His Majesty Is Pregnant with the Cold Regent's Child

[Adorably silly little emperor bottom] & [Scheming regent top who uses all eight hundred tricks to fool his wife]

The famously mighty General Zhou Ziji was said to be cold, ruthless, and bloodthirsty. Yet after the late emperor passed away, he helped the foolish Prince Ming take the throne, content to serve as regent beneath him.

Poor Prince Ming, Zhong Minghe, had barely figured out what was going on before he was pushed onto the glittering throne.

Still, he heard that being emperor meant getting to feast, so he was happy.

He loved feasts more than anything!

But in his excitement, he drank a few too many cups and climbed into Zhou Ziji's bed, where Zhou had been drugged.

They spent the night entwined in passion.

Zhong Minghe forgot what happened that night, but the wine had been mixed with a fertility drug. Their passionate night had left its mark, and he found himself carrying a little one.

Pregnancy was difficult for a man, and even harder to terminate. With no other choice, Zhong Minghe tried to hide his belly, terrified that the fearsome regent would find out and chop off his head.

But a secret like that could not stay hidden forever. One day Zhou Ziji noticed something was amiss. “Have you put on weight lately, Your Majesty?”

“N-no, I...”

It's over! It's over! I can't hide it anymore!

What do I do? What do I do...

The eunuch had said that if he cried, people wouldn't bully him, so he cried. But Zhou Ziji did not let him off. If anything, he became even fiercer.

The ministers all assumed that the regent had put a fool on the throne because he planned to usurp it eventually. But they waited and waited, and no news came of him deposing the emperor and making himself king. Instead, that fool grew more and more like an emperor.

Some even saw the regent personally changing the little prince's clothes and putting on his shoes, taking over the duties of the emperor's personal eunuch and affectionately calling the little emperor “Baby.”

W-was this really the same bloodthirsty, terrifying regent?

The regent did have ulterior motives, though, because before long they welcomed a little crown prince who looked just like him.

Everyone said, “Just as we thought, he had treasonous ambitions all along!”

Coming soon: The Little Imperial Physician's Failed Escape While Pregnant

Liu Yuwen was a herb-grinding apprentice at the Imperial Medical Academy. By a twist of fate, the academy's director took a liking to him and trained him personally. Liu Yuwen lived up to expectations and became the youngest imperial physician in the academy.

Unexpectedly, he was suddenly selected and sent to serve the “frail and sickly” Sixth Prince, Song Pei.

To repay his mentor, Liu Yuwen worked hard, keeping watch by the Sixth Prince's bedside every day, checking his pulse and tending to him with the utmost care.

Then one day, while drunk, he was pulled into bed by the drugged Sixth Prince, and they got carried away together.

Liu Yuwen felt sore and aggrieved, but the Sixth Prince, still unsatisfied, pressed him beneath him again.

Once Song Pei had a taste, he became addicted, unable to stop or let Liu Yuwen go.

But Liu Yuwen could not take it anymore. He tried hitting Song Pei and drugging him, but nothing worked, and eventually he gave in.

Then one day he found himself drowsy and muddle-headed, with a dizzy head all the time, and thought he had come down with some serious illness.

When he checked his pulse, he was so shocked he nearly jumped. He was carrying a little one! Feeling utterly helpless, he immediately prepared to run away.

He fled to another place and started working as a doctor, but less than a month later, someone caught him and dragged him back. Song Pei gripped his chin fiercely. “Why are you running? I'm not some poisonous snake or wild beast.”

The little imperial physician was a wretched mess, tears welling in his beautiful eyes. He shook his head wildly and clutched his belly.

Only then did Song Pei notice the slight curve of the little physician's belly. His eyes reddened with fury. The little thing had secretly gotten pregnant behind his back!

So he kept the little physician locked up, wrapped him in passion day and night, and demanded to know who the baby belonged to.

The little physician's eyes brimmed with tears. Clutching Song Pei's hand, he stammered, “Y-yours...”

Coming soon: The Little Husband I Found Is a Prince

At first: A silly bottom and a goofy top

Later: A haughty bottom and a top who knows how to coax his wife

Rong Sheng, the fifth prince of the Yu Dynasty, was ambushed and fell off a cliff. The butcher Jiang Zhao rescued him, but he had lost his memory. He recognized no one except Jiang Zhao and followed him everywhere.

Everyone said Rong Sheng was the little husband Jiang Zhao had taken in.

Rong Sheng did not know what “husband” meant. When someone told him it meant a man who could have babies, he remembered that Jiang Zhao had saved him and, not knowing how else to repay him, decided to have a baby for him.

Jiang Zhao might have been rough around the edges, but he was an honorable man and would not take advantage of someone in a vulnerable position.

So Rong Sheng clung to Jiang Zhao day after day, driving him wild with desire. After all his efforts, Rong Sheng finally got his wish and became pregnant.

Every day, Rong Sheng looked forward to the baby growing bigger. He hoped it would be both beautiful and adorable.

But on the day he gave birth, his guards found him. Before he could even hold his newborn, they took him away.

When Jiang Zhao returned, all he found was blood on the floor and a baby crying for its mother's milk on the bed.

After returning, Rong Sheng fell gravely ill and forgot everything about Fuyu Village. But when the imperial physician told him he had once given birth to a child, he was ashamed of having been a husband and grew to hate the man who had made him pregnant.

Years later, by chance, Jiang Zhao got the opportunity to serve as an official at court.

The weather was beautiful on the day he entered the palace, just like the day he had found Rong Sheng.

He looked up and saw the little wife he had searched for five long years, standing atop the city wall.

He stood high above, radiant and dazzling. He was no longer the Rong Bao of five years ago, who had followed Jiang Zhao around, grinning foolishly.

Jiang Zhao wanted to talk to him and tell him that he had raised their child well, and that he had searched for him for years. But all he got was a scornful, hateful “Get lost”...
