "spoiled"! Although the subsequent plot has not happened yet, for some reason, Huoshui believes Gu Qingcheng's "prediction" very much.
Woohoo, is a spoiled melon still a melon? How can I eat it? Gu Qingcheng ignored Huoshui's crying and silently memorized the name Lu Yan.
Gu Qingcheng couldn’t take care of Feng Chao and the like for the time being and could only investigate secretly.
The most important thing for her at the moment is to acquire more capital as soon as possible.
It is not enough to just be a favored concubine and a beloved son.
When she was complaining about Chu Zhao just now, Gu Qingcheng had said that pampering was too empty and too passive! If others are willing, you can pamper them a little.
But if others are unhappy, you can take it all back.
If Gu Qingcheng wants that position, she must have real strength!
And for now, the best way is marriage.
"Ahem! Your Majesty, Queen of Heaven, you, you want to be a Phoenix Man?"
Huoshui had just become autistic and wanted to roll into a corner to calm down his injured CPU.
Unexpectedly, Gu Qingcheng came up with a "marriage arrangement".
Gu Qingcheng: ...Isn’t this obvious?
Why did she look for Huo Wuniang? In addition to making a big fanfare for the Ninth Prince's return, it was also for the next plan.
The Huo family also needs an ally.
Gu Qingcheng and Huo Wuniang hit it off immediately and each got what they wanted.
The marriage is a natural thing, but Huoshui, this little idiot, actually looks surprised.
"No! I mean, if you do that, you'll be 'clash' with Lu Yan next door!"
The disaster was jumping around in the sea of consciousness, seeming a little excited.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Overlapping scenes? Political marriages all follow this pattern, how did it get linked to overlapping scenes?
Oh, she is different from the one next door.
For example, the heroine next door is a self-righteous love-brained person.
But Huo Wuniang was very calm. She was a true noble lady who knew the truth that "any man can be her husband".
love?
Ha, how can your family and your parents be more important?
Cooperation is cooperation. If the cooperation is pleasant, it can be embellished with a little love.
If you fail in the end, it's just because you made a wrong move, and the winner is the king or the loser is the bandit.
We are all adults now, we should pay for our own choices instead of blaming love out of grief and anger.
What do you mean I love you? I am sincere to you, but you don't love me. You only care about my family background !
I love you, but I lost my household register and even my family tree.
You shameful scumbag!
Please, a marriage between people of equal status is essentially an exchange of interests and the integration of resources. Why do you have to bring love into it?
