Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

His Mother was tormented to death from prolonged drugs poisoning , his father thought to send him away to a small village (Zhuangzi) in Jing Jiao so he could serve his filial duty to his mother (mourning), everyday he was bullied by servants. Xu Chang An, in this life, he could only watch the little man (villain) who had harmed his mother and was being depressed living in the small village. However, he did not expect to suddenly be given a wedding decree from the emperor to make him become the wife (Wangfei) of the first prince, Xiao Qing Yan.

He knew in his heart that this matter was his salvation but to Xiao Qingyan, who has a great prospect, this was a disaster. After the great wedding, he took advantage of his new status to avenge his mother and himself. Xu Chang An was aware of the emperor’s intention that time when he was sanctioned a marriage, he all along tried his utmost to support Xiao Qingyan. Until by a lucky coincidence that the imperial government rewarded him, who’d performed great merit. The emperor promised to fulfill his wish, Xu Chang An without hesitation knelt down to request imperial decree to accomplish Xiao Qing Yan’s greatest wish.

“Your servant have no other request, please Your Majesty to bestow decree to allow your servant leave His Highness peacefully. Thank Your Majesty’s benevolence. Long live the emperor, long live for thousand of years.”

[EDIT]

I freaking love the ending!! So adorable. 4 stars!!!

****

... more>> This novel is too tame, I'm telling you. If you're looking for a rollercoaster drama, this is not for you.

The plot is good, but this is REALLY a slow burn romance. It really tested my patience but the way ML and MC develops their feelings for each other is so natural it makes me feel so fluffy.

I also like ML and MC's characters. Not OP, not overbearing, and muddle headed idiots. It's just like, watching two regular people slowly and naturally fall in love.

Oh, but the translation and transition is really confusing, made me feel lost multiple times. <<less

This story truly test on my patience. I don't know if it's the translation or if the original text is problematic, reading it is just painful. I probably missed a lot of context as well. The translator however, does good job in explaining idioms and such. I guess I just dislike the text.

The MC is lovable but he made an err that could be blown up on his face spectacularly and I just despair on how things will go in the later chapters. Those who have completed reading said... more>> that it's a nice story so things probably goes better as the story goes on. I, however, don't feel much motivation to read more. So someday, maybe...

I do like the ML. He's understandably upset at the start having to marry a man, but as the story progress be shows a gentlemanly side to him so I'm glad. <<less

The idea is interesting, right?

MC is quick to plot and make the guillotine as soon as the chance is there. The only thing to do is wait and see. I love how MC is not weak with those that wronged him (the family), and his feeling not changing.
His feeling for ML will come slowly and it's good imo.

ML character is sooo confusing in the beginnning. Dunno if it's the translation, but I was super confused reading ML. ML is gay I think, but ofc they all wont address this so we wont XD

It's light tone down of the revenge theme in ancient chinese kingdom with the whole married and is hated by the husband then involve in his politic ambition story. But in BL flavor.

So, dont expect a lot of detail of the non-related situation, the lack of further explanation on several issues and personality of the characters.

Also....I hate to write this, but the translation was a bit.... confusing. Several times, I was 'wait.... how/what/why...?? where's the missing scene!? I dont understand this!'

However, it's done deal, just skip all the confusion, and anything and just move forward. Keep reading and enjoy what we can get.

I wanna say this novel is a 3.5 at most but it was rather enjoyable so I rounded it up to 4. I'm not sure if the translations are mtl but some of the intended meaning was lost in translation. It's not a big issue though. MC in this story is a little different from others. Usually with palace stories, the MC is either very scheming or silly but lovable. MC is neither; he is kind, intelligent, innocent and tends to give the benefit of doubt to other characters.

ie. His maid and ML

[collapse]

I really liked that he maintained his innocence and kind heart throughout the novel.

Spoiler

ML falls in love with him because of that, and works hard to keep him that way by sheltering him from the schemes of the palace.

[collapse]

There aren't any complicated plots in the story, but it's interesting enough to keep me reading till the end. Plus, the way it all unfolds feels very smooth. I didn't see the Mpreg tag so maybe that felt a little abrupt but it works for this story. Overall, I wouldn't say that this novel is very memorable, but it's a nice distraction and the interaction between MC and ML made me feel warm inside. It's the perfect story for a relaxing afternoon. <<less

That was a very, very enjoyable read. I took 1 star off because the story left some questions unanswered at the end, and the translation got rather confusing once in a while. But other than that, highly enjoyable and I really like how 'mature' the characters were - no pointless drama or temper tantrums. Recommended if you're after romance that build up slowly.

I really liked this story a lot. Although it's light, the plot is interesting and the ending is very satisfying. While reading it I was always remembering another novel that I thought it was quite similar (Forced to Marry the Enemy Prince) I really recommend it if you like this one

There's not a lot of action or drama in this story.

The main idea of the novel itself was pretty good actually, but it went slowly downhill. Lots of potential deep down dog blood plots actually, like why his brother from same mother and father wants to kill his blood brother despite their relationship is okay.

The romance is not bad, however, the MC actually doesn't do anything to get rich and honorable by himself. He's purely reliant on others to get anywhere and struggles to take any initiative by himself.

It was a waste of time reading this, I just felt disgusted and bored and my mood wenr downhill

It is very sad to see this young man, treated like this, really no one should be, to lose your future and live in shame as a member of someone's else residence depending on there love to live, giving no opinion on the marriage, and then very naturally yeilding like this, I cant get reconcilled with the way their relationship is going, he didnt fight for his life and his future which... more>> is very shameful, brandishing his title as the " prince's wife " to get his revenge for his mom, I expected more, at least act like a man and not as a wallflower, everyone is saying wife did this sister in law did that and he is totally fine , when the ML punished his servants on a whim and made a big man like him kneel and kowtow to get them out hut he was not angry at all , I guess I will never like the disparity of statue between people in ancient time <<less

Actual rating- 4.25

My thoughts on this are in line with Luxe's review. Was good and enjoyed it despite the translation being nothing more than passable.

Recommend for a light reading.

It was pretty light and not complex. Translation at the start was really bad that I couldn't understand most of it but it became much better after ch. 20 or so on. I liked the general story but I wish we had better character development since they felt very one tone but still it was good. I liked that they just slowly fell in love and didn't fight much. This is a healthy relationship so no trigger warnings needed. If you need a light novel for passing time this one... more>> is pretty much perfect for it. <<less

I can totally understand what the people who gave 5* and 1* thinking.

Personally I liked this novel because its an easy read and despite being in ancient settings MC wasn't given any cheat except mpreg.

But I still like how realistic it was when he was scared of his bulging belly and thought of other things which are legit. I like how even when he was about to give birth MC and ML both didn't have much expectations of having a child and MC even thought of tumor lol.

I liked it... more>> how ML made MC drink abortion medicine when MC was suffering difficult childbirth (It was legit as they have many reasons to think whats inside is not really a child).

But

Despite having good stuff there are some major plotholes. I don't know if I didn't notice stuff or other people aren't just talking about it.

1. That Nanxi dragged for so many chapters but in the end it wasn't even made clear why Nanxi's master do it. As he didn't have any motive.

2. How Nanxi's master came to know enemy people and go as far as to make them spy as He was young and I don't think a prince has to scheme from 6-7 yr age. And again the qs why.

3. No backstory for some people. They appear just to make it easy for ML.

Overall not a great novel. MC and ML wasn't OP but there was a lot of plot armor.

Still I like it. It was an engaging read. <<less

it started out great, I was expecting a good plot with drama and just a tinge of doogblood but noooo

... more>>
Spoiler

what is wrong with all the damn concubines? Everyone is drooling to climb the gong's bed!

plus the MC is a useless being who can't even defend himself and keeps putting the gong on a silver plate to offer to any and every bit*h in sight!

I don't even know when the hell or how the hell they cultivated feelings!

I'm not fond of the gong either cause he keeps neglecting the shou in daylight and then climbs the shou's bed secretly at night since he's developing a damn so called plan for deceiving the enemy country plus he gave up on the throne way too easily and keeps shoving it to his not so good siblings!

I must admit it was a great read, not too fluffy but at the same time, not too drama just the right amount which made it really great and the MPREG was really a great bonus.

Quite enjoyable, more slow burn than I anticipated with a realistic approach like how ... more>>
Spoiler

ML gets 2 concubines at the beginning but no worries, nothing happens. I actually really enjoy the imperial harem plot with the scheming but with MC coming out on top. There's a bit of that here but nothing mind blowing. And while I don't like mpreg, that side plot actually wasn't too unrealistic (not like existence of ger or whatnot, but rather was a pill).

[collapse]

Minus 1 star only because felt the plot meandering towards the middle, dragging a bit towards the end, esp
Spoiler

with nan xi, who was just annoying. I prefer quicker face slapping. Her story line just got a bit annoying towards the end. And what really happened to ML's younger brother? Did I read too fast and missed it? Because he was a little brat.

[collapse]

But despite the cliche starting point, I felt a bit refreshed by how realistic and slow burn it was. <<less

This novel is a sweet and warm one. Don't really have a big and twisted plot on it, but the story is enjoyable for me from the first chapter till the end.

I like how the author gave answers on every character's action, although at first I was confused as to why the MC was forced to marry the supposed to be a crown prince with no rhyme and reason. But then, it is good that in the latter part it was answered.

I also love the balance between the plot and... more>> the slow romance of the characters. It may have a tag of slow-burn romance but rest assure, you don't really have to wait that long. Also, I love that despite the slow romance, there is not much of misunderstanding. Cause I just hate it when the author put unnecessary misunderstandings just for the sake of it.

The only thing that I want answers from this novel is the part where the MC gave birth to their son. The author didn't give many in-depth details about it. But still, it didn't really bother me, It's more like I am curious than bothered.

Lastly, I love the CP of this novel. Super love them both. I love how the ML is not domineering unlike the other type of ML. In short, I just love their story and I love their type of happy ending.

P.S. The translation is not edited but it's not MTL. I mean, between the completely computer-generated translation and the translated one, you'll prefer the latter. Don't worry as the chapters go on, it's getting better so be patient. <<less

The beginning of this novel is a little depressing as it starts with our little MC being forced to marry to the star of the Empire without any rhyme or reason. However, MC doesn't seem to mind as he has been beaten by life and has few desires. This kills any aspirations ML has of becoming the emperor, and so he is understandably aloof and cold towards MC.

Over the course of the novel, the two find commonalities between them and come to love each other. There's an underlying air of... more>> mystery which is prevalent throughout the novel. Nonetheless, the actual delivery was lackluster.

Spoiler

There was tremendous build up surrounding the main antagonists but they were done away with in a matter of sentences.

[collapse]

Nevertheless, I still enjoyed the novel and their family was really cute.

Spoiler

They thought their kid was either cancer or a bunch of bugs, hahaha. Both of them were understandably terrified until a baby popped out.

Then their poor son got punished when he was older cause he kept falling asleep during his lessons because MC and ML kept rocking the bed at night so he couldn't sleep. (・□・;)

A reallty great and heart warming story. Some the chapters are true to heart and make you cry.

Chang An is a really strong person inside and out. He tried his best to survive on his own until he met Qing Yan.

The ending may had an unexpected twist but still its's good to read such a happy ending.
