The Right Way to Be the Ming Dynasty's Favorite Consort

[If you need trigger warnings, please move along.]

Additional introduction, 2026.01.07: This is my comeback-and-get-back-in-practice project after being away from Jinjiang for many years... Personally, I think the pacing at the beginning is average, but it hits its stride starting from Chapter 15. I'm fairly happy with the second half, after Judy leaves.

(I originally labeled this as fanfiction for The Glory of Ming, but later decided the story actually had little to do with the show, so I changed that!)

Emperor Xuanzong of Ming, Zhu Zhanji x Empress Sun Ruowei

Childhood sweethearts who grew up together, the young couple joining forces to level up and defeat their enemies~

The story generally follows historical logic, but isn't confined by history. The female lead goes through a period of growth as she builds up her strength, and the further the story goes, the more she changes history. Stay tuned for the plot!

You can search the Weibo tag "The Historical Black Egg" for the sources I consulted while writing.

Next Book

The Everlasting Song of Yongle, Emperor Chengzu of Ming, Zhu Di x Empress Xu

A sweet romance about the emperor and empress back in the day~ The main couple's story is 100% sweet, no angst, one-on-one~ This should also soothe readers who felt dissatisfied with what the female lead went through in this story...

Like this novel, both leads are intelligent, level-headed, and never make a fuss. The young couple stand together as one as they build their empire. There will be court intrigues, but nothing too complicated, as well as battle scenes.
