The blurb for a new novel of the same type, After Wrongfully Killing the Great General, I Was Reborn, is at the very bottom. Please add it to your library! Here is this novel's blurb:
A gentle, steadfast beauty as the shou × a mad, capricious prince as the gong
A cool, heartless Imperial Tutor vs. a scheming, lovesick prince
/
In his previous life, the Seventh Prince, Yan Ke, raised an army in rebellion, his sword pointed at the imperial palace.
Amid the deafening cries of battle, all he wanted was to see that cool, snow-like man.
The man who devoted himself to helping the Crown Prince, and had never once been willing to look at him.
If Yan Ke could see him, he would make this towering palace his gilded cage, place him above all others as The Outcast, and never let him escape.
But when he saw him for the last time, Bai Ning could no longer open his eyes.
Yan Ke vomited blood, his eyes red, yet his face was unnaturally calm.
“Bai Ning, you have betrayed me once again.”
/
In his previous life, Bai Ning died because Yan Ke rebelled.
Reborn into another life, he resolved to keep Yan Ke firmly under guard.
But when Yan Ke gazed at him pitifully like a little dog outside the imperial study, Bai Ning could not resist teaching him to read under the pretext of “keeping an eye on him,” hoping to set his character straight.
He thought he had covered his tracks perfectly. He failed to notice that, as they brushed past each other, the obsession in the eyes of this little wolf pup had become somewhat unusual.
It was not until the Crown Prince was defeated once again and Bai Ning fainted that he awoke in the new emperor's bedchamber.
The palace maids barely dared to breathe. With heads lowered, they heard intimate sounds from within, along with a cool voice, sharp with anger, demanding:
“Yan Ke! How can you be so despicable...”
A palace maid sneaked a glance inside. On the bed, the new emperor, usually so cruel and sinister, was holding that man and speaking to him gently:
“Say whatever you want. I still won't let you go.”
/
That year, new policies took effect and peace reigned throughout the land.
But a great fire consumed Zhaoyang Hall, and Bai Ning vanished without a trace.
Yan Ke went mad, searching every mountain and sea just to find one person, or perhaps a corpse.
Until one day, while the emperor was out on a tour, he unexpectedly met the gaze of the man whose elegant bearing remained unchanged, amid familiar scenery from days gone by. He had become a lonely ruler with no one left by his side.
Seeing the man avert his gaze, Yan Ke caught up to him with ease and held him firmly in his arms. His eyes reddened, yet he gave a soft laugh and sighed:
“Bai Ning, if you want to leave me, you'll have to kill me first.”
One-on-one, both devoted to each other, happy ending
☆ Blurb for the upcoming novel After Wrongfully Killing the Great General, I Was Reborn:
When Li Xu, emperor of the Zhao Kingdom, was dying, he repeatedly dreamed of a man in black. The man's figure was tall and imposing, his body drenched in blood, seeming both ghostly and divine. He laughed softly, his presence flickering in and out: “Your Majesty, do you regret killing me?”
Li Xu regretted it. He regretted it with all his heart.
The man had once been his most accomplished general, sweeping across Jiangbei, pacifying Nanzhao, and securing Shuofang... His achievements were unmatched, but he was far too arrogant and repeatedly broke the rules. In the end, he even colluded with a foreign tribe to rebel!
Li Xu was furious: The evidence was irrefutable. Fu Ying could only atone with his life.
At the execution, Fu Ying offered not a single word in his defense. He merely wore a faint smile at the corner of his usually arrogant, carefree lips and glanced lightly at Li Xu.
Who could have guessed that this glance would become a knot in Li Xu's heart, a demon he could not escape?
After Fu Ying's death, the Prince of Zhennan rallied the regional governors to rebel. Li Xu worked day and night until his old illness returned. As he lay dying, he dreamed once more of Fu Ying, the man he had personally executed.
“Why... did you betray me?”
He asked again and again, but the man never answered.
As he lay dying, Li Xu thought, if he could live his life over again... he would personally find out the truth: what had driven that man to do it?
