SGT CH76: The Tianjia Emperor is Carrying His Egg

◎Mousse led the Tianjia Emperor towards the bed◎

In the Tianjia Empire, any important political events were broadcast live.

Mousse had turned on his terminal early in the morning, entering the parliamentary channel to watch the broadcast along with the viewers in the live stream.

[Watching a live broadcast within a live broadcast, so unique.]
[I can even see the bullet comments from the Tianjia people, let me blend in.]
[The one at the very top is Brother X, right? Never seen this side of Brother X before, so domineering.]
[What’s this? The scene where Brother X came back from the battlefield and pinned Little Cake on the bed was what really shocked me back then.]
[Shocked +1, hard to imagine X, who was bullied to death by Little Cake No. 1, could have such a dominant side.]
[Brother X No. 2 is a mutated, enhanced version of No. 1.]
[Mutated so much, but the lovestruck brain hasn’t changed a bit.]

Mousse’s attention was entirely on the parliamentary broadcast, paying no mind to the discussions of the otherworldly viewers.

However, he did see some bullet comments from the Tianjia viewers.

Ever since the reading of the Male Bill began, the Tianjia bullet comments had exploded.

Most Tianjia citizens, especially unmarried Tianjia, could not accept this proposal.

『Are you kidding? Male eggs raised by their birth families? How can ordinary families take good care of fragile male cubs?』
『If males are citizens of the Empire, can we still exchange military merits for them?』
『I’ve been risking my life for decades to save military merits just to own a male of my own. Now that I’ve finally entered the matching queue, you’re pulling this on me?』
『Our great Emperor will definitely not let such a bill pass, right?』
『His Majesty previously limited the number of males nobles could own to give us more opportunities. The Emperor stands with the common people.』
『But… the one reading the bill is His Majesty’s Chief Secretary.』
『?!!』
『Could this be His Majesty’s will?』
『You can’t just not give us a way to live because you already have the best male yourself, Your Majesty!』
『Oppose the bill.』
『Oppose the bill.』
『Oppose…』

Regardless of how the public opinion boiled online, the parliament still passed the bill with 245 votes in favor, 0 against, and 55 abstentions.

Seeing this result, Mousse let out a long sigh of relief, his suspended heart finally settling down.

The Tianjia bullet comments boiled over again.

『Is there an error with the machine? 0 votes against? How is this possible?』
『Did they get it backward? Is it actually 0 votes in favor and 245 against?』
『It’s rigged, definitely rigged!』
『』
『』

There were actually no opposing votes from any member of parliament; this result also exceeded Mousse’s expectations.

The influence of the males was even greater than he had imagined.

Mousse looked at the broadcast screen.

Most of the members who voted in favor looked relaxed, some even opening their terminals to contact some Tianjia.

Those who abstained, however, frowned slightly, looking somewhat solemn.

Mousse looked towards the topmost seat and found it empty; the Tianjia Emperor had already left.

“Si Si!” The Tianjia Emperor pushed the door open and entered.

Mousse turned back in surprise, and before he could see anything clearly, he was picked up, lifted high, and spun around.

Mousse wasn’t used to this feeling of his feet leaving the ground. Panicked, he hugged the Tianjia Emperor’s head, using both hands and feet to wrap around him like an octopus, wishing he could even use his spiritual tentacles.

“Your Majesty! Put me down quickly!”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let you fall.”

The Tianjia Emperor enjoyed the feeling of being tightly wrapped by his Imperial Concubine and didn’t want to let go.

He even bounced the male in his arms, causing the Imperial Concubine to scream and hug him tighter.

“Si Si promised to be my Empress if the bill passed. You can’t go back on your word.”

The Tianjia Emperor looked up at the male wrapped around him.

Mousse wanted to go back on his word right now.

But meeting the Tianjia Emperor’s eyes filled with joy and expectation, he couldn’t say anything cruel.

“I won’t go back on my word… But implementing the bill won’t be easy.”

Even though the bill passed, public opinion in the Empire was boiling, and the government would face tremendous pressure.

The Tianjia Emperor: “It is indeed a bit troublesome, but it’s under control.”

The Tianjia Emperor himself had climbed up from the bottom step by step and understood the thoughts of the common people very well.

Tianjia females, especially military females, were actually a group that adapted very well to rules.

As long as the rules were set and they knew what to do, they would instinctively obey.

What was needed now was simply to further refine the bill and plan a clear path for them, guiding them on what to do.

Previously, males were obtained through military merits and contribution points.

So Tianjia females were a nation of soldiers.

Military females were willing to spend decades, or even a century, accumulating military merits step by step, just for a chance to own a male.

But the military merits required to obtain a male were too high.

Even for C-grade or E-grade males, ordinary military females needed to struggle for decades, let alone higher-grade males.

Males had become the most expensive thing for Tianjia.

Aircraft, houses, mechas—none were enough in front of a male.

Yet for Tianjia females, males were not “luxury goods” but “necessities.”

Even females who didn’t want to breed offspring needed spiritual grooming.

Males were necessities with luxury price tags.

To own a male, all females lived under high pressure, daring not relax in the slightest.

This also caused Tianjia life to be monotonous, with poor entertainment, like a pool of stagnant water.

Social conflicts were also growing larger under such suppression.

The Tianjia Emperor agreed to propose the Male Bill not only to satisfy the Imperial Concubine’s request but also because he wanted to take a risky path to make some changes.

The Tianjia Emperor himself didn’t know if such changes were good or bad.

But he had enough confidence in his own strength and influence.

Even if the situation became worse, he could suppress it.

The Tianjia Emperor raised his hand to gently stroke the Imperial Concubine’s back and said:
“Don’t worry, I’m here for everything. Si Si just needs to happily be my Empress.”

