Bewitching Black Lotus X Scheming Monarch Who Loves the Heroine

[Blurb One]

Everyone says Jiang Xuanying is breathtakingly beautiful, with alluring eyes that make your bones melt. Born lucky, she is the envy of all.

But Xuanying, who lived to become the Emperor's Dowager Consort, spent half her life unloved, stripped of her dignity, disfigured, and left to die in the Cold Palace.

Reborn on the day she was sent away for a political marriage, Xuanying decides that having played the virtuous woman all her life was deeply unsatisfying. This time, she'll find a powerful protector, use her alluring charms to get what she wants, and make becoming the official wife her goal. She won't settle for anything less than what's rightfully hers!

In the hot spring, ripples shimmer across the water as she smiles seductively at Tan Que, holding out their nuptial wine.

Jiang Xuanying: "Once you drink this nuptial wine, Your Majesty, you'll belong to me."

What she doesn't know is that Tan Que saw through all her schemes and flirtatious charms from the very beginning.

From start to finish, she has been Tan Que's treasured beauty, his moon in the palm of his hand.

[Blurb Two]

Tan Que has a secret.

He watched her shine, stood by her through endless humiliation, and remained at her side until she grew old and died in the palace.

Tan Que raises his greatsword: If no one in this world can protect her, then I will!

But the person he keeps in his heart has secretly blossomed, casting flirtatious glances in every direction, her charm boundless.

Before, his greatsword conquered the lands and brought the realm to heel.

Now, all he can do is sharpen his blade and fend off her admirers.

Tan Que: I can wield a greatsword, and I can hold her slender waist!

[Yan Zhixu]

The eldest daughter-in-law of the richest family in the Yin Dynasty is beautiful and tall, as delicate as a flower, but has a nasty temper. Everyone avoids her, except Yan Zhixu, the youngest daughter of the fourth branch.

Zhixu adores the eldest brother in her family. Out of love for him, she sticks close to her new sister-in-law, only to discover that her temper is awful and she can't even take care of herself. She doesn't even know how to get dressed.

Thinking her sister-in-law must be some poor soul her eldest brother picked up from a mountain village, Zhixu makes it her mission to protect her dignity.

Sister-in-law wants new clothes and the whole shop? I've got money!

Sister-in-law wants a whole-sheep feast and a sheep pen? I've got money!

Sister-in-law is lonely in bed? Here's my lap, I'll comfort you!

Until her sister-in-law carries her out of a blazing fire, and Zhixu feels her firm chest with both hands...

...A man?!!

[Pei Jinzhou]

Pei Jinzhou is the most unruly emperor in the Yin Dynasty. He carves words into the imperial throne, draws turtles on his ministers' backs, and runs away from mountains of memorials he can't finish.

He hides at the Yan residence and thinks: Merchants really are low-class, and there's a little pest clinging to me like a bandage.

Annoying!

Later, Pei Jinzhou, dressed in imperial robes, kicks over a bridal sedan and carries out his little pest.

Pei Jinzhou: An elder brother is like a father, and an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. I will not approve this marriage!

*****Blurb for Hidden Beauty*****

[Scheming, Gentle Beauty X Peerless, Romantic Gentleman]

In a nutshell: After a general amnesty was declared, I eloped with my imperial uncle.

Tang Suisui is a royal disgrace, a fake princess.

But with her enchanting eyes and peerless beauty, she becomes the pet songbird of her tyrant "Imperial Brother," kept in his arms when obedient and locked in the dungeon when rebellious.

Unwilling to submit to her "Imperial Brother's" forced advances, Suisui grabs hold of Tang Fei, his eyes blurred with drink, in the gloomy dungeon.

Suisui: "Imperial Uncle, can you take me away?"

Tang Fei: "If I take you away, what will you do?"

Suisui bites her lip, her voice trembling: "I... I can play the flute..."

Tang Fei stares at her slightly parted, luscious lips, then wipes away the nosebleed that spurts out.

**

Later, people often say that Tang Fei is always accompanied by dreadful flute playing, with strange notes and an awful tune.

But Tang Fei holds a cup of fine wine, his eyes full of romantic charm, and half-covers one ear as he flicks the little beauty on the nose.

Tang Fei: "Good girl, play me another song for your sweetheart."

Everyone knows Tang Fei loves romance and beauty, and Suisui is the gentle breeze in his life.
