The Regent Prince Thinks She Can Read Minds

The little emperor who plays the pig to eat the tiger, only to get eaten himself x the scheming Regent | Pretending to be in love at first, then doting on each other | Possessive love and a crematorium arc

Xiao Yan transmigrates into a book as a powerless little emperor, and is bound to a "Inner Voice Filter" System.

In the book, Regent Wan Guqing holds power over the court and is a villain who usurps the throne and murders the emperor. To protect herself, Xiao Yan decides to use the System to weave a tender lie for the villainous regent.

"Auntie is so gentle today. I like her so much."

"I can't understand these memorials. I wish Auntie would teach me more."

"The ministers at court are so scary. I keep having nightmares. I wish Auntie would stay with me every night."

Listening to those "inner thoughts" and watching the young girl put on a stern face on the dragon throne, the ice in Wan Guqing's heart gradually melts. She begins teaching the girl how to govern, shields her from open and hidden attacks, and tucks her in at night.

On the night of the palace coup, Wan Guqing is gravely wounded protecting the emperor. Even as she loses consciousness, she clings tightly to the little emperor. As her awareness fades, she hears that familiar voice, light with laughter:

"System, looks like this 'Inner Voice Filter' works pretty well."

"See how well she protected me."

"The Regent must never have imagined she'd be played by a little girl."

Wan Guqing's heart jolts, and she feels as if she has fallen into an icy abyss.

The next day, despite her wounds not having healed, Wan Guqing forces herself to attend court.

Xiao Yan, who is about to purge the Regent's faction and fears something may go wrong, immediately rushes over with red-rimmed eyes and chokes out, "Auntie, your injuries haven't healed. How can you be so careless with yourself? It breaks my heart to see you like this."

Wan Guqing gazes deeply at the young girl, whose acting is so convincing, then suddenly smiles. She slowly kneels, takes the girl's hand, and speaks with her usual respectful tone: "Your servant thanks Your Majesty for your concern."

That night, the Regent uses the excuse that "Your Majesty was frightened and needs looking after" to stay in the emperor's chambers, entirely within her rights.

Trapped between the sheets by that familiar presence, Xiao Yan hears the villainous regent whisper in her ear:

"Your Majesty longs for me day and night and wants me by your side... Your servant will grant your wish."

Only when the Regent pins her beneath her does Xiao Yan realize she may have taken things too far.

Next book: Before I Could Humiliate the Enemy General

The enemy nation's obsessive, cold, beautiful war god x a weak, helpless, laid-back college student

Mu Lingyuan, a general of the Ye Kingdom, is ambushed on the battlefield and taken prisoner. She is sent to the estate of the little princess of the Yun Zhao Kingdom as a slave. The princess despises her defiance and uses every means at her disposal to torment her. Beatings, branding, withholding food and water... She even strips off Mu Lingyuan's clothes and humiliates her as she pleases.

Mu Lingyuan despises the little princess, who has nothing but a pretty face. Later, she escapes back to the Ye Kingdom, regains command of the army, and leads her cavalry to conquer the city. The first thing she does is turn the princess who humiliated her into a human swine with her own hands.

When Chu Yingxin transmigrates into the story, she is holding a red-hot branding iron and has her bare foot on Mu Lingyuan's face. The future god of slaughter is chained up and covered in blood, yet still raises her eyes to glare at her.

Chu Yingxin's hand shakes, and the branding iron clatters to the ground. Remembering what happened to the original character, her legs nearly give way.

The next moment, she quickly unlocks the chains, takes off her robe, and wraps it around Mu Lingyuan's battered body. Her voice trembling, she says, "D-don't be afraid... From now on, I'll protect you."

Mu Lingyuan, who was just about to die with her: "...?"

Which one of us is afraid?

Chu Yingxin looks at the god of slaughter before her, trembling with fear. She thinks that if she treats Mu Lingyuan well, she can change the ending where she is turned into a human swine.

But the damned System tells her she must follow the original plot and humiliate the enemy general, making Mu Lingyuan turn evil, or the world will collapse.

Chu Yingxin: Isn't she evil enough already?

At the System's urging, Chu Yingxin shuts her eyes tight and says in a trembling voice, "I-I order you to drink this bitter medicine, even if it makes you sick. Otherwise, otherwise I'll spank you..."

System: ?

Later, Mu Lingyuan indeed dons her armor again and reclaims the lost territory.

Chu Yingxin breathes a sigh of relief. Before the enemy army can breach the city, she packs her belongings and escapes the palace, assuming a false name and hiding in a remote border town.

She never imagined that she would wake up one day to find the town surrounded by a large army.

Mu Lingyuan, dressed in military uniform, walks slowly toward her.

"Little Princess, did you think I wouldn't find you if you ran all the way here?"

"Little Princess, you promised you would treat me well from now on. Why didn't you keep your word?"
