Shen Li thinks she has the script of someone who saves the villain.
She never expected to get caught up in a vicious prince who lusts after the Imperial Consort and secretly digs a tunnel to abduct her!
*
In The Emperor's Favor, Prince Xuan Xiao Yunsi wields power over all, possesses extraordinary talent, and has a handsome face. Unfortunately, he's a villain. With his armor drenched in blood, he slaughters his way into the depths of Dongling's imperial palace, then takes his own life.
After transmigrating into a book as the Imperial Consort, Shen Li is forced to take on the task of saving the villain. That would be bad enough, but how has the frail, always-in-bed Consort Xian turned into her beautiful, flirtatious best friend? Her lifelong-conservative friend spends her days suffering through conversations with an immortal-like Imperial Preceptor, and her nights accompanied by a pair of gentle, alluring young eunuch twins. There's even a handsome young general on the roof beam.
Shen Li: It's not like I'm jealous!
Shen Li goes to great lengths to help the villain, and then... he falls for her. And that's not all. Shen Li takes things too far and makes a mistake, leading to the elegant and noble male lead being abandoned by the female lead!
After being hunted for hundreds of streets by the original male lead, Shen Li can't take it anymore. Just as Xiao Yunsi's fate has changed and he's become a dashing young man, Shen Li takes the fake death pill her best friend gave her and says offhandedly, "Bestie, cover for me. Just say the person I loved died, and I didn't want to live anymore."
She promptly fakes her death and escapes, but once she leaves, everything falls apart.
After years of putting on an act, Xiao Yunsi goes completely mad. He's been pretending to be well-behaved all these years!
So Shen Li doesn't love him!
The original male lead, who has hunted Shen Li down hundreds of times, is also in despair: "You bastard, Shen Li! At least tell me where my wife is first!"
The two men threaten her with knives, and Consort Xian trembles with fear. "I'll talk, I'll tell you everything! Bestie, I'm so sorry!"
It's good! The pacing in the beginning is great, looking forward to the rest! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
