A cunning, wily, devoted top x an unlucky, spoiled bottom
Little Mermaid trope, face-slapping √, silly humor √, twists √
Includes lucky charms, cross-dressing masters, and several sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside types. Enjoy!
A little theater of past-life karma:
"I respectfully offer this fine wine to send Your Majesty off, in memory of the 101 lives lost from the Brave General's household and the brave soul of the Brave General!"
"We send Your Majesty off to the next world!"
"In my twenty-one years in this world, my birth mother abandoned me, my father was lost in grief over my mother's death and neglected me, the world misunderstood me, and my friends gave up on me. The one time I finally resolved to punish those who betrayed our country, I brought death upon myself and lost my good name. I didn't live this life well. I failed."
"If there really is another life, I want to be a villain. Being a good person is too exhausting. Better to be a treacherous courtier who can finally hold his head high."
A little theater for the CP:
Lu Xiyou: "A day apart feels like three months~"
Yan Sui: "Don't come near me, and don't go making blind confessions. I'm your biological older brother!"
Lu Xiyou: "What a pretty young lady~"
Yan Sui: "Look closely, that's my buddy!"
Lu Xiyou: "...This eunuch really is a eunuch, right?"
Yan Sui: "Sorry, this is your brother-in-law."
An attempt at a serious blurb. Yes, a serious one. I did my best:
Emperor Yongping Yan Sui died in the brutal siege of a northern border city.
After twelve letters pleading for reinforcements, the only response was a general at his side shoving him off the city wall. He died pierced by a thousand arrows.
The history books record only this:
Emperor Yongping opened the city gates and let the enemy army in. The twelve prefectures of the Northern Border fell, and he was a sinner.
A sinner, was he?
In the dilapidated courtyard of the Lu residence, Yan Sui opened his eyes and smiled:
Since I've been reborn, why not try a different way to play?
Reader's guide:
1. "I'm clearly following the villain's script, so why does everyone call me a good person?" Feel-good story √, building a career √, turning the tables against the odds √, happy ending √
2. I'll start posting once I have enough chapters saved up. Letting loose, just for stress relief.
3. I can't think of anything else for now, but listing only two things doesn't feel very impressive QAQ
