IS A PROMISE OF PROTECTION ENOUGH?Jiang Suizhou, a history professor transmigrated into the frail and hated Prince of Jing, has been dealt quite the losing hand. His only bastion of hope? The captured, incapacitated Huo Wujiu, his concubine--and the general whose vengeance will end the Jing dynasty.
But Jiang Suizhou's not going down with the ship! He joins hands with Huo Wujiu with a promise--protection now for protection in the future--and seeks out a physician to heal Huo Wujiu's legs. The two men's bond and trust deepens as they step beyond their mutual obligations to trade blows with Minister Pang, the puppeteer pulling the corrupt court's strings.

'Now here was someone who willingly chose to bind his own hands and feet and toss away his sword, who intended to stay at Jiang Suizhou’s side no matter the personal cost, humiliation, and all, simply because he’d sworn to protect him.
He didn’t seem to be alone anymore.'
Volume 2 delivered and completely met all my expectations, exceeding them in many ways. The political intrigue was intensely more complex and layered in this installment, capturing a deeper sense of danger and treachery that made the suspense all the more compelling. The pervasive feeling of impending doom that hangs over the setting becomes even more palpable, amplifying the tension throughout.
Jiang Suizhou truly shone in this volume, demonstrating in a remarkable way that he deserves awards for his acting prowess. The skill he exhibits in portraying a malicious, spoiled prince, switching seamlessly from arrogant to vulnerable, makes for a captivating read. His ability to embody contrasting personas with such ease makes him such a compelling protagonist.
Huo Wujiu's character development in this volume was phenomenal. I finally gained a clearer understanding of his personality, the mischievous streak he has, his love for teasing Jiang Suizhou, and how these traits highlight his sharp wit and playful nature. His interactions always manage to bring a smile to my face, revealing a character who is both cunning and charming.
Their relationship in this volume was filled with beautiful, aching pining, and it was executed perfectly. Both characters are yearning for each other, their feelings bubbling just beneath the surface, yet neither has fully realized the romantic nature of their connection. The emotional depth of this slow-burning romance was simply top-notch, making every subtle gesture or glance all the more meaningful.
By the end of this volume, I felt so well-fed emotionally; my love for slow-burning romances and for love stories that are sweet, tender, and deeply moving was thoroughly fulfilled.
In conclusion, this volume did not disappoint, and I eagerly look forward to volume 3.

“Before today, he never realized that joy, too, needed to be shared with someone in order to be truly savored.
But not just anyone. It had to be with a certain special someone in particular.”
Ugh! I honestly didn’t want this volume to end. I picked it up thinking I would just read a little, and then rest, then somehow I was already at the last page! That happened waaaay too fast. I liked where the volume ended, but I’m pissed that the next volume is not yet available. Jiang Suizhou had my attention the whole time. He’s so restrained and so aware of himself that even the smallest change in his expression or reaction stands out right away. That’s what made him interesting to me. It always felt like he had a lot going on in his head, but he only let the tiniest bit of it show. Huo Wujiu, on the other hand, worked for me for different reasons. He is much easier to read, even when he’s quiet. A lot of what he feels comes through in the way he watches Jiang Suizhou and the way he steps in without making a big deal out of it.
The part I liked the most was watching the two of them around each other. Their relationship doesn’t suddenly change all at once. It builds in small ways, and I like that a lot. The tension is there from the start, but it stays in the background. It shows up in pauses, in things they don’t say, and in little moments where they seem close to understanding each other, and then miss it again. I went back to re-read a few scenes right after because those parts were my favorite. There’s just something really good about characters who are clearly affecting each other while neither of them fully knows what to do about it yet. That made them a lot more interested to read for me.
I was also into the plot the whole time. There’s always this feeling that more was happening than what was being said out loud, and I liked trying to unravel them as I read. The political side of the story, the choices that characters make, and the way details come out slowly made everything interesting for me. I can see why some people would call it slow, but I didn’t mind at all. It gave the story more weight, and it gave the character moments more space. The ending got me bad! I closed the book happy, but also with that feeling of wanting to start the next volume asap. Too bad it hasn’t been released yet.

I tired to physically consume this book no less than four times like teeth on paper full biting like a rabid animal as an emotional response to the will they won’t they energy happening like I can’t handle anymore lingering glances and acts of devotion and stolen touches someone just confess already dammit

Never in my lifetime would I have ever thought that I'd actually like the miscommunication trope. I absolutely loathe it. But... it works in this story! 😂 It actually benefits the relationship of the main character and the love interest, and I'm still trying to wrap my mind around that. 😲🤯 This story is so freaking good, I swear it is the most fun I've had with a story all year. I wouldn't change a single thing about the characters, the setting, or the plot.
Jiang Suizhou and Huo Wujiu are an adorable pair to watch as they try to make sense of their feelings for each other. I appreciate how, despite the amount of political scheming and backstabbing that is taking place in the background, the story manages to keep their relationship the focus. They are so inexperienced, confused, and endearing when it comes to their feelings that I couldn't stop giggling and smiling whenever they interacted. Definitely 5 stars. On to volume 3.

