By Imperial Decree, My Archrival and I Must Get Together

New Novel, Currently Updating: The Male Lead and the Villain Are a Couple [Blurb] There is love at first sight in this world, and there is also love that blossoms in a single day. In the fifteenth year of Yong'an, young marquis Hao Chun got into a street brawl with that damned new top scholar, and the pair ended up arguing their case before the emperor. Instead, they were ordered to marry each other??? Hao Chun found fault with everything about his so-called "Marquis's Wife." He was itching to beat him up! Chen Jingming: Heh! Bring it on! The two fought their way from Chang'an to the Western Regions, and finally... broke the bed rails! Damn it, wasn't he supposed to be the "husband"? From beneath the red bridal curtains came Hao Chun's furious cry: "Chen, Jing, Ming! I'm going to skin you alive!" * Another year passed. Young Marquis Hao Chun was ambushed at Hangu Pass. His red-tasseled spear no longer shone, and blood poured from an arrow wound in his shoulder. At the brink of despair, iron chains suddenly hooked onto a burning supply cart, which charged into the valley. Herds of wild oxen, their eyes blood-red, scattered the barbarian army. Chen Jingming stumbled down from the ox cart, grabbed Hao Chun, and shielded him with his own body. Flames blazed all around them, and the footsteps of the rout filled the air. Chen Jingming's voice was so hoarse it sounded as though he were about to cry. "Marquis, I don't want to 'wait for next spring'! What I want is... spring every year, day and night, with music and wine!" Please note: △ One-on-one, happy ending, both leads are each other's first. A genuinely sweet story. △ A groveling-after-the-breakup arc, with melodrama. The characters' values do not represent the author's. △ An alternate world. The court politics follow the setup of The Powerful Minister. The civil service examination replaces the recommendation system, and the gong is the first top scholar of the Tian Dynasty after the reforms. △ The poem in the blurb was written by me (made up on the spot). The word "spring" is a double entendre. Once the gong catches on, he becomes quite the carnivore. Couple: scheming, aloof top scholar Chen Jingming, gong x second-generation playboy young marquis Hao Chun, shou, who can take it all Completed novel: The Villainous Powerful Minister Is Everyone's Favorite. Same setting, set a little earlier. Grand Minister Cheng Huaijing and the tyrant Qin Su appear as background figures in this novel's court politics. If you're interested, you can read it as part of the series. I hope you'll enjoy the everyday moments. I'll lie flat and beg for your affection.jpg Weibo: Tang Buqi Theme: In a prosperous age, may all the poor scholars under heaven find shelter and joy.
