The Crown Prince Has No Shame

In his previous life, a frame-up, a wrongful conviction, and a cup of poisoned wine destroyed decades of friendship between ruler and subject in a single day.

In this life, Wen Xing returned to the palace as the Crown Prince's study companion, but swore never again to give him even the slightest bit of his heart.

So why has the Crown Prince, so reserved and proper in his previous life, become so shameless in this one?

Xie Yi: The palace is a long way from General Wen's residence. A Xing, why don't you move into the palace?

Wen Xing: Your Highness, that would be improper.

Xie Yi: Your studies are demanding, and the roads are dark at night. From now on, you can stay in the Eastern Palace.

Wen Xing: Your Highness, that would be improper.

Xie Yi: It's my birthday today. Stay and talk with me by candlelight.

Wen Xing: Your Highness, that would be improp-

Xie Yi promptly knocked him unconscious with a karate chop.

Xie Yi: What do propriety and etiquette matter? I decide what's proper.

Wen Xing: ...

With the Crown Prince pursuing him on one side and schemes and conspiracies on the other, Wen Xing has barely begun to sort out his relationship with the Crown Prince when he uncovers an even more shocking secret...

Someone else seems to have been the driving force behind his wrongful death in his previous life.

Blurb:

Jiang Ruochu, young master of the demonic sect, only realized after dying once that a villain should act like a villain.

Why bother saving lives and healing the sick?

In the end, he was born extraordinary, only to die in misery.

His life's work destroyed, his family dead, and his trusted aides betraying him...

Jiang Ruochu was furious and unwilling to accept it. He was so angry that, before he knew it, he had been reborn.

He looked at the trusted aide from his past life, his gaze growing increasingly dark.

Since they had been so cruel and disloyal in his previous life, he would go all the way down the path of darkness in this one.

...So why does everyone keep calling him cute?

Yun Qiufeng: My Chuchu is the cutest! I want to hug him and give him a kiss!

Jiang Ruochu: (draws his sword) Get lost.

Yun Qiufeng: Getting lost, getting lost! I'll leave right away!

Yun Qiufeng: But do you want me to get lost into your arms or your heart?
