[R18] There’s too much meat, I don’t want it anymore – “Too Much Meat, I Don’t Want It Anymore” Chapter 72 [English]

0072 Extra: Li Yiwu (1)

My name is Li Yiwu, and I am the prince of Jingyu Kingdom. I am a brave general who is good at both literature and martial arts. This is something that everyone knows. I have a gorgeous identity and a frightening title, but no one has ever cared about why I became like this.

As the name suggests, I have advocated force since I was a child and like to play with guns, but my mother told me that I can’t do this.If I want to have a place in this vast Jingyu Kingdom and save my life, I need to become invincible. Only then can I protect myself and protect my mother.

But I didn’t understand at that time. I was obviously born as the prince of Jingyu Kingdom, respected by thousands of people, and would be the emperor above all thousands of people in the future. I have such a noble status, how could anyone harm me?

I am an upright person by nature, so I told my mother about my ignorance. She said that because I am the prince now, I have to study hard and become stronger. If I am lucky, I will become the emperor and benefit the people. Otherwise, when one day I am no longer the prince, I will be a useless person, just like the mud in the ground, and let people step on it.

No matter how I thought about it at that time, I couldn’t understand what it meant that I could become the emperor only with good luck. I was obviously the future emperor. Why did the queen mother say this?

But I didn’t dare to ask my mother, because every time I mentioned this issue, my mother would burst into tears and keep saying sorry to me.Although I am a dull person, I am still an obedient child. I obey my mother’s words and study hard. Not only do I practice martial arts, I also force myself to read those poems and songs that are like a book from heaven.

Because only if I am better than other princes, can I be praised by my father and my mother can squeeze out a smile from her gloomy face.

In fact, as I grew up, I understood the meaning of what the Queen Mother said. The Queen Mother was a princess who married from the country, and she had no relationship with the Emperor Father at all. And because of the geographical difference, many things the Queen Mother did dissatisfied the Emperor Father, so the Queen Mother was just a queen in name only in this harem.His father’s favorite was Concubine Xiu. Concubine Xiu always liked to ridicule and speak ill of the queen in front of his mother, so his father rarely visited his mother.

My father thought he was afraid of the power of his mother’s country, so he was deliberately indifferent to his mother. But I didn’t understand this at that time. I thought that as long as I worked hard and became invincible, my father would change his mind towards her.So in order to get more favor from my father, I forced myself to do things I didn’t want to do.

But when I was strong enough to stand firm in this palace, my mother was not blessed to enjoy my protection. When I was on an overseas campaign, she was tricked by Imperial Concubine Xiu, who slandered my mother for having an affair with a guard. My father became angry and gave my mother alcohol.

My mother was stubborn. She would rather die than admit her crime. So when I hurried back, I could only see her last face. Before she died, she told me not to fight in the palace and not to be greedy for the throne.

I originally had no connection with the emperor’s position. I fought for it just to make my mother happy. Now that my mother and queen are gone, he no longer has anything to do with my father and this palace.

After my mother passed away, Concubine Shu succeeded to the throne and became the empress that attracted everyone’s attention, taking charge of the harem. Because of my mother’s crimes, my father refused to let her be buried in the imperial mausoleum. I am completely disappointed with the entire imperial city.

So I took my mother’s ashes back to my mother’s hometown. I thought it would be much happier to bury my mother in the place where she was born than in the solemn imperial mausoleum.After my mother’s funeral, I shied away from all my duties in the capital and went to war all the year round, staying away from the palace. I felt that instead of scheming with Concubine Xiu in the palace, it would be better to gallop on the battlefield and laugh sincerely with the soldiers. That was what he yearned for.
