Gu Wanyan had been told since childhood that he was destined to be a solitary star. After twenty-three years living by the blade, he was still alone.

Later, when peace finally came to the land, he settled in a remote mountain village in Yunyang Prefecture under the identity of Gu Sanlang, in order to fulfill a departed friend's last wish.

Blurb for Kidnapping a Dead Eunuch:

Seasoned shut-in Sang Yu transmigrates into a book and becomes a cannon-fodder supporting female character in a male-oriented power fantasy, destined to pave the way for the male lead's ambitions.

In the story, the male lead wants to seize the throne. He persuades the old emperor to bring her back from the Lishan villa, then sweet-talks the original owner into going to Xishu to marry its prince, all so she can pass him intelligence and help him from within.

Later, when Xishu falls, she is no longer of any use. The male lead shoots an arrow through her heart, leaving her to die in the snowstorms of Xishu with her eyes still open.

Unwilling to accept her fate, Sang Yu decides to make a run for it. But as she packs her bags, she turns around and crashes into Xue Qian, the book's villainous chief eunuch. She even finds him so handsome that she wants to abduct him and make him her bodyguard.

Sang Yu: QAQ, I'm dead for sure this time!

Xue Qian is a noble gentleman, ruthless and cunning. He manipulates the emperor and wields power over the entire court. He seems to have it all, but in truth, everyone hates him.

Everyone says he spends his whole life chasing power, with a heart even more eunuch-like than he is.

Yet, on the day the new emperor ascends the throne, Xue Qian, a meritorious official, willingly lays down his power. All he wants is to spend his life with one person, keeping her safe and happy, shielding her from hardship, and living in harmony with her from then on.

Blurb for After Transmigrating Into a Book, I Raised a Top Scholar:

When Xin Tian wakes up, she finds that she has transmigrated into a male-oriented novel and become Xin Tian, the male lead Zhao Tianqi's child bride, a cannon-fodder character.

In the book, Xin Tian works herself to the bone to support Zhao Tianqi's studies. He even tricks her into wagering her chastity, all so she can help him remove Shen Qingshu, the obstacle in his way.

Who could have guessed that once Zhao Tianqi achieves fame and success, he would turn around and marry the chancellor's daughter as his proper wife? Using Xin Tian's premarital loss of chastity as an excuse, he makes her his hidden mistress, and she eventually dies of depression.

Xin Tian transmigrates right into the scene where the original owner was framed. Before her are a frail scholar who faces the crowd's accusations and gently reassures her that he'll take responsibility, and a pushy, treacherous scumbag.

Thinking of the original owner's fate, she joins Shen Qingshu's side without hesitation.

*

His attempt to frame her backfires, costing him his reputation. Enraged and humiliated, Zhao Tianqi sells her off to Shen Qingshu for two taels of silver, calling it a marriage.

Only after Xin Tian arrives at the Shen family home does she realize that, aside from their tottering house, the family is desperately poor. Even Shen Qingshu's tuition was waived by his teacher because of his talent.

After two days of plain rice porridge and cabbage, Xin Tian can't take it anymore. She picks up the skills she once looked down on, embroidering sachets and making ink sticks. Not only does she help the Shen family live comfortably, she also raises Shen Qingshu into a plump, rosy-cheeked top scholar.

The scumbag's life goes from bad to worse, and he ultimately fails the civil service examinations. He weeps and begs her to take him back. Someone, dressed in a top scholar's robe and holding Xin Tian by the waist, produces the imperial decree granting them marriage. "I'm married. Don't bother me."
