Snow Blankets the Bow, the Blade Is Cold

A cringey story I wrote during my chuuni phase. Not recommended. ** Blurb: Everyone says that Shen Huaibi, the Northern Garrison General, is capricious and eccentric, a ruthless killer who doesn't even bother to strip his victims before eating them. His fearsome reputation has spread far and wide, and he rules the land north of the Yangtze like a tyrant. When Prince Qi Mo's father, the emperor, tied him up and sent him north of the Yangtze, Qi Mo thought to himself that sooner or later, he'd kill this menace, take the battlefield, and kick that corrupt official off his throne so the people could enjoy peace and prosperity. But on the way, he was captured by bandits and rescued by someone. The beautiful person who lifted the carriage curtain smiled at him. Before Qi Mo could warn his sword-wielding rescuer that he'd been drugged, the drug took effect, and he spent the night with the beauty. When he woke up and saw the beautiful person beside him, as lovely as the moon and as clear as the breeze, he couldn't believe this was the hideous Shen Huaibi of legend?!!! In obedience to his father's imperial decree, he has no choice but to spend his days and nights with Shen Huaibi. Then he discovers that this man is not only as beautiful as a celestial being, but also protects the weak and fights the wicked. Most importantly, he's a formidable martial artist too?! Prince Qi Mo, who has dreamed of becoming a great hero since childhood, bursts into tears of joy. "Master, please accept me as your disciple!" Shen Huaibi: "..." He can't help but touch his stomach. What should I do when my child's father keeps wanting to become my disciple? * After his entire clan was slaughtered in a conspiracy, Shen Huaibi changed his name and went into hiding north of the Yangtze. He spent his days drinking tea and walking his birds, living a dull life as plain as water. Then one day, the old emperor sent him a treasured little prince from far away. The prince thought the world of himself, and even before reaching the north, he declared that he would rid the people of evil. He was full of youthful confidence, bold and carefree. He made Shen Huaibi's life, which had once been dark and predictable to the very end, feel vibrant again. Later, the little prince gradually changed his mind about him. He took Shen Huaibi's hand and said solemnly, "General, I know there's more to your family's story than meets the eye! I'll help you get to the bottom of it!" The little prince paused, then added with red ears, "I'll take good care of you and your child!" Shen Huaibi: What?! I thought I'd just been slacking off on martial arts practice. I never imagined I was pregnant! [Content warning: Male pregnancy! Male pregnancy! Male pregnancy!] [Top's point of view. One-on-one forever! Happy ending!] [The author made up the world by hand.
