The Emperor Went Mad After She Died (Reborn)

Lin Lin transmigrated into a book. “Lin Lin, welcome to the Great Tang Empire. Your main quest is to win the favor of the empire’s future ruler, the current Crown Prince, Xiao Fusu, while protecting the life of Xiao Keyu, a disgraced illegitimate prince languishing in the Cold Palace.” When she woke, the System’s eerily cheery voice assigned her the quest. “This... is going to be hard. I vaguely remember these brothers becoming sworn enemies later on.” She wiped away her sweat. Trying to keep both sides happy seemed like an impossible task. “Don’t worry. They’re both still handsome young men, and it’s too soon to know whether you can turn the tide and change their fates. If you work on building a bond with them, there’s a very good chance you’ll succeed.” The System said breezily, assuring her all she had to do was perform as usual. But before she could even manage that, the blushing, embarrassed Crown Prince had thrown her into the Cold Palace. And all she’d done was casually call him Fusu. “System, what do I do now?” “Host, don’t panic. Everything is within my expectations. See that poor little thing crying up ahead? He’s your new target. Win him over and help him escape the Cold Palace, but remember, you must not make him think of rebelling, and you must not offend the future emperor, Xiao Fusu!” At the time, she had nodded, still a little dazed. But later, she smashed the System to pieces. All for Xiao Keyu. Because she thought that if even she abandoned him, then he would truly have nothing left. But it had all been a lie. He was a complete and utter liar. The ridiculous thing was that after using her, he still took her hand and gazed at her with deep affection as he demanded that she become his empress. Furious with him, she deliberately brought up the past to provoke him, asking if he had no fear of retribution after all the evil he had done. He only clutched her tighter and roared, “I fear neither Heaven nor Earth! The empire and its beauty belong to me by right!” The storm and pain of that night shattered the last of her illusions about him, along with whatever affection she had left. She had wronged Xiao Fusu. She tried to escape, and fought back. She never expected to struggle herself to death. When she opened her eyes again, she was a newly selected palace maiden who had been rescued from drowning. After all their twists and turns, she had ended up back at his side. Xiao Keyu: Lin Lin is a woman who cannot lie. Unlike him, who is a master of deception. In the end, Xiao Keyu finally understood that King You of Zhou, who lost his kingdom for Baosi, had done so willingly. The male lead is a sweet-faced schemer; the female lead is gentle and kind.

Currently serializing: “The Tyrant Takes His Sister-in-Law” [Dark Version of the New Blurb] Blurb One: Mu Jun had always resented Mu Zhan for threatening to take her by using a child’s life as leverage. She thought losing his memory might give them a chance to put the past behind them. It wasn’t until he beat her son to death with his own hands that she finally came to her senses. He even claimed it had been an accident, that he had killed the boy by mistake. She couldn’t help laughing. Her laughter was bleak, deranged, and despairing. “I’ll tell you this: when I abandoned your son, that little bastard, I was happier than I can say. But don’t blame me. Just as you said, I only killed her by accident back then. It’s not my fault he was so weak. Being born was a disgrace, and he never deserved to live in this world!” “I told you to stop talking!” The child was his limit. Enraged beyond control, he struck her for the first time. Perhaps once he started, there would be no stopping him. Like a madman, he lashed her body with a whip. “If you won’t love me, then I’ll hate you!” If he couldn’t have her, he would destroy her. That was how freely love turned to hatred. At the time, she thought she might as well let him beat her to death. Then she could reunite with her son and escape his coercion and humiliation. “You’d better kill me this time. Otherwise, you’ll regret it.” Those words alone brought him to a halt, pulling him out of his frenzy. When she truly wanted to die, he couldn’t bear to let her go. She tried to kill him for revenge, but in the end, she failed. After she attempted suicide again and again, he finally allowed her to become a nun. “Do you really think you’re so beautiful that the whole world would fall for you, and I can’t live without you?” “Get out! Leave! If you don’t love me, I don’t want your charity. Do you really think I can’t live without you? If you want to leave, then go. I won’t try to stop you again. I never want to see you again!” He roared in exasperation. Watching his lonely, dejected figure recede, she thought they would never cross paths again. But he regretted letting her go. Then, one night, she awoke from a dream to find Mu Zhan hauntingly at her bedside, gazing at her with burning intensity as his hand gently caressed her cheek. Mu Jun couldn’t help crying out. The nights were so unbearably lonely. Without love, how could there be hate? It turned out he had never stopped loving her for a single moment. No more holding back. Let the angst hit harder! Old-school, melodramatic, bittersweet angst, a love torn apart by hatred. A story about an uncle and his sister-in-law, with forced love. A domineering, hypermasculine male lead forces himself on the heroine, who is compelled to submit. A lovesick, scum tyrant kindly “takes in by force” his amnesiac sister-in-law, the woman he has always loved. A possessive, obsessive tyrant X a gentle, kind, peerlessly beautiful woman. This story is set in an alternate Northern Qi. The heroine is based on Li Zu'e. The previous two books are numbered 4064087 and 4377831. You can