So Many Beauties in Great Jin

Previously titled Swapping Daughters to Make a Phoenix They were switched at birth by their mothers. The crown prince became the son of a great clan, while the noblewoman became a princess, and their lives took a complete turn. Wang Yue was the prized son of the Langya Wang clan, the sort of child everyone else’s parents wished they had. Talented in both letters and martial arts, he was flawless in every way. Whenever he went out, groups of young women gathered to watch, crying, “Marry me!” and “I want to have your son!” He was practically the top celebrity of the Jin Dynasty. Women blocked the streets from one end to the other, their obsession rivaling that of the crazed sasaeng fans of later generations. Qinghe was a princess: spoiled, free-spirited, and skilled in political intrigue, the bad girl everyone else’s parents warned them about. One rumored consort after another was linked to her, and whoever was named always came to a bad end. She was practically “cursed.” Her mother was the famous “paper empress,” deposed five times, so Qinghe’s own marriage prospects were one disaster after another. No one dared marry her. Noble families in the capital would lecture their daughters, saying, “Whatever you do, don’t be like Princess Qinghe.” She was a living cautionary tale. Little did anyone know that Qinghe had secretly warned Wang Yue several times, “Stop sabotaging my potential consorts. Keep it up and I really will become a princess no one will marry. Then I’ll spread the rumor that you’re under my skirts and cling to you until you become my consort.” Wang Yue brewed tea in a bamboo grove, looking like an immortal banished to the mortal world. He raised an eyebrow. “Please, spread it sooner. What do you think is the reason I’m still unmarried?” Qinghe was stunned. “You’ve fallen in love with my mother too?” Wang Yue shot to his feet and flipped the table. Princess, oh princess, little do you know that your mother is actually my mother too.
