The Cannon Fodder in Quick Transmigration Refuses the Usual Path

Chapter 614: The Cannon-fodder Noble Consort Who Failed in the Succession Struggle 26 (Side Story Forum 1)

#Exposing Those Incredibly Miraculous Feats in History That Sound Unbelievable#

Recently, a post on a certain domestic forum quickly went viral and was pushed to trending at an extremely fast pace.

No other reason, simply because a name extremely familiar to everyone appeared in the middle of this post, as expected.

The famously lucky dog in history, Empress Xiaozhaoyuan, Shen Yue.

Oh, and that epic-level miracle, Emperor Xuanming Xiao Qi, who clearly possessed first-rate skills in statecraft and governance, yet ended up being remembered in history for his "love-addled brain."

Waking up to find the message notification on his hand already showing 99+, the original poster: "..."

"Wahahaha, so many messages! As expected, when it comes to these two, everyone is far from unfamiliar!"

First floor: "Of course! It's a medical miracle!"

"Haha! After all, it's the legendary 'love-addled brain' who, because he couldn't let go of his 'innocent and straightforward' true love, miraculously survived a brush with death, stubbornly held on for over thirty years, ultimately clinging to life until seventy. It's said that right before death, he was still clutching his dear empress's hand, unwilling to let go..."

"There are many oddities in history, but honestly, judging by how this oddity's degree is such that even in modern times, it's still listed as one of the top ten legendary mysteries in the medical field, you know its gold content!"Second floor: "Pfft, what kind of legend? The influence of a love-addled brain?"

"That's way too awesome. After all, this is the one who stubbornly outlasted a sickly, frail emperor who was traditionally short-lived and had poor health, turning him into a longevity expert, haha...

The key is, it was under ancient conditions too. Tsk!"

Just ask, if this isn't awesome, then what is?

Can't even imagine, to what extent must he have loved her!

Two words: miracle!

Third floor: "Laughs, not just later generations. It's said that at the time, all the civil and military officials, plus Emperor Jingtai himself, were all afraid that this old man, the emperor's maternal grandfather, the old emperor, would 'return from the dead' again!"

"After all, this wasn't the first time something like this happened, hahahaha..."

Fourth floor: "..."

"Hahaha *hiccup*~ Not the first time... uh uh uh, bro, why does this sound so funny, yet also so heartbreaking!"

Fifth floor: "Uh, isn't it heartbreaking? Especially the first time. That one cry literally cost Emperor Jingtai twenty-five years of his reign. If this one hadn't been able to hold on, I'm afraid even the imperial throne would have been messed up by the old man's antics!"

"Twenty-five years as crown prince, still crown prince in his forties. If it were him, he'd definitely cry out, 'How can there be a forty-year-old crown prince under heaven!'"

Sixth floor: "Hahaha! A forty-year-old crown prince, and one with a naturally short-lived gene at that, that's truly tragic! I reckon Emperor Jingtai probably even secretly wondered in the middle if he could outlive his old man."

"Luckily he did outlive him. Otherwise, to pass away in the position of crown prince right when he was about to ascend the throne, that would have been too tragic!"

Seventh floor: "That's true, way too tragic!"

Tragic beyond words!

Eighth floor: "Truly tragic +1. It would have been better if there was never any hope, but the result, ahem..."

A single step away, never to have another chance in the future. Just ask, who wouldn't break down!

Ninth floor: "+10086!"

Tenth floor: "Hahaha, truly tragic, but who's to blame? After all, the one who kicked away his imperial throne with one foot, no, one hand, was his own dear mother!"

"Reasonably suspecting that the reason the mother-son pair never got along well later was a landmine planted right here!"

Eleventh floor: "Mother, that Beauty Qi, the famously great divine physician of Great Qi? Hahaha, almost forgot, this one is pretty legendary too."

Twelfth floor: "Legendary +1. Speaking of something funny, just yesterday, our history teacher used this person to advise us: when encountering major events, like exams, one must be cautious and calm. Popping champagne halfway is not advisable, haha!"

Thirteenth floor: "Wait, upstairs, are we not possibly having the same history teacher?"

"Ahem, actually, our high school teacher said that too..."

Fourteenth floor: "Ah this, actually, it's not surprising. Who told this example to be too typical and also too unlucky!"

"After all, almost kicking away her son's imperial throne aside, her own position as empress dowager was truly and completely lost. The crown prince's birth mother, living a pitiful, miserable life as a low-ranking beauty for almost her entire life, truly the most precious, highest-value push in history..."

"Of course, that's for herself. For the emperor and that Empress Zhaoyuan, she was truly a great benefactor!"

Fifteenth floor: "Of course it's precious! After all, this one push hardcore extended Emperor Xuanming's lifespan by over thirty years, plus added fifty or sixty years of wonderful life for his romantic rival, Empress Zhaoyuan!"

Sixteenth floor: "Upstairs is so mean, listening makes my heart feel suffocated. But it is indeed the truth, haha *hiccup*..."

"This one push was probably the lifelong nightmare for that Beauty Qi—no, she was posthumously honored as empress dowager after all, though that was several years later, barely counts as empress dowager—was that person's lifelong nightmare!"

"If the 'love' of those two in the later decades was a fairy tale, then for this one, it was undoubtedly a hellish nightmare!"

Probably something she could never get over in her lifetime.

In front of a computer, a night owl young lady typed with flying speed, her eyes bright and spirited.

Seventeenth floor: "Agree with upstairs. What's this called? A moment of impulse brings a moment of pleasure, but the result is paying the price for a lifetime!"

"If it were me, I'd probably regret it until my heart, liver, and lungs all ached!"

"Watching a sworn enemy live a blissful life, and the important thing is, this bliss was created by oneself. Tsk!"

"Most importantly, even her own son ended up being most filial to this Empress Xiaozhaoyuan. Towards the Shen family, he was even better than towards his own maternal family at one point. Sigh, this one probably would rise from the dead out of anger."

Eighteenth floor: "Indeed!" In front of a computer, another seasoned night owl with huge dark circles under his eyes nodded heavily:

"Historical records as proof! Emperor Jing's filial piety towards this Empress Dowager Shen was evident for all to see! Things like unless they weren't in the same place, paying respects daily without fail, accompanying meals, accompanying practice sessions, the best tributes, good things always sent to the empress dowager's residence first.

Knowing the empress dowager loved swordsmanship, he exhausted the empire's resources to help her find sword manuals, even once promoting the development of Daoism nationwide. Tsk tsk..."

"Tsk, look at my shipping brain. If it weren't for their ages at the time, plus the moving legendary love story preceding it, who knows how many people would have misunderstood!"

Nineteenth floor: "Indeed, the important thing is, these things are recorded in history. It's said that that person specifically wrote a short biography of the empress dowager, recording daily life meticulously and in great detail!"

Even what she loved to eat, her favorite incense, all recorded clearly. Never forgot to take her along wherever he went for fun.

"The greatest filial son in history is no more than this!"

Twentieth floor: "But the person earlier said it wrong, didn't they? Since he wanted to vent his resentment, shouldn't that person resent Empress Dowager Zhaoyuan the most? After all, to some extent, she was the chief culprit who made him endure being crown prince for twenty-five years!"

As expected, it's just political ambition after all!"

Twenty-first floor:

"Uh, that person upstairs, is it possible that it's not that he didn't want to resent her, but because that Empress Zhaoyuan was too, too, too... strong!"
