Pre-release: The Years I Spent as a Fox Spirit at an American School. Just imagine the trouble a fox spirit could cause at an American school! Everyone's favorite, oh~
Synopsis
I imprisoned him as a puppet emperor, and he confined me as a powerful minister in his bedchamber.
Bedchamber-bound minister bottom X puppet emperor top
Su Yunting, head of the Ten Great Houses and a chancellor with power over the entire court, could decide life and death with a stroke of his brush and overturn the court with a glance. The emperor above him, Chu Jin, was nothing more than a puppet he had placed on the dragon throne.
In the Golden Throne Hall, Su Yunting's word carried more weight than an imperial edict!
When Chu Jin had just proposed a full investigation into the salt taxes in Jiangnan, Su Yunting chuckled, and every court official fell silent.
When Chu Jin wanted to mobilize troops to suppress the great houses, Su Yunting toyed indifferently with the tiger tally, and a hundred thousand soldiers stayed put.
Chu Jin flew into a rage and overturned the imperial desk. A jade cup smashed beside Su Yunting's feet. "Guards! I want this treacherous minister who deceived the throne executed!"
The whole court fell deathly silent. The imperial guards didn't move an inch.
Su Yunting dusted the tea stains off his official robes without even raising his eyes. "His Majesty is tired. Help him back to his chambers to rest."
But no one knew that every night...
This powerful minister, who could command the winds and rain in court, would remove his official hat and robes, strip off his embroidered finery, and kneel beside the emperor's bed in nothing but a plain white undershirt. A dragon-patterned chain fastened around his ankle, jingling as Chu Jin tugged on it...
Chu Jin clutched the memorial he had torn to shreds during the day and hurled it hard at his face. Gripping his chin, he said, "My dear Su, weren't you so imposing during the day?"
Su Yunting's eyes reddened at the corners as he let Chu Jin's blade rip through his white shirt.
Chu Jin chuckled and leaned down to whisper in his ear, "My dear Su, don't you love defying imperial orders? But I insist that you accept my favor. Dare you refuse?"
Cold air seeped through his opened shirt, making Su Yunting's lips tremble. He closed his eyes slightly and said, "This subject obeys the imperial decree."
Su Yunting's trusted subordinate once asked him, "Master, you clearly fear no one anymore. Why do you still endure the emperor's daily humiliations?"
Su Yunting toyed with the memorial in his hand, smiling sweetly. "What's the point of a caged bird with broken wings?"
Only...
He never expected that one day he, too, would become a caged bird.
Chu Jin broke his wings, turning Su Yunting from an arrogant regent into a prisoner everyone could bully.
Everyone was waiting to watch the phoenix fall...
[Bonus Scene]
In the emperor's bedchamber.
Chu Jin knelt beside Su Yunting's bed and combed his hair, his fingers running through the dark strands. "Would you like to wear this white jade hairpin today?"
On winter days, Su Yunting slept in, so Chu Jin would wait in the snow until his dark hair turned white with frost. Only then would Su Yunting's faint voice drift out of the warm chamber: "I'm tired today. Your Majesty, you may return."
Frost clung to Chu Jin's eyelashes. With hands long since frozen stiff, he tremulously pulled a piping-hot peach pastry from his robes. "It's still... warm. Eat it while it's hot."

Pre-release: The Years I Spent as a Fox Spirit at an American School
Hu Li, a fox spirit from Qingqiu who had cultivated for nine hundred and ninety-nine years, was on the verge of ascending to immortality when heavenly lightning struck him straight into a mortal's body. Now he was an international student heading to America?
His magic was gone, his demonic core shattered, and he was starving so badly his stomach was practically touching his back?
After fainting from hunger yet again, he smelled something delicious...
Hu Li's eyes lit up. Time to eat!
1
Other people study abroad for a degree. Hu Li studies abroad to "stay alive." One breath of yang energy is better than ten years of study!
Qingqiu Hunting Rule No. 1: Gentle, honest people are easiest to fool and good to eat.
Like that blond boy in the corner of the library, who looked like a freshly steamed soup dumpling, fragrant and piping hot...
Hu Li tipped up his little head and did his best to strike the Qingqiu family's legendary "dazzle the masses" pose. "Hey, gay, can I have a taste of you?"
The "soup dumpling" slowly closed his book and stood up.
The next second, a huge shadow engulfed Hu Li. A large, bony hand clamped around his shockingly slender waist, lifted him effortlessly off the ground, and slammed him against the bookshelf.
"How did you know I'm gay? How long have you been lusting after me?"
2
Hu Li rubbed his aching waist. It took him the entire night with a dictionary to figure it out: it was guy, not gay! Damn it!
Qingqiu Hunting Rule No. 2: Meatheads are simple-minded and good to eat.
Like that blond boy lifting weights at the gym, who looked like a little steak on a charcoal grill, crisp on the outside and tender within...
Hu Li deliberately mussed up his hair, dampened the corners of his eyes, and used his most seductive gaze to stammer out the word he'd just learned. "You look very tasty."
The "little steak" abruptly froze, then slowly set down the barbell.
Looking at the black-haired, dark-eyed Asian beauty before him, whose skin was as white as porcelain and whose gaze was dewy, he swallowed hard and swept Hu Li into his arms.
