Synopsis

[Emperor ✘ Heir Apparent ✘ Grand Tutor's Daughter]

The second male lead wins her heart!!!

A broken relationship that won't be mended ✘ Childhood sweethearts finally get their wish

Among the many noble young ladies in the capital, the only one every great family’s son was eager to marry was Wen Yu, daughter of Grand Tutor Wen.

Sadly, this peerlessly beautiful woman was brought into the palace by imperial decree and made the emperor’s favorite consort.

Emperors are usually fickle, and his favor was as fleeting as a flash in the pan.

In the autumn of Jinghe Year Five, Lady Wen, the most favored woman in the six palaces, was confined by imperial order for causing Lady Yang to miscarry. But the very next day, word spread that Lady Yang had died suddenly that night after being poisoned by Lady Wen. The emperor flew into a rage and ordered Lady Wen to reflect at Qingyuan Temple, without specifying how long she must stay.

Lady Wen was gone for two whole years.

With the Empress Dowager about to return to the palace, Wen Yu suddenly received word that the damned emperor was coming to Qingyuan Temple to pray for blessings, bringing his whole flock of pretty consorts along.

Wen Yu: “...”

The consorts all said Lady Wen had completely lost the emperor’s favor. In truth, Wen Yu was the one deliberately avoiding Xiao Yu.

She said she regretted agreeing to enter the palace for him.

She said she would never make up with him.

She even said she didn’t want to grow old with him, and begged him to set her free.

Only then did Xiao Yu realize that he had lost the girl who once said she would share half her life with him, as long as he lived to a hundred.

What Xiao Yu found even harder to accept was that the young man he had never thought twice about had finally married Jiao Jiao and bowed before their elders.

Watching them whisper intimately together, Xiao Yu had to admit he was mad with jealousy. He shot Shao An in a fit of madness and imprisoned her in the palace, hoping she would return to his side.

But he was not the only one who desired her. Even someone by his side...

I'd like to give more detailed preferences to make it easier for everyone to find books they're actually interested in. Palace-intrigue story: the heroine is crafty and resourceful, but won't provoke others unless they provoke her. The emperor favors her, and eventually she becomes his one and only.
