Song Ling is as cool and aloof as her name suggests. She entered an ancient temple at the age of four to chant sutras for her deceased mother, but one day the new emperor ordered her to enter the palace.
She wanted to refuse, but her father, nearly fifty, had just fathered a son. Once the boy grew up, he would surely dig up her mother's grave to make room for his own mother.
Song Ling decides to brave the imperial harem and steal a baby to give her mother an heir.
On her first day in the palace, people treat her like a goddess and worship her.
Ye Han Che: Why does this goddess look so much like my childhood first love?
Song Ling: The first thing you need to know about having a baby is the position. I'm studying hard!
Ye Han Che: She was lonely and miserable growing up, and only wants to have a child with me. What has she done wrong?
But I can't give her what she wants. I've truly failed her!
Song Ling: The second thing you need to know about having a baby is that if you don't know the positions, you make up for it with frequency!
Ye Han Che: She must love me so much that she can't bear to leave my side for even a moment!
Song Ling: The third thing you need to know about having a baby is not to drink the contraceptive soup!
Ye Han Che: She suffered so much in the mountains, yet she never complained to me at all. All she wants is a child with me. She truly loves me so much!
Song Ling: The fourth thing you need to know about having a baby is to keep the empress from taking your name off the emperor's roster!
Ye Han Che: She respects the empress so much that she doesn't want to put me in a difficult position! I've truly failed her. Promote her!
Much later, when Ye Han Che's true first love appears before him...
In short, this is the story of a simple, straightforward, heartless concubine determined to steal a baby, and a scheming emperor with eight hundred tricks up his sleeve who keeps deluding himself.
P.S. Palace-sleeping story (the heroine doesn't fight, she just lies around, and she'll draw her blade at the drop of a hat.) SC
