I am the Son of Heaven's vicious hound, and the person he once openly admitted he held in his heart.
We were in love with each other, until everything changed the day Prince Han arrived in the capital.
Prince Han of the Mo Kingdom first asked to marry the Great Wei princess, then demanded the capital's most beautiful woman as his concubine. The princess is Dong Junbai's younger sister; the capital's beauty is mine.
Prince Han is thirty, and his thick beard makes him look like a savage. Both my sisters wept themselves to the floor at home, refusing to marry him.
I slipped into Prince Han's residence and held my embroidered spring saber to his neck. “Marry whoever you like, but don't even think about Chan'er or Qing'ai.”
To my surprise, Prince Han was perfectly agreeable. “Fine. I'll do as you say.”
Thinking the crisis was over, I heard Dong Junbai say, “The capital's most beautiful woman is a title shared by you and your sister. Prince Han made himself clear yesterday: he specifically asked to marry you. The Mo Kingdom has a powerful army. For the people of Great Wei, so they can live in peace and be spared the flames of war, and for my sake, Feng'er, you must marry him.”

The new princess sneaks out every day to meet her old flame?
The prince has tried everything to please her and even resorted to fisticuffs, though he has never won. Still, she won't change her ways.
Yan Changfei: “What will it take for you to look at me just once?”
Lu Qingfeng: “All that beard hurts my eyes. Get lost.”
The prince finally made up his mind and had all the Mo guards in the residence shave their beards, tie up their hair, and put on silk robes along with him.
Lu Qingfeng: “? What handsome man wandered into the wrong place? The prince of this household is a lecherous old man who likes men. If he sees a pretty face like yours, he'll drag you into his residence as a concubine. Hurry and go.”
The handsome man's face flushed slightly. “Feng'er, it's me.”
Only then did the thousand-household commander realize that this handsome man was the husband she saw every day and couldn't stand. She cried, “Why didn't you tell me you looked like this?”
Yan Changfei was delighted. So all it took to win his princess's heart was shaving off his beard.
But Lu Qingfeng looked around and said, “I just realized the guards in this residence are all quite handsome.”
Yan Changfei: “...”
Will these damn horns on my head never end?

A messy, angsty love triangle.
And an uplifting tale of a prince who likes men trying to get rid of his green hat.
The prince: a hairy, bearded top (Yan Changfei)
The skilled brocade-clad guard: a bottom (Lu Qingfeng)
The gentle, scheming emperor (Dong Junbai)
P.S. The top and bottom are both virgins. I haven't decided whether the ending will be happy or tragic yet. I'll add a tag once I do.
Great, the plot of the story is okay, but the story is too short and feels like a lot of things are not explained clearly.
Is the author really not interested in writing? 😢 😢 😢 I haven't finished writing yet. I can't bear to give a low score.
I haven't read enough, it's well written, but the ending is so unexpected, I always feel like I haven't finished it 😫😫😫😫
