(Original title: Wolves Beneath Her Skirts)
(Cross-dressing heroine + possessive pursuit + revenge + melodramatic Mary Sue + one heroine, multiple love interests + a long road to winning her back)
Fu Yue was born into the Spirit Clan, guardians of the Southern Kingdom's royal family. They fought and died for the royals.
Her mother died a few years after she was born. To protect her, her father raised her as a boy and sent her to Mount Kunlun to hide her identity and recuperate.
The realm fell into chaos, with the Northern and Southern Kingdoms at odds.
When civil unrest broke out in the South, her father was forced by pressure from the royal family to summon her back from Mount Kunlun. The emperor suspected him of rebellion, so he took her hostage and planned to confine her in the palace.
All she wanted was to survive. But in the end, her entire clan died in the emperor's scheme, and she could only live in hiding, waiting for the day she could take revenge.
Those she once thought of as friends, and the man she loved, all watched her like predators. Driven by ambition and selfish desires, they would do anything to keep her imprisoned in the palm of their hands.
A pack of “wolves” circles beneath her skirts.
“Yue Nu, I want you to be the moon in my palm, shining on me alone.”
A few things to know before reading:
1. One heroine and multiple male leads. The heroine has no romantic experience, and all the male leads are chaste.
2. The male leads love only the heroine. This is a melodramatic Mary Sue romance written in a light, simple style.
3. This is not a story about a powerful heroine, so don't judge it by that standard.
4. The political intrigue is simplistic, so please don't scrutinize the logic.
