Finished the disabled tyrants beloved pet the other day. Let it be known it really is not as weird as people make it out to be.

anyways fish husband au where li yu hatereads the disabled tyrant and his delicate concubine webnovel because he has a deaf younger sister and hates the way everyone in the novel treats prince jing and how they refuse to make accommodations for him. so he's solely holding out for the payoff of prince jing becoming a tyrant and destroying everyone who's wronged him.

so when he suddenly transmigrates to the world of the webnovel, he immediately takes the opportunity to get some sweet sweet catharsis and enters the prince's household as a concubine in order to use his knowledge of the novels to help prince jing on his path to becoming emperor

li yu doesn't really expect to fall in love with prince jing and he knows that the prince is eventually going to meet and fall in love with chu yanyu, but his good looks are the only thing he really has going for him in this world so he figures what's the harm in enjoying some good sex and some pampering from the prince? all he cares about is helping prince jing on his warpath

li yu is fluent in sign language because of his sister, so as he starts getting closer to prince jing, he starts teaching him some signs here and there - it starts off simple, with words that he uses often, things like "food", "water", "paper", and a name sign for wang xi. prince jing picks up the signs with startling ease, and as time goes on, the two of them are able to hold more and more complex conversations.

wang xi watches from the sidelines, and sees the way that his prince warms up little by little the more time he spends with li yu, and how much good it does prince jing to have someone around that he can converse with easily.

so with prince jing's blessing, wang xi enlists li yu's help to teach the rest of the jingtai household sign language as well. the servants all jump at the opportunity to be more useful to their master, and when prince jing sees how much effort his servants put into being able to communicate with him properly, he starts opening his heart more to them. he becomes fiercely protective of them, not tolerating any disrespect towards his household members, and this ends up earning him their undying loyalty.

as time goes on, the emperor begins to notice how formidable prince jing is, now that he has a way of easily and efficiently communicating with other people, and when he sees the way that prince jing inspires loyalty in his household, when he sees servants refuse to betray their master when faced with blackmail and bribery from the other princes, he realises that his ideal heir has been right under his nose this entire time.

li yu, meanwhile, is surprised at how much his presence alone has vastly altered the plot of the novel. he hadn't been expecting to fall in love with prince jing, but when he sees the way that prince jing's eyes glaze over chu yanyu during what was supposed to be the big "love at first sight" moment, li yu can't help but feel somehow vindicated. so maybe he doesn't get the catharsis of the warpath, but he's more than happy with this sweet courtship and his husband's peaceful ascension to the throne.
