Chapter 108 A Joke

Qing Imperial Palace, Side Hall of Hanguang Hall
Eunuch Hou personally explained the whole story to Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu did not comment. After waving her hand to dismiss the eunuch, she picked up the book in her hand and started reading. However, the expression on her face finally relaxed a little.

Of course she knew that Concubine Tang was just a pawn, a scapegoat to be used as a shield when necessary.

All she wanted was a result, which was to tell those people who were secretly watching that she was not easy to bully.

Her child is one of Emperor Qing's only three sons, so she will not play by the rules. If necessary, she will directly bring out the Queen Mother, the big Buddha.

As a mother, this is all Concubine Shu can do.

"Child, you shouldn't have been born in an imperial family." Concubine Shu was a literary young woman at heart, and she never thought that she would become a concubine.

It was just fate that Prince Cheng, who was the least likely to become emperor back then, sat on the throne, and she, the concubine of Prince Cheng's son, became the current Noble Consort Shu.

Fang Hao awakened his "true self" consciousness when he felt his whole body burning and his stomach extremely hungry.

The first thing he saw when he woke up was Concubine Shu reading a book beside the bed.

The soft palace lantern shone on the woman's profile, and the scholarly air almost hit her face.

"Mother!" Fang Hao called out almost instinctively.

But the voice was hoarse and almost inaudible.

But the woman who was concentrating on reading immediately turned her gaze to Fang Hao, as if out of the instinct of the mother-son bond.

It seems that Fang Hao has woken up. Concubine Shu finally showed a cold smile and said, "Chengze, you are finally awake."

Fang Hao, who was hungry and thirsty, was bombarded with countless memories of his original body after hearing the word "Chengze" and fainted again.

……

Qing Kingdom, Kyoto, Imperial Concubine Shu, Emperor Qing, Princess...

Everything reminded Fang Hao that he had traveled to the world of “Joy of Life” this time.

The "him" in this life is none other than the tragic character in Joy of Life, the second prince Li Chengze.

Fang Hao had read the novel Joy of Life some years ago, but he couldn't stand Mao Ni's slightly literary style of writing. He couldn't continue reading after seeing the original hero, Fan Xian, go on a diplomatic mission to Northern Qi.

However, he also knew some of the endings of the main characters from jokes on the Internet.

For example, the second prince, to whom he depended, seemed to have failed in his rebellion and committed suicide by taking poison.

Of course, the crown prince, eldest princess and others who also participated in the rebellion did not gain any benefits and all committed suicide.

If Fang Hao wants to live more freely in this world, he must change the original owner's ending of "living like a joke".

"Being alive... is still good!" Without experiencing death once, you cannot appreciate the preciousness of life.

Because of the "mystery in the womb", Fang Hao doesn't want to go through the days of being in a dormant state, neither alive nor dead, again.

"Unfortunately, Joy of Life is still a low-level martial arts world. The four great masters with the highest personal power have shown much higher combat power than the 'Five Great Masters' of the world of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, but they are still not beyond the realm of mortals."

After consciously experiencing death, Fang Hao developed an irresistible desire for immortality.

Unfortunately, in the world of Joy of Life, Fang Hao may not be able to achieve his wish.

"If that's the case, then let's live a carefree life!" Fang Hao thought as he opened his mouth and accepted the food from Concubine Shu. In the original novel, Concubine Shu rarely showed up. Fang Hao only knew that she was a "bookworm" and strongly disapproved of the Second Prince's ambition to seize the throne. She could be said to be a truly sober person.

Unexpectedly, this woman who seemed extremely cold and aloof actually had such a warm side.

In his mind, scenes from childhood came flooding back, and Fang Hao had a deeper understanding of this cold-faced but warm-hearted woman in front of him.

After all, she is his biological mother!
However, Fang Hao had almost no impression of his biological father, Emperor Qing.

As far as Fang Hao could remember, Emperor Qing was always busy with state affairs and Concubine Shu never competed for favor, so he seldom saw his father.

"Emperor Qing is the most hidden one among the four great masters. He is the best in the world in terms of martial arts, strategy, and skill. It is too uncomfortable to be under his nose. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. I have to think of a way to avoid Kyoto, a place of trouble." Fang Hao thought to himself.

In the original novel, the Second Prince was actually the whetstone used by Emperor Qing to sharpen the Crown Prince Li Chengqian. He formed cliques and factions in the court and built up a great power.

He also went against the destined protagonist Fan Xian many times and was often slapped in the face.

It was not until he launched the rebellion that he discovered that the eldest princess had been using him all along, and that her real support was still for the crown prince. His father-in-law Ye Chong had always been Emperor Qing's man, and at the critical moment, he stabbed him in the back.

Until the rebellion failed, he finally realized that the forces gathered around him did not belong to him. He thought he was a chess player, but in fact he was still just a chess piece.

That's why he said that his life was like a huge joke.

Since Fang Hao has traveled to the world of Joy of Life, he naturally will not follow the path of the second prince in the original novel.

Facts have proved that only when you are strong yourself can you be truly strong.

The grandmaster in the world of Joy of Life still cannot achieve immortality.

But he has the personal power to suppress all kinds of disobedience and can even influence the rise and fall of a country, just like what he did in the "World of The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

After finishing the last mouthful of porridge, Fang Hao did something that the Second Prince had never done before.

Fang Hao tilted his head and found a comfortable position in Concubine Shu's arms and fell asleep.

Concubine Shu's body froze. Although she loved her children, she was naturally cold-hearted and seldom had such intimate actions with Fang Hao.

As Fang Hao grew older, even hugging each other became less and less common.

Until today, after experiencing the first assassination in his life, Fang Hao made such a move as if following instinct.

Looking at Fang Hao sleeping soundly, Concubine Shu's lips curved up for a rare moment.

He just had to keep sitting upright, which was really tiring. Seeing this, the palace maid beside him came forward to help Fang Hao go to bed.

But Concubine Shu gently waved at them, signaling everyone to leave.

A loving mother and a filial son, this was the scene that Emperor Qing saw after he walked into the side hall.

"Your Majesty..." Seeing Emperor Qing walk in, Concubine Shu subconsciously stood up.

But Emperor Qing gestured to her to keep quiet.

Then he lowered his voice and said to Concubine Shu: "You two have been frightened today. Take a good rest today. I will come to see you tomorrow."

After saying this, Emperor Qing motioned to Li Yunrui who was following behind him, and they walked out together.
