Before meeting Lu Nanxing, the Crown Prince thought that stealing a minister's wife was a violation of all morality.

After meeting Lu Nanxing, he decided he was simply following in his father's footsteps.

A man who was a peasant in the morning can be welcomed into the emperor's court by evening. Lu Nanxing's husband goes from being a poor scholar to the second son of a duke's family, who had been lost years ago.

Everyone envies them. Lu Nanxing's husband is a member of the Crown Prince's maternal family, and Lu Nanxing becomes a physician in the Eastern Palace. The couple's future looks bright.

To Lu Nanxing, this sudden rise makes her tremble with fear.

The Crown Prince suddenly suffers a headache. As she feels along his meridians to find the right acupuncture points, he takes her hand and secretly rubs her knuckles with his thumb.

Gifts from the Eastern Palace keep appearing on her desk, including accessories specially made for the imperial consorts.

When the Crown Prince chooses his consort, he holds up a token and asks her, "What if I gave this token to you?"

Lu Nanxing is shocked and terrified. She can only hope that her husband will soon be sent away from the capital. But what she receives instead is news of her husband's death, a divorce letter from her grandmother, and her grandmother's order for her own niece to marry into the ducal family while carrying her husband's memorial tablet.

Amid thunder and torrential rain, she sinks to the ground, her hair and makeup in disarray. An oil-paper umbrella shields her from the rain. She looks up and sees the Crown Prince.

He gazes at her, soaked and disheveled, lifts her chin, and asks, "I have a ladder that leads straight to the heavens. Will you enter my Eastern Palace, Madam?"

Zhao Wenjun was born to the Empress and raised at the emperor's knee. Since childhood, he had scorned matters of love and remained unmarried for years.

Until he saw Lu Nanxing at his cousin's family reunion banquet and was struck by her beauty.

He wants her.

He greedily inhales his wife's natural scent. She is exceptionally delicate and cries easily, so he gently licks away her tears one by one.

He demands her without restraint, indulging in pleasure day and night, keeping her tightly imprisoned in his arms.

My lady, you should have been mine. For the next hundred years, you can only be buried beside me.

[Reader's Guide]

1. Dramatic and melodramatic. The male lead is a depraved bastard born into the imperial family.

2. While the female lead's marriage is still in effect, she never crosses the line with the male lead.

3. The female lead has past partners; the male lead has none.

[Coming Soon]

The person Su Yuexi hates most in this life is Cui Jue. They clashed for years, and she never forgot him. The person she likes most is his twin brother, Cui Min, who is upright and proper. Unfortunately, the two look exactly alike.

One day, she finds a hapless man in the river who is both blind and mute and has been poisoned by a Gu. She parts his hair and sees that it's Cui Jue. She keeps him in her room and torments him day and night, despite his desperate resistance. On the day his muteness begins to improve, "Cui Jue" restrains her wandering hand and says hoarsely, "Please, miss, show some restraint. I am the eldest son of the Cui family..."

She kisses him to stop his string of lies. "Cui Jue, you'd even pretend to be your brother just to trick me." She draws out a silvery thread, lifts his chin, and slips a candy into his mouth. "This is a love Gu. From now on, you, the second son of the Cui family, can only love me."

"Cui Jue" tries to dig the pill out, but it melts as soon as it enters his mouth. They make love, and "Cui Jue" becomes more and more to her liking in bed, though he still stubbornly denies it.

"If it weren't for the love Gu you gave me, I would never be someone who gave in to love."

Su Yuexi is confused. The thing she gave him was clearly candy. Where did he get a love Gu?

Then one day, the Cui family comes calling. Cui Jue drops his usual flippant attitude, bows, and explains that the eldest son has fallen off a cliff after being poisoned. He hopes she will set aside their past enmity and help find him.

Su Yuexi looks at the man in front of her. This one is Cui Jue. She closes the door and looks inside at Cui Min, tied to her bed and covered in bruises, and feels as if she's fallen into an icy abyss.

The impeccably mannered eldest son, who was always so proper, has been tormented by her. Can she even get away alive?
