The Tyrant's Sole Favorite: His Lowly Court Lady Relishes Being Spoiled

Xia Xiao Luo was a harmless little palace maid in the Imperial Kitchen. Her greatest ambition in life was to eat well, drink her fill, and retire in peace.

Little did she know that one glance would catch the eye of the tyrant on the throne, Murong Chen, a living King of Hell with blood on his hands and a gaze cold enough to freeze a person solid. He dragged her headlong into the palace’s perilous depths.

The harem was a treacherous place, and every concubine was as vicious as a wolf: Empress Luo, sweet-tongued but venomous; Consort Xiao, arrogant and domineering; and Consort De, Han Nuo, who hid her true nature…

Clutching the tyrant’s leg and trembling, Xia Xiao Luo begged, “Your Majesty, I’m timid. Please let me go!”

But Murong Chen pulled her into his arms and pinched her soft, delicate cheek. His voice was gentler than ever: “Call me husband, and I’ll give you my life.”

The harem was in an uproar! Everyone waited to see the little maid skinned alive and her bones pulled from her body.
