Matriarchy: The Pitiful One Keeps Running from Her Mad Tyrant

【Matriarchal society + both virgins + happy ending + mild angst, she pursues him but there's no groveling】 【Self-deluding tyrant × resilient, insecure sweetheart】 Xia Yao, emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, is arbitrary, violent, bloodthirsty, and cruel. Everyone fears her as a tyrant. Fortunately, she holds real power and is ruthless in her methods. She wages war against other nations and puts down rebellions at home, keeping her throne firmly secure. The one thing she can't have is the person from her dreams, whom she has searched for over many years in vain. Yu Juan, the ninth prince of the Yu Kingdom. The emperor of Yu fears Great Xia and has no choice but to humble himself, submit, and pay tribute. Yu Juan is one of those tributes. A little scene: Xia Yao looked at the person before her, who looked exactly like the figure in her dreams, and a wicked smile appeared on her lips. She thought, Yu really came through! They actually found the person she wanted! Only, the person she was looking for wasn't a lover, but an enemy. Just as Xia Yao was about to give an order, she saw the pitiful little face before her, tears streaming down it. Hey! Why are you making that face?! Do you think I don't dare kill you?! I... I... I just can't bear to. It would be a shame to ruin such a pretty face. I'll keep you around a little longer, at most. Three months later, it's still early. No rush. I'll have some fun first, then kill you once I've had enough. A year later, a ruler's word is law. Why are you in such a hurry? Three years later, ahem, can we pretend you didn't hear what I said earlier? Five years later, what did I say? I don't remember! Slander! It's all slander! I never said that!