And he would use Fu Ying to root out the rebels, then consider how to deal with the arrogant man himself.
*
Li Xu was reborn.
In this life, he resolved to feed this wolfhound first, then set his plan in motion to make the wolves devour the tigers.
He suppressed the hatred in his heart, appointed Fu Ying Great General, bestowed a courtesy name upon him, helped him put on and take off his armor, and even treated him better than he had in his previous life...
No matter how rude Fu Ying was, he endured it.
But the more he did so, the more things seemed to go wrong.
Until one day, in the army tent, the Great General's hand touched his rear.
Li Xu was about to slam the table and rise, but a hand clamped over his mouth. “Shh. We go into battle tomorrow. Your Majesty can't help me, and I'm afraid I won't be able to help Your Majesty either.”
Li Xu was so furious he saw stars. The word “kill” caught in his throat, and the man opposite him had already devoured him completely.
At the victory banquet, Li Xu had only just suppressed his murderous intent when Fu Ying leaned close to his ear. “From what I saw yesterday, Your Majesty did not seem displeased.”
Li Xu endured it.
“Your Majesty looks so angry. Do you want to kill me to punish me?”
Li Xu: Hmm... How could I not?
In this life, Li Xu watched his territory expand and peace settle across the land. He endured it again and again.
During one bloody battle, Fu Ying suffered dozens of wounds, lost consciousness, and was brought back wrapped in his armor.
Li Xu shed genuine tears, knelt beside him for a long time, and prayed in a whisper: “If you do not die, I will do anything.”
The first thing Fu Ying said when he woke was, “Does Your Majesty mean that?”
Li Xu: “...”
He regretted it so much.
Just then, the foreign barbarian minister chuckled beside his ear. “A ruler's word is his bond. Your Majesty, it's too late to regret it now.”
P: A vicious, wild-dog gong from a foreign tribe × a sensitive, suspicious, delicate and sickly emperor shou
PS: This novel is also known as The Imprisoned Dragon and After the Foolish Emperor Had Me Beheaded, the Great General Was Reborn (I'm a foolish emperor. Can I still be saved? QAQ...)
Theme: Hold on to your ideals and never give up.
Oh~ Your Majesty, it's a festival today, why are you all alone? Don't you have a partner?
At first, he was just angry about what Yan Ke did to Bai Ning, and felt that Bai Ning was sincerely feeding the dog; after reading this chapter, Bai Ning repeatedly tolerated Yan Ke because he wanted to realize his ideals. He wanted the country to be peaceful and the people to be peaceful, the government and the countryside to be peaceful, and the people to live and work in peace and contentment. It was not because he loved Yan Ke that he repeatedly gave in. Of course, this does not prevent Yan Ke from doing things that are not human beings (つД`). The right gave him the opportunity to force him to stay, but he did not give him understanding of Bai Ning's heart, allowing him to push Bai Ning further and further away.
Yan Ke took advantage of Bai Ning's ideals and ambitions and his love for the prince, and imprisoned him within the palace wall. [Push away] [Yan Ke, you unlucky child! Whoever chases someone is this way! You will only push Bai Ning further and further away! Hateful iron cannot be made into steelDon't you know whether your master is soft or hard? It's not enough to just keep people! I still have to keep my heart!
Oho, there is a child alive There is a future prince (nonsense) There are people to contain (rescue) Bai Ning (Yan Ke, you'd better do some personnel work)
Um, I accidentally posted the manuscript I will deposit tomorrow.
Mr. Jiang, come to the rescue! Lord Jiang!
Even if she fled far away from the world, Bai Ning never forgot the people of her home and country.
I want to read the secret report! I want to see it!
Teacher! You finally updated again!
Bai Ning is finally free~~~~~Spread flowers~~ As for Yan Ke? Oh, let him cry a little longer and reflect! When you become an emperor, you no longer know how to "respect teachers and moral principles"! (It may also be that he never learned how to love someone when he was growing up) Let him reflect on it!
