The Offered Beauty

[A lofty beauty brought down to earth, a general's daily face-slapping, marriage first and love later] (Plenty of chapters already written, dive in without worry~) Both leads are inexperienced~

[Blurb]

The dragon-and-phoenix wedding candles burned bright. Through a layer of gold-embroidered gauze, Wei Ci heard a man's cool, magnetic voice.

"I never intended to marry you, but the emperor decreed this marriage. Once the three-year term is over, you may leave of your own accord."

On their wedding night, Wei Ci had been married off from the capital to Xizhou, and was left alone in her room without even seeing her husband's face.

She didn't mind.

In her previous life, she insisted on defying the imperial decree to keep her original engagement, but Fu Heng didn't want her at all. His heart belonged to someone else. She waited for nearly half her life, only to die with regrets.

This time, she chose a different path.

Fu Heng wanted to send her far away to Xizhou, so she really did go and marry there.

It wasn't because she was obedient or willing to work as Fu Heng's spy.

Wei Ci knew that in a few years, Xizhou's undefeated Marquis Xie Nanzhou would be the true ruler of the land.

If she couldn't have genuine love, at least she could protect her own life.

In the height of summer, lotus leaves stretched as far as the eye could see. As Wei Ci passed the lotus pond, a man emerged from the water, bare-chested. His features were striking, but he was so cold and distant that he looked like a statue trapped in ancient ice.

The man spoke sharply. "You're quite the schemer. You really went to great lengths to get close to me, didn't you?"

Wei Ci: "..." ??? She'd only come by to enjoy the cool air.

Though the Marquis's wife is neglected by the victorious Marquis, she's popular thanks to her delicious food.

Noble young men often come calling to ask: When will the Marquis's wife get a divorce?

In response, Xie Nanzhou orders over a thousand guards to stand outside the residence: unmarried men are not allowed in!

With the three-year term nearly over and Xie Nanzhou in control of half the realm, Wei Ci thinks she can pack up and go enjoy a carefree life.

But the cold, ruthless god of war cuts off every path of escape.

"You want to leave? I'm about to conquer the whole realm. Where could you possibly go?"

Wei Ci: "..."

Much later, even the new emperor, who abstains from women and desires, falls prey to the old saying: From now on, the emperor will no longer attend court at dawn.

New serial: Please Enter My Bedchamber

[One-line summary]: I flirted halfway through, then realized I had the wrong person. I mistook the wrong man for my savior and thanked the wrong person!

[Warning]: Coercive romance!

Ye Tang is reborn and recognizes her savior.

She's beautiful, soft and delicate, with a slender waist and graceful figure. When she smiles, she's like a begonia basking in the sun. In her previous life, she attracted countless terrible suitors.

In this life, she sets her sights on her previous life's savior, Wei Ziyan.

She knows that in a few years, this heir of the Earl of Yongning's household will lead a campaign to purge corrupt officials and become a powerful regent who brooks no opposition.

Wei Ziyan is as graceful as the breeze through pines and the moon reflected on water, a refined gentleman, as elegant as an orchid or a jade tree, a true lofty beauty.

But lately, everyone in the household is worried because the cousin who just came to ask for shelter keeps finding excuses to cozy up to the young master every few days.

The cousin is elegant and voluptuous, a captivating enchantress in every frown and smile.

Wei Ziyan was initially quite annoyed by Ye Tang.

But before long, she was all he could think about, even in his dreams.

Until one day, a tipsy Ye Tang smiled at him and said coyly, "Cousin, I'm really sorry about all this. I mistook you for someone else. The man I want to marry is somebody else."

In the hazy night, Wei Ziyan's narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes gleam with a sly smile, filled with possessiveness. He presses closer, step by step. "Oh... you say you mistook me for someone else, and now you think you can just leave? Ye Tang, you're far too naive..."

Ye Tang isn't a weak person. She dares to pursue what she wants and shares a mutual love with the savior from her previous life.

Soon, Ye Tang becomes the envy of every woman in the capital once more.

Because the man she marries is none other than the young general of the dynasty, Huo Yanli.

On the eve of their wedding, a coup breaks out in the capital. The entire Huo family is condemned, Huo Yanli is forced to retreat beyond the border, and the young General's wife disappears.

Wei Ziyan has risen to the pinnacle of power and is no longer the lofty beauty he once was. He is determined to claim the person he wants. When he sees Ye Tang wake, he leans over her and sneers. "Look carefully at the man in front of you. I, Wei Ziyan, am your man!"
