The Crown Prince has a volatile nature and may lose his position as heir.
The Empress chooses a Crown Princess whose birth chart is said to bring him good fortune.
The Crown Princess is seven years younger than the Crown Prince and has been raised in the Eastern Palace since she was five.
The Crown Prince looks at the little girl, as delicate as a doll, and scoffs. "You think a little kid can keep me in line?"
He never gives her another glance. He carries on as a dissolute playboy, and, after finally ascending the throne, proves himself more than capable of living up to his reputation as a tyrant.
The tyrant neglects state affairs every day. On their wedding night, he leaves his little Empress alone in the bridal chamber without even looking at her, and orders that from then on, she stay as far away from him as possible.
One day, the tyrant meets a beautiful, innocent young woman outside the palace.
He falls in love at first sight, suppresses his usual violence, and takes the initiative to speak to her.
Wen Xia turns pale with fright and says timidly, "This concubine pays her respects to Your Majesty. This concubine will leave at once."
The tyrant: "..."

Qi Yan hates the Wen family. Even though Wen Xia has done nothing wrong, he sends her to a remote palace and leaves her to fend for herself.
Until, by chance, he sees a beautiful woman standing slender and graceful outside the palace. By the water, amid a sea of lanterns, he catches a fleeting glimpse of her and admits that his heart seems to have stirred.
For her sake, he lets go of the grudges he has held for years.
When he learns Wen Xia has suffered for twelve years and loves jade, he orders people to travel thousands of miles to buy a mountain and mine its jade, all just to make her smile.
Seeing Wen Xia gentle and demure, looking deeply moved, he finally feels reassured.
After all, he, the Son of Heaven, is willing to bow his head for her, and she is the only woman he favors.
Wen Xia suffers from coldness in her body and cannot conceive, so Qi Yan searches everywhere for renowned doctors to treat her.
But one doctor says the Empress is taking contraceptive medicine.
Only then does Qi Yan hear her say to her close friend, "I don't want to bear him an heir."
The ring on Qi Yan's hand shatters as he crushes it in his fist.
A few things to know before reading:
· A groveling romance with physical and emotional angst.
· The male lead is awful at first, but grows into a devoted, puppy-like husband.
· Please don't blame the author for the characters' behavior. Let's all be polite to one another.
Note: The romance only develops when she is sixteen, not when she is five as the blurb suggests.
Please add my upcoming novel, "Long Illness, No Favor."
Blurb:
When Sang Feiwan punishes Aque, she accidentally discovers a book called Pampered Darling among her mother's belongings.
She is shocked to learn that the little slave Aque, whom she has been beating and scolding, is the male lead of this story, while she is merely a cannon-fodder character who will be tortured to death by him.
The story is mainly about his romance with the heroine, the sweet and delicate Xiaojiao, after he becomes the ruler of the world.
Sang Feiwan is only eleven, and the book makes her cheeks flush bright red.
She looks at the sixteen-year-old boy hanging from a tree by her hand. He is thin and disheveled, but his beautiful eyes are bright and alert as he stares at her like a little beast lying in wait.
Sang Feiwan trembles, furious that the version of her in the book is tortured so terribly by him. She treats him even worse, then often wakes in the night, conflicted, and brings him ointment, pretending to be meek. "I just can't control myself. Please don't hold it against me in the future."
Lu Dongyu has a tragic past and suffers terribly at the hands of Sang Feiwan, the least favored young lady in the Prime Minister's household. Whenever she is upset, she takes it out on him twice as harshly. He has long since grown accustomed to a life where no one cares about him.
At a banquet in the Prime Minister's residence, several young men from prominent families step on his face and laugh as they seek Sang Feiwan's approval. Everyone in the capital knows he is nothing but Sang Feiwan's dog.
But Sang Feiwan rises onto her toes and shields him behind her. "Don't bully someone who belongs to me!" she snaps, slapping one of them across the face. Later, the Prime Minister punishes her, and she takes out her anger on the whip in her hand.
Lu Dongyu has a little secret.
He was born with a surge of inner energy, and the more he is whipped, the stronger it grows.
Every time Sang Feiwan beats him, his flesh and skin ache, yet his entire body feels wonderfully refreshed.
When he conquers the world,
his iron cavalry surrounds the Prime Minister's residence, and Sang Feiwan's legs go weak with fear.
Everyone in the residence turns ashen when they see that he is the new emperor.
But he lowers his head and offers Sang Feiwan both the position of Empress and his whip.
Theme: Persevere, ride the wind, and break through the waves.
After reading the full text, I was filled with emotions. It's been a long time since I've read Jin Jiang's novel. This is the only chapter that I've been able to read this year without missing a chapter. I'm deeply immersed in the author's story. The author's writing style is undoubtedly very good, and his words and sentences are also well-founded. Especially the description of the war is real and immersive, as if he has entered a bloody, dangerous, and ever-changing battlefield.
Every character created by the author is very good. The male protagonist is unruly in the early stage, the courageous but tragic Queen Mother Zhang, the knight-errant who only meets the male protagonist a few times, and even the daughter of the male and female protagonist Zhao Zhao in the extra story. Every character has flesh and blood. As for the male supporting character Huo, his portrayal is even more amazing. His good and bad qualities are all very natural and in line with human nature. The world is not black and white, and people are not only pure good and evil. This character is affectionate, ruthless, and righteous. I really like this character.
On the other hand, the heroine's character is not that likable. If the author thinks that this article is just a non-nutritious fast food and sweet pet article, the character of the heroine will be nothing more. It is a work to pass the time, no matter how pretentious the heroine is, how charming and luxurious the vase is.
But if you go deeper into the story and understand the profound ideas, this is not a mindless sweet novel, nor is it a fast food article.
But the character of the heroine is still hard to describe. Even if she later entered the battlefield and showed her value as a heroine, she still made me feel very disconnected.
Because the author's writing style is so good, the characters are so well created, the details are full, and the characters are vivid on the page, which makes the image of the delicate and timid vase heroine in the early stage so three-dimensional, and makes the heroine who later understands her family and country so clearly separated.
Of course she needs to grow up, but this transition is really...
She is very unpleasant. It's not even as clear and neat as the character of Cuscuta at the beginning, and Qiang An's halo as a virtuous queen is not as good as that of other strong female novels.
In short, this article is still very good, thank the author for writing this good story.
It's so beautiful, I feel so reluctant to part with it
Extra story about babies, the best twins are twins
Words have their own natural power, and every story is moving! ! See you in the new chapter (/≧▽≦/)
In fact, if you are already an empress, why do you have to disperse the harem? Sometimes it is really the women themselves who set the shackles for themselves [Split]
Emperor Xia, please accept my knees
It's so cruel. Can the Queen Mother be reborn?
I really like the current male lead haha, looking forward to the sequel