June 8, 2026The writing is really good. I just don’t feel like I’m engaging with the characters and the story the way I’d expected to. I guess partly because it’s been six months since I read the first volume 😅 I think I’d benefit from binging all 4(?) books in one go, once they’re out. Really liked the politics/drama focus in the first volume from what I remember, but the 32% I’ve read so far here seems focused elsewhere, and I was kind of zoned out.
I’ll come back to this one day, I swear 😭

If you enjoy a “cunning yet pathetic meow-meow x dark, dangerous daddy who’s only gentle for their beloved” pairing with a hearty dose of miscommunication thrown in, PLEASE stop sleeping on this series!!!!!
To me, this is a story that really underlines why danmei is the better version of romantasy.
Both genres make use of similar tropes and storytelling choices but danmei invests the effort to actually cultivate these relationships and dynamics—as the audience expects and demands.
And, the romance does not suffer for having a developed, cogent plot.
In fact, I’d argue it ENHANCES the romance—because there are stakes in the world in which it is occurring. Consequences could be incurred. There’s an internal consistency to the world and the characters who inhabit it and to the choices that are made because of those circumstances and not just because the author has contrived a series of scenarios they must include to satisfy algorithms and sales metrics???????
(You know what sells books and captures attention???? Actual good storytelling!!!! Try it sometime.)
How novel, to actually craft a story in which tropes are present but do not subsume or substitute the plot?
Anyway.
I’ll stop now. I’m screaming at the clouds.
BUT, my initial recommendation still stands—if you are looking for a captivating, historical fiction + slow-burn, queer romance that really uses miscommunication in a novel, thoughtful way that will have you kicking your heels as you read, pick up this series. It won’t disappoint~

It's a perfect feel-good-but-still-adventure novel. I forgot how much I liked this chain of "oh no he likes me - oh no he doesn't - oh no I like him" the first time. I liked it again 😁

Yessss, ich möchte nicht zu viel sagen, aber ich wollte einfach immer weiter lesen. Der Point of View verwirrte mich ab und an, aber irgendwie ergibt es Sinn und ich hatte sehr viel Spaß beim Lesen.

His countless enemies watched him like hawks, ready to dive for his throat at the first opening—and yet so many other people’s lives depended on him. There was no one he himself could rely on.
But now…
Now here was someone who willingly chose to bind his own hands and feet and toss away his sword, who intended to stay at Jiang Suizhou’s side no matter the personal cost, humiliation and all, simply because he’d sworn to protect him.
He didn’t seem to be alone anymore.

So much great relationship development in this volume. The pining from Wujiu and the obliviousness from Sizhou were so so fun to read.
I just want Pang Shao to die already.
Also wish the author would really stop blue balling us for their first kiss, especially when she includes so many kiss worthy moments.

this is so beautifully written, i am in love with this series, both volumes were so addicting to read, it’s so engaging and witty, the slow burn between the characters is incredible! i need another volume already

Banger!!! This was a stressful read, the wheels are turning, feelings are growing, things are HAPPENING. The more danmei I read the more I realize I really do enjoy reading about fucked up court politics. This has that and yearning and isekai like she was literally made for me. Always a sucker when the love interest falls first ESPECIALLY when they're mad about it and this delivers that in spades. Mwah🤌

I like slow pacing and realization of their romantic feelings.
I like the fact that there is no violence towards each other, as it sometimes happens in Chinese novels.

I love the sick in bed trope. When either character is sick or wounded, they do little acts of kindness. Like oh, Huo Wujiu treatment has side affects. Let me read to him to distract him from the pain. Oh, Jiang Suizhou induced an illness in order to find a physician to treat Huo Wujiu's legs? Let me commit murder and destruction of property for him. You know, it's the little things that really shows they care.
Huo Wujiu perspective is finally getting more focus and I adore how he starts questioning his emotions but quickly accepts that he want to spoil and protect Jiang Suizhou.
And the more Jiang Suizhou interacts with Huo Wujiu, the more honest he is with his reactions. He no longer needs to act as the villain in front of him and Jiang finds out that he is actually pretty softhearted but burdens himself with other people's issues. Maybe too much. Jiang is constantly putting himself in harms way for Huo's sake and Huo confronts him to stop. Jiang is not alone anymore, he has someone to relay on now.
I also find it funny that Huo is comfortable to tease Jiang, but the author describes Jiang facial expression like he was just bullied and it tugs on Huo's heart string.
SPOILERS
The scenes that really stuck to me was when Jiang emotions overwhelms him when he sees Huo wounded and a single tear escapes. Huo can't help but hold him.
When Huo stands for the first time and realized he wants Jiang to celebrate this moment. Then Jiang looks for him because he wants to drink for his own accomplishments. Resulting him getting drunk and Huo tricking him that he doesn't finishes his cup.
And Jiang opening the windows at night to induce another illness for Huo. Leading Huo to speak out for Jiang's health. Then Jiang's final realization.

