[Complete.] My upcoming novels, "After Becoming the Split-Personality Crown Prince's Maid" and "The Golden-Locked House," are open for follows. Blurbs at the very end.
Scheming beauty, future empress x Crown Prince's eldest son disguised as a eunuch
Corrupt eunuchs hold power, while the old emperor is incompetent, lecherous, and fickle.
The eunuch Qian Yuan was ordered to select women for the imperial palace, and brought in a graceful, alluring beauty from Yangzhou.
The emperor was delighted and bestowed on her the title of Lady Rongguo. He built her pavilions and high terraces, and rumors even said he planned to make her empress. Everyone envied her.
Yan Zhi nervously played the role of a favored beauty. But when the emperor fell gravely ill and was close to death, she discovered that the corrupt eunuchs planned to use her in a sacrificial ritual, burning her alive to appease Heaven.
She panicked.
To escape, she set her sights on the young eunuch adopted by the most powerful eunuch in the court.
"When the time comes, just give me a cup of poison and let me die without suffering, all right?"
She tugged at the young eunuch's sleeve, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears, her face as delicate as a pear blossom in the rain.
He wouldn't bear to let her die. He had the power to get her out.
On the day of the ritual, the eunuch kept his promise and handed her a cup of cloudy wine.
Yan Zhi made sure it wasn't poisoned, then drank it without worry.
When she woke again, she discovered she really had been saved.
The young eunuch had changed into the emperor's formal robes. Sitting beside her couch, he glanced her way with phoenix eyes.
"Was it fun scheming against me... my lady?"

When Xiao Ye had just become the Crown Prince's eldest son, the eunuch Qian Yuan once brought him a beauty, but he turned her down.
Later, he discovered that the beauty was sitting beside his imperial grandfather, now the much-favored Lady Rongguo.
- The heroine is a noble lady, not a consort, and has no physical relationship with the old emperor!
- Both leads are each other's first and only; a sweet, lighthearted story

"After Becoming the Split-Personality Crown Prince's Maid" (a dual personality trope; the second personality is a crazed obsessive)
The late Duke of Jingguo has been cleared of the false charges against him, and his legitimate granddaughter, Ming Tian, has suddenly become one of the most sought-after young women in the capital. But to everyone's surprise, she enters the Eastern Palace and becomes an unranked maid to the crown prince.
The crown prince is cold and strict, unmoved by beautiful women. Ming Tian is often scolded and reprimanded for her mistakes, sometimes made to kneel outside the palace hall for an entire day.
Everyone laughs at Ming Tian for having no shame. Even after being rejected so thoroughly, she refuses to give up, bringing disgrace on her family.
But only Ming Tian knows that every night, when the moon rises, the cold and aloof crown prince secretly slips into her bedchamber, kneels beside her couch, and kisses her fingertips obsessively, calling her "Elder Sister."

Three years ago, the crown prince recovered from a serious illness, but was left with a strange aftereffect. When it takes hold, he becomes deranged, cruel, and bloodthirsty. Only Ming Tian can calm him.
The emperor and empress had no choice, and carefully negotiated an agreement with Ming Tian. They would clear the Ming family's name, and Ming Tian would help treat the crown prince.
Ming Tian had it all planned out. Once the crown prince recovered, she would take the treasures bestowed on her by the emperor and return to her hometown, buy a couple of farms, and find herself a gentle, obedient pretty boy to enjoy a lovely, carefree life with.
Everything went smoothly. Ming Tian waited and waited, until at last the crown prince stopped having episodes. On the day he ascended the throne with the ministers' support, Ming Tian packed her bags and set off as promised.
But that very night, before she'd gone far from the capital, the new emperor's imperial guards surrounded her.
Ming Tian watched the new emperor approach step by step, his eyes bloodshot, and thought: This is bad. All that treatment was for nothing.
"The Golden-Locked House" #Mutual pursuit and possession between two powerful leads
As the emperor's most beloved little princess, Miaoyuan always got whatever she wanted.
One day, at a spring outing feast, she set her eyes on a handsome young man with red lips and pearly white teeth, and immediately abducted him to the princess's residence. She built him a golden house, showered him with jewels and precious jade, and even had an exquisite lock made to fasten around their wrists.
The emperor advised Miaoyuan that a melon forced off the vine wouldn't taste sweet, but she couldn't care less. It tasted perfectly sweet to her.
She gave him an official position and noble title, promised him fame and fortune, and watched him go from resisting to yielding, from loathing her to becoming infatuated. His arms around her were strong and warm.
Later, Miaoyuan grew tired of him.
As she took back each honor she had bestowed on him and drove him out of the princess's residence, Miaoyuan never imagined that a few years later, he would use every one of those same tricks on her.

When Gu Zhou first arrived in Chang'an, he hadn't even had the chance to pursue his ambitions before the domineering, overbearing princess abducted him to her residence and made him her exclusive captive.
Over two years, Gu Zhou went from anger and resentment to gradually accepting his fate, calmly enduring everything she gave him.
But he never imagined that just as he began to fall for her and wanted them to spend their lives together, she would cast him aside without mercy.
Years later, Gu Zhou held immense power and had risen to the highest rank in the court. He watched the fallen princess bow low before him, sobbing and trembling, then casually fastened the exquisitely made golden lock around her wrist.
"Princess, long time no see."
Theme: Refusing to yield to fate
A servant who takes the initiative to change the young lady has the nerve to think that if the heroine is alive, his guilt will be relieved. Does the heroine's survival have anything to do with him? Why should he alleviate his guilt?
To be honest, I was still sad to see this, because everyone was plotting, but they never considered the heroine's own thoughts.
Hey, it seems that the female goose has no obvious process of accepting the dog in her heart?
I stayed up late to read it in one sitting. I was convinced and will never open your column at night again.
