· Coming Soon: The Sky Screen Says I'm the Child of an Emperor Who Can Have No Heirs ·
- Synopsis -
Meng Meilan is the notorious troublemaking auntie of Osmanthus Alley.
Hot-tempered, she and Aunt Jiao, who lives in the same courtyard compound, are sworn enemies.
They get into a fight every few days, and people in the compound even joke that they are "inseparable as Meng and Jiao."
So when Meng Meilan hears her daughter say she plans to marry Aunt Jiao's son, she is so furious that she faints on the spot.
Everyone in the compound is convinced the young couple's future is doomed:
"That marriage is definitely going to fall apart. Those two families are like fire and water. How could they ever become in-laws?"
"Heh, looks like our compound is about to put on a show of star-crossed lovers being torn apart!"
Hearing the gossip, the young couple look at each other, their eyes full of anxiety and unease.
But against all expectations, Meng Meilan agrees to her daughter's marriage to Aunt Jiao's son.
Aunt Jiao: "Meng Meilan, you're not plotting something, are you?"
Meng Meilan: "What the hell do you know? Why would I ever hurt my own daughter? But you, if you dare mistreat her after she marries into your family, you'll have me to answer to!"
Aunt Jiao: "..."
With Meng Meilan's fierce temper, Aunt Jiao wouldn't dare mistreat her daughter even if she had ten times the nerve!
[Wait, why has the story gone off track? Shouldn't Meng Meilan be dead set on breaking up her daughter and Aunt Jiao's son?]
[I'm confused too. I remember her daughter was so heartbroken that she went to the countryside to become an educated youth, then died of illness out there.]
Seeing the viewers' confusion in the comments, Meng Meilan gave a sour snort to herself.
She was her daughter's real mother, not some wicked stepmother!
Now that she knew what the future held, how could she stand by and watch her daughter die of illness far from home?
*
After discovering she had been reborn in the 1970s, Qian Jingxin was overjoyed.
She remembered that Aunt Jiao's son, who lived in the compound, would become a business tycoon in the future, and that he would never marry because he mourned Meng Meilan's daughter, who had died young.
Hoping to take her place and become the tycoon's cherished love, Qian Jingxin deliberately exposed their secret relationship to Meng Meilan, intending to use her as a weapon.
After that, Qian Jingxin eagerly awaited news that Meng Meilan's daughter had gone to the countryside. Only then could she take advantage of the tycoon's vulnerability.
But in the end, the "devastating news" she received was that the Meng and Jiao families were celebrating a marriage.
Qian Jingxin broke down in a fit of rage: How could my dream of becoming a rich man's wife have fallen apart so completely?!
·
Keeping a low profile despite her achievements, Meng Meilan uses spoilers from the comments to change her family's fate as cannon fodder. From then on, she also sets out on the bright path of becoming a "crime-busting nemesis."
When a gang of kidnappers first appears at the entrance to the alley, Meng Meilan sees a comment:
[Help!! I've seen them kidnap more than ten children already, and they still haven't had enough?]
[These vile kidnappers deserve to be hacked to pieces!]
Meng Meilan: What? The kidnappers have come to cause trouble in Osmanthus Alley?!
Meng Meilan grabs a weapon and leads a group of aunties and young wives to beat the kidnappers until they wail for their mothers and fall to their knees begging for mercy.
When people in the nearby alleys hear that the kidnappers have been caught in Osmanthus Alley, they all laugh and say the gang must have been looking for trouble, like pulling a tooth from a tiger's mouth!
While taking a stroll after dinner past the steel mill, Meng Meilan glances over and sees another comment:
[Those bastards! Some animal deliberately set a fire inside the steel mill!]
[My scalp is tingling. I can't imagine how many people would die or be injured if the fire spread, given how complicated the mill's production process is.]
Meng Meilan turns pale with fright, grabs her husband, the head of the security department, and rushes into the steel mill!
Later, everyone in the capital knows that Osmanthus Alley is home to Auntie Meng, who has "eyes like a hawk."
One glance from her is all it takes to expose anyone, whether they're kidnappers, arsonists, long-infiltrated spies, or gangs smuggling stolen artifacts!
Newspaper reporters compete to interview Meng Meilan, eager to find out how an ordinary auntie has solved so many bizarre cases.
Not knowing how to explain, Meng Meilan blinks several times, deep in thought.
"I've got it!" one reporter suddenly cries excitedly. "You mean your powers of observation are sharper than those of ordinary people?!"
The comments are full of praise: [As expected of an auntie from Chaoyang! Even in the 1970s, she's still just as fierce and observant!]