The second volume of the story of Jiang Suizhou, a modern-day history professor who has transmigrated to past, continues where the first left off. As Prince of Jing, the sickly brother of what he knows to be the last emperor of the current dynasty, he uses his knowledge of what’s to come to change the outcome more favourable for himself.
Jiang Suizhou’s main aim is to try to prevent Huo Wujiu, the enemy general who’ll eventually be victorious, from killing him, as he knows will happen. He’s a bit out of his depth with Huo Wujiu though, because the present reality doesn’t match the history records. Huo Wujiu is his prisoner and his concubine, like a paper he was grading before he transmigrated suggested, much to his anger.
Huo Wujiu is badly injured because of the torture he’s been submitted to. Jiang Suizhou, together with his two advisors, both pretending to be his concubines, have come up with a plan to find a doctor for him. Jiang Suizhou will fall gravely ill—thanks to a poison—and when the imperial doctors are unable to heal him, he can summon his own doctors.
The plan works better than he could believe. The doctor is capable and in no time at all, he can make Huo Wujiu’s legs work again. Not that they tell Jiang Suizhou. And he tells Jiang Suizhou that his sickly constitution is because of poisoning in his childhood and can be reversed.
The second volume was full of court intrigue. Jiang Suizhou is busy trying to thwart the schemes of the emperor’s uncle, the Grand Chancellor. He’s successful, but it brings the chancellor’s wrath on him. Soon, his life is in danger. Luckily for him, Huo Wujiu isn’t as helpless as he appears.
But the best part of the second volume was the development of the relationship of Jiang Suizhou and Huo Wujiu. It emerges during long hours when Jiang Suizhou sits by Huo Wujiu’s bedside when he suffers from the effects of the healing process, and blossoms in their scheming against the emperor. There’s still secrets between them and many misunderstandings of each other’s intentions, but some sweet moments too. And the ending brings clarity to one thing: Jiang Suizhou has definitely caught feelings.
This continues to be well-written and entertaining. There’s nothing unnecessary, no fillers and no repetitions. The characters are well-formed and the plot is interesting. The romance is slow-burn, but worth rooting for. I’ll definitely read more.

I feel similarly to the first book, but I think: well this does read as ONE long book that happens to be cut into four parts. They even continue with chapter numbers from volume one. I could have easily read this in one sitting but I tried as hard as I could to make it last longer than the first installment (which I read in one day), knowing I have to wait four months for volume three and then another four months after that for the last volume. I wasn't that good about it. I will possibly have to reread the first two books to tide myself over till I have the third in my hands.
So we carry on directly from where we left off in volume one, where the Emperor and the Grand Chancellor continue to scheme pettily and bring the dynasty down with their limited thinking, and the Prince of Jiang and his War God Concubine deftly counter every move. What is very cute in this volume is how the heroes each keep small secrets from one another (often about their plans to protect the other) while simultaneously becoming confidants and simultaneously starting to have feelings for each other. It's just written in a very cute, very Asian romantic comedy way, I enjoyed it. Also, a lot of comedy comes from the loyal subservient characters, who zealously want what their masters want, but who make assumptions about what that is. I had a chuckle every time we are privy to the thoughts of these innocent bystanders.
This is a very light book, even though there are a lot of deaths (no one the reader ever "meets", always rather faceless, sometimes named as henchmen to the bad guys, they're dispatched quickly, mostly off page), and scenes of bullying, violence, and sickness. I just had a good time rooting for the good guys (and their romance) and for the comeuppance of the bad dudes. Just pure fun.

I love how this one only further develops their relationship and the trust that they build in each other. Also the fact that despite it being painfully obvious to the reader is fun.
I really do enjoy this one, to be honest, and I am really looking forward to the third book and how it'll go. I do wonder whether my theory is true or not.

I continue to enjoy the heck out of this series. The first half of the book was a little slow for me since the two of them were apart a lot or semi fighting. But the second half really made up for that with all of the action and relationship building we did. The political scheming in this book was also really exciting to witness. Overall a great continuation to the series with a great final chapter. Can't wait for the next book!

I don't know what kind of crack the author put into this novel, but I cannot stop reading. The moment this second volume dropped into my hands, I wanted to do nothing but read it. And now I have to wait for the third volume how long?!
100% recommend it. Read it, people. I repeat, read it. This is one of those books you have to read at least once in your lifetime.

I love Jiang Suizhou and Huo Wujiu so much. Like a ridiculous amount. My friend suffered the brunt of my addiction as I read this book, so she can attest to that. 🤣
I spent my time grinning like an idiot while I read this. The story itself is a good balance of sweet and adorable with tension and drama. I love it. So keen for the next book!

I enjoyed this second volume even more than the first. The main characters are finally talking to each other and slowly breaking down their initial distrust. The story had much better pacing and plenty of action to keep things moving forward. Really looking forward to the next volume.
