★★ Blurb:

Wei Mi knew from the very beginning that she'd been sent into the palace to become a favorite of the emperor.

But she never expected that the foolish little Crown Prince would capture her heart.

Reason won out over emotion, and she resolutely set out on a path of no return.

This realm rightfully belonged to him. She would protect it for him.

She didn't care if he came to resent her.

It was the late emperor's dying wish, and what he wanted in his heart as well.

You protect the realm. I'll protect you.

★★ I've seen the most treacherous hearts and walked the roughest roads. I thought I was steadfast enough, but in the end I realized that you've always been a pure haven and a beacon of light deep within my heart.

★★ I wrote this story a long time ago. The logic is muddled and the wording is poor, so read with caution.

Upcoming story blurb:

Blurb:

Duan Hui transmigrated into a book, becoming a love-brained princess consort who nearly drowned in the pond at her own home.

According to the original story, by this point the original princess consort had outlived her usefulness. With the male lead turning a blind eye, the white-lotus love of his life was supposed to plot to drown her. But Duan Hui transmigrated in and saved her life.

Duan Hui, former imperial physician: Good grief, what a deadly opening!

After climbing out of the pond, Duan Hui sat on the bank catching her breath and thought carefully about the original story.

The ill-fated princess consort shared her name, came from a noble family, and was stunningly beautiful, peerless in the world. Unfortunately, she was love-brained.

She used every means at her disposal to marry the male lead and become his princess consort. She finally got her wish and married into the prince's manor, only to be neglected in a remote courtyard and ignored by everyone.

After she had outlived her last bit of usefulness, the male lead discarded her like trash. When the white lotus pushed her into the lake, she still fantasized that the male lead would suddenly appear and save her.

As expected, being love-brained is a bad influence!

Without her love-brain, and with the advantage of knowing how the story goes, Duan Hui lives comfortably. Her purse grows fatter, her face prettier, and visitors come one after another. After she ignores the male lead, Fang Su, on several occasions, he puts her under house arrest.

Duan Hui: ???

Have you no humanity?

I haven't interfered with you and your white lotus being all lovey-dovey. What gives you the right to confine me?

Fang Su: Because someone wants you and me to divorce.

Duan Hui: You don't want a divorce? Then give me a letter of repudiation. I don't mind!

Fang Su: Take a rest. For the rest of your life, you'll belong to me.

Wang Sui (Double Rebirth), by Xianren Ersan

Blurb:

Three years after her younger brother ascended the throne, Jiang Wansui, the Grand Princess of Daye, was bestowed in marriage to Jing Shi, the powerful eunuch who ruled Daye in all but name.

People gossiped that the Grand Princess, who had always enjoyed imperial favor, had married down to him. For a eunuch to achieve that much, even a lifetime without children would be worth it.

On their wedding night, Jiang Wansui and Jing Shi perished together in a sea of flames.

As he lay dying, Jing Shi could finally call her "Su sui" once more. Jiang Wansui touched his cold face and murmured, "Brother A Wang."

The dead should be gone like a lamp being snuffed out, yet Jiang Wansui returned, reborn at thirteen with regrets she had never been able to voice.

It was a beautiful spring. She was still Daye's most beloved Anping Princess, and Jing Shi was not yet the powerful eunuch he would become.

The young man was radiant and handsome, gentle and dignified. As he rode beneath the tavern on his fine horse, Jiang Wansui stared, entranced.

She suddenly remembered that, even when they died, the two of them had never managed to make their love come true.

Like a fluttering butterfly settling securely in Jing Shi's arms, Jiang Wansui wrapped her arms around the young man's neck and smiled sweetly. "Brother A Wang, could you take me home?"

Warmth filled the young man's eyes, and the arm around her waist was burning hot. "I would be honored, Sui sui."

Time passed and the world changed, but at last, Sui sui and her Brother A Wang were together again.

Theme: Even when mired in the mud, never forget your original intentions.
