The Emperor Covets His Minister's Wife Every Day

Given another chance at life, Lu Tiantian never wants to enter the palace and become a favored consort again. Even with all the emperor's affection, she could not escape the fate of leaping from Phoenix Plume Terrace. All she wants is to live her own life, make a few little inventions to earn money, and protect the Lu family.

But Lu Tiantian overlooked the young emperor.

Back then, he spent half the national treasury building Phoenix Plume Terrace for her, all because she once said she wished she could stand at the highest point every day and gaze upon the splendor of the world.

He was clearly a wise young ruler, yet he had no principles when it came to her. He cherished her with all his heart and treated her as the one thing he would never allow anyone to threaten.

Through countless days and nights, he held her close, kissing and doting on her. He could not stand the palace eunuchs looking at her for even a moment too long. And when she died, he went mad, abandoning his people, his country, and his great ambitions to follow her into death.

Reborn at sixteen, she stays out of the palace and even gains a fiance. The emperor is consumed by jealousy of his minister, darkly coveting the man's wife.

The young emperor corners her against the wall, gripping her hand tightly and refusing to let go. "Then so what if I become a foolish emperor who steals his minister's wife?"

Reader's Guide: 1. This is a classic Mary Sue story, with lots of sugar and sweetness.

2. This is not realistic fiction. The heroine is only here to look beautiful. Every man and woman in the story, and even the plot itself, exists to highlight her beauty.

3. This is the author's flight-of-fancy project. Thank you for reading!

Theme: No matter how precious a relationship is, it cannot last without equal standing.
