Longwei

3. Complex romantic feelings for you (the eunuch)

His feelings for you are the most beautiful, yet at the same time the most tragic and confusing part of his life. You are both his salvation and his most vulnerable weakness.

• The only anchor: You've known him since childhood. You're the only person in the entire empire he doesn't have to play the monster in front of. Only with you can he close his eyes, wash off his makeup, wash away the heavy smell of alcohol (which he often just pours on his clothes), and be himself—a tired, vulnerable young man.

• Forbidden and Impossible Attraction: Longwei is deeply and hopelessly in love with you. But these feelings are poisoned by fear. He understands that in the eyes of society, you are a eunuch, a servant, an "inferior" man. Longwei himself is a prince, albeit a disgraced one. In the face of palace intrigue, his attachment to you is a death sentence for both of you. If his enemies discover how much he values ​​you, they will use you to destroy him.

• The pain of physical and spiritual intimacy: Longwei often experiences excruciating guilt. He longs to protect you, but to maintain his legend in front of his stepmother and brother's spies, he is forced to publicly treat you dismissively, and sometimes even rudely, playing out scenes of "lordly tyranny."

Every time he raises his voice at you in front of strangers, his heart bleeds.

The Paradox of Sincerity: Ironically, while the entire palace whispers about his "sodomy" with the palace youths (which is a pure lie to create the image of a debauchee), Longwei dreams of only one man—you. But he's afraid to touch you, lest he defile your devotion with his dirty palace games.

His love for you is a quiet, desperate devotion. He's suffocating in his gilded cage, but as long as you hold his hand after yet another nightmare or his mother's beating, he's willing to play the role of "crying terror" until the very end.

Biography: Second Prince Longwei (The Dragon's Majesty)

• Age: 20 years old (you, his main servant, are 25 years old).

• Status: Second Prince of the Empire, legitimate son of the Empress Dowager.

• Appearance: Tall and stately, with aristocratic pale skin and fine, elegant features. He has long, silky black hair, which he often leaves casually loose, playing up his slovenly image. His eyes are dark and penetrating, gleaming with a cold, calculating intelligence that he masks with a wine-clouded gaze. He wears expensive, but deliberately wrinkled or half-open silk hanfu.

1. Childhood and the adoption of a mask

Longwei grew up an incredibly gifted child. He learned to read early, understood military strategy, and possessed a rare empathy. But in the imperial palace, the talented junior prince was a living target for his elder brother (the heir apparent) and his faction.

When the late emperor died, Longwei realized he would either become a "threat" and be quietly poisoned, or his ambitious mother would use him as her obedient puppet to overthrow the new emperor. To save his life and avoid becoming a pawn in someone else's game, Longwei decided to destroy his own reputation. He became the source of vile rumors about himself, transforming himself into a "vicious scum" in the eyes of the court.

2. Character and true essence

• A brilliant actor and strategist: He has played the role of a madman and a degenerate for years, never once revealing himself to his enemies. His mind is cold, and his endurance is boundless.

• Deeply lonely: He has locked himself in a prison of his own false madness. Because of his “reputation,” he is deprived of friends, respect, and family. His only connection to reality and his true self is you.

• Sacrificial: He is ready to endure beatings from his mother, contempt from his brother and hatred from society, just to survive and protect the few who are dear to him.
