Mad Emperor Top × Straightforward Emperor Bottom
Quan Zhen (top) grips his waist in warning: “Smile at someone else one more time, and I'll chain you to the dragon bed.”
“I'd rather slaughter the world than betray A Yuan!”
His only weakness in this life is Chuan Xiyuan. As long as he can protect A Yuan, he has no regrets about becoming a rakshasa or a demon.
Chuan Xiyuan (bottom) stakes his life: “If I can't kill Dagu Tu, I'll put on a wedding dress and leap into the Qi River. Quan Zhen, do you dare to bet?”
Tame beasts with kisses, whip corpses with a smile!
A charming, free-spirited beauty who loves dressing up as a woman, his only wish in life is to avenge his mother.
Born under an ill-starred fate, he is the East Han prince blamed for his mother's death and his country's misfortunes.
Sent as a hostage to Southern Liang, he becomes a prince envied by everyone and cherished by the East Han emperor and his birth mother, the empress.
When Southern Liang falls into chaos, he flees back to East Han, thinking at last he will receive the affection of his parents he has longed for, and enjoy brotherly harmony.
Instead, he finds Chuan Xiyuan punished beneath the blazing sun and beaten with a rod, his other residence burned down, his benefactor dying unjustly, and his birth mother framing him...
Even the letters he treasured were merely written by a eunuch.
He had always been a pawn in the East Han emperor's plan to carve up Southern Liang.
From then on, he embarks on a mad course: killing his father and mother to seize the throne, slaughtering the royal clan, then handing the entire kingdom of East Han over to Northern Wei.
A plot within a plot: The Han emperor feigns fatherly love to lure Quan Zhen home → his brothers frame Chuan Xiyuan and drag him into the scheme → Quan Zhen massacres the palace and usurps the throne
A game for the realm: As ten nations attack Liang, Quan Zhen pretends to form an alliance → turns on them in battle and slays the Shu general → for love, he overturns the realm and upends the game for all nine provinces
