A Ruler's Command Cannot Be Defied

[Brooding, Unhinged Emperor Top X Clear-Headed Beauty Eunuch Bottom]

The day Dongjun fell, Xiao Junheng watched his father and mother die in the great hall with his own eyes. As his elder sister died, she clutched his hand and said:

"Stay alive. Kill the Liang Emperor!"

He was thrown into the castration house of Great Liang, struggling to survive in the imperial palace while carrying a sea of blood-deep vengeance.

By chance, he saved Liang Yan, the Crown Prince of the day, and became one of the Eastern Palace's attendants, gaining his protection.

He had thought it was an equal exchange, but never imagined that the Crown Prince had impure intentions from the very beginning...

After the new emperor ascended the throne, Liang Yan personally handed Xiao Junheng a knife. "A-Heng, go kill your enemy with your own hands."

Xiao Junheng saw the former emperor, who had reigned in splendor for more than a decade, reduced to a heap of flesh, every bone in his body pulled out. He glared at the two of them with venomous eyes.

Liang Yan, however, calmly embraced the trembling beauty from behind.

"I've given you everything you wanted. How are you going to reward me, hmm?"

Everyone in Liang knew that the new emperor, Liang Yan, was a madman.

He was cruel by nature and decisive in killing. After ascending the throne, he personally killed several high-ranking court officials to eliminate his enemies, leaving the great hall awash with blood. No one dared question the young emperor again.

However, the emperor seemed to be utterly indifferent to matters between men and women. After taking the throne, he had no intention of selecting consorts, and he rejected every suggestion and remonstration.

Until one day, a palace servant saw

The usually cold and cruel emperor was keeping a jade-faced young gentleman company in a pavilion to escape the heat. The young gentleman had his legs draped over the emperor's, swinging them lazily. The emperor not only wasn't angry, but affectionately rubbed the young man's ankle.

On a closer look, wasn't that young gentleman the emperor's personal attendant, Chief Eunuch Xiao?

Palace servant: Huh? I didn't, I really didn't see a thing...

The Cannon Fodder Background Character? But Everyone's Favorite

[Cheerful Transmigrator-Into-a-Book Bottom X Feudal Patriarch Top]

Lin Zhiyi, who had transmigrated into a historical danmei harem novel over a decade ago, knew exactly where he stood

A cannon-fodder background character, a mere foil who existed to make the protagonist shine.

Lin Zhiyi didn't care. He just wanted to make it through the plot smoothly one day and successfully return to the real world.

To stay out of sight and avoid getting caught up in the protagonists' love and hate, Lin Zhiyi never showed off. He even deliberately hid his good looks and all the perks he had gained from transmigrating into a book.

It was just that he had never noticed

Whenever he and the protagonist walked past a crowd at the same time, nobody's gaze lingered on the protagonist.

Until one day, the System, silent for over a decade, spoke up: Host, the plot has collapsed. All the tops are in love with you now.

Lin Zhiyi was so startled that he hid in the arms of a cold and aloof regent. "Holy crap, help!"

Regent: Zhiyi, you're saying things I don't understand again.

Lin Zhiyi: I mean, I love you. Protect me, and don't let those idiots near me!

Regent: Fine, I'll screw you!

Lin Zhiyi: I mean, I love you too.

Lin Zhiyi: ...

All right, shut up!
