The Greatest Son-in-Law Under Heaven
The previous emperor passed away, and the new emperor took the throne. With one imperial decree, the entire Tu clan, who had helped the previous emperor conquer the realm, was beheaded out of the new emperor's fear of them.
The youngest son of the Tu clan, Tu Wanli, was kidnapped by a trafficker, and, ironically, that was what saved his life.
Unfortunately, though Tu Wanli was handsome, he was gloomy and unruly, and even breaking his bones couldn't make him submit. He was as good as crazy. No buyer wanted him, and when it became clear he wouldn't fetch a good price, the trafficker decisively abandoned this money-losing burden, leaving Tu Wanli in the mountains.
Before closing his eyes, Tu Wanli thought he was done for.
But when he opened them again, an unfamiliar ge'er was tilting his head and looking at him.
The ge'er took him home and said, "You're so handsome. Marry into my family and be my husband. I'll grow crops and support you."
Tu Wanli: "...?"
Tu Wanli stared at the blood he had coughed up, managed a smile, leaned against the ge'er's chest, and nodded.
Zhao Xingze should have inherited his family's estate, but because he was a ge'er, his neighbors claimed they wanted to find him someone to rely on while eyeing his one mu of farmland.
So Zhao Xingze picked up a man to shut the outsiders up.
His new little husband couldn't carry heavy loads or do manual labor, but he was clever, considerate, and handsome. The more Zhao Xingze looked at him, the more he adored him.
"Xingze, the sky's wide open here. Would you like to reach a little higher?"
Tu Wanli covered the red birthmark between the ge'er's brows with makeup, took Zhao Xingze's hand, and guided him as he wrote, "The azure heavens are dead."
"Xingze, what do you think the capital is like now? And what kind of person is the emperor...?"
Zhao Xingze went to take the imperial examination before the emperor. After looking him over, he came back and said, "Compared to the emperor, my husband is much more virtuous."
"Xingze..."
His little husband was wonderful in every way, except that he had no sense of proportion, whether the matter was big or small.
Zhao Xingze looked at the ambition in Tu Wanli's eyes and sighed. He was truly afraid that one day his little husband would say something so serious it would get his head chopped off.
...Never mind. No matter what happened, he would stand with Tu Wanli.
Tu Wanli brushed a hand over Zhao Xingze's eyes. His gaze was dark as he kissed Zhao Xingze's face and asked with a smile, "The current emperor is unjust. Do you want to give it a try?"
