The Demonic Consort and the Treacherous Minister

Ning Tang was cherished and indulged from childhood, spoiled and vindictive.

When she was seventeen, the Ning family was convicted and their property confiscated. Then her betrothal was rejected, so she resolutely entered the palace, vowing to win protection for her parents and family.

But because of her dazzling beauty, people whispered that she was destined to become a wicked consort, and the emperor began to neglect her.

Ning Tang thought, If I’m to be a wicked consort, then I might as well act the part. What would be the point of bearing this reputation if I didn’t do anything wicked?

The refined chancellor, who had risen to the highest rank and was as pure as jade, willingly came to her door. She sweet-talked him and accepted him.

Her cousin, who had broken off their engagement, chased her into the palace, and she toyed with him maliciously.

The emperor, who had neglected her, felt his heart grow warm after just a few words from her. A general returned from a distant campaign and fell in love with her at first sight, concealing his feelings...

From beginning to end, Ning Tang never planned to fall in love. Yet whenever she woke from a dream in the middle of the night, she couldn’t help thinking of the hands that had always shielded her when she was at her most desperate.

The man had clear, limpid eyes and was as white as snow on a mountain, utterly at odds with her reputation as a notorious wicked consort.

Ning Tang once thought so, too. Only later did she learn that he was a ruthless, corrupt minister through and through, and the two of them were perfectly matched.

“I’m a fake wicked consort, and you’re a real treacherous minister. Aren’t we a perfect match?” After learning the truth, Ning Tang pressed forward step by step, grabbed Wenren Ci by the collar, and pinned the crafty chancellor against the wall.

Wenren Ci rested a hand on her slender, boneless waist. His eyes glittered like stars, dark and deep as rippling waves. “Since Your Highness is so gracious, this humble minister would be honored to accept.”
