Ji Liyang only wants to drift through life and let it pass. But he’s been given an ultimatum: if he won’t enter government service, he must marry and have children. Ji Liyang wants no part of either option, but the person making the demand is the emperor, so he doesn’t get to choose.
He had been hoping to find some peace and quiet at the Court of Judicial Review. Who could have known that the other person involved would return from outside and ask him, “I heard you’d rather do the very thing you used to despise than marry me. Do you hate me that much?”
A certain prince, who’s been trying his best to get along with his son, raises his hand. “I know the answer. It’s not that he hates you. He’s just too timid to dare.”
