The Phoenix Takes Flight

The phoenix soars, finding shelter in the parasol tree.

Luo Huang transmigrates into a book as a supporting female character who is madly in love with the male lead.

She pours her family's resources into helping him, targets the female lead at every turn, and commits every evil deed imaginable. In the end, she successfully helps the male lead ascend the throne, while she is left to die by the three-foot white silk, despised by everyone.

Looking at the male lead, who has come to take her to the Eastern Palace as his concubine, Luo Huang is in a panic.

So, on the way to the Eastern Palace, Luo Huang flees and happens to run into the male lead's half-brother, Prince Chen.

Ready to throw caution to the wind, Luo Huang grabs Prince Chen by the collar, kisses him on the lips, and declares that they have long been in love and that she will marry no one but him in this life!

She also tearfully begs Prince Chen not to seduce her and then abandon her.

Prince Chen, bewildered after being kissed out of the blue: "Do I know you?"

"It doesn't matter if you know me. I know you, and that's enough!"

By now, the villainous supporting female character has a terrible reputation. Besides the male lead, who only pretends to care for her, the only person who doesn't know much about her illustrious misdeeds is Prince Chen. Luo Huang decisively chooses him as her fallback.

With her powerful family backing her, there's no way she can't win him over!

In the end, under Luo Huang's threats and inducements (and shameless persistence), and with the full support of the Luo clan, Prince Chen finally petitions for an imperial decree to marry her, making her Princess Consort of Chen.

Luo Huang: Isn't being the primary wife better than being the male lead's concubine?

Prince Chen may be young, but he is far more sweet and charming than the male lead, whose temper is vicious.

The first time Yuan Feng saw Luo Huang, she forcibly kissed him. Somehow, he then became the person who had pledged to spend his life with her.

At first, Yuan Feng thinks: This woman must have ulterior motives!

Later: I hear you're going back to your parents' home? Why don't you take me with you?

People tell him about her past, saying she's two-faced and wicked, but Yuan Feng doesn't take them to heart. He plays dumb on the surface, though he sees everything clearly.

Good or evil, she is the love of his life.

In this chaotic era, where the victor becomes king and the defeated are condemned, everyone is at the mercy of others. Who can truly stay out of it?

Luo Huang can't, and neither can he.

In short, whoever dares to lay a hand on Luo Huang becomes his enemy.

"You want the phoenix crown of the empress? Then I will place it in your hands myself. I only wish to guard this vast land with you, my love, until our hair turns white, never to part."

1. The male lead is a sweet puppy at first, then a wolf-dog later on.

2. The female lead's soul is nine years older than the male lead, but their bodies are only a year apart in age.

3. The male lead will replace the original male lead and become emperor.

Please add my next book, Princess Chengyang of the Tang Dynasty, to your reading list!

Li Yi wakes up to find that she has become Princess Chengyang of the Tang Dynasty.

But that's not the point. The point is, there's a man asleep beside her: Xue Guan, the sworn enemy who grew up with her!

That's still not the point. The point is that Princess Chengyang is now married, and her husband is Du He, son of Du Ruhui, a renowned minister of the Zhenguan era.

Could anything be worse?

Suppressing her overwhelming embarrassment, Li Yi hurriedly pulls her sworn enemy aside to plot: "You know, I know, heaven and earth know. We absolutely cannot let a third person find out!"

But when she tries to run away, she bumps straight into Du He's arms.

Li Yi: ...It's over.

As expected, things can get worse: her current husband has caught her "in bed with another man."

From then on, Li Yi begins her struggle to survive as a Tang princess.

In the seventeenth year of the Zhenguan era, Du He is executed for treason, and her father, Li Shimin, chooses a new husband for her: her sworn enemy Xue Guan, with whom she once spent a passionate night.

After their wedding, Li Yi and Xue Guan agree on three rules: "To keep my father happy, let's make the best of things for now. When the time is right, we'll get divorced."

Xue Guan agrees wholeheartedly, then quietly takes out a book titled How to Build a Happy Marriage.

Want a divorce? No chance!
