I Just Can't Do It

As servants in the White Prince's household, we often have grievances we can't share with anyone else: "Other people have gorgeous masters who could outshine the heavens. Ours is blind in one eye. How embarrassing!" "Other people's masters are clever and capable. Ours has nothing to do, so it's always 'Senior Brother' when there's work to be done. How shameless!" "Other people's masters are gentle and clever. Ours slaughtered every consort in the imperial palace. How bloody!" "Most importantly, our master is a female prince, and the candidate for her consort... is her fierce Senior Brother, who once punched the emperor hard enough to break his nose!" The Heavenly Master says a family cannot have two tigers, and that the fates of Senior Brother and Junior Sister clash. But the moment Lin Baiqi sees her Senior Brother, she transforms from a fierce tiger into a shy little kitten and burrows straight into his arms. When you hold high office, power struggles are unavoidable. The White Prince and her Senior Brother have spent years moving carefully, planning every step. The one line that brings them comfort is: Our first intentions remain unchanged, and my beloved is still by my side. 1. Happy ending, powerful male and female leads, devoted to each other, every moment of their lives. 2. There is only one male lead. No matter how dazzling the other men are, they're someone else's boys. 3. I won't abandon this story. Daily updates start June 7, though they may come rather late each day. 4. This isn't a fluffy, simplistic story. It's a rather "unusual" palace-intrigue novel. Though it's set in an ancient imperial palace, there isn't much conflict between women. Most of the struggles are factional power plays and contests for the throne. My current contemporary novel -> My completed historical novel -> Theme:
