In the seventh year of Chengshun, the Emperor fell seriously ill and, on his deathbed, passed the throne to Crown Prince Luoshen. At the same time, he made a request: that the son of the General of the State, Gu Xingzhi, assist him in his rule. However, Gu Xingzhi disliked palace life and had left the palace at the age of eight, never returning since.

Luoshen was not pleased with this request, but the Emperor’s decision was final, so he had no choice but to agree.

On the eve of the enthronement ceremony, Luoshen received secret information that Gu Xingzhi had returned to the capital. He disguised himself and left the palace to meet him privately.

However, instead of meeting Gu Xingzhi, he encountered a handsome and heroic swordsman who had been drugged and in distress. Luoshen, out of compassion, ended up spending a night with him.

The next day, Luoshen returned to the palace in a disheveled state before Gu Xingzhi could awaken. Unfortunately, he had to deal with official matters in such a state.

To make matters more complicated, Luoshen discovered that the swordsman he had encountered was none other than Gu Xingzhi himself.

The court officials praised Gu Xingzhi, lauding his strength and romantic qualities, and their love story was well-known throughout the realm.

But Luoshen thought to himself, “Forget it, he still scolded me for being useless today.”

That night, Luoshen had a nightmare in which Gu Xingzhi found out the truth and reacted negatively to him.

When he woke up, he felt unwell and nauseous. The imperial physician conducted a careful examination and then turned pale.

Upon hearing the diagnosis, Luoshen didn’t have time to argue before experiencing another bout of nausea, confirming his pregnancy.

Luoshen thought to himself, “Oh dear, this is a mess.”