[What a shame Meng Meilan won't accept the police bureau's invitation. Otherwise, she'd absolutely become the most formidable auntie in the capital, aka the capital's greatest detective!]
Meng Meilan: ...What detective? I solve cases because your comments give me spoilers!

After transmigrating to ancient times, Ling Ge discovers that he has become a little orphan on the border.
Fortunately, he is bound to a nation-strengthening System.
Over ten years, Ling Ge grows from an orphan into a renowned border general known as the God of Slaughter, and is even adopted as the Marshal's son.
When the Marshal receives an imperial order to return to the capital, Ling Ge accompanies him to pay his respects to the emperor.
During court, the emperor, wary of the Marshal's influence, gives Ling Ge a warning as well. But at that very moment, a sky screen suddenly descends above the palace:
[Hey, everyone, we're here! Today's livestream is about the sixth emperor of the Great Sheng dynasty, the one you've all been clamoring to hear about: Emperor Shengwu!]
Noticing the sudden change in expression among the officials, Ling Ge grins, thinking that things are about to get interesting.
The current emperor, Emperor Shengzhao, is the fifth ruler of the Great Sheng dynasty. Though advanced in years, he has no children.
His two nephews are both trying to seize the throne. For years, they've been building up their factions and fighting each other openly and behind the scenes, practically wishing they could grind each other to dust.
[As everyone knows, Emperor Shengwu was a notoriously iron-fisted autocrat! Today, let's start by looking back at the gravest mistake he made in his life!]
Ling Ge: ...I'm doomed. That sounds like a tyrant to me!
The amusement vanishes from Ling Ge's eyes, and he starts figuring out an escape route.
The two princes vying for the throne are equally alarmed. Each hurriedly prays that Emperor Shengwu turns out to be his rival.
[Emperor Shengwu's biggest mistake was introducing high-yield crops like potatoes and sweet potatoes, which produce two thousand jin per mu. Now some people have eaten so much they're spending all day barking online like dogs! Yes, I'm talking about the haters of Emperor Shengwu! You ungrateful little bastards who have forgotten your ancestors...]
On the sky screen, the foul-mouthed streamer keeps hurling insults, while Emperor Shengzhao and the officials below erupt in an uproar.
The Minister of Revenue's pupils contract, his expression feverish. "Two thousand jin per mu? Heaven has blessed the people of Great Sheng!"
Then he remembers last year's famine, the starving corpses scattered across Guanzhong, the bodies piled up like mountains, and bursts into silent tears.
Meanwhile, Ling Ge stares blankly at the potato seeds in his System inventory. They are the latest reward he has just received from the nation-strengthening System.
·
[In five thousand years of history, there has never been another like him. He deserves to be called a sage ruler for the ages!]
[The emperor with the highest martial prowess in history! He unified the Central Plains, reclaimed the sixteen prefectures of the homeland, and subdued the foreign tribes on every frontier!]
As the sky screen continues to reveal more, increasing numbers of people inside and outside the court are won over by Emperor Shengwu's charisma and become his loyal supporters.
[He was Emperor Shengzhao's only son, but ended up wandering the common folk as a beggar. Though fate put him through countless hardships, he eventually ascended the throne and reclaimed the position that had always rightfully belonged to him!]
In the Golden Throne Hall, when the sky screen says Emperor Shengwu is the current emperor's own son, Emperor Shengzhao's two nephews, who had considered the throne as good as theirs, are struck as if by thunder. All color drains from their faces.
Emperor Shengzhao, who had believed he had no heirs, is so overcome with excitement that he slams the table, leaps to his feet, and laughs up at the sky. "Good! Good! Good! Heaven has not treated me unfairly! I have such a brilliant son!"
Every faction digs everywhere, desperate to find Emperor Shengwu, who has been living among the common people, but they come up empty-handed.
Then, on the day Ling Ge is ordered to return to the border, the sky screen livestreams:
[They meet without knowing each other, and their first meeting is their last. In the twenty-fifth year of Jingtai, Emperor Shengwu Ling Ge follows his adoptive father, the Grand Marshal, into the palace to meet his biological father, Emperor Shengzhao. After that, father and son are separated by life and death and never meet again!]
Upon hearing this, Emperor Shengzhao hastily leads the Imperial Guards to the city gate.
By the time the officials catch up, Emperor Shengzhao has already placed the twelve-strand imperial crown on Ling Ge's head with his own hands and announced before everyone that he is abdicating in Ling Ge's favor.
Ling Ge: ...This throne came so easily that it somehow feels like I got it for free.
Emperor Shengzhao pats Ling Ge on the shoulder with a look of relief. "My child, our family's throne has finally been waiting for you to inherit it!"
