The Beautiful Top and the Emperor Bottom (Reborn)

[Announcement: Going premium on Monday, October 3] The original title was "Beautiful Top x Crazy Bottom," but Jinjiang does not allow the term "crazy." 1. Xie You transmigrated into a book. The good news: He had become the heir of the Marquis of Zhenbei, the legitimate youngest son of the Marquis, the Southern Chu Kingdom's God of War. Frail and sickly since childhood, he had been doted on by his father and older brothers. He was appointed heir at twelve, his position secure, and he was also the most handsome man in the Six Kingdoms. The bad news: It was a time of chaos, Southern Chu was weak, and the Northern Hu were marching south. His father and brothers had all died in battle, the King of Chu had signed a humiliating treaty, and the young heir was about to be sent to the Northern Hu as a hostage. On the way, unable to endure the humiliation, he would starve himself to death. The good news: The original story had only just begun, so he still had a chance to save himself. The bad news: Southern Chu had already been defeated. The entire Marquis's household was dressed in mourning, and the original heir was lying in a coffin clutching the family memorial tablets, waiting to die. 2. It took Xie You ten years to go from a hostage of Southern Chu, frail as a skeleton and as pretty as a girl, to Young Master You, the renowned diplomatic genius of the realm. Later, the protagonist rose to power with an army of slaves, united the realm, and founded a new dynasty. Xie You was made a prince and chancellor, wielding power over the court. He devoted more than a decade to serving the state and ushered in a prosperous founding era. He was the new emperor's most revered teacher and most trusted confidant. He thought that after achieving fame and success, it was time to retire and enjoy life. But when he closed his eyes and opened them again, everything had returned to the beginning. Xie You was tired. He closed his eyes in the coffin and thought, let it be. He never expected the protagonist, who should have been suffering in a dungeon, to descend from the sky with an elite force and dig him out of the coffin. 3. Gu Chuqi first met Xie You in a Northern Hu dungeon. He was a captured slave soldier, and even after becoming their leader, nobody cared whether he lived or died. Yet the young envoy lifted his face and gently wiped the blood from it, saying softly, "I've come to take you all home." Gu Chuqi had never had a home. From that day on, Xie You was his home. Xie You taught him to read and write, and taught him military strategy... He won battle after battle, thinking he might stand a little closer to Xie You, then a little closer still. Instead, he watched Xie You rise higher and travel farther away. Even after becoming the supreme ruler, he always felt unworthy in this man's presence. Then one day, he opened his eyes and found himself back in his youth, before anything had begun. Given another life, he wanted to repay Xie You for everything he owed him from the last one, give his teacher the very best, keep him from harm, and take good care of his health. Ideally, he would even put on a little weight. But how did taking care of him turn into falling in love? - Xie You x Gu Jing (Gu Chuqi), Xie You is the top. Theme: Establish a moral compass for the world, secure a livelihood for the people, carry on the lost teachings of the sages, and bring peace to all generations. - Zhang Zai (Northern Song Dynasty)
