Light Beneath the Heavens

Pairing: Yan Zhen x Yuan Zhaoxi (a mischievous, playful top who enjoys having fun x a serious bottom who occasionally joins in the mischief)

The story of a 996 corporate drone, a total workhorse, who finally achieves financial freedom after years of grinding, only to wake up in a feudal dynasty and be forced to fight alongside its founding emperor to conquer the realm.

First-person narration, from the top's perspective

There are no righteous wars in the Spring and Autumn period, and no gentlemen in times of chaos.

An old man with one foot in the grave rides a wheelchair into battle. A minor who struggled in school commands three armies. An emperor obsessed with building houses in urban villages kills anyone in his way, while a vassal king feigns illness for ten years to strengthen himself. There's a kept man who lives off his concubine, and an unfilial son waiting for his father to kick the bucket.

P.S. Thanks for all your support! My other book, The Child Bride Next Door, needs its outline sorted out, and I may have to throw it all out and rewrite it. So I'm starting with a little sweet story to get back into the swing of things.

Theme: With the coming-of-age ceremony, the ruler begins his reign, matching Heaven and bringing light to the world.
