New novel now available: The Marquis's Alluring Concubine
[Because some chapters were locked before, the opening passages of around a dozen chapters contain repeated text. If you've already purchased them, leave a comment below or send me your account number privately on Weibo, and I'll compensate you.]
Synopsis:
Everyone knows that the daughter of Zhongshan is as beautiful as an immortal and exceptionally intelligent. Yet the state of Zhongshan is weak, and princes from every quarter covet the princess.
In recent years, the Yan clan in the north has shown signs of producing a great ruler.
The King of Zhongshan hopes to form an alliance and is willing to marry off his daughter. But the Crown Prince of Yan is so arrogant that he declares he will take the princess of Zhongshan only as a concubine.
Jiang Ran never expected to be reborn and return to the time two years ago when her marriage to Yan was being discussed. Just now, the new King of Yan, who had declared that he would take her only as a concubine, stormed the palace with Yan troops. Her entire family was slaughtered by the Yan army's swords, and he took the dagger she had intended to use to kill herself and subjected her to every humiliation.
Fortunately, she has been reborn. Jiang Ran suppresses her trembling and faces the King of Zhongshan, torn between his options. "I will marry him!"
When she first entered the Eastern Palace as a bride, Jiang Ran could not forget her fear and hatred of Chu Che from the day he stormed the palace in her previous life. But gradually, she realizes that Chu Che seems somewhat different from the man she remembers...
Note: The heroine is reborn; love and hate in equal measure; fictional setting; happy ending; one-on-one romance; both leads are virgins. Sweetness mixed with angst; the heroine is weak in the early part. I will also update Weibo @Xue Luo Jian Jia after each day's update.
Additional note: The previous-life bonus chapter is angsty, and the male lead was not a virgin in his previous life. If that bothers you, please think twice before reading.
New novel synopsis: The Marquis's Alluring Concubine (Reborn) (You can add it to your collection from my author page)
As the only legitimate daughter of the Prince Regent's household and a commandery princess personally named and ennobled by the late emperor, Bei Ge grew up adored by everyone. But on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony, she fell into a mire and became a government courtesan in the Music and Dance Bureau, where anyone could bully her.
In her previous life, Bei Ge fought desperately to survive, wanting only to clear her father's name. In the end, her proud spirit was broken, and she died with resentment in her heart.
Awakening from a long dream, Bei Ge returns to the year of her coming-of-age. In the Music and Dance Bureau, amid the heady springtime atmosphere, she holds a glistening grape between her red lips, wraps her arms around a man's neck, and bends down to feed it to him mouth-to-mouth.
Bei Ge has finally learned how the world works. If she wants to survive and take revenge, she must first win over Xiao Fang, the ambitious Northern Marquis who commands a powerful army.
*
Bei Ge stays by Xiao Fang's side for years, carefully pretending to love him deeply.
She offers him her beauty, giving as good as she gets, and Xiao Fang treats her with great favor in return.
Bei Ge has always been clear-eyed: serving a man with her beauty will never last. So on the day she avenges her great wrong, she plans to retire to the countryside and live out the rest of her life in peace.
But she never expected...
Xiao Fang blocks Bei Ge in a corner, his face dark, as she tries to leave with her luggage. "Have you finished using me, Marquis?"
"...We were using each other."
As soon as Bei Ge finishes speaking, the man grips her slender, pale neck from behind. She bites her lip in fear, only to hear a gentle, resentful sigh: "Why can't you ever be satisfied?"
*
It takes Bei Ge a long time to discover that this seemingly simple exchange of power and sex is actually the culmination of someone's long-buried, cherished love.
*
Serving a man with her beauty, Bei Ge found a love that lasted and lasted.
One-on-one romance, both leads are virgins.

About readers asking what the title's "legitimate wife and concubine" means:
The title refers to a wife and a concubine. The heroine marries beneath her station and becomes a concubine early in the story. Later, because of the male lead's favor, she is elevated to wife, hence the title.
The setting is fictional! The Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues are just part of the story! No need to fact-check, thank you!
Theme: Keep striving to live
In the previous life, the male protagonist said that he loved the female protagonist and there was no other woman. In his heart, power and status were still the most important.
The previous life was even worse. The male protagonist actually touched many other women, and actually had a son and a queen? It was also a sad story, but the main text was sweet.
Sure enough, you should eat and drink while you are alive, and your wife and children should not be delayed. After she died, she continued to harass the heroine, leaving her with no way to escape and never rest in peace.
This kind of person is really a waste of earth to bury him when he died... It's disgusting
Who is this... Pretending for? Anyway, the old friend has turned into ashes, and his appearance is just for living people to see =_=
After watching the past life extras, I always feel that the male protagonist can actually manage his life without the female protagonist. The female protagonist is still not as good as his empire in his heart... Also, the next chapter is locked.
It took two days to finish it, and it was so sweet that it felt hot and painful, but I haven't seen such open and happy love in a long time! I like to leave the pain and misunderstandings in the past life aside and turn them into the design of this life's dreams, so that Chu Che can understand Jiang Ran's original shock and fear, and cherish the almost false and perfect reality in this life. I like Jiang Ran so much, I like brother Wei so much, and even the good-for-nothing Jiang Duo is not so annoying anymore. The only thing that is difficult to understand is that everyone has a beginning and an end. Why is Bai Yixiu still "unable to see the light" in the end (crying)
Almost every chapter has repeated text, and the most is several pages. The author's writing style is very good, but can it not be so watery? It feels like one-third of the full-text subscription is used to buy repetitive text.
I cried again and again. No matter how many times I watched it, I still want to cry. Why do I love be so much?
It's ugly, the plot behind it is too far-fetched, the language is pretentious and profound, and it's far-fetched
