I Died After Mistaking the Protagonist

[The upcoming story 'Reborn as a Puppet Emperor, I Decide to Go Mad' is now open for follows. Please, please add it to your favorites. I really need the follows (?﹏?) Wishing everyone great wealth!] 1 The young master of the Shen family, the foremost clan in Yuncheng, was refined and noble, with a serene and luminous bearing. He was known as the most beautiful and powerful person in the Nine Provinces. Unfortunately, he was betrothed to a useless member of the Qi family. When Young Master Shen returned from his cultivation, the emperor held a ceremony to annul their engagement, and everyone celebrated their breakup. But Shen Qingzhuo smiled and held out his hand to the useless one. Someone saw Young Master Shen lead him away by the hand, walking with him all the way, then leave a grand palace banquet behind to eat noodles with Qi Ye at a street stall. The useless one clutched his brother's hand, his little face turning red. 2 After successfully abducting the protagonist, Shen Qingzhuo discovered that Qi Ye wasn't useless at all. He could defeat countless cultivators with a wave of his hand, and he could also grow a pair of beautiful horns and a tail that felt wonderful to touch. As for the protagonist, once he turned into a great dragon, his favorite thing to do every day was to cling to Shen Qingzhuo in all sorts of poses, begging to be petted and hugged. Shen Qingzhuo was enjoying petting him. Then the System told him he'd gotten the wrong person. This wasn't the protagonist he was supposed to help. The real protagonist was Qi Anning, Qi Ye's adopted brother, unrelated by blood. Qi Anning was a heart-stealing, universally adored heartthrob, while Shen Qingzhuo was the male supporting character who loved him without hope. And Qi Ye was the most evil villain in this world, the greatest threat to the protagonist. 3. Seeing that there was no chance of completing his mission, Shen Qingzhuo decided to fake his death under the System's arrangements and start over. Unexpectedly, the villain, who had always been well-behaved and happy to be petted, fell to darkness ahead of schedule. The fully corrupted great dragon caught Shen Qingzhuo and dragged him back, locking him in a dark palace where no sunlight could reach and tying his hands up. All the human cultivators who came to rescue him were beaten back. The young man beside him, horns and tail on full display once more, knelt by the bed with a pitiful look and kissed his eyes and lips. "...Master." "You can only touch me, and you can only look at me!" ++A cool and refined (just a little) shou x a loyal, clingy, ferocious gong ++Classic fantasy setting, with the romance as the main focus ++The System is useless and probably only appears that one time in the blurb. You can pretend it doesn't exist. [This is very amateurish. Please don't curse me if it hits a sore spot.] Upcoming story: 'Reborn as a Puppet Emperor, I Decide to Go Mad' Blurb: Reborn as a disposable puppet, I was an emperor whose life was worth less than a dog's. My only purpose was to witness the protagonist shou's madness and suffering, before being brutally killed by him in the end. Fu Guzhou, who couldn't even die early because his appointed death wasn't due yet: Whatever. If Chu Shuangtan's going to go mad, I'm better at going mad than he is. Forced to play the role, Fu Guzhou wreaked havoc every day, driving everyone around him mad. Today, he had the chief eunuch who tried to assassinate him beaten to death. Tomorrow, he would offend every minister in court and have anyone who dared cross him dismissed and thrown in jail. The day after that, he would turn his claws on the common people, sparing no one, not even the ordinary folk. And that wasn't all. There was also the graceful, cool, otherworldly hostage, beautiful and strong yet doomed to suffer. In the near future, he would kill Fu Guzhou and ascend the throne. Late at night, Fu Guzhou led a group of men into Chu Shuangtan's residence and forcibly took him as his male concubine, constantly humiliating and tormenting him. He made Chu Shuangtan warm his bed and serve as a human body pillow; forced him to kiss him; forbade him from disobeying; forbade him from being rough; and, after one mishap after another, slept with him. Fu Guzhou knew Chu Shuangtan hated him to the core. The man was aloof and proud, and a master at hiding his true self. If given the chance, Chu Shuangtan would kill him without hesitation to avenge his humiliation. * Under Fu Guzhou's brutal rule, the country, which had been in chaos and on the brink of collapse, came back to life instead. Those with treasonous intentions all cowered like quails. The people called Fu Guzhou a wise ruler because he solved problems with food, clothing, and natural disasters, built free schools throughout the land, and changed the policy so women could enter government service. The only thing that didn't go as planned was that the protagonist shou still managed to escape. When they met again, Chu Shuangtan had become the most powerful person in an enemy nation, and his personality had grown even colder and more withdrawn. Just as Fu Guzhou had once taken the protagonist shou away, he was now tied up and brought before Chu Shuangtan. In the lavish, austere hall, Chu Shuangtan looked as cool and untouchable as he had back then. He descended the steps and lightly lifted Fu Guzhou's chin. Fu Guzhou closed his eyes in resignation. He had few regrets as he said, "If you're going to kill me, then do it quickly. I have nothing to say." "Kill you?" Chu Shuangtan chuckled. "I remember everything you did to me back then. Naturally, I'll make you pay it all back first." Theme: Your fate is yours to command, not Heaven's
