Wen Shuyi was born with a constitution that attracted wolves. Her cousins all eyed her hungrily, while her family despised her and treated her as a femme fatale who brought ruin to men.
Once, she hit her head and fell unconscious. In her dream, she saw the scene of her own death, and it was truly tragic and pitiful.
Wen Shuyi did not want to die, so she set her sights on the emperor, a ruthless ruler who had killed his father and seized the throne.
*
A thunderstorm had just passed that day. The emperor stood beneath a pavilion in the Duke of Rong's residence, admiring the lotus flowers, when a woman suddenly surfaced from the water. Her pale, delicate hand caught the corner of his robe. Her lips trembled as she stammered, "I... I want to enter the palace!"
The emperor looked down at her. Though his face was still young, it seemed to conceal the deep calculations of someone who had seen much of the world. After a long pause, he rasped a single word: "Fine."
Before long, rumors spread through the capital that the wicked fox spirit had bewitched the emperor. Wen Shuyi was only an eighth-rank beauty, yet no one could dislodge her.
A year later, rumors claimed that the emperor had fallen under a fox demon's spell. Wen Shuyi, now a fourth-rank Worthy Lady, still sat securely at his side.
Not long after, the new empress gave birth to the crown prince and became the most favored woman in the harem. No one dared mention the femme fatale rumors again.

Wen Shuyi had a secret. Ever since she woke from her coma, she could see everyone's "colors." For example, loyalty was blue, attraction was pink, and fury was fiery red...
With her special ability, Wen Shuyi used her beauty to get away with murder, leaving her rivals far behind on the road to harem power.
When the emperor first saw her, pink bubbles were already rising all around him...
[Overpowered Golden Finger and Bewitching Beauty] VS [Truly Scheming Emperor]

[Content Warnings]
1. Due to the nature of his job as emperor, the male lead is not a virgin. After falling in love with the female lead, he dismisses the entire harem and stays faithful to her. Happy ending.
2. The female lead is a scheming beauty, possibly even more devious than the emperor. Her goals are clear: stay alive and win his favor.
This novel is also known as "I Fell in Love with the Empress, Only to Find She Doesn't Love Me at All"; "My Empress Only Wants to Stay Alive"; "The Tyrant Begs for Attention Every Day"; and "The Bewitching Empress's Guide to Self-Cultivation."
Note: Regarding the color system, the author's original idea was to give the female lead a golden finger based on people's basic emotions: pink represents affection, fiery red represents anger, and black represents something bad, and so on. Also, the earliest instance of this kind of system that can be found online is from a manga published in 2013. Thank you.
Next novel: "The Beauty Who Brings Good Fortune"
[Arrogant, Aloof, Scheming Tyrant] VS [Radiant, Alluring, Scheming Beauty]
Lu Shengjing had a secret.
Ever since he was young, he had been having erotic dreams. A beautiful woman with a captivating face and a graceful figure always appeared in them.
The beauty would try every trick to seduce him, only to suddenly draw a knife and stab him at the crucial moment...
Lu Shengjing was tormented by these nightmares for years and swore that if he ever found that woman, he would kill her.
Then, on his wedding day, his bride, who had been sent to bring him good fortune, lifted her red veil. A gorgeous, shy face appeared before him.
Lu Shengjing: "..." Heh. Heaven had delivered her right into his hands.
Shen Shuning takes her younger sister's place and marries the disabled heir of Prince Kang's residence, hoping to bring him good fortune.
Thanks to her devoted care, her gravely ill husband not only wakes up, but grows stronger by the day. Even his leg is healed.
It's just that... the way he looks at her is rather strange...
It was the middle of spring in April. In the evening, rain drummed against the plantain leaves by the courtyard wall, muffling a woman's startled cry from inside the room.
Shen Shuning shrank into a corner, clutching her lapels closed. The red-eyed man before her spoke in a low, hoarse voice: "You failed to seduce me, then resorted to all kinds of schemes. You even tampered with my drink?"
Shen Shuning shook her head repeatedly, tears falling like pear blossoms in the rain. "You're slandering me!"
Lu Shengjing suddenly smiled, roguish and charming. "Still denying it? Then why can't I control myself?"
[At first]
Lu Shengjing: Trying to seduce me? Don't even think about it!
[Then]
Lu Shengjing: No matter how hard you scheme, I won't give you a second glance.
[After that]
Lu Shengjing: Want to leave? You'd better give up that idea right now!
[Finally]
Lu Shengjing: Isn't my life what you want? Take it. It's yours. Take everything!
In short, this is a story about a male lead who keeps eating his words every day and ends up falling for the female lead all on his own.
Theme: When you're in a difficult situation, look for solutions instead of giving up easily. Keep going until the end.
In fact, when I read the endings of many novels, many emperors would end up pampering the heroine's children, especially girls, and I felt a little scared. No matter what the male and female protagonists are like, they are all people on the pyramid of feudal society. After going through hardships, they may become childish-hearted and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. What about their children? That is not necessarily the case. There are no restrictions under the imperial power. Can a princess who is deeply loved and has no scruples really consider human life to be insignificant? I'm afraid it's difficult, so this new ending is very interesting.
The extra chapter is very good??, This article is very strange, the beginning is very good, the climax is very sudden, and the ending is a bit unexpected. It's like putting a lot of good ingredients in the same dish but not blending them well, which is a pity. But I still feel that there is too little foreshadowing for the turning point of the story, and the subsequent plot development (except for the extra chapter) is a bit inexplicable. Fortunately, the extra chapter is rounded out a little (from 3 to 4). Overall, it is not bad.
Looks great, looking forward to the next one
After reading it, it looks good, and I still have more to say. Sprinkle flowers.
The first time I watched it, I felt like it had happened before.
Very few people write about people who die of old age and grow old together. Yeah, yeah, it's very touching.
When will Jiaojiao remember?
Ahhhhh! Tears! !
In fact, I am really afraid of seeing the protagonist in the story die when he gets old, and I feel empty inside.
