Why Hasn't the Protagonist Started a Rebellion Yet?

"A Peaceful World" is a classic male-centered progression novel from a male-oriented web-fiction site. It tells the story of Li Chengze's rise from a general's son to a ruler in a time of chaos, and his eventual conquest of the land.

Back then, Xie Wenqing stayed up for three nights straight and devoured the whole thing in one sitting. He couldn't stop raving about how satisfying it was!

Then he woke up from a nap and found himself transmigrated into a book, as the foolish emperor who gets taken out by the protagonist early on with a single slash.

And the protagonist would be forced into rebellion in less than six months!

Xie Wenqing considered himself nothing more than a naive, clueless college student. Faced with an inevitable fate he couldn't change, he decided to lie flat.

Looking on the bright side, dying at the protagonist's hands wouldn't be so bad QAQ. After all, the guy was his idol!

Maybe once he died, he'd even go back to his own world?

Having talked himself into it, Xie Wenqing settled in to enjoy his six-month emperor experience pass.

But he never expected a plotline that wasn't in the novel to happen from the start. While hunting in the countryside, he was ambushed and plunged off a cliff with a stranger.

To make matters worse, they'd both been drugged with something unspeakable.

To renew his emperor experience pass, Xie Wenqing had no choice but to spend the night with the stranger.

Then one day, Xie Wenqing realized something seemed to be moving in his belly!

He summoned the imperial physician for an examination, only to discover that he was pregnant!!!

Oh my god, how was this male-oriented novel about a male protagonist secretly an mpreg novel too!

For the sake of the child in his belly, Xie Wenqing decided to fake his death when the protagonist rebelled!

But with the six-month deadline fast approaching, Xie Wenqing rubbed his increasingly large belly and fretted in a panic.

Why hadn't the protagonist rebelled yet?!

If he didn't rebel soon, Xie Wenqing would give birth!

In the end, Xie Wenqing never saw the protagonist rebel. Instead, the child's father showed up.

Only then did Xie Wenqing realize that he didn't even know the child's father's name.

The child's father: "My surname is Li, and my given name is Chengze."

Xie Wenqing: ? Wait, why does that name sound so familiar...

Xie Wenqing, finally catching on: Run!

#What do you do when you transmigrate into a book, sleep with the male lead, and get pregnant with his child?!#

Li Chengze had thought the night beneath the cliff would be a one-time accident, never imagining that he would be so deeply drawn to that figure.

He even fell hopelessly in love.

But one day, that person disappeared without a word. Li Chengze searched all of the capital and still couldn't find him.

Then one day, when he was summoned to the palace for an audience, he saw his family's heirloom jade pendant resting on the steps before the throne.

Li Chengze: ? How did my beloved become the emperor?!

#What do you do when your beloved disappears, becomes the emperor, and runs away while pregnant?!#

Reader's Guide:

1. Mpreg with a runaway pregnancy (he runs away twice). If that's not your thing, don't read!

2. Each is the other's first love, 1v1, both virgins.

3. Not a serious political intrigue novel. The political machinations serve the romance.

4. The leads' names are taken from a line in the "Songs of Chu": "I hear of Chi Song's pure legacy, and wish to inherit the principles he left behind."
