A Slacker's Weakness

Chapter Seventy

The Crown Prince Goes on Strike was mainly about the absurd story between the Moon Dynasty's crown prince and his time-traveling crown princess. The crown prince was constantly neglecting his duties, thinking only of getting his younger brothers to seize his position as soon as possible. The crown princess, a fierce woman from Northeast China who had traveled through time, did not get caught up in palace intrigues. Instead, she became the palace's most formidable enforcer, blessed with monstrous strength.

It would have been fine if all the Moon Dynasty princes had been wildly ambitious. But after reviewing the history books, they discovered that emperors tended to die young and face all manner of assassinations. They became terrified and prayed every day for their elder brother to live to a hundred, enjoy unending blessings, and have more children, so the throne would never pass from brother to brother.

It was a standard goofy script, but unfortunately, the market had no appetite for that kind of thing. Most television stations were not buying it.

Their production crew was poor, so the costumes were simple as well. Take Li Wenchuan's crown prince outfit—even upon close inspection, there were loose threads hanging from it.

This opposing scene was about Crown Prince Tang Xiao having dinner with his crown princess, Luo Xiaoxiao.

Tang Xiao was especially troubled today. His imperial father had been hinting that his health was poor and that he intended to abdicate and become the Retired Emperor. Wasn't that forcing him into the job early? Faced with mountains of memorials, his heart was about to stop beating.

Li Wenchuan's expression was spot-on at that moment. He had barely needed to put in any effort.

He had felt exactly the same way when he was about to become crown prince.
