I Redeemed a Max-Level, Scheming Little Emperor (Transmigrated into a Book)

The preview for The Tyrant is below. [The main story is complete. Dear readers, you can start reading!] 1. Shen Yizhou transmigrated into a book, becoming the villainous Imperial Preceptor in The Tyrant, a man who was a beast in human skin and met a horrible end. On the day he arrived, the original Shen Yizhou had already thrown the tragic protagonist bottom into a lake and left him freezing all night, nearly killing him. Great, a life-or-death situation from the start. But that wasn't even the worst part. According to the System, he still had to follow the original plot and drag the protagonist bottom through the mud until he was covered in wounds, lock him in a dark dungeon, and hang him high on the city wall... Any one of those crimes could get him executed a thousand times over. Shen Yizhou's face went blank. "..." There was no need to go looking for death like this. So, to save his own life, he immediately took the protagonist bottom on as his disciple. He kept him warm and cared for him every day, taught him his lessons, and even declared in front of the people from every palace, "I will protect the Ninth Prince." The System was furious. "You can't drag this plot back on track with eight horses!" Shen Yizhou: "Don't panic. Everything is under my control. We'll definitely get a perfect ending." The System: "..." Yeah, right. 2. From then on, Shen Yizhou had a sniveling little tail following him around. He protected the boy as he grew up, then helped the protagonist bottom ascend the throne. "Did the little darling cry again today?" "Can the little darling sleep on his own tonight?" "Little darling, the ministers are all watching. Could you let go of my hand now?" Little darling: "Wah... A Yan, they're so scary. I'm afraid." Shen Yizhou: "Whoever dares to act out, your teacher will kill him for you." The ministers: "..." They looked at the hall, where the official executed by this tyrant had just been lying, his blood not yet wiped away, and hastily wiped the sweat from their brows. Which one of them was the scary one? In his spare time, Shen Yizhou also worked on accelerating the romance in the original story, setting up opportunities for the protagonist top and bottom to get together. "Prince Nanping, would you like to go flower-viewing?" "Prince Nanping, shall we dine together?" "Prince Nanping, why not stay in my bedchamber?" With his help, the protagonist top and bottom really did start looking at each other differently, sparks flying. Shen Yizhou decided the plan had worked. He dusted off his sleeves and retired from the scene. Using the System as cover, he faked his death and escaped the imperial palace. What he didn't know was that, during his absence, the young emperor went mad and slaughtered hundreds of people while searching the entire imperial city. 3. Shen Yizhou happily enjoyed his retirement, quietly waiting for good news from the palace: the protagonist top and bottom's wedding announcement. But instead of good news, he heard that the protagonist top planned to usurp the throne. Shen Yizhou: "???" What a scumbag. How could he let someone bully the young emperor he'd raised himself? Shen Yizhou even forgot that the world believed he was dead. He stormed into the palace alone, protected the young emperor behind him, and pointed his long sword at the protagonist top, shouting, "Get out! I was wrong about you. You're a despicable, shameless scoundrel." The protagonist top: "..." He'd thought Shen Yizhou was being held prisoner by the young emperor, which was why he'd broken into the palace. He was just about to explain... Then he saw the young emperor's gloomy, oppressed eyes instantly turn aggrieved. He looked weakly at Shen Yizhou and said, "A Yan, they all bully me when you're not here." Shen Yizhou's heart ached. He hugged the young emperor and comforted him. "Don't be afraid. I won't leave again." The young emperor hugged Shen Yizhou, then, where Shen Yizhou couldn't see, gave the protagonist top a malicious smile. The protagonist top: "..." You two think you're so high and mighty. [Bonus Scene] One day, Shen Yizhou woke up aching all over, holding his lower back. The young emperor, who was usually so timid, was nothing like his obedient self. He restrained Shen Yizhou by the waist, his lips against his ear, and said with a mad, obsessive intensity, "Never leave me." "Otherwise, I'll kill you, and we'll be buried together." Shen Yizhou: "..." Oh. So he was the poor little thing all along. The System gleefully raised its arms and cheered. "Yes! It really is a perfect ending." [Coming Soon] ↓↓↓ The Tyrant 1. Wen Songzhou is a young emperor who has only recently taken the throne. The person he hates most is Xiao Rongmo, the regent who holds all the power at court. Every day at court, he glares at the regent's cold face, grinding his teeth in hatred, and swears that one day he'll confiscate everything the man owns. But before he can do that, Wen Songzhou gets caught in a strange predicament. 2. Every night, he enters another world, where Xiao Rongmo is no longer a regent but a chilling tyrant, and Wen Songzhou is a young male concubine in the tyrant's harem. He thinks he's done for, but the tyrant takes his chin in hand and says domineeringly, with a hint of indulgence, "Just tell me what you want. There's nothing in this world I can't get for you." The young emperor: "???" From then on, the young emperor leads a double life. By day, he glares at the cold-faced regent, grinding his teeth in anger. By night, he enjoys the tyrant who grants his every wish. He's doomed. He might end up with a split personality. 3. One day at court, Regent Xiao Rongmo talks back to the young emperor again. The great general: "I've already gathered the troops. Just give the word, Your Majesty, and I'll go confiscate everything he owns." The young emperor thinks it over. He's right. I've let him get away with too much lately. "It's time to settle the score," he tells the general with a stern face. "No need to confiscate his property. Bring him to the palace." The general rubs his hands together excitedly. "Right, to the secret prison. I'll put him through all eighteen kinds of torture, one after the other." "No," says the young emperor. "Bring him to my bedchamber." The general: "? W-what for?" The young emperor's lips curl into a smile. His voice rings out: "To attend me in bed." The great general: "!!!"