"What a coincidence. You look sweet too."
Hu Li struggled and shouted, "I'm a top! Top! Top!"

Though things hadn't gone as planned, he burped contentedly.
But when he walked onto the basketball court and saw all those "meal tickets" wearing identical jerseys, with blond hair, blue eyes, and nearly identical faces...
Hu Li froze on the spot.
Oh no! What number was last night's one again?
As he pondered, the game on the court came to a halt, and all the blond, blue-eyed boys crowded around him...
Theme: Growth and turning the tables, loving and hurting each other
Let me write a longer review! I don't remember when I collected this book. It might have been when I received it in advance, or it might have been two or three chapters after I opened it. A very common feature of current Jinjiang literature is that the copywriting is not basic but the content is basic. My eyes lit up when I saw the copywriting of this book. I haven't seen such copywriting to my liking for a long time, so I opened the first chapter excitedly, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the writing style of this book was much better than I expected. From then on, I started to follow the series. What impressed me deeply was the author's great portrayal of the characters. I think this has been done very well. It is not difficult to see what kind of person Su Yunting actually is. He loves Chu Jin deeply, and he is not weak. He also has his own style and principles of doing things. He will not give up his goals just because Chu Jin is his lover. This is rare, and it is also the reason why I am deeply impressed by Su Su. Another person who impressed me deeply was actually Xiao Pei, because I rarely see non-protagonist characters with this identity and this kind of life experience and personality. The contrast he gave me was really big. At first I thought he would be a lively person like other people in similar articles, bringing only a funny atmosphere, and his interaction with Yang San was really cute, but until the plot developed, I gradually realized that something was wrong, and then I lost my horse. It's hard to imagine that after being framed and being framed, he was the only one left in the family and had to cut off his children and grandchildren. After that, he could start his life again and look cheerful and optimistic. Especially the actual drumming part, although there are factors of Su Su in it, it is more about him personally. His agreement to play the drums showed that he was determined to face his tragic past and his former self. That moment shaped him to its peak. He didn't escape, he was very brave, so I don't want to call him eunuch. In fact, I don't want to call him Xiao Pei. I would rather call him Jiang Yan, but this name contains too much pain for him, so let's call him Xiao Pei. Xiao Pei, I hope you will be safe in the future and have success in your next life. Let's talk about Chu Jin next. He loves Su Su deeply. There is no doubt that he can break his own bottom line again and again for Su Su and love that person regardless of everything, even if that person has a hatred for his mother at that time. He is very determined and does not dislike Su Yunting because of external factors, haha! Loyal dogs are wonderful!!! (Been beaten away Yang San is a human machine, well... He is also very cute, and he always protects Xiao Pei. Although he didn't have the same smart head and complex calculations as Su Yunting, fortunately he had a fiery heart. When Su Su asked Xiao Pei to play the drum, he did not hesitate to expose his identity and organize Xiao Pei to go, although he failed to stop him. I hope you will be safe in the future! In the next life, I will grow up safely and become an eagle flying freely in the clouds, sweating on the battlefield, just like your name. Now that we've talked about the characters, let's talk about the plot! In fact, the plot of this book also gave me a big surprise. The plot is very well arranged (I don't mean the rhythm is very good, just the plot is good). The plot of drumming is also very well arranged, and there are some old things from the past, which are really attractive! Moreover, the writing style is also very good, and the description of emotions is very delicate. The only fly in the ointment is that the pacing is not well arranged. The author himself said that the writing collapsed in the later stage. In fact, I don't think it was too collapsed. At least the plot in my impression is complete, but the copywriting cheated a small part. I don't remember if I've commented on the main reason for the poor pacing before. To put it simply, the length of the emotional and plot lines is not well arranged. In the early stage, I often wrote about two people posting, which is very attractive and enjoyable, but the two people posting did not promote the development of too much plot. This article has the main plot line, so it seems a bit redundant. Some novels are mainly about the reunion of two people, so it is normal to write more emotional lines, but the length will not be too long. Another reason why the writing seems to be a failure is that the plot was not promoted in the early stage due to too many emotional lines, so the plot was pushed crazily in the later stage, so that the good plot arrangement was not completely written out. I don't believe that the author couldn't write it out, but was just too anxious. But it doesn't matter!!! You will grow through setbacks!!! Maybe we will meet again next time! By the way, I really like this book, Zhu Chujin and Su Yunting 99 (I don't know if I've reached 1,000 words. If it's less than 1,000 words, it won't be considered a long QAQ.
"Before he finished speaking, he had already put his arms around her..." This is a big bug for the author~ "His waist" ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh can't be written wrong!!!
My biggest impression after reading it is that Su Yunting is so awesome, I really like and admire it, and the author's copywriting is a scam. Su Yunting never folded her wings from beginning to end, but the copywriter said that her wings were discounted. It was a little bit cruel to the copywriter, but I was a bit disappointed.
I read it in school and watched it again. It's really not enough. I'll write a longer one.
This Chu Jin is really a bad taste! But I love watching it!
Will there be any extras? Woohoo!
"Chu Jin grabbed his waist and gave the author a big blow~"
"My eyes are not raised." This is a big bug for the author ~ slightly raised
Damn it, the theme has been sublimated all of a sudden.
Ah? Are you two okay? (Disappointment)