Mousse found it hard to be at ease.

However, he could understand the Tianjia Emperor’s approach.

Tianjia had always been dominated by female chauvinism.

Females took care of everything, and males just needed to happily be silly, sweet energy packs, hugged and sucked by females when they needed energy.

Mousse looked down at the Tianjia Emperor who was hugging and sucking him.

“…”

Even if the Male Bill was implemented, the concepts of Tianjia society couldn’t be changed overnight.

Mousse couldn’t manage such distant things.

Compared to those, he cared more about the present.

“Does Your Majesty have nothing to say to me?” Mousse asked.

Mousse had been waiting for the Tianjia Emperor to give him an explanation.

About the rejection and deception back then, about the physiological awakening, and… the egg in the Tianjia Emperor’s belly.

The Tianjia Emperor had given gifts, come to him for kisses and hugs in the middle of the night, and even passed the Male Bill.

Yet he didn’t offer a single word of explanation to him.

What was there to say to the Imperial Concubine?

The Tianjia Emperor thought seriously and said:
“On the day of the Empress’s coronation ceremony, what color crown does Si Si want to wear? White? Black? Or gold?”

“…Red.” Mousse deliberately said the opposite.

Brightly colored crowns weren’t popular among Tianjia, but the Tianjia Emperor agreed without hesitation.

“Okay, Si Si will definitely look good in red. There’s a very large ruby in the treasury that will be perfect.”

Skip this topic.

“Anything else to say?” Mousse asked.

“I want Si Si to be happy and blessed.” The Tianjia Emperor said seriously.

“…”

Hearing such near-confession words, Mousse was indeed moved, but this wasn’t what he wanted to hear right now.

Hearing the Tianjia Emperor rambling on without getting to the point, Mousse could only grit his teeth and say:
“You once rejected my invitation for physiological awakening, making me return to the Capital to accept my fate. Regarding this, do you have nothing to say?”

The Tianjia Emperor fell silent for a moment, gently placed the Imperial Concubine on the table to look him in the eye, and said in a deep voice:
“I’m sorry, Si Si. Although it’s too late to say this now and you won’t believe it, I never rejected you.”

“When you hinted that you wanted me to be your guide, I was surprised and happy, never so happy before.”

Recalling his feelings at that time, the Tianjia Emperor said somewhat shyly:
“I even thought about how many cubs we would have in the future. One or two wouldn’t be too few, five or six wouldn’t be too many.”

The Tianjia Emperor changed the subject: “But Si Si doesn’t seem to like cubs very much, so this one we have now is enough.”

The Tianjia Emperor lowered his eyes to look at his belly and said to Mousse:
“He is the eldest Prince. Once he is born, I will designate him as the Crown Prince.
“He will be very close to you and respect you. But since Si Si doesn’t like getting along with cubs, I will separate him and not let him contact Si Si.”

The Tianjia Emperor had said similar words to Mousse before.

At that time, listening to them, Mousse didn’t feel much, at most thinking the Tianjia Emperor was too strict with the cub.

Hearing them again now, it felt completely different.

The one who accompanied him through his physiological awakening was the Tianjia Emperor.

One month after his physiological awakening, he was sent into the palace and became the Tianjia Emperor’s Imperial Concubine.

At that time, the Tianjia Emperor had been pregnant for exactly one month.

On the first day he entered the palace, without even holding a wedding ceremony, the Tianjia Emperor couldn’t wait to enjoy him.

Because the egg in his belly needed pheromones.

After accepting his pheromones, the Tianjia Emperor didn’t show any discomfort.

Pregnant females would have rejection reactions when accepting pheromones from males other than the egg’s male father.

At that time, Mousse only thought that because the Tianjia Emperor was SSS-class and powerful, he could easily accept other males’ pheromones.

He never thought of another possibility at all.

The Tianjia Emperor was carrying his egg.

Mousse reached out on his own initiative for the first time, touching the Tianjia Emperor’s bulging belly.

Under his fingertips, he faintly felt a slight movement.

“Did, did it move?” Mousse shrank his hand back in fright.

The Tianjia Emperor looked strange, “It did move…”

Perhaps because the male resisted him during the physiological awakening and wasn’t willing to let him conceive.

Or perhaps because the Tianjia Emperor discovered it late, and there was no pheromone nourishment during the first month of pregnancy.

This egg was not very stable.

Although it survived tenaciously, there was no movement for a full three months.

If his belly hadn’t gradually grown, the Tianjia Emperor wouldn’t even have sensed its existence.

Today, unusually, it moved when the Imperial Concubine touched the belly.

“Was it because you picked me up just now, and I wrapped around you too tightly, pressing on the egg?”
Mousse was a little worried.

“No.”
Given the Tianjia Emperor’s physical strength, even if he lifted a heavy mecha, he wouldn’t press on the egg.

“It wants to be close to you.” The Tianjia Emperor looked complicated.

Even before being born, it started clinging to its male father.

In the future, even if the cub was separated from the Imperial Concubine, the cub would probably try every means to see his male father.

It wouldn’t be good if he scared Si Si.

The Tianjia Emperor pondered; perhaps he should build the Crown Prince’s palace as soon as possible and let the cub move out early.

“Close to me…”

Mousse bit his lower lip lightly, feeling helpless for the first time.

“Does it need pheromones?” Mousse asked softly.

“What?”

The Tianjia Emperor was surprised that Mousse brought up pheromones on his own.

“The court doctor said your pregnancy isn’t very stable. Does it need more pheromone nourishment?”

As Mousse spoke, he jumped off the table and led the Tianjia Emperor towards the bed.

Until his back touched the soft mattress, the Tianjia Emperor’s brain was in a daze.
