Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Chapter 124 Later Generations Side Story

When Li Yinyin reached the end of her lifespan, she closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she was surprised to find that she was not in the divine space.

The white wall and the air conditioner facing her left Li Yinyin somewhat bewildered.

"I'm back?"

"Yinyin, what are you doing?" Her roommate, seeing her dazed look, came over with some concern. "You didn't just fall asleep under the air conditioner, did you? If the auntie finds out, she'll definitely scold you!"

Li Yinyin immediately recognized the girl in front of her. She was currently in her university dormitory in 3024, and the person in front of her was her roommate and childhood friend, Xu Yao.

Li Yinyin spoke a beat late: "Yaoyao, don't tell my mom. Otherwise, I'll get slapped twice by her."

“You know you’ll get a beating from Mom if you sleep with the air conditioner on,” Xu Yao couldn’t help but pinch Li Yinyin’s cheek. “Don’t do that again.”

Li Yinyin quickly nodded in agreement.

Seeing that she was still a little confused, Xu Yao urged, "The live stream is about to start, why don't you hurry up and turn on your computer? The event you love to stream is about to begin, aren't you eager to win some merchandise?"

Aibo? Li Yinyin was a beat late in the morning when she remembered. Oh right, in this world, she was currently obsessed with the male celebrities in the voice chat room. Although her family was wealthy, she was still relatively restrained in spending money on gifts. Tonight at eight o'clock was Aibo's anniversary event, and there were prizes to be won based on the level of her light sticks. Of course, she wouldn't miss it.

She turned on her computer and, seeing that the event hadn't started yet, casually scrolled through short videos for a while, when she saw an unexpected message.

[The historical drama "The Secret History of Chang Le," with an investment of 80 million yuan and starring popular actress XXX and popular male stars XX and XXX, will premiere tonight at 8:30 PM on Douzi TV. The first female emperor of all time will be there for you!]

"The Secret History of Chang Le? What kind of nonsense is this that can actually be broadcast?" Xu Yao walked up to Li Yinyin, furious. "XXX has absolutely no acting skills, and he's got a plastic surgery face, yet he dares to play Emperor Taizong of Ming!"

"And these few popular actors are all made up by makeup, styling, and lighting. They're so ugly, they have no bearing or demeanor at all, yet they play the roles of Chu Guijun, Minister Jing, General Xu, and Prime Minister Mu—handsome men whose reputations have been definitively established in history!"

"They spent 80 million, but for costumes and props like that, 8 million would be too much! These bastards really aren't afraid of being criticized!"

"So what if it's a historical romance drama? And this 'Secret History of Chang Le'? Aren't they afraid that the descendants of the Li family will come looking for trouble? They're just keeping a low profile, they're not dead!"

Before Li Yinyin could even react to this rapid-fire chatter, Xu Yao had already returned to her computer, opened a familiar webpage, and launched into her own battle.

Li Yinyin clicked on the comments section of the short video and saw a peaceful atmosphere, with everyone expressing their anticipation for the older brothers and sisters. It was clearly a fan-controlled commentary.

She frowned, then swiped down and saw a live stream showing people visiting an exhibition.

[Today, our tour of various countries has reached Yunzhou, so I'll play the role of tour guide and lead you all on a sightseeing tour. Ahem, we've now arrived at the Ming Dynasty, the country with the largest territory in history. Initially, the Ming Dynasty's territory wasn't large, but in just a few decades, it incorporated the entire Central Plains into its domain. Eventually, its territory stretched from the Liberation Sea in the west to the frigid north, and from overseas islands in the east and west. You could say that even with the fastest horse, running at top speed for a month, you still couldn't reach the end of the Ming Dynasty.]

[Logically, with such a vast territory, governing it should have been extremely difficult. Yet, despite this immense territory, the Ming Dynasty ruled for over seven hundred years. A crucial figure in this success must be mentioned—Emperor Taizong of Ming, Li Yinyin.]

Li Yinyin raised an eyebrow and clicked on the link. Almost instantly, countless comments flooded the screen.

[My goddess! My goddess!!!]

