Reborn as the Tyrant's Beloved

Please add my new novel, The Daily Regrets of the Untouchable Flower, to your reading list!

Su Qingqing, born into a family of imperial physicians, was imprisoned in the Yeting Palace after becoming entangled in a treason case. She refused to be controlled.

Chief eunuch Nie Chuhuai pulled her, barely alive, from a pond.

He treated her wounds, got her out of the Yeting Palace, arranged for her to join the Bu Liang Ren, and taught her martial arts.

When she missed her family late at night, he held her and comforted her tenderly.

On the day she officially joined the Bu Liang Ren, Nie Chuhuai broke with Su Qingqing, claiming that the Inner Court and the Bu Liang Ren must not associate too closely.

Heartbroken, Su Qingqing became a coroner among the Bu Liang Ren.

From then on, she spent her days dealing with corpses.

She also had to catch thieves, interrogate suspects, and outwit criminals.

Her colleagues complained bitterly and groaned about how hard it was, but Su Qingqing never grumbled.

Everyone said Su Qingqing was made of iron and never tired. Only she knew that she had to exhaust herself into unconsciousness each day just to forget his tender embrace.

But no one knew that Nie Chuhuai visited her dreams every night, holding her close with tenderness.

*

Nie Chuhuai, the chief eunuch serving the Crown Prince, was compassionate, devoted to his daily prayers, and free of worldly desires.

He never imagined that a woman could leave him sleepless night after night, when he had no manhood to speak of.

At first, she had only suffered a nightmare and cried in her sleep.

As a child, Nie Chuhuai had watched his parents die before his eyes. He understood her grief and held her gently as he comforted her.

Who could have known that later she would boldly kiss him?

She was young, sweet, and innocent, while he was merely a eunuch. How could he dare ruin her youth?

But after they broke things off, she truly acted as if he didn't exist.

He couldn't forget her or let her go. Night after night, he longed for her and dreamed of her.

Nie Chuhuai could only act selfishly for once and try to win her over again, but it seemed she had already fallen for someone else.

After the Crown Prince ascended the throne, Nie Chuhuai took charge of the Bu Liang Ren.

Everyone believed that Nie Chuhuai was still the same compassionate, desireless man.

Only Heaven, Earth, and Nie Chuhuai himself knew that he had fallen into madness: How dare she enter his heart, then cruelly forget him?

Novel blurb:

The ill-fated Princess Ran Qingqing of Chu was reborn, only to find that she was still useless.

She knew nothing of schemes and had no idea how to pretend.

In her previous life, her father died tragically on the road to the summit of the Nine Kingdoms, and not even his body could be found.

Her husband, Xiu Lingyun, conspired with her aunt and cousin. On their wedding night, he confined her until she froze to death in an abandoned palace.

At last reborn, Ran Qingqing had no choice but to carefully plan for herself.

Qi was the most powerful of the nine kingdoms. Its ruler, Yin Huanong, was renowned throughout the land. He had fought across the Nine Kingdoms and never lost a battle.

They said he had seized the throne by murdering his father and elder brother.

They said he killed without blinking and devoured his victims without leaving a trace. Even children throwing tantrums stopped crying at the sound of his name.

They said he had no interest in women...

Her aunt had taught her from childhood that a woman's virtue lay in being gentle and composed.

Since ancient times, beautiful women had all been reviled by the world.

Her aunt's words couldn't be trusted!

Her face was her advantage.

She should use her beauty to change the tragic fate she had suffered in her previous life.

Ran Qingqing made a daring decision: she would marry Yin Huanong.

She would rather be reviled as a ruinous temptress than suffer another life of being bullied to death.

Before long, Qi sent a formal letter proposing an alliance through marriage with Chu and offering three cities as the bride price, requesting Princess Ran Qingqing's hand in marriage as their queen.

Theme: Happiness is something you have to pursue.
