After Becoming the Crown Prince’s Favorite Concubine

[Blurb for the upcoming novel A Beautiful Concubine on the Side at the end]

A beautiful, delicate concubine x a man who says one thing but does another

Susu was born into a lowly family. Her beautiful face made her a target, and she was handed over to a slave trader, nearly sold to a brothel.

By a stroke of luck, just before she fell into the life of a courtesan, she met a respectable buyer. He was tall and striking, with a face as handsome as jade, and an air of elegance in every gesture. She thought being a servant would be better than being a prostitute, and she’d even get a monthly wage.

But on the night she went back with him, things became increasingly strange. The hazy moonlight lent the scene a romantic air, and the man’s gaze fell upon her. Susu’s lovely face flushed, and she was too startled to speak.

Before the gauze curtains began to sway, he asked with an enigmatic smile, “Have you been betrothed? Is there someone you love?”

The young girl cried and said no.

Since there wasn’t, he took her hand.

She didn’t yet know that those hands could command the world and keep her safe and carefree for the rest of her life.

A beautiful, delicate concubine x a man who says one thing but does another

This novel was inspired by another of the author’s works, The Eastern Palace’s Concubine.

Notes:

Important: The heroine is gentle and not strong-willed. There won’t be any fights or confrontations with other women, so please keep that in mind!

1. Both leads are faithful to each other. The heroine is partially reborn. The setting is entirely fictional, so please don’t nitpick the history.

2. The story focuses on the romance, and the male lead will come to love the heroine deeply.

3. The heroine has a bit of a golden finger, and she’s still an incomparable beauty and a sweet, gentle girl, the kind who’s especially alluring. Please don’t read if that’s not your thing.

4. There’s basically no angst in this life, and the man falls first.

5. If I can’t update, I’ll leave a note in the comments. Updates are generally daily, around midnight.

Upcoming novel: A Beautiful Concubine on the Side

Blurb:

An innocent minor official of the eighth rank is caught up in a conspiracy and implicated through no fault of his own.

Her father is thrown into prison, her once-friendly relatives turn their backs on her, and she has a frail mother and a young brother to look after. The promising marriage she had arranged is also called off. With nowhere else to turn, Wanyan finally seeks help from the new chief prosecutor handling the case, Pei Shao, heir to the Duke of Jingguo and Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.

The young woman has skin as pale as snow and beauty like a flower. She kneels on the ground, weeping like a pear blossom in the rain.

The room falls utterly silent. After a long while, Pei Shao leisurely turns the ring on his finger and finally speaks, unhurriedly.

“The evidence is conclusive. The case is closed, and there’s no changing that, unless...”

As he speaks, his eyes drift toward the beauty on the ground, and the corner of his mouth moves almost imperceptibly...
