My Face Hurts, but My Heart Is Sweet

Feng Jingxuan, the carefree prince and imperial uncle of the Jing Kingdom, is peerlessly handsome and wields immense power at court. He’s also a notorious ladies’ man who never lets anyone get close. The hearts of Kyoto’s noblewomen flutter at the sight of him, yet none can melt his icy heart. Everyone says the prince’s standards are impossibly high, but they don’t know that he’s already been completely wrapped around the finger of Shangguan Yaxuan, his elder brother, Emperor Feng Jingyao’s sister-in-law. She’s the seemingly gentle but actually mischievous young lady of the prime minister’s household.

After an “accident” at a palace banquet, the prince was “unfortunately” stuck with this little troublemaker from the Shangguan family. “How can this prince’s good name be treated as a joke?” “Your Highness, will you take responsibility, or should I take responsibility for you? Pick one!” From then on, the aloof prince became a devoted husband whose daily routine had just three tasks: dote on her, dote on her, and dote on her!

Shangguan Yaxuan: “Your Highness, I heard the Minister of Rites’ daughter sent you a purse?” Feng Jingxuan: “Burned it.” Shangguan Yaxuan: “Your Highness, I heard a foreign princess is coming to marry into the imperial family?” Feng Jingxuan: “Turned her down.” Shangguan Yaxuan: “Your Highness, I think I’ve gotten into trouble again.” Feng Jingxuan: “No matter. I’ll take care of it. My beloved, which mansion would you like to tear down today? I’ll bring you a ladder.”

See how two top-tier families, devoted to spending their lives together, join forces and set off a storm of sweet romance in Kyoto! This book is also known as The Imperial Uncle Keeps Eating His Words and The Carefree Prince’s Beloved.
