Adding viewController as subview Swift Not showing any component

Question

I create a view controller vc in storyboard and place a View1 on it and add all constraint to it. Now I want to add a vc as a subview. I use this code :

let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("LeftMenuListIdentifier")      
self.view.addSubview(vc.view)

vc controller's add as subview to my current controller but it does not show any subview of vc controller'view means View1.

If I push vc controller to my current view controller then it shows View1.

self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)

Please suggest what should I do . I want to add a view controller from storyboard as a subview.

what do you mean? do you want to make your child viewcontroller as rootviewcontroller? or do you to add your childviewcontroller to navigation hierarchy?
