Synopsis

[Signed for print publication] [Two male leads + pure hatred + love and mutual destruction + political intrigue + groveling redemption + happy ending]

The day Shen Zui died, the kingdom celebrated an age of peace and prosperity.

The dashing, white-robed flower thief who wore willow leaves in his hair and roamed the martial world was, in truth, the fugitive crown prince and last heir of the fallen dynasty.

Terrifying, isn’t it?

As a long sword pierced his body, Shen Zui bit hard behind the man’s ear. His words came through blood and tears, yet he smiled: “You all say I’m delusional, but I’m going to defy Heaven itself. I’ll kill every last scumbag in this land and trample their bones beneath my feet to honor the three hundred and twenty innocent souls of my Great Sheng Dynasty!”

Blood poured from the side of the man’s neck. He lowered his eyes and said nothing, his gaze cold.

“…”

“When I ascend the throne, I’ll lock you in a dungeon and torture you every day and every night until you wish you were dead.”

Pei Xuangu finally showed a flicker of emotion. “You’re insane,” he said coldly.

Shen Zui looked at his jade-like face, cold as the King of Hell’s, and curved his lips in a smile. “You’re afraid.”

But he couldn’t do a thing.

He was dead.

When Shen Zui woke again, he was back three years in the past, on the day Pei Xuangu arrested him for picking up women in a brothel.

A voice asked him in his mind: Do you still want to overthrow the imperial regime?

Shen Zui replied: You bet!

But first, he had to get rid of this obstacle in his way.

Then he discovered that the cold-faced Buddha who had dealt him such a ruthless blow in his previous life wasn’t quite the same this time around… Still, Pei Xuangu was going in the dungeon :-D

Jiaojiao's characters in each novel are very well-developed. Commander is also the first Tomato novel I've read completely (showing the reader's love and praise for Jiaojiao). Jiaojiao's novels are simply my spiritual nourishment, so Jiaojiao, could you please update faster? I can't eat or sleep without your novels (⋟⋞)(5th day waiting for Jiaojiao's update ₍˄·͈༝· ˄*₎◞ ̑̑) I've been saving up for 15 days, and you've only updated three chapters? Jiaojiao, could you please update any slower? 🙂🙂

I've been following Jiaojiao's new books since the one about cats and fire spoons, and every single one of them has completely captivated me. Even though I don't usually read historical romance novels, these first few chapters have me thrilled! They're absolutely amazing!

His name was Shen Zui, also known as Shen Baizheng. He was of noble birth, destined to stand on that high platform. This chaotic world was unjust, the world had wronged him, and he would overthrow the world. Everyone said he was delusional, but he insisted on defying fate and overthrowing the imperial power.

Jiaojiao's new book is as good as ever. The antagonistic love and forced romance tropes still appeal to me, and there are still plenty of foreshadowing elements. I'm looking forward to the rest of the story. (Just a quick question: Jiaojiao, will there be a side couple similar to the little turtle and little cake pairing this time? 😳) At the end, I'm gently urging for more updates.

Super good!!! Jiaojiao's books not only have consistently high-quality writing, but the characters are also always very engaging!! This time it's Pei Xiaomo, who's all bark and no bite but always doting, and Shen Zuizui, who's meticulously plotting revenge!! Zui Zui is the kind of pure, crazy beauty who would use even the slightest attraction for revenge, no wonder she later resorted to coercion.

It's a good read, the writing is excellent, but it was so heartbreaking 😢😢😢. It felt like Zui Zui was betrayed her whole life, with no one ever truly choosing her 😢😢😢. However, if you only read it as a political intrigue novel, it's incredibly exciting. But if you read it as a romance novel, it's just too painful 🤦.

I absolutely love all of Jiao's books! I've loved every single one since the Commander series started in 2023, with Commander being my absolute favorite. Jiao's foreshadowing is very well done, and they're all sweet stories with a touch of angst (except for this one, which really choked me). Oh, and Jiao, what a minty summer!

This is the third book by this author that I've read. I personally think that the author must have spent just as much time on the plot and conception of this story as on the other two books, which have a 9.7 Rating. Perhaps stories that are straightforward and immediately offer sweet and satisfying characters do gain more popularity, but such stories are also worthy of praise.

Wow, the car description is fantastic, even if it's not very detailed. The later parts are so heartbreaking! Shen uses every means to try and kill Li Yong, and then Pei protects Li. I really don't understand. I just want to ask Pei, was that person someone your mother left a will to protect with her life? Shen used poison and witchcraft, yet you didn't love him that much.

The writing is as good as ever 💕 I've read all three of Jiaojiao's books. I haven't finished this one yet; it's a bit angsty in the middle. I cried so hard when I got to the part where Zuo Jiang and You Jiang died—it was heartbreaking! Good writing really makes you feel so deeply moved 😢😢😢😢😢
