I Got Exposed After Framing the Ice-Queen Beauty

Princess Qin Yu of Fuguang is haughty and capricious. Whatever she wants, she can get.

The year she first met Shang Hengzhi, she happened to take a fancy to the notoriously untouchable commander of the Immortal Army.

The young general was aloof and self-controlled, and kept his distance from women.

And he was very upright, too.

Qin Yu wondered what someone so upright he seemed almost wicked would be like once he fell in love.

Qin Yu pursued him with great fanfare.

As it turned out, the aloof flower on a divine altar, supposedly uninterested in women, was surprisingly easy to hook.

One day, she pretended her cold poison had flared up, looking pitiful as she lured him onto her bed to warm her.

The young general finally gave in to his feelings and turned the tables, wrapping an arm around her slender waist.

For a moment, their clothes tangled together as they whispered and nuzzled close.

Just then, the others pushed open the door.

The young woman, who had been nestled in his arms moments before, suddenly changed her tune. She shoved him away and tearfully accused the Immortal Army of lawlessness and ruining her reputation.

Overnight, Shang Hengzhi was stripped of his command and banished to Guixu.

Five years later, in order to secure the support of the great clans, Qin Yu had no choice but to travel to the Immortal Capital and enroll in the academy.

On her very first day, she heard Shang Hengzhi's name.

The young man she had personally sent to Guixu was now famous throughout the Immortal Capital and wielded immense power, all thanks to saving the emperor.

That day, in the library, Shang Hengzhi closed in on her step by step. Forced against a bookshelf with nowhere to retreat, Qin Yu was trapped.

"Shang... Shang Hengzhi..." Qin Yu held him back and turned her face aside, embarrassed.

"Hah." Shang Hengzhi gave a cold laugh, pulled a book from behind her, and stepped back. "What are you hiding from?"

"Did you think I'd give you another chance to have people 'catch us in the act'?"

Happy ending / sweet romance / love story

The story begins with their first meeting five years ago, not with a reunion after a long separation.

A mountain of personal worldbuilding!

Coming next:

The vassal king of the Southern Frontier raises an army in defiance of an imperial decree, loses, and asks to surrender. After the Crown Prince says, "The princess is arrogant and insolent, and needs to be properly disciplined,"

Xie Yunyao, the vassal king's only daughter, is sent to the capital as a hostage.

Everyone expects the once pampered princess to keep her head down and behave.

But Xie Yunyao quickly finds herself a powerful protector.

Her protector is of noble birth and is also on good terms with the powerful Crown Prince.

With just a little cunning, Xie Yunyao manages to charm him into appearing everywhere by her side.

As the Crown Prince of the new dynasty, Qi Zhejing led troops into battle alongside his father as a young man and won great military honors. Cold and severe, he keeps his distance from women.

He cannot understand why his normally steady friend indulges a woman who is so obviously scheming and all surface, giving in to her at every turn.

Later, his friend comes to him to ask for his help in marrying Xie Yunyao.

Qi Zhejing remains expressionless and says only that Xie Yunyao's status is too sensitive, so the marriage is out of the question.

As the other man leaves, heartbroken,

Qi Zhejing turns back into the palace hall. The woman his friend is desperate to marry is pinned beneath him on the bed.

Xie Yunyao glares at him.

Qi Zhejing lifts her chin and gives a cold laugh before kissing her hard.

"You want to marry him? Not a chance."
