The Deposed Crown Prince Was Reborn and Conceived the Assassin's Child

[The main story is complete. Thank you for supporting the official release.] [My next novel, After Becoming the Bandit Chief’s Wife, is open for bookmarking.] Blurb: Only after Ye Yungui died a wretched death did he learn that he was the doomed crown prince in a book. After being deposed, he was confined in the imperial mausoleum. An assassin blinded him, and he also fell gravely ill. Before long, he died in despair. Fortunately, he was reborn. The assassin had not appeared yet, so Ye Yungui decided to set a trap and strike back. Not long afterward, on a moonlit night, the assassin arrived as expected and was successfully captured by Ye Yungui. Ye Yungui noticed that the assassin was tall and slender, broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, with an exceptionally handsome face. He immediately decided to give him a little reward and take him into his service. A few months later, Ye Yungui looked down at his gradually swelling belly and realized that perhaps he had given the man a little too much of a reward. From the gong’s perspective: Cen Mo was widely regarded as the greatest assassin in the Great Xia Dynasty. He had never failed in his career, until one day he plunged headfirst into Ye Yungui’s “trap” and never climbed back out. From then on, the sharpest blade in the Great Xia Dynasty served Ye Yungui alone. After Ye Yungui ascended the throne, he was always accompanied by a guard who never left his side. Rumor had it the man had no title or official position and was thoroughly insolent. He even let the young crown prince privately call him Father! Reader advisory: One-on-one, happy ending, pregnancy. The gong dotes on the shou. The shou has a System after being reborn. This is a fictional setting, so please don’t nitpick the history. The author’s made up plenty of things. No unsolicited writing advice, please. If you’re not enjoying it, feel free to stop reading. Hugs~ [This story is entirely fictional. Please don’t bring real-world assumptions into it. Sending love.] [Cover art used with permission: Er Gou, from Juan Si Ji] I recommend my upcoming historical BL novel, After Becoming the Bandit Chief’s Wife. Characters: A sweet, adorable bandit chief’s wife shou x an overbearing new bandit chief gong After Ji Fuchen died, he transmigrated into a book as a doomed side character. The original character had been abducted by bandits to become their chief’s wife, then died by smashing his head against a pillar on his wedding night. That very night, the short-lived bandit chief was “dethroned” and didn’t even survive until the wedding was over. When Ji Fuchen transmigrated, the original had just smashed his head against the pillar, and the bandit chief had just died. Clutching his head, he struggled to his feet and decided to quietly play the part of a “widower,” keeping himself alive first and worrying about the rest later. The young new bandit chief came rushing over, a bloodied saber in hand and a fierce look on his face, only to see the handsome young man who had “failed to kill himself.” He had half a chicken leg in his left hand and a wine jug in his right, his cheeks bulging with food... “Mm...” The young man jumped in fright. It took him a great deal of effort to swallow what was in his mouth, and his eyes watered from choking. The new bandit chief looked at the young man’s pitiful, obedient, soft appearance and suddenly sheathed his saber! Underling: That’s the old man’s person. Aren’t you going to kill him? New bandit chief: He can eat and drink, and he looks decent. Keep him around to guard the house! Ji Fuchen: ... Weak, pitiful, and helpless.jpg After that day, plenty of people in the stronghold waited for a show, guessing how long the chief would keep this “pretty waste.” But they hadn’t counted on Ji Fuchen being rather capable. He farmed and raised livestock in the stronghold, making a thriving success of it. In just six months, the standard of food in the stronghold shot straight up! At first, everyone: Let’s see how long he lasts! Later, everyone: Let Ji Fuchen pick first whenever there’s something good! Through his own efforts, Ji Fuchen finally carved out a place for himself in the stronghold. His only problem was that the bandit chief, Zhou An, seemed to dislike him. Every time they met, Zhou An stared at him as if he might rush over and bite him. Ji Fuchen saved up his belongings while planning to find a chance to leave. Then, not long afterward, the stronghold was struck by disaster, and Ji Fuchen was abducted. Zhou An led his men to wipe out several nearby bandit dens, rescuing Ji Fuchen and conveniently eradicating the bandit threat on behalf of the imperial court. Ji Fuchen was deeply moved. He thought Zhou An finally considered him one of his own. Instead, Zhou An said awkwardly, “We’re family. What’s there to be polite about?” Ji Fuchen looked utterly confused. “When did I become part of your family?” Zhou An: “That old man’s stronghold belongs to me now, so naturally his bandit chief’s wife belongs to me too.” Theme: Work hard, and live facing the sun.
