After Raising a Tyrant, My Dream of Taking It Easy Was Shattered

Su Wanwan transmigrated into a palace-intrigue novel as a nameless little palace maid. She worked diligently, hoping only to keep her head down until she could leave the palace, marry an honest man, and live a quiet life. One day, she took pity on a little prince who had been abused and was on the verge of death. He was none other than the future tyrant of the book, a killer who would show no mercy even to his own family. Looking at his frail, pitiful appearance, Su Wanwan's lazy-fish DNA kicked in: This was the future emperor! If she invested in him now, wouldn't the payoff be enormous? And so she began her “Tyrant Training Plan.” When others skimped on his food and clothes, she secretly slipped him chicken legs. When others bullied him, she grabbed a brick and fought back. She taught him to read and write, and told him to keep his heart full of light. All she wanted was for him to remember her kindness after taking the throne, let her leave the palace, and reward her with ten thousand taels of gold so she could live as a happy little rich lady. The little prince grew up day by day, and the look in his eyes whenever he watched her grew stranger and stranger. At last, he ascended the throne. Su Wanwan excitedly handed in her resignation: “Your Majesty, I have reached the proper age. I humbly request permission to leave the palace…” In front of the entire court, the young emperor swept her into his arms and held her tight. His voice was as sweet as honey: “Sister, where do you think you're going? This realm is yours, and so am I. You may go anywhere you like, except my dragon bed and phoenix throne.” Su Wanwan cried. Her dream of living a lazy life had shattered into pieces. He had crawled out of hell, filthy from head to toe, and she had given him his first meal and his first taste of warmth. He could give up the throne and the world, but he could never bear to lose her. She was his obsession, his only cure.
