As a cheap emperor whose ties to the royal bloodline are so distant they barely count, Chu Ci, a transmigrator, has worked diligently and tirelessly for the country, giving his all until his dying breath. He's practically an exemplary public servant!
All he wants is to step down after accomplishing his mission, retire to the mountains, and live freely. He never expected that after working himself to the bone for over ten years to raise the brat, the moment the boy ascended the throne, he would reward Chu Ci with a cup of poisoned wine.
The poison burned through his throat. Chu Ci opened his eyes, only to find himself sitting on the throne again! To hell with the throne! To hell with that ungrateful wretch! I'm done!
With an abdication edict, Chu Ci swept out of the palace, packed his bags, and prepared to return to the countryside to farm.
It was only after that person died that Chu Xuan realized that person really had been the only one who treated him well without conditions. The only one... the only one. Unfortunately, he'd lost him.
If Heaven gave him another chance... Wait, something seems wrong here!
Many years later...
"Your Majesty, the Retired Emperor is flirting with the beauties in the opera troupe again!"
The emperor was furious!
"Your Majesty, the Retired Emperor has snuck out to the Wanhua House again!"
The emperor was enraged!
"Your Majesty, the Retired Emperor is trying to run away from home again!"
"A Ci, I was wrong. I won't dare do it again..." Dressed in nothing but a thin robe, the emperor shivered in the cold wind and pitifully reached a dragon claw through the crack in the door to scratch at it.
Reading guide: Chu Xuan x Chu Ci, both reborn, younger man, raising him, angsty and cathartic melodrama. Want to give it a try?
P.S. This novel is entirely made up by the author. If anything implausible or unrealistic happens, it just means the author is talking nonsense with a straight face. Don't overthink it, my dears.

Theme:
At first glance, the introduction seems to be a very good subject. However, the more I read it, the more I felt like a "10,000-year-old elementary school student"~ It has a very tempting plot, but the content is all watered down and has little relevance to the theme. "Ten Thousand Years of Elementary School" is a mystery drama after all. Even if it is protracted and lengthy, the people are still solving the case and the theme has not changed. But this article... Should be renamed The Supreme Emperor Who Eats and Waits to Die... The little emperor has almost no sense of existence. Falling in love is a matter for two people, but in this article, only one is performing a one-man show. All in all, good ingredients, good utensils, leaving the bad stuff in, getting rid of the good stuff, and making a pot of soup in the worst possible way...
The entire children's book is a cremation ground for chasing your wife.
I feel like after reading this article, I can no longer look at the word Chu Xuan...
Bear with me for being fake, this is all part of the story and I only mentioned a few words...
Looks good, looks good, looks good! I saw half of it elsewhere. After spending 99 beans, I came back and searched it. It was indeed there, and it belongs to the author who collected it, so I continued to read the remaining half! I shed so many tears! I almost thought it was the National Preceptor who traveled through time.
In the end, Chu Xuan still got the Emperor~
Catching bugs ~ and not only getting angry about things that are in control... But not knowing how to control them
Why did it become a mutual attack! I obviously accept that the new year is here! Faint
??ヽ(?▽?)ノ? Finished with flowers!
It's obviously the new year! The author has changed his introduction!
The fifth master Shen and the late emperor are not together. I can't read this article [deep-thinking face]
