I Snatched the Throne and Bound Myself to a Romance System

(The serialized story My Childhood Friend and I Are Together with His Majesty in the Stars is complete. It's a sweet story about childhood friends growing up together. Check it out in my author profile~)

A lazy fish of an emperor x a beautiful, sweet-on-the-outside, calculating Imperial Tutor

Yan Wenchao transmigrated into the seventh prince of the Great Yu Dynasty, an unloved son. He'd planned to live peacefully as a lazy fish and stay out of court politics.

But after waking from a nap, he learned from a young eunuch that his father was dead, his crown prince brother was dead, and his ambitious fifth brother was dead. Now, for one reason or another, his first through sixth older brothers were all dead, making him the sole heir to this vast dynasty.

After inheriting the throne by sheer luck, Yan Wenchao received a romance System on the night of his coronation.

His ancestors had gotten things like a military command System, a wealth-making System, a popularity System, and mind-reading.

But all he got was a System that couldn't do anything except obsess over couples in his head all day.

The System told him there was something going on between the chancellor and the general.

The System told him there was something going on between the late emperor's new male consort and a young guard.

The System told him there was something going on between the top scholar he had personally appointed and the second-place scholar.

Yan Wenchao was helpless. What else could he do but ship them all?

Who knew that the more he shipped couples, the more support he gained, and the more prosperous the empire became?

Yan Wenchao: This kind of good thing is possible?!

Until one day, the System told him that there was something going on between him and Imperial Tutor Jun Heng.

???

Am I shipping myself?

Whatever, I'll ship it first and ask questions later!

From the pursuing partner's perspective:

In the late years of the previous emperor's reign, suspicion ran rampant in court, and everyone was on edge. After a rebellion, the Great Yu Dynasty was left with just one heir.

Jun Heng was ordered to bring the sole surviving young prince back to the palace.

Little did he know that this would be the beginning of his downfall...

[Bian Yu, the pursued partner x He Xun, the pursuing partner]

Pursuing partner: Quietly becomes the kind of person his future wife likes.

Pursued partner: Who said I don't like you?

For his first-ever blind date, Bian Yu arranged to meet someone at a Hong Kong-style cafe.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang. You're wonderful, but we're not right for each other."

Nearby,

"What are you looking at? Let's go!"

Young He Xun looked away, his heart thumping.

He's so handsome,

he thought.

Half an hour later,

He Xun, lost in thought, went out to the terrace to get some air.

The man was still there, leaning against the railing, with cool eyes and a chilly voice.

"I'm not considering that for now."

"As for the future... someone around my height, around my age, with a steady personality."

"I wouldn't mind supporting him, either."

The boy's palms grew damp, and his heartbeat grew more frantic.

Eavesdropping is wrong.

But I think I've fallen in love with him at first sight.

But...

A little over twenty years old, around 180 centimeters tall, steady personality, ordinary family.

The eighteen-year-old high school boy, 190 centimeters tall and wearing a watch worth a million, compared himself to the man:

Yeah.

I don't match at all.

He lost his nerve.

From then on, the man took up residence in the boy's heart.

If I don't match his criteria physically, I can make up for it in other ways.

Watching the man grow more and more dazzling, He Xun added all sorts of conditions of his own to the ideal type he'd heard about.

Handsome, with an eight-pack.

Excellent grades.

Can scuba dive, ride horses, and skydive.

And knows how to solve an eight-layer Rubik's Cube.

The requirements grew year after year. The only thing that never changed was his wholehearted devotion.

Three years later, the two met again.

At the same Hong Kong-style cafe.

He Xun handed over the seventh version of his blind-date resume, filled out over three days and nights, desperately holding back his words.

Pick me!

I'm your ideal type.
