The Future Crown Prince Clings to Me, Calling Me Mother

Li Ruyi was an overlooked princess who received no affection. Her princess mother doted on her elder sister, and her Minister of Revenue father favored his youngest son. She alone was unloved by her parents and was raised by servants from childhood.

Then, during an outing, a little boy fell from the sky. Innocent, adorable, and mischievous, he saw her and immediately followed her around calling her "Mother." She couldn't chase him away or shake him off.

The little boy held Li Ruyi's personal jade pendant and insisted that she would one day become his dear mother.

That would have been one thing, but most importantly, Li Ruyi discovered that the little boy was dressed in the robes and crown of the current crown prince!

If what the little boy said was true, wouldn't she become empress in the future? Wouldn't she also give birth to the current crown prince?

The little crown prince added, "Father loves Mother most. You're the only one in his harem. My tutor says this is like drawing water from three thousand streams and drinking from just one cup."

Well, the empress was the sole favorite, too!

Li Ruyi touched her own lovely, otherworldly face and decided it wasn't entirely impossible.

She just didn't know whether her future husband would be her mighty, imposing eldest imperial brother, her gentle and refined second imperial brother, or her eccentric, gloomy third imperial brother.

Oh, how difficult to choose...

At the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, she dressed the little boy as a girl and smuggled him into the palace.

"Good boy, point out your dear imperial father to Mother. I'll give you osmanthus candy when we get home."

Li Ruyi stroked the little crown prince's round head and spoke softly.

The little crown prince raised his head from his plate, looked past everyone, and fixed his eyes directly on the high platform.

His mouth fell open, and his childish voice rang out clearly: "Father! I'm over here!"

Li Ruyi looked up. The silver chopsticks fell right out of her hand in fright.

The person the little boy had called out to was none other than her... Imperial Uncle, the Emperor!

PS: The little crown prince is the heroine's son, and he transmigrates to her side.

The couple are uncle and niece, but they are not blood-related.

The daughter is the most beautiful. The male lead, the emperor, is not a virgin, and there is an age gap. If that bothers you, please don't read.
