   The original senior brother in this book really fits this description (in my personal opinion, please don't be offended, thank you!!!). He's considerate of others, always keeping things from them, but if you ask him why, he can't answer. In the end, he dies from a cold poison. However, the protagonist transmigrates and seeks justice for him, telling him all his grievances. The original senior brother has been watching all along, and later in the mirror, he says he's very grateful to him. The protagonist in the mirror died because his spiritual root was dug out by the protagonist of this world, and then he was resurrected. He didn't hide anything and told others that he wasn't Shen Yuning, but a very ordinary person. (Those who are curious can check it out; if you don't like it, you can just leave.

    Incredibly heart-wrenching! A masterpiece! I cried so much I couldn't get over it. A cold, sickly beauty prince, a crazed emperor, seemingly forcing love, but actually incredibly affectionate. Almost no chapters afterward are sweet. The beginning has a tiny bit of sweetness, but looking back, it's all angst. But it's truly a wonderful read. The beautiful prince, seemingly irresistible, a broken beauty, actually possesses incredible integrity. Both are strong, and everyone is intelligent. It's incredibly heart-wrenching. Every character is fleshed out, very three-dimensional. Not two-dimensional, each one feels alive, with their own loves and hates, unrequited love, misplaced identities, and unrequited love—it's truly heartbreaking. The plot and character development are completely unpredictable. It has the weight of a kingdom. The destiny of the older generation. Love and hate.
