Fu and Pei: Ruling the World Together

[Two Male Leads] [Older Top] [Both Pure] [Both Strong] [Childhood Friends]

[This story is set in a fictional world. Historians, please stay away.]

After the new emperor, Fu Hong, ascended the throne, he targeted the young Prince of Jibei, Pei You, at every turn.

Some said it was because the Pei family had supported the eldest prince in the past struggle for the throne.

The second prince, Fu Hong, had launched a coup during the autumn hunt, killed the eldest prince, and seized the throne, so naturally he would target Pei You at every turn.

Why hadn't he killed the entire Pei family?

Fu Hong had only just taken the throne, and Wei's neighbors, including Western Liang, Dai, and Rouran, were eyeing it hungrily. The borders were far from peaceful.

Moreover, Fu Hong was constrained by General Liang Bi, who had helped him take the throne, while the old Prince of Jibei, Pei Yi, and the former supporters of the eldest prince had deep roots at court. One move could set off a chain reaction, so Fu Hong didn't dare act rashly.

On top of that, Fu Hong needed the peerless strategist Pei You to defend Wei's borders.

Still, Fu Hong couldn't swallow his anger over what the Pei family had done to him, so he would take it out on Pei You from time to time.

Faced with Fu Hong's harshness and oppression, Pei You always endured it, remaining utterly loyal.

Until one day, Fu Hong asked Pei You, "Why don't you fight back?"

He replied, "When we were children, you swore to me, 'The Fu and Pei families will rule the realm together!'"
