I Became the Emperor's Precious One

[The story is complete. I hope you lovely readers will support the official edition. Sending love~] My new story, I Became My Sworn Enemy's Favorite, is currently updating. You're welcome to follow it~ This story is also known as My Days as the Palace's Favorite. Yin Cong was an unfavored illegitimate son of the Yin family. His greatest wish was to leave the family estate, but he never expected his father to send him to the harem to serve as a tool for Consort Yin in her struggle for favor. To get back at his selfish father and aunt, Yin Cong took a reckless gamble and deliberately threw himself in front of Emperor Qiande's palanquin. The emperor had always despised the harem's underhanded competition for favor. But this time, he unexpectedly refrained from punishing the little beauty who had thrown himself in his path, and instead took him back to his bedchamber. To get his revenge, Yin Cong diligently and conscientiously tried to please the emperor. At last, the Yin family lost power and Consort Yin was sent to the Cold Palace. With his vengeance achieved, Yin Cong was ready to leave, but Emperor Qiande caught him by the tail and refused to let him go. Xiao Ling: You flirt with me and then think you can run? Yin Cong: QAQ Later, everyone in the palace knew there was a sharp-tongued, spoiled, willful little wildcat in the harem, one even the emperor could do nothing about. Climbing trees one day, catching fish the next, and wrecking the roof if left alone for three days, he turned the whole palace upside down. The consorts and palace maids dared not complain, because the little wildcat had the emperor and empress backing him. Weak, helpless, pitiful but always hungry, beloved beauty shou x powerful, doting emperor gong [The shou is genuinely soft, cute, and childish. He is not a strong shou, nor particularly manly.] Before you read: [Important: This is not a mindless wish-fulfillment story.] 1. The gong is a typical emperor with a harem and children. There is a 20-year age gap, and all the gong's children are older than the shou. The gong is neither chaste nor a scumbag. His harem has been little more than a formality for years, and he truly loves only the shou. The gong's children also dote on the shou. 2. Qiande is an era name, not a posthumous title. 3. The story mainly follows palace life, with some sweetness and doting, as well as a little palace intrigue. The gong dotes on the shou wholeheartedly. There are all kinds of cute contrasts: height, age, build, status, and generation. 4. The shou is the palace's favorite. Everyone except the villains dotes on him. 5. I haven't written a historical story in a long time, and this is set in a completely fictional world. Please don't nitpick the historical details. My writing may be a little rough, so please bear with me. You don't have to like it, but please don't be mean QAQ. 6. Writing is how I make a living, so please don't repost the story in any form.

More stories of the same type are waiting for you~ Coming soon: The Little Prince Sent to Marry Yan Yan is the youngest son and favorite child of the Southern Emperor. His mother, Consort Yu, is the most favored woman in the harem. She was a rare beauty in her youth, and Yan Yan has surpassed her, winning the hearts of every young woman in the imperial capital while still in his teens. People say that a beloved little prince like Yan Yan will be granted a rich fiefdom when he comes of age, where he can live as a carefree prince and marry several beautiful concubines, spending the rest of his life in comfort. But before he can even come of age, he is tricked into a political marriage in the Northern Kingdom. He is to marry the Northern Emperor, a man in his thirties whose children are older than Yan Yan and whose harem is crowded with consorts and male attendants. When the people of the Southern Kingdom hear what has happened to him, they all feel sorry for him. At first, Yan Yan doesn't know that he is going to the Northern Kingdom for a political marriage. He thinks it's just an ordinary visit. Along the way, he hears that the Northern Emperor is enormous and terrifying, and that he can frighten children into crying at night. This piques Yan Yan's interest, but when he finally meets the man, he declares that all the rumors must be lies. The Northern Emperor has sharp brows and bright eyes, and looks fearsomely impressive. He is the most imposing man Yan Yan has ever seen. That is what Yan Yan initially thinks of the Northern Emperor. Then he belatedly realizes that he is there to marry him. As the emperor's towering figure approaches, Yan Yan curls up in the corner of the bed, trembling. He really can frighten children into crying at night! At first, Helian Gao has no interest in the little prince sent by the Southern Kingdom to "marry" him. The Southern Emperor merely asked him to protect Yan Yan, and he agreed to keep him in the Northern Kingdom for the sake of good relations between the two countries. He never expected that when Yan Yan learned he was there to marry the Northern Emperor, he would cry and beg to go home. He wailed like a kitten on the verge of death, and nobody could comfort him. In the end, Helian Gao had to lower himself to soothe the boy. This little prince, pampered by the mild southern climate until his skin was soft and delicate, quickly settled into the Northern Kingdom's palace and made himself at home, causing all kinds of mischief. He became sworn brothers with the emperor's sons, went horseback riding and archery, and teased the emperor's beautiful consorts and concubines. The delicate ladies came to cry to the emperor, but Yan Yan never learned his lesson. He even grew bolder, throwing a tantrum and demanding to go home at the slightest criticism, until someone had to humble themselves and coax him. Later, Helian Gao pinched Yan Yan's cheek and said disdainfully, "You're so spoiled!" Yan Yan bared his teeth at him in protest. "You're the one who spoiled me!" Before you read: 1. The gong is an older man and an emperor, and he is not a virgin! He has a harem, and there are even some plotlines about harem rivalries. The shou doesn't have to compete for favor, since he is the gong's only favorite. After the political marriage, the relationship is one-on-one! The shou is a young virgin, a spoiled and clingy little sweetheart, and more than ten years younger than the gong! The author loves this sort of older gong who has seen it all but chooses one person to dote on. This is my own indulgence! If this kind of pairing isn't for you, please mind the tags! Respect each other's preferences! Say it with me: We can agree to disagree! 2. This is an angsty, sweet, doting romance written while the author is going through a creative slump, to help get the creative juices flowing again. There may be a little angst, but overall it's sweet. The gong spoils the shou almost without limits. Sweetness, doting, and more doting are all that matter. Logic doesn't! Theme: True love can overcome differences in age, status, and class.
