[Possessive, Domineering, Self-Deluding Mad Emperor Top x Ordinary, Timid, Foolish Straight-Man Beauty Bottom Who Won't Give Up Easily]
After losing his throne, the straight emperor Chai Zishu becomes a prisoner. But the new emperor, Xiao Lang, is a madman who tearfully makes an impassioned accusation on the imperial bed: "Under the pomegranate tree, we pledged ourselves to each other. You personally promised to marry me! I kept myself chaste for you for a full eight years!"
Forced to wear a skirt and attend the emperor, Chai Zishu is utterly bewildered. Back then, we were just swearing brotherhood! When did I ever promise to marry you?!
※※※ Reading Guide:
1. The bottom is genuinely straight at first. Forced to dress as a woman and attend the emperor, he has an overwhelming will to survive and an unshakable ability to cheer himself up. The top is an extreme jealous type who constantly imagines things.
2. Expect deliciously angsty romantic clashes, along with the fate of the land and its people and the characters' growth. A bittersweet romance with a happy ending.
