Marrying the Scumbag's Younger Brother

[Advance Preview in the Author's Collection: The Emperors I Served All Lost Their Kingdoms [Book Transmigration]] Yang Wenqing, a former frontier general, was accused of the grave crime of treason and spent three whole years in the imperial prison. The person who brought him to this pass was none other than his fiance, whom he had never even had the chance to marry. Just as he thought he would soon die of illness in prison, the new emperor, who had seized the throne only three months ago and already earned the title of tyrant, suddenly took it into his head to grant a general amnesty. Yang Wenqing was pardoned along with everyone else. The next day, word that he and the new emperor had been tangled up in bed together spread throughout Liyang City. The ministers accused him of being a femme fatale, and the imperial consorts called him a seductress. In no time, he became the talk of the whole country. Yang Wenqing was dumbfounded. "He just made a few sarcastic remarks and insulted me. I didn't do anything!" Just as everyone was convinced he and the new emperor had something going on, his former fiance suddenly came back and said he wanted to get back together. Yang Wenqing rolled his eyes. "Get lost." You put a huge green hat on me back then and did everything you could to have me killed. Get back together with you? Are you crazy, or am I? On the day Yang Wenqing married the new emperor, his former fiance blocked the doorway, gazing at him with deep affection. "A-Ran, I love you." Yang Wenqing gave a little hum. "I love your brother." His former fiance: "..." Yang Wenqing touched his belly. "Look, there's even a baby." His former fiance spat blood on the spot. It was all just nonsense at first, but not long after Yang Wenqing entered the palace... Yang Wenqing: "What kind of joke is this? I'm a man! How could I possibly get pregnant?" "Men can get pregnant, and all it takes is holding hands. Didn't you tell me that yourself back then?" the new emperor said darkly, feeding him pregnancy-soothing medicine. Yang Wenqing: "..." What the hell do you mean, all it takes is holding hands to get pregnant! This is the story of a gentle, refined young man who spent three years in prison and came out a seductive fox spirit, sleek as a fish in the waves. A fake pregnancy at first, a real birth later, and a dramatic revenge showdown.

With the five-year deadline drawing near, he set off for yet another country. As soon as he entered the city, that country's emperor hurriedly had him bound and sent eight hundred li under urgent dispatch to the emperor of a rival state. Qi Zhen lay on the rival emperor's bed like a fish out of water, grinding his teeth. "I, fucking...!" The rival emperor pointed his sword at him. "I hear that wherever the imperial preceptor goes, that country falls. Should I play it safe and behead you as an offering to heaven?" Qi Zhen was stunned. Surely that wasn't necessary. Just as the rival emperor raised his sword, ready to cut off one of Qi Zhen's ears, Qi Zhen's skin hunger suddenly flared up... Beautiful uke x gloomy, hypocritical seme P.S.
