[Political Intrigue and Reversals + A Demon Concubine’s Redemption + Multi-Love-Interest Mary Sue + Reimagined Historical References + Bonds Across Time and Space + Palace Secrets]
[A long-planned romance: Gao Wei × the captivating, clear-eyed Feng Yi | An aloof beauty bends for love × the first, second, and third male leads all love me × both leads are devoted only to each other]
P.S. The early chapters cover the ups and downs of daily life in the Cui household and two betrothal crises. Later, she is officially ennobled and a new arc begins, with political intrigue and a light ensemble cast. No cheats or golden fingers. A historical romance, not a straightforward power fantasy. A slow-burn novella. If that’s not your thing, please proceed with caution!
The ending is in the extra chapters. It’s a happy ending!
How unlucky is medical student Feng Yi?
She works herself to the bone at an unpaid internship, then gets hit by a car on her way home after buying a donkey-meat sandwich…
She opens her eyes and finds she has become Feng Xiaolian, the doomed nation’s demon concubine famous for being displayed naked, in a version where her family has been wiped out!
The original character’s story: orphaned, forcibly married, made the Crown Prince’s secondary consort because of an astrological reading, and given the name Feng Xiaolian. What an overpowered start!
The modern office worker gives up right away: if she has to be a demon concubine, she’ll be the most gradual and gentle one, the least infamous in the history books, a “demon concubine who sacrifices herself for her country”!
The cold and aloof Crown Prince has been plotting to win her over for a long time. She acts obedient and sweet to avoid trouble, while secretly using modern knowledge to fight epidemics and searching for a way back to the modern world.
The first, second, and third male leads each have their own motives, but she knows where she stands: the established historical outcome of the dynasty’s fall cannot be changed by anyone.

This is a parallel universe, not a historically accurate story. Historical fiction fans, please don’t hate me!
I listened to it in one go, the pace is very fast!
It's wonderful, and the writing is very comfortable. It's not pretentious or procrastinating. After reading it, I want to read the next chapter immediately. I'm willing to follow more!
The subject matter is a bit sexy and it is controlled hard. I would like to see more of it.
