I Designed a Pregnancy with the Powerful Minister General's Child

The struggle for the throne is fierce. As Crown Prince, Xi Yin is neither favored by the emperor nor supported by his maternal family. To hold on to his position and ascend to the throne everyone covets, he has no choice but to rely on outside help.

After considering his options, Xi Yin sets his sights on Gu Yan, the notorious general of the Gu family.

A no-good bastard, born into poverty, barely educated, with no connections or backing at court. Just a shabby soldier who knows nothing but how to raise a sword and kill the enemy.

His qualifications may be poor, but at least he's stupid, easy to fool, and easy to control.

Once he's served his purpose, Xi Yin can find some excuse to get rid of him. No need to worry about him becoming a nuisance afterward.

He hears the Gu family has few heirs. It would be best if he could get the other man pregnant, too, taking control of the family's lifeline at its root.

Xi Yin's scheme is all laid out. But when he finally meets the man, he realizes just how wrong he was.

The uncouth soldier of the rumors is not only handsome and striking, with the bearing of a dragon and the grace of a phoenix, but also never without a book in his hands and eloquent in speech. He looks very hard to fool! And the way he looks at Xi Yin is just like he's eyeing some delicious prey!

But the arrow is already on the string, and must be released.

Xi Yin can only grit his teeth, playing along and putting on an act while secretly plotting his grand scheme.

But the more he plots, the less he can stand it.

"Seven times in one night is too much! Three at most!"

After climbing out from under the bed curtains in the middle of the night yet again, Xi Yin finally snaps.

The other man gives a muffled laugh, shameless as ever.

"Fine. I'll do whatever A Yin says."

Later, Xi Yin ascends the throne as planned. Everyone around him urges him to eliminate Gu Yan, the greatest threat to his power, and secure his position.

Xi Yin rubs his increasingly rounded belly, deep in thought.

Killing Gu Yan would be easy.

But killing the father of the child in his belly? He'll have to think about that.

Of course, he is the Son of Heaven. Surely he can afford to raise a little one?

Hah.

As for that dog, well, he could be sent packing.

Xi Yin thinks coldly.

Two ambitious schemers.

For you, I bow my head and pledge allegiance.
