Born in the royal family, Yan Shi has too many things that he is helpless toward.

Doesn’t matter whether he is willing or not, he has already been dragged into the battle for the throne.

But above him there’s a father who detests and rejects him, and below him there are brothers watching him like a tiger watches its prey.

Yan Shi’s every step is filled with uncertainty, afraid that with one wrong move, he would lose everything.

But just as he was about to rein in the net, his stomach actually got bigger!

Help: We’re in the midst of fighting for the throne, what should I do with my big stomach? How do I ensure no one discovers it?

Okay, I'm only on chapter 8 so I'll probably update or edit this as I go but here's the general gist I got.

The MC (Yan Shi) is the Eldest prince and is the shou in the relationship by the looks of it. He's smart enough and is a judge within the "Imperial Court of Justice" (based on the translators notes) on top of being a prince. I'm not sure if it was mentioned or not, but for some reason, Yan Shi is a prince that is not looked highly upon.... more>> In other words, he is ignored by his father, the Emperor, and is even ridiculed by his father's people.

The ML (...... wo de tian, the ML) is called Hua Ling. He is the eldest son of his family like the MC. Difference? He's a damn good actor for one! In front of his Wangye (..... or is it Wangfei in this case?) he talks like and appears like a White Lotus Flower. If I didn't read the chapters properly, then I would assume that the ML's face in front of Yan Shi and the face he wears when Yan Shi is not around would make me think that they're two different people. It's also revealed that he has a strong interest in Yan Shi.

Spoiler

The only s*x scene so far is the wedding night, and it's more or less dubcon. I say this because Yan Shi was drugged with some kind of poison that made him unable to move or talk, and while acting like a white lotus flower, Hua Ling had did Yan Shi, not really giving him a choice in the matter. Well, I say no choice, but really after getting to a certain point Yan Shi justs goes "oh, whatever." and just lets what happens happen thinking that Hua Ling is innocent (....... yeah right.). Still dubcon, and very dry s*x details that skim over the actual act

Also.....................

HOW THE HECK CAN HUA LING KEEP UP THAT ACT!!!!!???? IF I HAD TO SAY THOSE LINES HE'S SAYING IN CHAPTER 6, I WOULD BE DOUBLED OVER IN EMBARRASSMENT!!!!!!!!!!! THIS ML HAS THICK SKIN!! VERY THICK SKIN!!!!!! HE GOT WHAT I THINK HE WAS TRYING TO ACHIEVE IN THE END, BUT DAMN HE'S GOT THE THICKEST SKIN I'VE EVER SEEN!!!!!!!!!!! I KNOW YOU'RE ACTING, BUT HAVE YOU NO SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, please do something about that poetry skill of yours please. I honestly can't tell if you're acting or not!

[collapse]

Interesting read over all. Definitely give it a shot to see what you think about it~! Big shout out to Peach Blossom Dreams Translation who is translating the series and doing an amazing job at it~. <<less

Woa..! I was shocked(⊙o⊙)I was caught by surprise by ML or more like ML is really the gong????
The ML is such an actor. Omg! He acts as two different people : 1-as cute, naive innocent, kinda s*upid in front of MC and people in the palace. 2- as a bloodthirsty man, very skill in martial arts, manipulative! Such a black belly man; now big plot twist ML Hua ling... more>>
Spoiler

is a powerful person that People are afraid of in their empire : the owner and master of Shifangmen /shensheng (don't know if it is really the name, MTL mess things up a bit)..!

[collapse]
Also although He is an actor for revenge (for his mom death and abused childhood) and appears dangerous, we can all know that he won't harm MC and that is because the
Spoiler

MC once helped ML when they children and since then ML became infatuated with him and so when he learned he was going to be married to MC, one could imagine the rest.

[collapse]

MC is such a sweetheart, brave, endearing, very smart and powerful too. To be honest I think he would make a great Seme (I actually thought he was but well things turned around).
Anyway I quite like this novel : all the scum people got what they deserve, MC and ML relationship was quite good, MC pregnancy came in the 80 chapt., baby came in the late chapt., All the side couple got their happy ending, MC rose to the top, everything went good.

However I was kinda annoyed by the fact that the ML 's identity kept dragging on and sometimes his acting were bit over the top but well it didn't kill my joy for the novel so I definitely recommend, light read!

This is a really cute story about an earnest shou and his immature gong. As the disfavored first son of the emperor, MC is forced to marry what appears to be our sweet and naive little ML. Except, he's really not.

... more>>
Spoiler

ML only pretends to be this way. He's secretly a conniving master of espionage and is far stronger than the already-strong MC. On their wedding night, he utilizes his white lotus act to cement his role as the gong in a way that leaves MC confused.

[collapse]

As this is set in an imperial setting, the plot is filled with the expected schemes, harem in fighting, sibling rivalry, and the like. However, despite utilizing the usual tropes, it's interesting to see MC and ML journey across the countryside and problem solve as they try to pick up worthy retainers to replace the corrupt court.

The ending is satisfying, with everyone obtaining their own happy ending, and this is definitely one of those novels where I'm gay, you're gay, we're all gay.

Spoiler

All the side couples pair up and have kids. Then their kids end up pairing up too.

[collapse]

The extras are particularly funny for our poor childish ML.

Spoiler

He gets ratted out by his own kids, and during one of those 'who's your favorite family member' discussions, his younger son picks him... only because nobody else picked him, hahaha.

5/5 rating was a mistake, I was meaning to put a 1/5 lol (I can't be bothered to change it)

Despite the intriguing title, the story is an immense disappointment.

SPOILERS!!!

The biggest disappointment was the deception of Hua Ling. In spite of the fact that Hua Ling is a genius he just pretends to be an idiot who can't even count to 10 in front of Yan shi. In the beginning, it was understandable, but then after going through everything together, HL continued to fool him until the very end.... more>> I feel that the most important thing between a couple should be honesty and HL didn't meet this description.

And the second most disappointing was HL r*aping YS on their wedding night. Although they were married unconsented s*x is still r*pe. <<less

The story wasn't convincing and full of plot holes even at the beginning. I can't imagine a prince who has survived the trench of royal politics would be taken down so easily by someone with a bad acting skill who is also very suspicious.

He was distrustful of the ML at the beginning so why the heck did he STILL visited ML on the wedding night. Any unfavored but decently smart prince who was capable enough to survive through adulthood wouldn't have taken such s*upid action.

ML's excruciatingly bad acting of impersonating... more>> a mentally challenged genin Sakura (trust me, it was very nauseating) wouldn't even hold up against a little scrutiny from a supposedly smart MC. He could figure out the reason and relationship chart of the ML so quickly but he still fell for the trap and wasn't even angry about it. I'm so done with MC.

I don't even want to talk about the ML or I'd want to punch someone.

This novel would've been a decent read if it's BG instead, just imagine an ancient Chinese story led by a master assassin FL pretending to be a white lotus who was smitten with the unfavored but capable prince and helped him to the throne.

I can't like an insidious ML who trapped the guy he supposedly liked so much on their first night and still unrepentantly continued to deceive even after they got together.

Okay, that's my rant. I'm outta here and I'm not even gonna rate this novel because I'm rage-quitting 🙌 <<less