[When I went to the exhibition and saw the portrait of this goddess, I was absolutely speechless. She's so beautiful and talented; I just want to be green with envy and wish I could be the Consort Chu!]

The host, with a keen eye, noticed a comment: "This guy named 'Goddess Yinyin, I'm Marrying' is right. Being good-looking is just the least noteworthy advantage of Emperor Taizong. But today, our first step in viewing the exhibition can start with this painting."

After speaking, the host turned the camera around, and almost instantly, the screen was flooded with comments saying "beauty overload".

This forced Li Yinyin to temporarily turn off the bullet comments so she could properly look at the pictures on the screen.

This painting looks somewhat familiar.

Li Yinyin thought for a while before she remembered that this painting was personally created for her by Chu Ziran, who had already gained expertise in painting Western Regions art when she was forty years old.

To be honest, it has been filtered with beauty mode.

After all, Li Yinyin was already forty years old at that time. She had given birth and served in the war. Although she held great power, the inevitable signs of aging had indeed taken their toll. Although her appearance hadn't changed much, her temperament and eyes were completely different from when she was young. But this painting of Chu Ziran preserved her most beautiful appearance to the greatest extent possible.

She remembered asking him about it back then, but Chu Ziran's answer was that that's how he saw her.

Li Yinyin's eyes flickered slightly, and she had to admit that Chu Ziran had indeed remained unchanged until death.

In the brief moment she was distracted, the anchor had moved from the portrait to her past life.

"As the first female emperor, Emperor Taizong established the renowned Golden Crow Army, the first female army, and led it to conquer ten kingdoms, including the Jiang and Shu kingdoms, which were powerful states comparable to the Ming Dynasty at the time. Besides her impeccable military prowess, Emperor Taizong also made significant achievements in civil administration. She reformed the imperial examination system, selecting officials with specialized skills. During her reign, the Ming Dynasty developed the earliest pearl farming techniques, promoted the cultivation of many excellent crops, and advanced pig farming techniques. The affiliated research institutes also developed hybrid rice with higher yields and pest resistance, achieving the initial goal of ensuring food for the people. She also…"

Li Yinyin propped her head up with her hand, feeling drowsy. Did she really do so many things in the past?

Thinking about it carefully, it does seem to exist?

"ah!"

Xu Yao suddenly screamed, startling Li Yinyin so much that she almost bumped her face on the table.

"Yao Yao, what's wrong?"

"Yinyin!" Xu Yao rushed over and grabbed her hand, her smile stretching from ear to ear. "Let me tell you, just now, just now, several of the lead actors in that drama 'The Secret History of Chang Le' have been implicated in legal troubles. The director crossed the line and has now been sent to jail."

"Hahaha, the Li family is still the best. They're ruthless and don't talk much."

"Didn't you refuse to listen to advice and insist on filming and releasing it online? You even said something about the new era and the new society, that you should dare to do anything. Fine, fine, I won't waste any more words with you. Once you've finished filming, I'll physically resolve all your worries!"

"Hahaha, Yinyin, I'm so happy! You have no idea, those bastards even released a promotional video before, saying that the Empress is stringing this person along with that person, and that she's going to film a super romantic drama. They're welcome to go and entertain themselves by sewing machines!"

Ding Dong!

"Huh?" Xu Yao took out her phone and looked at it. "Good heavens, good heavens, a joint statement! In my lifetime, I can't believe I've seen Li, Chu, Mu, Jing, Xu, and Xun all issue statements at the same time. The National Film and Television Review Office has also issued a statement requiring historical dramas to respect historical facts and not to fabricate them at will."

"Okay, I feel great!"

Xu Yao put down her phone, saw that her computer screen was still focused on the page, and quickly patted her: "What time is it? You didn't forget, did you? Your merchandise! Merchandise!"

Li Yinyin hurriedly and clumsily clicked into Aibo's live stream room, and heard a pleasant voice say.

"The next prizes to be drawn are a mousepad with my illustration on it and a figure of Empress Wu Zetian that I bought when I visited the exhibition. She is my favorite Empress Taizong!"

"Let's make this lucky bag available to fans with a fan club level of 15 or higher. I wonder who will be the lucky winner?"
