I Found a Shadow Guard to Make My Empress

Feng Zhao was stranded on a low-level planet. He unified the land and became emperor, but grew increasingly restless: he could not leave this planet!

By day, he was a diligent ruler, attending court, handling state affairs, supervising officials, and personally visiting military camps. By night, he trained his body until dawn, possessing an almost abnormal amount of energy.

One day, Feng Zhao was gravely wounded.

"I... I came to save you..." A masked man approached, his voice trembling as he carefully helped him sit up.

The next instant, the emperor lost control to instinct and pinned him beneath himself.

A night of chaos.

At dawn, Feng Zhao came to his senses and looked at the man curled in his arms, his expression complicated. He felt more satisfied and at ease than ever before. This man was unexpectedly just his type.

"Come back to the palace with me," the emperor ordered, leaving no room for argument. "Become my empress."

Even in the interstellar age, finding a compatible partner was no easy matter. He decided to follow the most honest choice: what his body wanted.

Wuyang was horrified. Wait, he was only a shadow guard sent to find his master!

"...All right." Wuyang pretended to agree. But when Feng Zhao reached out to take his hand, Wuyang struck him with a chop to the neck, knocked him out, grabbed his clothes, and ran.

Feng Zhao was furious when he returned to the palace.

"Search the entire country for this man. Turn the land upside down if you must, but bind him and bring him before me!"

Under the imperial decree, a meticulous portrait was circulated throughout the land. The person in it had delicate features, but one shadow guard hiding in the rafters nearly fainted at the sight of it.

Later, during a discreet outing, assassins suddenly attacked.

A shadow guard leaped in front of Feng Zhao. The emperor narrowed his eyes. That figure looked so familiar...

He grabbed the man and pulled him to his side, then yanked off his face covering.

"Found you."

Feng Zhao's lips curled, but his gaze was dangerous. "The crime of deceiving the emperor... You'd better think carefully about how you'll make it up to me."

That night, in the bedchamber.

Feng Zhao calmly sized up the shadow guard who had been sent into his bed curtains. "You're rather slender, but your belly... Has it gotten a little bigger?"

He lifted the man's chin and asked softly:

"Do you know how to serve me in bed?"

The shadow guard's lashes trembled. His voice was as faint as a mosquito's.

"...Yes."

The emperor was quite satisfied.

As it turned out, after his shadow guard had served him in bed for a month, just as he was about to appoint him empress, the man ran away!

Feng Zhao's gaze darkened. When he found his empress, he would... lock him up and never let him run again.

One day, Feng Zhao found his down-and-out empress, brought him into a carriage, and headed straight for the bedchamber. He took off the man's clothes and uttered two words: "Serve me."

But then he saw that the shadow guard's belly had grown quite a bit.

Wait! Was he going to be a father?!
