Months ago, the newly appointed prefect of Yangzhou indulged his brother-in-law in bullying men and seizing women, suppressing local wealthy merchants. As a prominent magnate family, Gu Yanling's household was the first to be devoured.

Not only that, when his father called, he was humiliated in every possible way. Gu Yanling, who had always been accustomed to having his way in Yangzhou, had never suffered such grievances before. It was simply too much!

He was troubled by his inability to deal with them until he discovered that the prefect was fawning over a handsome, aloof, and remarkably distinguished man, treating him with extreme deference. Guessed that this person must be a highly influential figure from the capital.

Damn it! He should have passed the imperial examination, joined the cabinet, and become a prime minister to behead such a deceitful, sycophantic, and fickle official! Then he recalled his tutor's comment that his essays were utterly unreadable.

Gu Yanling: ... Haha, joining the cabinet is ten thousand times harder than sleeping with a man and getting him to use pillow talk to have that dog official beheaded. Hmm?! Pillow talk?

The next day, Gu Yanling disguised himself with an extremely ordinary face and sneaked into the man's mansion as a servant. Even if he couldn't use pillow talk, he would be the most favored servant! Day after day, he'd act cute and clever, calling out "Young Master, long, Young Master, short," using every trick in the book to entice the man.

Hu Jiawei, as the Yangzhou prefect's brother-in-law, was accustomed to everyone catering to him. Yet, in a restaurant, a plain-looking young man splashed wine on his clothes. Before he could react, the young man put his hands on his hips, raised his eyebrows, and loudly demanded, "You blind, heartless wretch, how dare you spill your grandpa's wine!" He then turned and fled.

Hu Jiawei led his thugs in pursuit, shouting, "If I don't strip your skin today, you won't know who's in charge in Yangzhou!" As soon as he spoke, he saw the influential figure, whom his brother-in-law bowed and scraped to, standing there.

The young man then tearfully exaggerated, "Young Master, save me! He just shouted at me and threatened to flay me for merely spilling a bit of wine on him!" Hu Jiawei: ...???

That high and mighty figure, who never gave his brother-in-law a proper glance, actually listened to this. His icy, piercing gaze fixed on Hu Jiawei, instantly making his knees buckle and his clothes drenched in sweat. Petitions detailing the prefect's crimes flew like snowflakes before the influential figure.

Soon, the prefect was dismissed and investigated, and his wicked brother-in-law was also thrown into jail. The people of Yangzhou cheered unanimously. Gu Yanling was about to retire successfully, never expecting the man to want to marry him.

Gu Yanling: ??? No, no need! We just slept a few times, you really don't need to be too responsible! Fearing he'd expose the truth, Gu Yanling fled Yangzhou city overnight.

Four months later, he looked down at his slightly bulging belly. Gu Yanling: ? After taking his pulse. ??? He's pregnant! He's a man! How can he be pregnant?!

Xiao Xinghan, the Crown Prince of the current dynasty, had always been restrained, polite, and ascetic. While recuperating in Yangzhou, he was constantly harassed and seduced by an ignorant servant.

At first, he coldly let it happen, curious to see where such an ordinary person got such confidence. Under the other's calculated and cunning charm beneath a docile exterior, day after day, he found himself falling for him, unable to control himself. He accepted his fate.

He only wanted to bring the person back to the capital and seek his imperial father's decree to grant him the title of Crown Prince Consort, even if he had to override all objections. However, the person who had been intimately with him just the night before was gone the next day.

He searched all over Yangzhou, but the person had vanished as if into thin air. Until he saw, in the capital, a stunningly beautiful face, calling friends and riding past on horseback, her eyes and demeanor, every frown and smile, strikingly similar to the person he had long sought.

Gu Yanling's father had a large business and moved the whole family to the capital, living a life of leisure. Who would have thought that the man he had provoked back then was actually the current Crown Prince! And they just so happened to meet on the street, and he was forcefully taken before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Gu Yanling tried to remain composed. The Crown Prince's gaze carried scrutiny: "You... you resemble my deceased wife." Gu Yanling looked utterly innocent: "Your Royal Highness, you must be joking. Who in the capital doesn't know that you are not yet married, and the position of Crown Princess is still vacant?"

The other's dangerous voice rang out: "Speaking like that, you resemble her even more." Gu Yanling: ... Wuwu, it's over, it's over. He wouldn't dare admit that he was the one who deceived and played with the Crown Prince back then, and then left him. He certainly couldn't let the Crown Prince know that he had also given birth to a little imperial prince!!

This is a fictional setting, and features an older male lead (nian shang), 1v1, with only each other, and a sweet story.
