The Crown Princess Thought She Was Playing a Cannon Fodder

He Baoyan, the only daughter of the Marquis of Loyalty and Valor, grew up doted on and pampered. She was the apple of the entire household's eye, their precious darling. Baoyan was beautiful, but also spoiled and willful. And with the Marquis's household being so domineering, ordinary families wouldn't dare seek a match with them. By the time Baoyan was seventeen, she was still unmarried.

One day, He Baoyan dreamed she had become the Crown Princess. But His Highness the Crown Prince had married her only because he wanted her family's military power. The person he truly cherished was Consort Su. Baoyan was treated coldly at the Crown Prince's residence, and after he ascended the throne, he made Consort Su empress and had the entire He family executed...

This was terrible! He Baoyan ran to the Marquis and his wife in tears and told them what had happened in her dream. The couple exchanged a smile. "Silly child, dreams aren't real. How could you possibly become Crown Princess?" They knew their own daughter best: Baoyan simply wasn't suited to be Crown Princess.

Just then, an imperial edict announcing her marriage arrived.

The Marquis and his wife: ...

When He Baoyan saw the eunuch delivering the edict, he looked exactly like the one in her dream. "Waaah..."

Unable to refuse the marriage, He Baoyan nervously entered the Eastern Palace, keeping her head down and trying to stay out of trouble. She even planned to secretly get rid of the Crown Prince... But gradually, she realized he didn't seem like the one in her dream. He indulged her in everything and doted on her beyond measure?

What He Baoyan didn't know was that the Crown Prince now was not the one from her dream. This Crown Prince would cherish her above his own life and give up his throne for her.

Upcoming Story

"Starting Today, I'll Be the Demon Consort"

With no empress in the harem, Shen Yuan entered the palace and became a Noble Consort. She was showered with favor, and everyone knew the palace had a demon consort who bewitched the emperor and squandered the people's wealth.

Only as she lay dying did Shen Yuan learn that she had been nothing but a pawn for Xiao Zhi, a target he'd set up for others to attack.

Reborn, Shen Yuan decided to become a real demon consort.

She secured favors for her parents and every one of her siblings. She also wanted gardens built and high terraces raised... Her reputation became even worse than it had been in her previous life, so bad that even Emperor Xiao Zhi wanted her to show some restraint.

Shen Yuan had no idea what restraint meant. All she knew was that if Xiao Zhi could still attend morning court on time, then she, his demon consort, wasn't doing her job.

Until one day, Shen Yuan clung to Xiao Zhi's shoulder, acting weak and speaking in a sweet voice. "Your Majesty, you dote on A Yuan, so let me visit my family."

Bewitched by Shen Yuan, Xiao Zhi lost his wits and agreed without thinking.

Not long afterward, the demon consort was ambushed by rioters on her way to visit her family. Her body was never found.

Xiao Zhi went mad. He thought of Shen Yuan day and night and never set foot in the harem again.

Five years later, the emperor made a tour of the south. In an alley in Jiangnan, he saw a couple holding hands with a little boy. The boy looked just like him, and the woman's face was identical to his A Yuan's.
