The Subjugated Emperor Accidentally Got Pregnant

Updated daily [Older, successful rebel-emperor seme × lazy, illiterate uke with a hearty appetite] In the second year after Duan Fengzhang successfully rebelled and became emperor, he began having the same dream every night. In the dream, he saw only someone's back. The person wore a half-open green robe, with long hair hiding their face. Duan Fengzhang could make out just one red mole on the person's shoulder. At the suggestion of those around him, Duan Fengzhang summoned Wujie, a holy monk from the Temple of State Protection, to explain the dream. The holy monk Wujie was only an eight-year-old child. As soon as he met Duan Fengzhang, he congratulated him: “Congratulations, Your Majesty, on the birth of your son.” Everyone knew that Duan Fengzhang had been emperor for a year and had no one in his harem. How could he have an heir? Duan Fengzhang immediately ordered Wujie beaten to death as a warning to others. But Wujie remained unruffled and said bluntly, “The little prince is in the palace. Once Your Majesty finds him, your dreams will stop.” Following Wujie's directions, Duan Fengzhang went to the imperial kitchens. There, at the entrance, he found Ji Mian, the former emperor who had once knelt and begged for mercy, rubbing his enormous belly as he gnawed on a chicken leg. Pointing at Ji Mian, Wujie looked immensely proud. “Your Majesty, look. I've found the little prince and his mother.” Duan Fengzhang: Should I kill him, or kill them all? As the fallen emperor, Ji Mian had shown no shame whatsoever when Duan Fengzhang stormed the capital. He immediately opened the city gates and let him in. So Ji Mian got a reasonably decent fate: he was granted residence in the Cold Palace and forbidden to leave for the rest of his life. Ji Mian was quite happy with this arrangement. He had plenty to eat and drink in the palace, and could even sneak off to the imperial kitchens now and then to rustle up something tasty. Until one night, when Duan Fengzhang caught him as he passed through the imperial gardens. He hadn't eaten enough, but his belly grew anyway. In the end, Duan Fengzhang not only spared Ji Mian and the child in his belly, but also made Ji Mian empress and the child crown prince... Duan Fengzhang: Something feels off. Did I really succeed in my rebellion? Content warnings: Single-couple romance, a fluffy, brainless sweet treat. The pregnancy was caused by medicine, and Ji Mian wasn't responsible for the dynasty's downfall. He just happened to become emperor by sheer luck... Theme: Don't waste food
