(MULTI SUB) THE FADING CANDLE — CHAPTER 2 #BL #BOYSLOVE #mpreg

For years, Emperor Gu Zhaoyan refused to take a consort, choosing only his frail Empress, Shen Yuheng. But when an old agreement forces Lin Qingyu into the palace, everything begins to change. Soon after, Yuheng discovers that he is carrying the Emperor’s child. Yet the pregnancy rapidly weakens his already fragile body, while rumours spread that Qingyu and the Lin family may be hiding a dangerous plan against the throne. Unable to move freely, Yuheng begins investigating from within his own residence. In a palace filled with secrets, betrayal, and hidden loyalties, he must protect the Emperor, their unborn heir, and the future of the kingdom before his own flame finally fades.
