The Concubine I Keep Is a Black-Hearted Lotus

The synopsis for the upcoming novel "After I Dumped the Enemy Crown Prince, I Ran Away While Pregnant" is below.

[Fraillord Chancellor x Unhinged Beauty]

Shen Zhiqing, the chancellor of Nanliang, had someone he treasured above all others. He went to find him, only to see Regent Ji Yan torture him to death.

From that day on, Shen Zhiqing became the emperor's blade, tasked with killing Ji Yan for him.

A year later, the palace bestowed a performer on Shen Zhiqing to warm his bed.

Holding that face, so much like Ji Yan's, Shen Zhiqing remembered the look Ji Yan had given him as he died.

Like a tiger pouncing on its prey, ready to bite through his neck.

Shen Zhiqing: "What... is your name?"

"This servant is called A Yan."

In that moment, Shen Zhiqing almost believed Ji Yan had returned, come back to settle the score with him.

Ji Yan had never thought he would see Shen Zhiqing again. He forced his eyes away from that neck, which looked like it would snap with a single squeeze.

The person in Shen Zhiqing's heart was dead. This time, no one could take him away.

*

Shen Zhiqing: The regent killed my person, then humbled himself before me. What does he want?

Ji Yan, having reclaimed his power, set Shen Zhiqing on the throne, took hold of the delicate ankle he had longed for, and knelt to kiss him. "You."

Shen Zhiqing was so angry his hands trembled.

Ji Yan: I killed him because he took my name and stole your love. He didn't deserve you.

Shen Zhiqing: ...

The state of Mian was defeated in battle and forced to send a prince to Xiliang as a hostage. Just after transmigrating into a book, Li You became the unlucky one chosen for the job.

With his future as cannon fodder and a life of gruel ahead, Li You decided to cling to the protagonist.

The protagonist, Yin Shaoshang, was a spy sent by Mian, waiting for the right moment to kill the enemy crown prince and then retire in triumph.

Li You: As long as I stick close to the protagonist, surely I'll find my way home!

Who could have guessed that after getting completely drunk at a palace banquet, Li You would wake up in bed with the villainous crown prince?

Xiliang's Crown Prince Mu Youbai killed without batting an eye.

Li You shivered. Time to get out of here!

Back in Mian, Li You stared at his steadily growing belly, lost in thought.

Li You: What the heck!

How could he not remember this happening in the original story?

Later, Yin Shaoshang's assassination attempt failed, and Mu Youbai destroyed Mian.

As Mu Youbai approached him from his imperial throne, Li You's heart gave a lurch.

This was it. He'd come to settle the score!

Mu Youbai looped a slender chain around Li You's hand and pulled him close. "You'er, why did you run?"

Li You burst into tears. "Mu Youbai, you're bullying me."

Mu Youbai stroked his round belly. "How am I bullying you?"

Li You: "I'm pregnant. The child is yours."

Mu Youbai: "..."

Theme: Put the greater good before your own family, and work hard to build a beautiful life.
