Why Do All the Long Aotian Protagonists Want to Be the Crown Prince's Husband?

01

The Crown Prince of Great Chu, Chu Jixing, was dying.

He had only three months left to live.

Chu Jixing suddenly realized he was the villain in a power-fantasy novel about a Dragon-Blooded protagonist's rise to power, and the person who would kill him three months later was connected to the novel's four Dragon-Blooded protagonists.

He'd also been chosen as the sole Host of the [Villain Self-Rescue System] and given three crucial plans.

Self-rescue plan one: seduce.

Self-rescue plan two: seduce.

Self-rescue plan three: seduce again.

Chu Jixing laughed. As the Crown Prince of Great Chu, how could he possibly do...

Exactly the sort of thing that involved seducing people!

02

The Crown Prince fled, and rumors spread across Great Chu.

Some said they'd seen His Highness the Crown Prince in the room of the owner of Water Pavilion, who controlled all things. Someone had gripped his ankle and tugged him along. No one knew what they'd been doing.

Others said they'd seen His Highness in the ancestral hall of the Xue clan, a sect renowned for gathering the finest talents in the world. The Xue clan's greatest genius had actually proposed to him in public.

Some said the young lord of the demon clan seemed to have a deep relationship with His Highness as well. He served the Crown Prince day and night, and told everyone, "My wife is delicate."

Others said that the residence of the young master of the foremost noble family in Great Chu, the Si clan, was full of things the Crown Prince had used, and every night those things were washed for some inexplicable reason.

Still others said the guard at the Crown Prince's side always liked to put an arm around his waist, taking the opportunity to do things that ought not to be done.

Chu Jixing: Thanks for asking. They're just serving me diligently.

Three months after his escape, the Crown Prince was ordered by the Emperor to choose consorts.

That night, Chu Jixing sat sideways on a raised platform, his clothes disheveled, gazing at the five men in red before him. He smiled lazily.

"What, you all want to be the Crown Prince's 'consort'?"

"But according to the plot, you should be killing me right now."

After successfully faking his death according to the plot, Chu Jixing thought he'd be erased completely.

But when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a strange place.

His whole body was weak and limp. He couldn't move at all.

The red veil before him was lifted, and five men dressed in red appeared in his line of sight.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"How about we make up for our wedding night tonight?"

②

The Crown Prince's revival should have been a major event, but who could have guessed that the first thing he did upon returning was lie down for seven days and seven nights?

He was even carried by a side consort when he went to pay his respects to the Emperor.

His consorts all said the Crown Prince was delicate, but nobody knew the marks covering his body beneath his clothes.
