The Tyrannical General's Pregnant Wife

Innocent, gentle husband X stern, taciturn general. The general is ten years older.

General Pei had won countless military honors and was known as a great warlord of a troubled age. He had fought on the battlefield since he was fourteen, rising to the highest ranks through his achievements despite having no family connections or backing.

The vast rear residence of the Pei estate was empty. They said he had never even taken a concubine.

Even the emperor wanted to send one of his daughters to his estate and make him a son-in-law.

General Pei only said, “My wife is timid. Taking care of him is enough for me.”

The emperor puzzled over it. When had the general acquired a wife in this vast capital, in that grand and beautiful Pei residence?

General Pei replied, “He entered my household twelve years ago. He’s now old enough to marry.”

Twelve years earlier, General Pei had brought back a male slave from Loulan. The boy had been chained by the legs for years and could not walk. He had looked so pitiful on the battlefield that Pei took him in and adopted him.

They said male slaves from Loulan were all born of demons.

The boy had been out of touch for years, and people had assumed he was dead. It turned out he had been kept as a songbird in the Pei residence.

General Pei was ten years older than his wife.

When his wife was six, he cried in General Pei’s arms and called him “Father” while delirious with a high fever.

After that, he grew up in the general’s arms.

Because his legs were weak, the general couldn’t take him along when he went out. So he secretly practiced walking at home, hurting both legs in countless falls without saying a word.

He wanted to go out with Father, too.

But General Pei wouldn’t let him suffer like that, and confined him to a small world of his own, forbidding him from setting foot outside.

General Pei had intended to raise him as a son. But after the child he had raised in his arms had grown up, his soft cheek pressed against the general’s neck as he asked, “The emperor arranged a marriage for you... Will you arrange one for me?”

General Pei realized that the boy might have grown up and wanted to fly away, while he had never even considered the possibility of letting him go.

This was the child he had brought home from the battlefield.

On their wedding day, red candles decorated the entire Pei residence.

The first thing General Pei taught his wife after he came of age was this: “I’m not your father, and I’m not your older brother. I’m your husband.”

“Zhaozhao, I’m your husband.”

Zhaozhao obediently practiced in his arms: “Pei Lang, you’re my husband.”

My Husband Is a Tyrant by Yao Tianyi

Jiang Sheng had lived a charmed life.

The only hardship he’d ever known was iced Americano.

His parents doted on him, and his older brother took care of him.

He married his childhood sweetheart right after graduating from college.

He sighed, “Honey, I’ve had it so easy.”

But then, disaster struck.

His husband died in a car accident, and Jiang Sheng became a young widower overnight. He cried all day and all night until, while taking a bath, he slipped into the tub in a daze and went glug-glug-glug.

He kicked the bucket and went off to join his husband in bliss.

When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Sheng had transmigrated to the Great Qian and become a pitiful pawn sent away by his family.

He was to marry the infamous Northern Pacification Prince, known for his violent temper.

Jiang Sheng cried, protested, and threatened to hang himself.

How could he marry someone else? He already had a husband!!

His protests were useless. His hands and feet were tied with red silk, and he was bundled off to the prince’s manor.

He cowered in a corner, his face soaked with tears. Suddenly, he heard a door open, followed by a man’s cold, disgusted voice: “Throw him out and dispose of him.”

A few servants answered and came to grab Jiang Sheng. In the chaos, he looked up, saw the Northern Pacification Prince’s face, and froze.

Dazed, he said, “Honey?”

Little scene 1*

The Northern Pacification Prince was murderous and volatile. People said the pitiful young man sent by the Jiang family would be lucky to last three days.

But less than half a month later, the prince had obtained an imperial edict to marry Jiang Sheng.

The courtyard was piled high with jade and precious treasures. Servants stood outside the curtains with trays, holding their breath as they listened to the prince gently coaxing someone.

“Baby, I was wrong. I’ll listen to you next time. If you say stop, I’ll stop. Good boy, let me massage your back again.”

“I had them make ice cream. Try some.”

Little scene 2*

After the Northern Pacification Prince became emperor, Jiang Sheng became empress.

Everyone in the court knew the emperor was cold and brutal, killing people at the slightest provocation. So whenever something came up, they went to the empress and cried for help.

But the doors of the Qian Kun Palace were shut tight. The empress, who had come to plead for a court official, was being held down on the dragon throne, his robes hiked up. Eyes red, he pitifully wrapped his arms around his legs and spread them open.

Waaah... He didn’t want to be empress anymore! What a sacrifice!
