The Concubine Who Fled the Prince's Mansion

The neighboring novel, A Beauty Is No Delicate Flower, is now underway. If you like the sound of it, please add it to your collection.

Tang Wan, the legitimate daughter of the wealthy Tang family in the capital, was never favored by her elders. She struggled to survive until the age of fifteen. Because she was beautiful, as soon as she came of age, her family decided to "sell" her to the Prince of Nan's residence as a concubine.

When Tang Wan heard the news, she quickly married the impoverished scholar next door. The Tang family gave her a hundred taels of silver as her dowry and cut ties with her.

She thought she would have to live in poverty from then on, but her husband kept bringing home nice things every few days: bird's nest with silver fungus, ginseng, deer antler, and more.

Tang Wan wanted to ask where they came from.

Her husband shook his head. "Don't ask. If you ask, I found them."

Then one day, she saw the usually arrogant Prince of Nan bow deeply and respectfully to her husband. "L-Little Imperial Uncle."

Some time later, Tang Wan discovered another little secret her husband had buried deep in his heart...

Title: A Beauty Is No Delicate Flower

Blurb: Yun Ya grew up at the residence of the General Who Guards the North on the frontier. She was fourteen and nearly old enough to marry when her grandmother finally brought her back to the capital.

Her fiancé, Lan Minzhi, heir to the Marquis of Anping, was peerlessly handsome. On the very first day Yun Ya returned to the capital, she fell in love with him at first sight.

In her previous life, she listened to her aunt and believed that women in the capital were all supposed to be like her cousin Yun Shang: frail as a willow and soft as water.

To marry Lan Minzhi,

she gave up all her martial arts and was left with a body full of aches and illness, turning herself into the delicate beauty everyone talked about.

In the end, she was abandoned by everyone and died miserably. Worse still, her beloved uncle's entire family was dragged down with her and met a tragic end.

Reborn, she faced Lan Minzhi and her aunt's honeyed words,

and only smiled as she began to flex her wrists.

Su Wangchu, the only heir of the Duke of Ying's household, was a notorious young wastrel in the capital. Perhaps because his name contained the character for "break," he really was a breaker of things.

One day, he cornered Yun Ya against a wall.

Yun Ya looked at him with a pitiful, aggrieved expression, so delicate and helpless that anyone would feel sorry for her.

She coughed twice, as though by accident, and was so frightened she could barely get her words out.

"M-M-Mr. Su, what, what do you intend to do?"

Su Wangchu: Damn it!

He was used to seeing women bully people behind his back, but this was the first time he'd seen her act like this. He couldn't resist. What was he supposed to do?

A heroine who's both sweet and sassy, and knows how to act cute VS a hero who's silver-tongued but devoted and deeply affectionate

Title: Forced to Take It Easy, I Became Everyone's Darling

Blurb: In her previous life, Sheng Yin schemed at every turn and did every manner of evil, finally getting her wish and ascending to the throne as empress.

She had barely warmed the seat

when a bolt of heavenly lightning struck her dead.

As she drew her last breath, she vaguely thought it was probably because she'd done too many bad things in this life. Even Heaven couldn't stand it anymore, so it had taken her away on behalf of all living beings.

She thought that if she had another life, she would be kind.

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the age of five.

Looking at the people who would become her sworn enemies, all of them now children,

Sheng Yin wrestled with herself for a while before reaching a decision.

She could think about being kind after she killed them all.

But just as she was about to make her move,

thunder rumbled across the cloudless sky.

Sheng Yin: Damn it!

She'd already been struck dead by lightning once. She didn't want to die that way a second time.

She quickly suppressed her evil thoughts. In an instant, the thunder faded and the sky cleared again.

Sheng Yin: ...

So this thing came with mind-reading powers, too.

From then on, whenever an evil thought crossed her mind, heavenly thunder would appear to warn her.

It forced Sheng Yin into becoming the easygoing sort in everyone else's eyes.

Sheng Yin was at a loss.

She'd thought she would never get ahead in this life,

but unexpectedly,

the very people who had once wanted to tear her to pieces now doted on her endlessly.

Even the Crown Prince shamelessly came to ask for her hand.

Sheng Yin: ...

Theme: Better to be a poor scholar's wife than a prince's concubine.
