Reborn as a tyrannical, incompetent emperor, Jiang Shen faces the fate of being killed by the original novel's protagonist and used as a stepping stone. Determined to reform, change his image, cling to a powerful ally, and create a chance to escape...
The man whose leg he clings to says: Stay away from me.
The fragile emperor: You're the strongest fighter and second most powerful person in the original story, and you're supposed to be fiercely loyal to the emperor. There's no way I'm staying away. I'll win you over today, bring you medicine tomorrow, act sweet and obedient, and beg you to hold me. I'll make sure I win you over! As long as I don't lose heart, there's always a way to overcome any difficulty!
Yang Yu: ...What is he up to now?
Yang Yu: This tyrant really does seem different from before. Has he become... likable?
Yang Yu: No.
He struggles to restrain himself, repeatedly recalling the humiliation and pain the other man inflicted on him. Yet when an assassin's blade tears through the imperial robe, Yang Yu is so worried his eyes nearly split with fury.
.
Jiang Shen isn't trying to whitewash the original emperor's countless bloody crimes. He only wants to do everything he can to make amends. He tries to be a good emperor, but discovers that, in many people's memories, he used to be a child they loved.
The ghosts of those who died unjustly haunt his dreams, wailing bloody tears. Yet the person they curse is someone else.
Only then does Jiang Shen learn that he is a puppet through and through, manipulated into becoming a scapegoat and bearing a lifetime of infamy.
For five years, no one sees his pleas for help or his struggles. Only after he fakes his death and escapes, having finally won someone's affection, does Yang Yu dredge up the truth buried in memories shattered and scrambled by drugs, and proclaim it to the world.
The whole nation grieves. Yang Yu, who once despised Jiang Shen and even wanted to kill him, refuses to accept his corpse. He searches every corner of the imperial city for him, determined to fulfill the promise he made to protect him for life.

"The Turncoat"
When Xiao Cisheng's army reaches the city gates, Chu Mingyi brings the young emperor to open the gates and surrender, welcoming the Xiao clan into the capital.
Once a dazzling talent and celebrated figure, he single-handedly held up a dynasty on the brink of collapse for seven years. Not yet twenty-five, he is already sickly and frail. Before he can fulfill his life's ambition, he becomes the most despised traitor of all.
Now he must personally welcome Xiao Cisheng, whom he once ordered into exile and who considers him a sworn enemy.
Chu Mingyi doesn't know this is only the beginning of his nightmare.
By day, he serves as a minister, cursed by the masses. At night, he sleeps in his enemy's tent, exhausted in body and spirit. Chu Mingyi endures one agonizing day after another, only to discover that Xiao Cisheng's younger brother, the loyal guard who protects him, and the wild prince who showed up uninvited have all developed an extraordinary obsession with him. Their rabid-dog fangs gradually come out.
One entanglement after another drains the life from him, while cruel truths repeatedly flay him alive. Just as Chu Mingyi finally resolves to be selfish for once and end this endless nightmare, those people all come to their senses, kneeling beside him and half-pleading, half-threatening him to live.
Yet Chu Mingyi pours out his medicine and sits listlessly day after day, waiting for the last snow of his life.
Upright gentlemanly but vindictive, frail bottom x an obsessive top who switches seamlessly between peacock and rabid dog, etc.
Content warnings: 1. A frail bottom who vomits blood every three days and faints every five, but is tough as nails.
2. One-on-one pairings at different stages, rabid-dog unrequited love and an emotional breakdown, a rivalry among suitors, and a happy ending for multiple pairings.
3. The tops are wildly obsessed with him, and the possessive love has to be reciprocated. The bottom's feelings will depend on the situation.
4. The author's tastes are conventional. While writing, I get possessed and write whatever feels satisfying. This story is melodramatic and vulgar, with everything from coercive romance and confinement to redemption arcs and physical and emotional abuse.
5. Probably not suitable for people with extreme character preferences.
