The Tyrant's Little Empress

The crown prince was thrown from his horse in an accident on the way back to the capital, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down. The unruly King of Qin, Xie Xuan Chao, took his place and became crown prince.

The Wen family had a daughter named Wen Liuyi, born with an alluring charm. She was childhood friends with the former crown prince, and her position as crown princess had seemed all but certain. But overnight, the winds shifted, and the crown prince was replaced.

The shock caused Wen Liuyi to faint. When she woke, she had lost her memory. Just as everyone was lamenting the Wen family's misfortune, the new crown prince personally came to the Wen residence and asked for Wen Liuyi's hand in marriage, offering her the position of future empress.

[Short scenes]

1. While Wen Liuyi had amnesia, she mistook the cold and ruthless emperor for the former crown prince and said softly, "Brother Yuanjue, I like you."

When the palace attendants heard the empress say this, they all fell to their knees, trembling from head to toe and sweating profusely as they waited for the emperor's thunderous wrath.

The emperor swept his hawk-like gaze over everyone in the hall, then slowly turned his attention to the bright, sparkling eyes of the woman before him. The next moment, he softened his voice, his eyes filled with nothing but tenderness. "Be good, Yiyi. I like you too."

He failed to notice the attendants with bowed heads widening their eyes in disbelief.

2. After Wen Liuyi regained her memory, she tried in a panic to escape from Xie Xuan Chao.

Xie Xuan Chao loosely clasped her neck, his long fingers gliding over her lips. His unfathomable eyes held a bloodthirsty glint. "Yiyi, for every step you take, I'll have someone cut Xie Yuanjue once."

"You... you're lying," Wen Liuyi said, trembling.

Xie Xuan Chao gave a sinister, bewitching laugh, twisted tenderness in his smile. "Yiyi, I never lie to you. Have you forgotten?"

Just as I said I would marry you when I was ten. No one believed me, but now look, you're my wife all the same.

Emperor Chenglie was cruel and ruthless, invincible, and accomplished countless great deeds in his life. Only Wen Liuyi could trample all over his heart and then casually say, "The one I've loved was never you."
