Wang Feichi transmigrated into a book as a powerful minister.
But he didn't want the job.
Was being a powerful minister really so great? You'd break your back for no thanks, and all that effort would just wear you down.
Besides, being the son of a powerful minister was much better than being one yourself.
His father waved a little handkerchief. "Son, your father isn't capable enough."
Or he could be the younger brother of a powerful minister.
His older brother cupped a hand to his ear. "Huh? What did you say? I can't hear you."
Wang Feichi realized his family was no help at all, so he broadened his horizons and looked elsewhere.
Then he set his sights on Lord Bo next door.
But they weren't related. Why would Lord Bo agree to be his patron?
Wang Feichi's brain turned. He could just ask him to be his godfather!
Later, the mighty Lord Bo often had a little kid clinging to his leg, impossible to shake off.

Bo Yiyun was coming home from court when a little boy blocked his way and said worriedly, "Uncle, I'm a switched-at-birth kid too. If they kick me out, I won't have anywhere to live. What do you think I should do?"
The recent case of the real and fake heirs of the Duke of Zhenguo's household had caused such a stir in the capital that every family was growing suspicious.
Bo Yiyun heard the officials complain about it every day. He hadn't expected a little boy to be troubled by it too.
Thinking of how the three members of the family next door looked like they had been carved from the same mold, there was no way their child had been switched at birth.
Before he could reply, the little boy added, "Uncle, do you think I might be your child?"
...The Duke of Zhenguo's household had indeed switched children with the family next door.
The little boy grew more and more certain. "I've always thought I don't look like Wang Xingduan. Look how handsome I am. I obviously take after you."
Oh, so now he wasn't calling him Dad? Did Wang Xingduan know how devoted his son was?
Bo Yiyun: "..."
He wanted a son too, but he needed the ability to have one first.
Wait. If he took the little boy home now, wouldn't he have a son?
