Blurb:
The concubine-born Mingyuan visited her elder sister at the Fourth Prince Yinzhen's residence, only to be set up by her sister and made into Yinzhen's concubine.
The night was cool. Yinzhen studied her for a long while. She was indeed beautiful, with skin fairer than snow and a pair of captivating, limpid eyes.
He tossed off a pleased, "Don't go," then lay back down on the couch.
Word around town had it that Fei Yanggu's youngest daughter had skin like cream and natural beauty.
One glance from her limpid eyes was enough to make anyone bare their heart to her.
When Yinzhen heard this, he merely laughed it off.
But then he gave her land and savings, used his power to help her mother and younger brother escape the family's control, and braved his father's wrath to secure an imperial decree granting her a title.
Then he learned she was plotting to fake her death and escape. The Fourth Prince Yinzhen, who had given her his whole heart, suddenly realized:
She never sewed the clothes she promised to make for him.
She never cooked the meals she promised to make for him.
She never bore the child she promised to have for him.

Coming-soon blurb:
Jiang Yingxue was the young emperor's personal maid. She had almond-shaped eyes, rosy cheeks, and a bewitching, alluring beauty.
At sixteen, the empress dowager arranged for her to marry the second son of the prime minister's family.
But on the eve of her wedding, Jiang Yingxue had a dream. In it, the second son, a refined and handsome young man, gripped her chin and said in a voice cold as ice, "You've slept with the young emperor, and you still dare to dream of becoming a wife of the Li family?"
With that, he shoved her away and left without looking back.
For the next three years, she lived under her husband's suspicion and the cold stares of the household, and died of despair.
When she awoke, Jiang Yingxue saw the red candles all around her. She turned and threw herself into the young emperor's arms.
The night was cool. Xiao Mo, the young emperor, looked at the woman dressed in red silk and said flatly, "Yingxue, you've been so dutiful. The wedding is tomorrow. Do you want to serve me one last time tonight?"
He put particular emphasis on the words "serve me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman loosened her red silk and wrapped her arms around his narrow waist, trembling as she said, "This servant doesn't want to marry. Please grant my wish, Your Majesty."
She didn't want to marry? When the empress dowager's decree arranging her marriage arrived, he had heard that she was delighted.
After a sleepless night, the young emperor, who had always cared about appearances, made the most outrageous decision of his life: he stole the second son of the prime minister's bride!
The young emperor Xiao Mo is obsessive and gloomy, ruling the court with an iron fist, but no one knows he was once a bright and sunny young man.
That young man had someone he couldn't let go of in his heart. When his mother punished him and his brothers bullied him, she kept him company as he crouched on the ground and cried.
When he ascended the throne and stained his hands with blood to purge the court, she stayed by his side too.
But just when he thought she would never leave him, his mother arranged her marriage to another man with a single decree.
And she happily packed her belongings and put on her wedding dress.
The young emperor, who had not killed anyone in a long time, looked at the prime minister's jubilant family: You will all die!

Theme: Even when life puts you in dire straits, never give up hope!
I also feel that the wording and sentence construction throughout the text are a bit pretentious and imitative but lack the essence. Dream of Red Mansions looks lighter than this.
The visuals are very strong, but the plot progress is a bit slow. I don't seem to see anything...
It suddenly occurred to me that if it was Zha Zha Long, he might actually have accepted this piece of celery.
Don't know what the author is writing about?
I used too many words this time, which seems a bit pretentious. It would be better not to use them in some places.
It feels like forcibly chanting and writing lyrics, without diamonds or porcelain work.
Hurry up and make a comeback, you are too weak now
... Just no extra story?
There are too many descriptions of pink hands
Damn, come on, I'm waiting for you to continue updating
