The Crown Prince’s Husband Rises Through His Child

(The author likes to revise the story, so pirated copies are all incomplete versions ❤)

Powerful men bowing their heads / a battlefield of competing suitors / a touch of reverse harem

A gorgeous, greedy, lustful married woman x a cold, abstinent, mad-dog crown prince

①

Yin Wanzhi marries into the wealthy Song family as a bride meant to bring good fortune. She assumes she's there to enjoy a life of luxury, but her husband is sickly and has a sexual dysfunction, and they remain childless.

After her father-in-law dies, the clan's wolves circle, each eyeing the family's vast fortune and waiting for this branch to die out.

She is thrust onto the stage, and her ailing husband pushes her toward another man in hopes of continuing the family line.

Unwilling to give up such incredible wealth, Yin Wanzhi eventually agrees.

After several days of looking, she chooses a handsome scholar traveling through Jiangnan. He has long brows and bright eyes, an elegant, otherworldly air, and an impressive command of language.

After going to extraordinary lengths to seduce him into bed, she spends night after night tangled up with him. Then, once her pregnancy is confirmed, Yin Wanzhi's heart settles. That very night, she leaves two banknotes and a note, and slips away.

Not long after, an important guest suddenly arrives at the Song estate in Jiangnan.

As the entire household kneels to welcome him, Yin Wanzhi looks up and meets a pair of icy phoenix eyes.

She knows that face all too well.

Who else could it be but the handsome scholar?!

But now he wears brocade robes and a jade belt, seated high in the place of honor as he looks down at her with an almost-smile.

Yin Wanzhi's vision goes black, and she nearly collapses.

②

Rumor has it that the crown prince was once deceived in both body and heart by a woman while traveling in Jiangnan.

In the end, she even accused him of being "no fun in bed," left him a note, and ran away.

Now he gazes at the "young madam of the Song family," kneeling below him with a slight swell to her belly, and smiles leisurely.

"Be sure to give birth to this child safely, Madam."

"After all," he says, lightly tapping the table with a fingertip, his voice as cold as jade, "it's mine."

[Note]

1. The heroine is not a virgin; this is a melodramatic story, a melodramatic story, a melodramatic story!! A wild mix of kinks.

2. The leads' relationship and ending are strictly one-on-one. She and the second male lead were already divorced from the start.

3. The dynasty isn't based on any particular historical period; this is a fictional setting.

4. The author is sensitive, so there's no need to announce if you drop the story.

5. Some parts of the blurb have been adjusted slightly for the sake of logic, but the rivalry is still the same.

Ongoing story

Delicate noblewoman x warlord of a chaotic age

*

Ming Yi is the only daughter of a prefect. From birth, she's been cherished like a precious jewel, and she's spoiled, overbearing, and haughty.

Then rebel forces march north, chaos erupts in Cangzhou, and her fiancé abandons her, fleeing with his widowed sister-in-law.

What a disgrace!!

To protect herself, she has no choice but to pretend to be a wealthy merchant's daughter who ran from an arranged marriage, and reluctantly rely on a stable hand with a disfigured face.

They hide and flee all the way east, through ruined temples and wild grass, jolting along on horseback with the man's hot breath at her back.

Ming Yi is disgusted, but has to endure it to stay alive.

She only has to make it to Sizhou and take refuge with her uncle. Then she can dump him for good.

But fate has other plans. After falling off a cliff, she ends up in bed with the stable hand.

Ming Yi is both ashamed and furious.

Once she reaches her uncle's home, she decides to eliminate him once and for all.

But the stable hand saw through her from the beginning. He fights off ten men and, even as he escapes, bites her shoulder hard!

Looking at the red mark on her shoulder, she grits her teeth in fury. That mad dog is nothing but a stable hand. What could he possibly amount to?

-

In no time at all, the dynasty's fate is sealed, and rival warlords carve up the land.

Noble families seek survival through marriage alliances. Who could have expected Wei Yue to lay siege to the city on the wedding night?

He's known to be savage and cruel, with countless murders to his name. In just three years, he's become a powerful warlord.

The wedding banquet instantly turns into a funeral feast, and she, the bride, becomes the most eye-catching prize of war.

When her veil is lifted, she sees a cold, stern face more familiar to her than any other.

The man looks at her mockingly, but his gaze is like a rabid dog fixing on its prey.

"Long time no see, Ying Niang."

Ming Yi feels as if she's fallen into an icy abyss.

[Extra scene]

After the Battle of Shangqiu, everyone thought Wei Yue was dead and celebrated as they went about their business.

Half a year later, the scoundrel miraculously returned, unstoppable, fighting his way straight to Ming Yi's wedding banquet.

Everyone: You brat! Who knows where you hid for half a year to gather your strength!

Wei Yue (wiping his blade, and recalling it seriously): Well... I fed horses, chopped wood, and heated the young lady's foot bath.

① This is not a story about a strong female lead; the heroine is spoiled.

② The male lead is a dog. He takes what he wants. A forcibly plucked melon is still refreshing. Contains melodramatic, coercive romance. His original appearance was a disguise; the scars are gone later.

③ Fictional setting, very fictional!!! A hodgepodge.

④ Both leads are virgins, one-on-one.

Theme: Love is acceptance