find them in my author profile. Reading them all will make the experience flow more smoothly, but you can still follow this story just fine without them. Blurb Two: She was a noblewoman from a prestigious family and an empress, yet her elder brother-in-law forced her into marriage, her younger brother-in-law kept her as his own, and all kinds of men coveted and harassed her. They used force, threats, and enticements, entangling her in love and hatred and a torturous romance, all because she was too beautiful and kind, leaving her burdened with a lifetime of romantic debts. Xiao Ziyou: Mu Jun, what do you say we stay together for life, just the two of us? Mu Jun, you owe me so much. How will you make up for all those years of pining for you? Mu Cheng: We were betrothed first. Why should Xiao Ziyou get to cut in line and take my wife? Just because he’s the emperor, does that mean he can take the woman I love? Mu Jun, now I’m an emperor too. You like emperors, don’t you? So why don’t you love me? I want you to love me. You were meant to be my wife. Mu Zhan: Sister-in-law, you can’t treat me like this. You accept my help when you need me, then kick me aside like a worn-out shoe once you’ve gotten what you want. You use me to cross the river, then abandon me. Am I some kind of monster? Why are you so afraid of me now? I don’t want to be your ninth brother-in-law. I want to be your husband. I want to spend day and night with you, have children with you, share a bed in life and a grave in death. There, there. Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you. Come into my arms. I’m an emperor now too, and I can protect you. Yes, I killed your son! After you lost your memory, you spent your nights tangled up with me. Do you regret it now? Ha! You’re in pain? Your pain is nothing compared to even a fraction of mine. What right do you have to blame me? You killed our child too! I murdered my brother, seized the throne, and took my sister-in-law for myself. I did it all for you. Mu Jun, don’t even think you can escape me. Can this peerlessly beautiful woman, caught in the bloody slaughter of imperial power, find a peaceful end and redemption? The heroine, Li Mujun: Being an empress of unrivaled beauty is exhausting. I don’t want this. In a sentence: The Prince of Xiang loves her, but the goddess has no feelings for him. A brooding, mad dog, growing crazier the more he loves. Being an empress of unrivaled beauty is exhausting. I don’t want this. (The heroine is adored by everyone and has been the male lead’s beloved since birth. She uses love to soften a man with a screw loose.) Coming next: “The False Phoenix” Blurb: People say a perfect match is a talented man and a beautiful woman. Wang Wan is the most beautiful woman in the Great Xia Empire, with looks that could topple kingdoms, yet she cannot win the heart of Xie Yu, the most celebrated scholar in the land. She was dismayed and couldn’t understand what had gone wrong, so she went to ask Princess Yang Wu for advice. “Sister Awu, I’m so pretty. Why doesn’t Brother Yu like me? Could it be that he doesn’t like beautiful women, and only likes pretty boys?” Otherwise, why would he rather go on a spring outing with those refined young noblemen than fly a kite with her for a while? “The way of Heaven takes from what is in excess to make up for what is lacking. Beautiful women tend to be a little dim-witted, and you, Wanwan, are a perfect example. The more depth a man has, the less he likes women who are only beautiful on the outside. A little white flower like you has no appeal to Xie Yu.” Princess Yang Wu merely looked at her with disdain. “Then what should I do?” Wang Wan knew she wasn’t clever, but she was eager to improve! She could learn! So she hurriedly asked again, “Sister Awu, you’re so clever. Could you teach me how to become a woman with depth?” Seeing how fixated she was on Xie Yu, Yang Wu’s expression darkened a little. But after a moment’s silence, she finally answered. “...All right.” Later, Wanwan came running back in tears and wiped them away in front of him, her voice full of grievance. “Waaah... Brother Yu said he doesn’t like women who flirt and show off! He hates me even more now!” She cried at the top of her lungs, and Yang Wu’s tense heart finally relaxed. He stepped forward, patted her little head, and drew her into his arms to comfort her. “There, there, Wanwan. That blockhead Xie Yu can’t appreciate your beauty and cuteness. He has no taste! Let’s stop liking him, sweetheart. You’re going to marry me, so you can’t go falling for another man.” Wang Wan’s heart jolted at his words, and she suddenly understood. She looked down at the flat chest in front of her, then stared at him in shock. “Sister Awu, you’re a man!” No wonder he’d never had a chest! He was tall, but slow to develop... She had always assumed Yang Wu was simply exceptionally well endowed, never realizing he was actually a man! Yang Wu could only stare at her, speechless. “...We’re together every waking moment. I thought you would have figured it out by now.” The crown prince, Yang Mu, who plays two roles in his daily life (Yang Wu, a haughty, sharp-tongued, beautiful woman with a cold demeanor) X Wang Wan, the pure-hearted beauty who is the loveliest woman among the noble clans. Crown Prince Yang Mu has something to say: When I had no choice but to dress as a woman, that lovely girl, beautiful inside and out, stole my heart. Others may think she’s a silly girl, but to me, she’s a woman of great wisdom, the purest and kindest beauty in the world. Well... even though our personalities were poles apart, we became “best sisters” and later a loving couple... Currently serializing and coming soon. Please add them to your favorites. Theme: Women should have a limit to their kindness and a backbone to their beauty.
