Ongoing novel: Spoiling the Beauty. Please add it to your reading list. The blurb is at the end.
Zhen Yun was only thirteen or fourteen, yet had already blossomed into a bewitching beauty. Every marriageable man on Changning Street wanted to take her as a concubine and enjoy her night and day.
But because her gambling-addicted foster father sold her, this beauty was sent to the Huai Xiang Pavilion on the street. As soon as the news got out, the sons of the noble families arrived with silver in hand, determined to claim her first night.
That night, the red curtains were surrounded by noise and commotion. She never got a clear look at the man's face. When she woke, all that remained, apart from the soreness in her body, was a thousand taels in silver notes by her pillow.
With her body defiled, she felt as if she had fallen into a muddy pit.
Just as everyone waited to laugh at her, she was carried off to the capital in a small sedan chair.
A lost pearl had returned to its case. She became the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's household, with a marriage contract attached to her name. That night, she knelt and begged the duke, "Father, please help Yun'er break off the engagement."
She had heard that her betrothed was eccentric, spoiled, and overbearing. Yet, to her surprise, he agreed to break off the engagement and even said that a concubine-born daughter of the duke's household could marry in Zhen Yun's place.
But when he happened to pass by her, he murmured, "The jade flower at Big Sister's waist is quite lovely."
- Both leads are sexually inexperienced; happy ending. The heroine isn't as fragile as the blurb makes her sound.
- Older sister and younger brother. A beautiful, sweet-faced schemer x a spoiled young master with the heart of a wolf.
- The male lead is a jerk at first, then goes through hell trying to win her back.
[Blurb]
Ten years ago
Zhu Yuntan was still a young prince of the Ye Dynasty. While accompanying the emperor south to Shunan, he accidentally fell overboard and encountered a young girl.
"It's so cold. Why are you swimming here?" She clung to the railing, her clear eyes gazing at him as she asked.
Zhu Yuntan, lips purple and body trembling: "..."
After much effort explaining, he finally convinced the girl that he'd fallen into the water. But she couldn't swim, so she could only call for someone to pull him out.
Ignoring his cold, wet clothes, he stopped the person about to leave. "Take this as a token. When you grow up, I'll marry you."
Ten years later
Shao Zhilan, the daughter of a mere fourth-rank prefect, received an imperial edict one day, granting her in marriage to Prince Jian as his principal wife. That very night, she was carried away from Shunan City in an eight-man sedan chair.
She had heard that Prince Jian despised women and didn't even keep a maidservant in his rooms. Shao Zhilan only hoped to stay alive.
Until one day, Shao Zhilan was sitting by a lotus pond, feeding the fish, when she was suddenly lifted into the air.
"Since Your Highness cannot swim, seeing you sit here makes me very uneasy."
Shao Zhilan: ??? How does he know I can't swim?
[Mutual secret crushes]
[One-on-one romance, both leads are sexually inexperienced]
Theme: A lesson in love
What's disgusting is the queen and the queen's people. The male and female protagonists are pretty good. The two-way secret love is very sweet.
This plot is disgusting, with one female lead and a second female lead. Not talking about anything else, just talking about the rules, how late at night can an imperial merchant named Lu be in the inner palace?? Resolutely give up the literature and protect your IQ.
The heroine has no means, no family background, no one treats her well, and no contestant. . . Even the maids in the male protagonist's house can bully her without the male protagonist noticing. The male protagonist's servants also bully her. In this novel, anyone can bully the female protagonist. . .
The finale also includes the stinking scene of the female protagonist climbing into the male protagonist's bed. The heroine has been wronged from the first chapter to the ending, which is extremely frustrating to watch. The writing is rushed and the plot is confusing. . .
Why haven't you expressed your feelings yet? You look anxious.
Thank you very much. Free of charge (^ν^)
. . . . . Why do I feel like I can't understand??? The upper part is not the same as the lower part
???? He couldn't protect her during his lifetime, and after his death, he found a substitute to give birth to the child???? It's so disgusting, it doesn't matter how many children the prince has with other people, but having children with a woman like Liao Yuanling is disgusting. Forget about her health, after all, it was the prince who needed to have children, and he couldn't even leave his love completely to her. It's so funny, don't you still feel that you are particularly affectionate?
It's a pity that Liang Di is dead. That's what the prince is like. Finding a Lin Cainv is disgusting. Fortunately, Liang Di is free.
Liang Di is actually dead. Damn, I quite like it. I thought it was a supporting role. She was offline so soon. Ahhh.
