Synopsis

[Two male leads # equally matched powerhouses # physical and emotional angst # love and hate # imprisonment # groveling redemption # mutually unhinged]

A gloomy, unhinged emperor top × a cunning, patient prince bottom

He was once a regent who held power over the entire court, feared and respected for his iron fist. Later, he became the new emperor’s hidden captive, kept on his bed and out of sight.

His legs were broken and he was shackled. The regent who once looked down upon the world became a plaything for the emperor to vent his hatred on.

Xiao Yun Zhao thought himself iron-hearted and decisive, but he was moved by the sincere affection and clumsy protection of a foolish prince.

Amid the frigid struggle for imperial power, that innocence and sincerity allowed them to walk side by side, never alone.

He protected him as he ascended the throne, cleared every obstacle from his path, and even willingly took on the scorn of countless people, all to pave a peaceful road to the throne for him.

He thought he was protecting him, unaware that in Xiao Jingyan’s eyes, it was the cruelest form of control and humiliation.

When Xiao Jingyan shed his disguise, the fool on the imperial throne became the coldest of emperors.

The first thing he did was have him thrown into a lightless torture chamber, where he tormented him day after day.

He crushed Xiao Yun Zhao’s pride bit by bit, using hatred as an excuse to humiliate him and dragging him down from the clouds into the mire.

Xiao Jingyan thought he was taking revenge, using every means at his disposal to humiliate the man who had once controlled his entire life.

But he couldn’t understand why, when Xiao Yun Zhao was finally tortured to death by his own hand,

he felt not satisfaction, but overwhelming grief.

It turned out that I only wanted you dead in a fit of anger. I never truly wanted you to die...

I love the character's personality so much (ღ˘⌣˘ღ). Beautiful, strong, and tragic!!! So powerful and resilient, bearing everything alone—such a noble character 💕. I want to read angst, but when I actually try, I can't bring myself to read it. I'm such a psychologist 😢. How could the brilliant and talented Prince Jing become a pathetic slave? He's such a proud person…

The setting perfectly matches my preferences, and the writing is fantastic. I usually can't accept irreversible damage to the protagonist, but I found this surprisingly easy to accept. I've flipped through two similar books on Tomato Books before, but this is the first time I've encountered a story with physical abuse that doesn't feel awkward.

My goal of reading a tragic story has been achieved; I'm now eagerly awaiting the "chasing back the wife" plot. I came here specifically for the "cremation scene" (or "heartbreak"), and this male lead (gong) has the right not to be emperor at all, right? Personally, I think the damage already done is irreversible, so it's unfair to the female lead (shou) if he doesn't follow the proper procedures.

The plot is logically structured, generating complex conflicts and emotional entanglements. The characters are vividly portrayed, with distinct personalities and lifelike details. The entire story is high-energy, with a strong sense of immersion that keeps you hooked. The writing style is also unique; it's rare to see this kind of writing on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform).

It's so wonderful to meet a group of girls who share my love for novels online. Baby's writing is excellent; every character is so vividly portrayed, their personalities and traits are so well captured! I look forward to Baby's next story every day 😘

I really enjoyed the back-and-forth between Zhao and Yan, where Yan tormented Zhao physically, and Zhao tormented Yan emotionally. Both were quite intelligent in their torment of each other, and both had genuine feelings for one another. The entire book is marred by Yan's imprisonment and punishment of Zhao solely because of his suspicions—Yan is making a mountain out of a molehill!

Such harm goes beyond mere dignity; it's real physical damage—cutting out tongues, breaking fingers, snapping legs—and it's irreversible. Its cruelty rivals that of the Japanese invaders. Can it really be considered a happy ending? Only someone with intellectual disabilities would forgive it. This is one of the most gruesome stories I've ever read.

It's great! The angst is intense! I haven't read such a brutally angsty novel in ages… (My brain is already fried).

I've found such a wonderful story on Tomato! I've been following it for months, and it gets more and more exciting with each reading. It's heart-wrenching, but definitely not just for the sake of being tragic. The intertwining of love and hate is incredibly satisfying. The author's writing is also excellent. I highly recommend it; you absolutely must read it!

This is super good! If you like angst, you should check this out. I'm really looking forward to the "wife-chasing-after-the-crime" part later on.
