Reborn as Su Shi's Sickly Older Brother, I Wrote a Novel and the Entire Court Found Out?!

Su Jingtian, a novelist, transmigrated into the scumbag character from one of his own stories, a groveling-after-the-wife-is-gone romance.

This scumbag would sit the imperial examinations one year before Su Shi, thereby avoiding the "greatest examination results list of all time," and come top of the list, becoming an unparalleled sensation as the new top scholar. During his parade through the streets on horseback, Princess Fukang would notice him at first sight.

Princess Fukang rejected her arranged marriage for him. Unfortunately, she had jumped from the frying pan into the fire. He had feelings for his cousin, and after their wedding, his conceit led him to neglect the princess. Once she came to her senses, she cast him aside like garbage. His attempt to win her back failed, and he died a miserable death.

If Su Jingtian hadn't become this scumbag, he would have praised the character's death just like the readers who commented under the story: "Good riddance!" But now he'd become the "eldest son of the Su family" and "top scholar," a character he'd only given a background and hadn't even named. He was about to meet a tragic end. That was... less than ideal.

No, he had to keep his head down!

Be good to the princess. Better. Better still!

Turn "groveling after the wife is gone" into a thing of the past!

And...

In his spare time, Su Jingtian enjoyed being a kept man with a high-ranking but easy sinecure, thanks to his marriage to the princess. He simply returned to his old profession!

Writing novels!

Groveling-after-the-wife-is-gone romances, the Dragon King Returns, the Rejected Engagement genre's arrogant young master, max-level experts returning to the beginner's village, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and everything else under the sun. He wrote them all!

Love Lost, Regret Found: Long Live the Princess

[After years of painstaking study, the top scholar Gu Shi, who had placed first in all six rounds of the imperial examinations, was appointed as the princess's consort. The princess loved him, but Gu Shi felt nothing for her. He only wanted to dedicate his talents to the country and, once he had made a name for himself, marry his childhood sweetheart from the countryside.

The princess spent ten years trying to warm his cold heart. One night, Gu Shi died saving her. With her hand in his, he said before his death, "I hope that in the next life, we won't make the mistake of marrying the wrong people."

To her surprise, when the princess opened her eyes, she had truly returned to ten years earlier. She was on her way out of the city to have fun, having persuaded her father to let her go, when she saw Gu Shi on a tall white horse. He was so handsome that she fell in love at first sight.

Having lived another life, the princess decided not to marry him!

But in this life, Gu Shi entered the court as she had wished and rose to become chancellor. He had never been involved with his childhood sweetheart at all. He had only sent letter after letter to express his longing, and begged the princess to give him another chance.]

When the book first appeared in Bianjing, everyone was stunned: ?!

[Reborn for a second life! Good heavens, such a chance really exists!]

[Who is this guy who isn't even happy to marry a princess? If you don't want to marry one, let me do it!]

[A promising young chancellor devoting his life to one woman. So sweet!]

Some people thought the book was secretly referring to Su Jingtian and Princess Fukang. Regardless, it became an absolute sensation in Bianjing!

With this book, Su Jingtian also went from kept man to self-made millionaire!

However...

Su Jingtan didn't dare keep any of the money for himself. He gave it all to the princess, sometimes secretly and sometimes openly.

He really didn't want the princess to think he had ulterior motives!

Only after the events of the original plot had passed did Su Jingtian suddenly realize that he and the princess had become Bianjing's most famous loving couple!

And... his pen name had been exposed, and the entire court had mistaken the novel for a declaration of loyalty written for the princess.

Damn it, how was he supposed to write novels now? Stop digging up my secret identity, would you?! Su Jingtian wailed.
