A fake-innocent, cunning, power-hungry emperor seme x a sinister, seemingly innocent, self-important imperial tutor uke who thinks he's the seme
Pei Li transmigrates into a melodramatic trash novel, where he becomes the wicked tutor who covets the beloved protagonist adored by everyone.
According to the original story's shameless setup, the court is packed with brilliant men: the censors are a sight to behold, the generals carry cannons along with their spears, and the regent is a pillar holding up the heavens... Meanwhile, poor young Emperor Xie Yun is a heartthrob everyone lusts after.
System mission: Dear user, please save His Majesty from danger and cleanse this unhealthy world~
Pei Li smiles darkly. "Save him? I'd rather keep him all to myself."
At their first meeting in court, the young emperor looks innocent and confused, like a little lamb that has wandered into a pack of wolves.
Pei Li looks at the emperor surrounded by wolves and narrows his eyes.
So cute. I want to lock him up.
From then on, whenever anyone tries to lay a hand on the young emperor, Pei Li appears ominously and drives them away.
The young emperor remains as innocent as a little white flower. With those clueless, peach-blossom eyes, he tugs on Pei Li's sleeve and says gently, "Imperial Tutor, they said all I have to do is help them a little..."
Pei Li gently strokes the young emperor's head, his voice low and husky. "Your Majesty is still young. When you grow up, I will teach you everything."
The young emperor nods obediently, but a shadow passes through his eyes.
Pei Li waits and waits, until at last the young emperor comes of age.
The other man takes Pei Li's hand with innocent anticipation. "Imperial Tutor, I'm all grown up now... When will you teach me?"
Pei Li raises an eyebrow and smiles.
His Majesty really is so innocent, he doesn't even know he's about to walk right into a wolf's den.
Having prepared a love potion and a jar of scented ointment, Pei Li climbs onto the imperial bed, brimming with confidence. He reverently undresses His Majesty, ready to show off his prowess.
Pei Li's expression darkens.
Wait! Weren't you supposed to be the beloved uke everyone wanted?
How are you bigger than me?!
He gets dressed and tries to run.
But the usually gentle and good-natured young emperor calmly grabs him by the ankle and effortlessly drags Pei Li back onto the bed.
The man's eyes are dark as his fingertips glide over Pei Li's throat.
"Didn't you say you would teach me, Imperial Tutor?"
"Trying to run now? Too late."
