Your Highness, My Father Is Plotting a Rebellion

*^_^* A not-very-competent but very devoted save-and-reload System + a stubborn dad who couldn't be dragged back even by nine oxen + a man who dies, comes back to life, and dies again.

Song Zhiwei transmigrates as the foolish son of a rebel family and gets bound to an unreliable save-and-reload System.

The moment he opens his eyes, his whole family is enthusiastically discussing their rebellion for the Nth time.

After being executed eight times, he is scared witless on the spot. "Don't rebel! You'll get your heads cut off! They won't even spare a fool like me!"

But his eldest brother has even allied himself with bandits. "Everything's ready, all we need is the right opportunity!"

His second brother wipes down his long sword. "Our names deserve a place in the annals of history, too."

His third brother declares passionately, "I even came up with a new reign title last night."

They're crazy! Every one of them. Song Zhiwei looks at these hot-blooded idiots.

And yet, they rebel anyway.

The next day, they are all locked up in the imperial prison.

The whole family is once again lined up neatly, spilling blood on the execution ground.

When Song Zhiwei opens his eyes again, he decides to try a different strategy.

He finds his father's sworn enemy, Prince Jing, Xie Mingqi, and says with the solemn air of someone ready to die, "Your Highness! My father is planning a rebellion!"

Prince Jing looks him over for a long moment. "Oh? You're willing to turn in your own father for the greater good? Arrest him."

After spewing corrupted text, the unreliable System suddenly brings up a choice:

[A. Kneel and call him Dad B. Throw yourself at him and kiss him C. Turn around and run]

Song Zhiwei makes his decision instantly, picks A, smoothly drops to his knees, wraps his arms around the man's leg, and gazes up at him with tears in his eyes. "Godfather! Your son pays his respects."

Xie Mingqi is amused by the move. He bends down and pokes Song Zhiwei's cheek. "Good boy."

But somehow, Song Zhiwei still dies this time.

When he opens his eyes for the tenth time, the System finally finishes loading, though it still lags.

Song Zhiwei: My cheat may be late, but it's here. This time, I'll defy fate and rewrite my destiny!

He rubs his hands together, ready to take the world by storm.

But the prime suspect himself comes looking for him, pins him to the bed, and strips off his clothes again and again. "I hear... your father is planning a rebellion?"

He even eagerly insists on becoming Song Zhiwei's godfather.

Later, this bargain godfather makes Song Zhiwei's family tell stories at a school, and every tale is about loyalty to the emperor and love of country.

At the same time, he pins his godson down on the Dragon Throne and has his way with him. "In this life, don't even think about escaping."

Song Zhiwei: "...?! Wait, Godfather, this isn't like you at all!"

Reading Guide:

1. A drama-loving, survival-minded fox of a bottom x a domineering, dark, crazy top. An intense game of push and pull.

2. Lighthearted and absurd. Political intrigue is just the backdrop; their game of mutual seduction is the real story.

3. System details: The System lags, runs late, and occasionally goes berserk. It's not very competent but is very devoted to the bottom, and always comes to the rescue at crucial moments.

Theme: Adapt, and you can make it through. Persist, and you can endure.
