Long Live the Crown Prince

【Recommended by a reader: After Becoming the Villain's Inner Demon, by Wen Sang】 In the thirtieth year of the Chu Yuan era, the frontier celebrated a great victory, and Shang Que returned to the capital with his army. After the victory banquet ended, Shang Que, newly enfeoffed as Marquis Weiyuan, infiltrated the Eastern Palace of the Crown Prince. Shang Que: “Your Highness, we have not seen each other for many years, and you have not even sent me a single letter. You have truly broken my heart.” Chu Sui: “Get away! Do you know this is punishable by death?!” Shang Que held his wrist and leisurely began removing the obstructive garments from his body. How could the pampered Crown Prince possibly be a match for Shang Que, who had practiced martial arts for years? * The court was full of hidden currents, with troubles at home and abroad. “Everyone knows that I am nothing more than a dog at Your Highness's side.” “As long as Shang Que is here, Your Highness need not worry.” “What does Your Highness think?” Chu Sui expressionlessly loosened his robes, climbed onto Shang Que's shoulder, and offered him a kiss. Shang Que: “Tomorrow, I shall send troops to reclaim the lost territory. Your Highness, please do not forget that when you ascend the throne, you are to marry this marquis and make him your empress.” * Shang Que's army went off to war, and word spread from the Eastern Palace that the Crown Prince was gravely ill. The court was unsettled, and the factions fought without end. “Has His Highness the Crown Prince ever allowed a man to attend his bed?” Chu Sui's face turned horribly grim. He pressed a sword to the man's neck. “How dare you!” The imperial physician broke out in a cold sweat. “I was reckless, Your Highness! I beg Your Highness's forgiveness!” Chu Sui: “What illness do I actually have?” Imperial Physician: “Your Highness's pulse seems to indicate that you are pregnant...” “What did you say?!” The imperial physician was so frightened that he dared not raise his head. “Your Highness the Crown Prince, this is a pregnancy pulse!” * The former emperor died after a prolonged illness. On the day Chu Sui ascended the throne, the capital became a land of blades and flames, resembling hell on earth. Shang Que brought several thousand cavalrymen to rescue the emperor. “Shang Que arrived late to rescue Your Majesty! I deserve ten thousand deaths!” Chu Sui lowered his eyes to the pregnant belly concealed beneath his imperial robes and slowly spoke: “You certainly do deserve to die.” The cold, proud Crown Prince × the mad, obsessive Marquis Weiyuan who is like a rabid dog Reading Guide: ① All settings in this work are original and are not based on real people; ② Both leads are sexually inexperienced, there is no role reversal or switching, their roles are fixed, and this is a pregnancy story, though the pregnancy will not be described in detail. Recommended historical danmei pre-publication title: The Young Marquis Is Pretending to Be Frail Again Synopsis: In his previous life, Song Hanyu died on the day of his wedding. He never expected to be reborn. He was reborn before his mother, the Grand Princess, fell gravely ill and died, while his father was still the Great General Who Guards the North. In other words, he was reborn during the height of the Song family's glory. Song Hanyu came to his senses completely. He was determined to preserve the Song family's glory forever and keep it standing tall. * Song Hanyu had been frail from birth, as everyone in the capital knew. He had been raised in the palm of the Grand Princess's hand, dressed in fine clothes and fed on delicacies, knowing nothing of worldly affairs. In this life, Song Hanyu took the initiative. He would not let off a single one of those hiding in the shadows and plotting against the Song family. * The Young Master of the Changchun Marquis's Residence had kicked him while he was down in his previous life, wishing he could climb to power by stepping on his bones. In this life, as Song Hanyu passed him, his legs suddenly gave way, and he fell to the ground. He lowered his head, tears glistening in his eyes. “Go back and tell my mother that Young Master Lin certainly did not do it on purpose.” * The second son of the Earl's Residence was secretly involved with the Third Prince, yet kept it perfectly hidden from him. Song Hanyu deliberately caught the two in the act, then pretended to vomit blood and faint. Early the next morning, the Grand Princess led her people to the gates of the Earl's Residence to demand justice for him. * The Third Prince invited him to settle things privately. During their argument, Song Hanyu deliberately fell into a pond. Rescued by the Chief Minister, he nearly lost half his life. That very day, the Grand Princess cried herself hoarse before the Empress Dowager, while his father, the Great General Who Guards the North, repeatedly submitted memorials requesting his return to the capital. * In secret, Song Hanyu had already set his sights on the Chief Minister, who stood at the pinnacle of the court and wielded power throughout the realm. Liu Yeyi gripped the beauty's chin in his arms, eagerly trying to kiss his lips. Song Hanyu gently resisted. “My health is poor. I'm afraid I cannot serve Your Excellency.” Liu Yeyi gave a soft laugh. “Then let me serve the Young Marquis.” The sickly, scheming, seemingly innocent young marquis uke × the ruthless, all-powerful Chief Minister seme Theme: Advancing step by step toward the summit
