◎ Blurb:
An old fortune-teller surnamed Li read the Chang family fortune twice. The first time, he saved Master Chang's life.
The second time, eight-year-old Chang Kan chased him down and beat him half to death.
"Born to be a phoenix, destined to rule the inner palace."
"Are you blind? I'm a boy! A boy!" Chang Kan cursed as his father hauled him away, sparing Daoist Li his life.
Later, Chang Kan went to Houliang Commandery on business. His buyer was a girl who barely reached his shoulder, dressed as a man and wearing a sword at her waist. Her clear, crisp voice was more pleasing to the ear than the bells of the sea.
The girl pecked him on the cheek, then grinned and pinched his chin as she bargained. "You're so handsome. When I become emperor, I'll make you my empress. How about I knock another twenty percent off this shipment?"
He couldn't tell whether the sea bells had bewitched him or whether the girl had drugged her lips.
For once, Chang Kan agreed without a fuss.
Later still...
The empress took the throne and united the realm. The imperial consort entered the Eastern Palace with the rites due a principal consort, but was forced from his sedan chair on Sixteen Bridge, before the Gate of Great Qin.
In a bright red wedding robe, Chang Kan cracked his whip several times, knocking the Imperial Guards protecting the empress aside, then strode straight up to the Crown Princess.
With the sun shining down on her, she was dazzlingly beautiful. He raised his eyes to the stars and moon and declared, "I'm here to collect a debt!"
He curled his lips, revealing a small, gleaming canine, and called the Crown Princess by name. "Su Yue, we swore an oath before Our Lady of Mazu. The inner palace is mine, and now I want the Crown Princess's position too!"
Coming next: "Sibling Bully" #Forced Marriage and Conquest #Forbidden Love
Xie Wu, the illegitimate second daughter of the Loyal and Valiant Marquis's household, has an older brother who indulges her without restraint.
Relying on Xie Changyi's status, Xie Wu secures a divorce from the disgraced Duke of Zhongguo's household and marries Han Chengli, an official overseeing the salt trade.
But after only a year of marriage, Han Chengli is caught up in an official scandal and murdered at Qin Tower.
Xie Changyi personally goes to the Han household to bring his sister home, taking her and the little burden left behind by the Han family under his wing.
Everyone envies Xie Wu her good fortune. Even with her bad luck in love, she has a brother who cherishes and protects her, so she can live out her days without worry.
But little do they know that late at night, a voice like an evil spirit comes from above her: "A Wu, who else do you want to marry?"
Xie Wu trembles and begs for mercy. "Xie Changyi... I won't marry again... I won't... Please let me go..."
He leans close, breathing in the scent of her neck. His eyes curve as if savoring the fragrance of tea. "Good girl, you'll never escape my grasp in this lifetime."
Xie Wu's tears fall despite her best efforts, her fear and sorrow catching in her throat. "Xie Changyi... please..."
"Hm?" Xie Changyi chuckles and sits on the edge of her bed. With an irresistible forcefulness, he grips her ankle through the thin quilt. "A Wu, good girl, what did you call me?"
"Yi... Yilang..." Xie Wu sobs, tears falling into her hair.
[Important] The male and female leads are not related by blood, and they have no romantic relationship while they are brother and sister.
Sweet story coming soon: "My Wife Is a Treasure"
◎ The night Luo Ming received an imperial edict arranging his engagement, a young girl squatted on the high rooftop of the marquis's residence. Luo Ming climbed a ladder to reach her, then raised his hand angrily to strike her.
The little girl looked up at him with big, tear-filled eyes and asked, bewildered, "Brother, Mother doesn't want me anymore. Do you not want me either?"
Luo Ming had always known that his little Xiang was brave and clever.
Usually, all her tears and tantrums were little tricks to get him to care for her more.
But this time, he was wrong.
Two months after Xiang went missing, a young, beautiful fisherwoman arrived in Su Zhuang Village on the outskirts of the capital. The village's old and young all adored her.
She gently pushed her long pole through a thousand ripples. Cormorants, just old enough to spread their wings, plunged into the river from the bamboo raft like dumplings dropping into a pot.
The girl sang her fishing songs loudly, prompting the other fishermen to beat their bamboo poles and cheer. Some kind souls even shouted that they would find her a match, praising their own grandsons as handsome.
Luo Ming searched north for her in vain, but on the boat home, he spotted that familiar figure.
His foot slipped, and he tumbled into the river.
The girl heard him and came to his rescue, extending her pole. When she saw who it was, she tried to push him back under with it. Luo Ming played the victim and complained until he finally managed to follow her home.
The door shut. The big bad wolf showed his true colors and pinned her in a cramped corner. "Xiang, when you were studying, I taught you that if you break your word, you'll be punished. That day, I clearly said 'yes.' You were the one who started this. You can't take it back now."
Theme: Keep your promises.
Is it Shuangjie? Does the heroine favor Jin Yuze? When can we solve the Jin family? It's so frustrating.
Wang Ziyu, he is a pure official, he has no parents, he has a wife and children in the afternoon, the word "wu" is wrong.
The cat guy who wrote the article: "Meow~meow, meow, meow~meow!"
Assistant translator: "The next book is about "Brother's Deception" Pseudo-Orthopaedics, click on the column to receive it.
(The review is great, I don't drive. Meow meow meow is a short and fast onomatopoeia, not a protracted voice like a moan. Really.)
It was a little uncomfortable to watch. I thought from the introduction that the male protagonist was a spoiled wife, but it turned out that the female protagonist was a spoiled wife.
The male protagonist's words are not very good: "We will use this city full of people to bury our undying love."
She's gone, she doesn't accept having a concubine, there are many ways to compensate, it's not fair to the hero or the other person to have someone as a concubine.
Very good woman, your cover attracted me, you are playing with fire (づ ●─● )づ
Look good. Write for me quickly. Write as fast as you can!
