Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

250 (Suppressing Laughter): [Didn't Your Highness say you wouldn't be Empress?]

Lightning crackled in Akahashi's palm: [Huh? What did you say?]

250 admits defeat: 【No, the Empress can only be you.】

"Hmph, that's more like it. Continue."

250: [Mo Lanshan immediately engaged in palace intrigue upon her arrival, and within months, she had caused the other Mo family daughters to suffer deaths or injuries. Some were sent to the estate, while others, due to their shameful deeds, were poisoned by the Mo family head and died, or were forced to marry into humble families.]

250 flipped through the plot; even the summarized version was still quite thick. It could only try to summarize and read it aloud to Akahoshi:

In short, Mo Lanshan was a master of palace intrigue. Later, she was the only legitimate daughter left in the Mo family, and even the eldest son had to treat her with deference. Most importantly, she had three brothers who unconditionally doted on her.

Mo Lanshan's mother and several brothers knew that she had fallen in love with Mu Zeyu at first sight. Ever since their sister's personality changed, the three young masters of the Mo family have doted on her immensely.

Thus, the Mo family approached the Regent several times, trying to persuade him to marry Moranshan as his queen.

But Mu Zeyu only cared about the people of the Great Jin Dynasty and didn't care much about romance. Or rather, he simply hadn't met anyone who moved him.

250 A fawning smile: "Your Highness, you are definitely someone who can capture the heart of the Immortal Lord."

These words pleased Akahoshi, who generously gave him 250 for a box of gold and silver.

Money-grubber 250 quickly put it away. Besides the points in his account, 250 also had another little treasure trove hidden away.

If Your Highness returns to the Heavenly Realm in the future, it won't have as many opportunities to make money, so of course it needs to hide more money.

Thinking of this, 250 was also glad that it had been captured by His Highness and brought to the small world. Otherwise, it might have followed other hosts on dangerous missions and only gained a pitiful amount of points.

[Hehe, thank you, Your Highness. Your Highness is so handsome, the Immortal Lord will definitely like you very much.]

Akahoshi was so pleased with herself that she even ignored the slight pain in her wound.

He looked through the plot himself, and the notes he compiled were very long.

Mo Lanshan pursued Mu Zeyu relentlessly for half a year. During this time, she became the most talented woman in the capital by memorizing ancient poems.

Because of her exceptional guzheng playing, her rendition of "Ambush from Ten Sides" immediately attracted the attention of several talented scholars and military generals, and even the young emperor was deeply impressed by her.

[Wait, the little emperor? Isn't that me?] Akahira opened his slightly closed eyes, his eyes filled with displeasure.

250: [It's the original body. He's already been thrown into the eighteenth level of hell; he was captured by Bai Er.]

[Oh? What terrible crime did he commit?] Akahoshi closed his eyes again.

250: [The crime is serious; Your Highness will see more as you read on.]

The original owner of Chixing was an absolute jinx. She was forgotten by the late emperor while she was still in her mother's womb, simply because another emperor's beloved concubine, Chenfei, was also pregnant.

Later, the original owner's mother and that Consort Chen gave birth at the same time, and both of them gave birth to princes.

Consort Chen's son is the Eighth Prince, while the original Chi Xing was the Ninth Prince.

The Eighth Prince looked exactly like the Emperor, so the Emperor naturally liked him more. Through the machinations of the other concubines, the original owner of this body and his mother were thrown into the Cold Palace.

When he was six years old, he crawled out of a dog hole and got lost. He almost froze to death in the snow. Mu Zeyu was passing by on his way to a palace banquet and saved him, giving him a bag of pastries.

This is the memory that Chixing mentioned to Mu Zeyu earlier, which is why Chixing used this to bring the two of them closer.

Unfortunately, Mu Zeyu didn't seem to care much.

250: [The original owner also remembered this matter. After he ascended the throne, he also thought about getting closer to Mu Zeyu.]

However, when Mu Zeyu was nine years old, someone searched the Mu family study and found evidence of General Mu's treason. Everyone knew that this was just the emperor appeasing that treacherous minister and taking back military power.

No one dared to speak up. The emperor promised General Mu that he would leave an heir for the Mu family. In order for his son to live, General Mu and his entire family committed suicide by poisoning themselves.

But the emperor wasn't sincere at all. He even wanted to bring nine-year-old Mu Zeyu into the palace to be a eunuch, but Prime Minister Liang stopped him.

After the death of Consort Liang, the daughter of Prime Minister Liang, the emperor felt indebted to the family. Prime Minister Liang took Mu Zeyu away on the condition that he resign from his post and return to his hometown.

The emperor at the time was naturally suspicious and had long been wary of the Liang family.

Prime Minister Liang did as he was told, and the father and son resigned from their official posts, taking the whole family, including Mu Zeyu, back to their hometown.

But the emperor still refused to let them go and sent many people to secretly take the lives of Mu Zeyu and Prime Minister Liang's family.

In order to survive, they hid in the deep mountains and staged a death by wild animal attack.

In this way, they deceived the assassins sent by the emperor and lived in seclusion in the deep mountains under assumed names.

Nine-year-old Mu Zeyu was already old enough to remember things. He lived with the Liang family with a heart full of hatred. Prime Minister Liang passed away when he was fifteen years old.

For six years, Mu Zeyu practiced martial arts diligently, waiting for the day he could go to the capital to avenge his entire Mu family.

After Prime Minister Liang passed away, Mu Zeyu was going to join the army and bid farewell to the Liang family.

After joining the army, he continued to live in anonymity, rising through the ranks to become a general. After defeating the Western Zhou Kingdom, the two sides signed a peace treaty, and from then on, the borders of the Great Jin Kingdom were no longer disturbed by other countries.

After entering the court, Mu Zeyu was appointed as a general of the third rank and served the emperor.

In reality, it was about winning over other officials, some of whom were Prime Minister Liang's protégés and relatives, while others were General Mu's former subordinates, apprentices, and relatives of the general's wife's maternal family.

After several years of such planning, Mu Zeyu watched as the emperor and his princes became increasingly arrogant, extravagant, and dissolute, treating human life as worthless and persecuting loyal officials.

More and more officials gathered under his command, until the young master of the former head of the Imperial Medical Academy was tortured to death by the Eighth Prince. The Emperor and Consort Chen protected the Eighth Prince, and the head of the Imperial Medical Academy committed suicide in the main hall.

This was the trigger; all officials were on edge, and everyone in the Imperial Hospital was being watched by the emperor, who would be beheaded if they displeased him.

At this point, Mu Zeyu invited them to join him and sent people to protect their families.

Thus began a coup d'état that united most of the court officials and the entire Imperial Medical Academy.

This world will ultimately belong to the Chi family. After Mu Zeyu avenged himself and cleared the names of the Mu and Liang families from their grievances, he will still find a member of the Chi family to be the emperor, thus silencing the public opinion.

Chi Xing, who escaped the net, became the emperor. However, this escaped emperor clearly inherited the genes of the previous emperor and was initially a pitiful little emperor.

Once he sat on that supreme throne, he began to squander his wealth and live a life of extravagance.

250 turned to the next page of the notes and continued:

Mo Lanshan's pursuit of Mu Zeyu was unsuccessful, so she decided to go all out and participate in the talent show, just because she could see Mu Zeyu during the show.

But Akahoshi already had feelings for her, and on the spot, he bestowed upon her the title of concubine.
