Honest rate: 4.7 so it's ok to put 5 stars lol

Ok let's take it seriously.

Is this fluffy? Not quite.

If we're just gonna focus on how cute our little prince was then yeah you can say that, but to find out that there's something hidden behind those cuteness you really can't say this story is fluffy. It's a bit dangerous actually, although it's not unusual since well, that's how it usually was between the heirs and the throne, still you would feel sorry for our little prince. He's not s*upid, he... more>> knows whats happening and he knew how dangerous his situation was, that's why I'm glad that he's still clear headed despite of being too inlove with his Yan Daren.

When it comes to our Yan Daren, I'm just glad that he become straightforward when he's finally clear about how he felt towards the emperor and what he really feel towards his (future) wife. And from that moment on, he did everything just to get him back and our little prince was lucky with that.

Over all, this is a light read, which is good to spend your time with during the weekend. <<less

Surprisingly enjoyable.

The story mostly focused on the MC long term crushing.

The palace intrigue snuck up on me.

Cute and sweet story about a pure-hearted young prince and his life-long love for a palace bodyguard. You get a little bit of everything - fluff, sadness, palace intrigue, unrequited love, betrayal, and smut. Quite satisfying for a short story. Translator does an excellent job.

Xiao jiu? Xiao jiu! Such click bait ah, click bait I tell you! Total position change. What love? Where is love! Your just looking for a substitute! I cl**ked this after seeing the title and cover! Truly, never judge a book by it's cover! Xiao jiu, Xiao jiu, shen jiu! Wuwuuwu huhuu, all I got was a bitter novel with tooth rotting cuteness in the end.

3.5-4 stars - It's a nice little story, some angst and smut towards the end, otherwise just pretty sweet. Nothing really special or memorable, but good if you want a short, cute romance.

I absolutely loved reading this novel. It is very well written and very well translated.

I found that there was nothing unnecessary in this novel, I can’t really find a single thing to criticise. It is very easy to read, you will never get bored.

It may not be an epic story plot wise but nevertheless it manages to make the reader fully comprehend what the author is trying to convey.

5/5

Fluff, just fluff.

For a novel tagged as smut, the smut was just the bonus for me, cause the plot and the story was written really well.

Ahhhh! So cute! MC, Xiao Jiu, is adorable. I love how he is child-like and innocent even through his difficult times. ML, Yan Heng, is worthy of MC's love. Honorable, self sacrificing, and kind... one of my favorite types of MLs.

... more>>
Spoiler

MC has been cherished since he was young. He was the favorite of his father, the old emperor. ML is the bodyguard of MC's older brother, the crown prince. ML is about ten years older than MC and even carried him as a baby.

MC loved ML first. While ML was away at war, MC's father died and there was a controversy since there was an imperial edict declaring MC as the new emperor. Although MC didn't want the throne and his brother the crown prince still became emperor, his brother still wanted to kill him. ML discovered this situation and tried to protect MC. In the end they had their happy ending.

Of note, I hope the new emperor lived in regret. I think he did love ML in his own way because he noticed that ML was no longer carrying the jade that he gifted ML.

omg such an amazing story!!! Why haven't I read it till now.

It was such an beautifully written story, ahhh, I fell for it.

I love love the MC, he was so smart, cute and awesome👏. And ML as well, such a cold and yet loving, caring person.

... more>> Reading this novel made me feel such different ranges of emotion from happiness to sadness, to despair and agin ecstasy.

While reading a emotional scene, I don't know why but tend to imagine the worst case scenarios in my head and that makes me cry so muchh.

This novel is really so niceee, it should be highly recommend one. And the smutty scenes they were few but enough to satisfy my heart.

I love this story alot and it didn't even take me long to complete reading just 25 chapters.

I would highly recommend this story to every single person who's seeking a good bl story.

It's really a beautiful story.

Thank you author and translators, I am really grateful for ur hard work

And guys do recommend me a similar one like this story, I'll pray to god so that he'll bless u🤲 😂😂 <<less

I thought this was a light hearted pursuing the ML ancient novel with a bit of smut BUT!! It has conspiracies!!

I really pity the naivety of MC. I feel bad since he was laughing before but now he was crying. I really Hate his brother who proclaimed himself as emperor

The ML really fell in love with MC
Spoiler

I thought it was the ML who betrayed the MC

Spoilerly review below: Our MC from a very young age knew exactly who his favorite person in the entire world was. As he grew older those feelings eventually morphed into love.

The ML knew from a young age he had inappropriate feelings for his best friend and liege. Trying to outrun and hide those feelings was painful. The only comfort he received was from the younger brother of his best friend. The solace he unintentionally found in the boy’s presence was pure. Through the years as his first love disappoints that... more>> original feeling turns to ash allowing something new to grow.

Time, political intrigue and our MC’s persistent unwillingness to separate from his love leads to a happy ending for all. If you don't have a smile on your face by the end, you weren’t paying attention. :) <<less

it's sweet and fluffy❤️. And has a very happy lovely ending! I can't believe emperor would even think to do something like that but I'm not surprised. This reminds me Scarlet Heart Ryeo Korean drama. Xiao Jiu's character sounds so much like 10th Prince Wang Eun. (Played by Byun Baekhyun from kpop group EXO) in that drama. Innocent, sweet and caring.

This story is super cute, sweet, but surprisingly, very serious. I smiled while reading, but I also shed tears. I have no idea how the author managed to pack so much in such a short story without overwhelming or boring the readers. Anyway, I really liked this short story and I am sure to reread it in the future.

I'm so into age gap bl novels this one become one of my fav novels ever Xiao Jiu so adorable and Yan gege character so charming
Spoiler

All night, he knelt in front of the Emperor’s study.

He begged the Emperor, “Since His Majesty has gotten what he wants, can Rui Wang-dianxia be released and given a way to live? I’ll take him and keep him away from the capital, and from henceforth, he’ll no longer approach even half a step near the capital.”

The Emperor’s voice was cold and merciless, and he was very different from the gentle Little Emperor in his impression. He said, “And if We insist on taking his life?”

Yan-daren raised his head and looked straight at him. “Then this subject will do everything to protect him.”

OMG this was the most amazing part of the whole novel

I don’t think this is pure fluff. There is angst and some sad parts where I felt really sad. First of all fck the emperor I hoped he’d die at the end but too bad nothing happened to him. I mean looking at it logically what could happen to an emperor ofc he is going to be fine but he fcking irritated me a lot ugh I cursed him so much that I’ve ran out of swears. The MC is the best he is so cute I love him the... more>> ML is also really nice our couple is awesome but still there could be a part where we saw how the emperor suffered from his decisions. I know this is the ancient world but It just feels so wrong trying to kill your brother whom you yourself looked after for so many years based on your assumptions idk I can understand him maybe but at the same time I don’t still he is a bad person and deserved a punishment in my opinion. Last chapters were so cute. Recommended <<less

This had potential to be a longer story, but, as it is right now, isn't bad.

I love the progression of their relationship. It was all very sweet and wholesome. There's a tiny bit of angst, but the story doesnt dwell too much on it.

Im also glad that there were sections dedicated to the ML's side of the story which cleared up many things.

A good read especially if youre coming from a longer dogblood drama fiction hehe
