Qiu Xilu transmigrated to the Great Xia Dynasty and became the heir of the Marquis of Western Chu, as well as the Crown Prince's study companion!
The good news: The Crown Prince valued him highly! As soon as he transmigrated, Qiu Xilu became the Crown Prince's top supporter!
The bad news: The Crown Prince was the late emperor's son. The current emperor was merely using him to play political games with the ministers, and sooner or later he would depose the Crown Prince and install his own son. In truth, Qiu Xilu was the only member of the Crown Prince's faction!
His father also wanted to use him to prove his loyalty to the current emperor, so from the start, he had Qiu Xilu thrown in jail!
Wasn't that just a complete disaster?
But everyone at court knew Qiu Xilu was on the Crown Prince's side. There was no way for him to jump ship.
If so, then the only way to survive was to go all in and help his good brother ascend the throne!
But as they struggled together, the Crown Prince began looking at him more and more strangely.
"Good brother, you smell so nice!"
"Qiu Xilu, is the Crown Princess beautiful? The child she's carrying is actually yours!"
"Come on, man, you're the one who found all my wives for me. What are you playing at?"
Cheng Yu!
You did whatever it took to protect yourself, disguising yourself as a man and turning me into a despairing straight guy. Fine, I can let that slide!
But after you took the throne, you dropped the act and insisted on marrying me. What was that about? Have you forgotten that when we first rose up, you found me a wife and I married her?
Now you're pulling this on me, and I don't know if I can take it!
