In Wude First Year, the Princess of Qin, Changsun Wuyou, gave birth to an egg—a Longdan.
The young Prince of Qin, Li Shimin, was utterly bewildered. Bewitched by Yuan Tiangang’s words, he carried that egg with him to the battlefield.
He fought his wars while tucking the egg into his robes. When the war turned sour and a plague ran rampant, Li Shimin, infected by the sickness, clutched the egg in the middle of the night, full of worry.
The Danke cracked, and out crawled a child no bigger than a fist, possessing Longjiao and a Da Weiba.
The child opened his Anjin de Yanjing and instantly killed the Yaoshou that had come to launch a sneak attack, then swallowed it in one gulp.
“Don’t just eat anything!” Li Shimin let out a startled roar.
He spent a long time mentally preparing himself, telling himself: Isn’t it just raising a dragon? What’s the big deal?
Even if this child was cold and aloof, so what? He could just pick him up and go, kissing him whenever he pleased.
But what did they mean by there being a Houzi who caused the Da Nao Tian Gong suppressed beneath Wuxing Mountain?
And what did they mean by the child he had raised with such difficulty actually being the Zhuan Shi of the Ancestral Dragon?
“Which Ancestral Dragon?”
“The one you’re thinking of,” Ying Zheng said calmly. “You aren’t going to cry again, are you? Is it reasonable for the Tian Kehan to be such a crybaby?”
“Is it reasonable that my child is you?”
This is a story about Second Phoenix’s daily life raising Zheng-zai, featuring plenty of Zheng-zai’s childhood years. The official pairing remains with Changsun, and the story is interspersed with elements from Xiyou and other legends.
Zheng-zai’s memories return gradually as he grows older; when he is small, he can be kissed and hugged at will.
This should count as a Yang Zai Wen… right?
Please treat this as a Pingxing Shikong. Daily updates.
Potential Landmines: The story features a plot point where the young Ying Zheng’s Duanjiao occurs in his previous life. There is a hidden reason for this; he wasn’t truly injured, and it will be explained later. The story will butterfly Li Chengqian—he does not exist from beginning to end. It will also butterfly the reigns of Li Zhi and Wu Zetian because the Taizi has changed.
