This novel won't be starting for now. I'm still undecided.
Everyone knows that Emperor Qin has no interest in women and loves only his empire.
But who is it that rests her head on his lap at midnight, sleeping peacefully like a child?
Ah Mei is a lowly palace maid, barely surviving behind the palace walls.
As insignificant as she is, all she asks for is enough to eat and wear.
Until one stormy night, she is ordered to deliver an elixir to his chambers.
When she reaches the palace with its winding corridors, she sees servants kneeling all over the place outside the dark, imposing bedchamber.
The emperor has taken elixirs for years, leaving his moods unpredictable and everyone afraid of him.
She is neither afraid nor intimidated. She pushes open the black cypress doors decorated with cranes and steps into the life that will be hers.
"My surname is Ying, my clan name Zhao, and my given name Mei."
My life began in 218 BC.
I was sixteen then, at the blossoming age of youth, when I met my sun.
I've decided to finish writing the whole novel before publishing it. I expect to start around September 2021.
Coming soon, novel one: Gu She.
An old-school xianxia novel, a sweet romance.
Coming soon, novel two: When She Came, Fragrant Snow Covered the Ground.
An ancient setting romance about a woman disguised as a man, chasing after her wife.
Content warnings:
1. There is a large age gap between the leads.
2. Qin Shi Huang's death at Shaqiu will be included.
3. The timeline may change.
4. This is a very loose adaptation. Don't read it if you expect historical accuracy.
5. Written in third person, not first person.
6. The heroine is a palace maid, and there is a huge gap in status between the leads.
That's all I can think of for now.
