I’m Done Being a Stepping Stone.
Synopsis.
After transmigrating into the eldest grandson of the Li family’s third generation, Li Junzhu initially thought he would have to change his family’s fate one step at a time through his own efforts.
Who knew that, by sheer chance, he would become brothers with a straight-laced science-and-engineering enthusiast who had transmigrated into a woman’s body, and kindred spirits with a naive crown prince who lived entirely in his dream of becoming a great hero?
He took a powerful figure, both righteous and wicked, as his master, and married the daughter of a military family, a valiant woman skilled in both letters and arms.
He was surrounded by a group of “spoiled young masters” from wealthy families, and had a library space containing countless books and knowledge at his disposal.
Only later did he realize that with a mere wave of his hand, he could stir up storms and shake the world.
After witnessing the cruelty of war and experiencing the people’s despair, he stood at the top and changed it all with his own hands.
Luan Xinghe transmigrated into a book, becoming one of the assorted bit-part characters in a quick transmigration novel, each serving as a stepping stone to help the protagonist succeed.
In the book, their lives were brushed aside in a few lines, so briefly that readers forgot all about them as soon as they finished.
Luan Xinghe’s special mission was to help these ordinary people, whose names had all been replaced by labels like “Teacher So-and-So,” “Master So-and-So,” or “So-and-So’s son,” live good lives.
First World: “The Honest Foster Father Who Died Young”
Second World: “The Neighboring Hunter Who Was Crippled While Saving the Protagonist”
Third World: “The Movie Star’s Half-Brother and Negative Example”
Fourth World: “The Eunuch’s Simplehearted Grandnephew”
Fifth World: “Just Another Mortal in the Cultivation World”
Reader’s Guide: There are plenty of original story details, so just sit back and enjoy the ride!
Theme: Change your own fate with your own hands
It's a pity about Ji Ruheng (or Chang Heng).
Hmm, I have a really scary feeling about this. We've been husband and wife, and there's absolutely no affection between us? It's all just a mission.
Please write a side story about Consort Yu when you have time!
Is that old headmaster the protagonist's past incarnation, or the original body of this world, but the original body died when the protagonist transmigrated, so he just randomly found someone to resurrect him?
It's a real pity about Ji Changheng. He was good when he was the crown prince, and he was also good when he was the emperor. How could he have such poor judgment in choosing a wife? And the sons they had were no good either.
To be honest, I think that aside from the Li family rebellion, the other side stories are unnecessary.
This side story is a bit disgusting! The emperor and his minister were supposed to have a harmonious relationship, with the emperor even rejecting a proposal to kill his brother for his sake. But then his son rebelled, infuriating the emperor to death. If the crown prince was so bad, why not just replace him? Why not just have the emperor have more children?
This world pierced by sieves
Alas, they are pitiful people. Killing the emperor is acceptable, but destroying the country... How innocent are the people living under this country?
