The Cold Palace Prince Is Not to Be Trifled With

This story will be available for purchase starting from Chapter 26 on December 3. If you've already read it, please don't buy it. Thank you!

On the first day Tang Li transmigrated into a book, she stumbled upon a body-dumping scene. Unfortunately, she was the body.

At their first meeting, Chu Jingxiu wanted to dig a hole and bury her.

At their second meeting, he hung her from a tree to dry like a fish.

Tang Li wanted to stay away from this lunatic, but with a knife at her throat, she had no choice but to give in.

In the original book, she meets the Third Prince and eventually becomes empress. Tang Li decides to respect the original story. After all, being empress is more comfortable than being a palace maid.

She just never expected that Crazy Chu would send her off as a hostage to an enemy kingdom, ruining her dream.

Ever since Chu Jingxiu got together with the little palace maid, the unexpected kept happening. After a few months as hostages, the enemy kingdom insisted on exchanging them, and the two were sent back together.

Then the Third Prince, who was supposed to inherit the throne, was sent off as a hostage instead.

Tang Li is completely baffled. Why is this nothing like the original book?

Tang Li pokes him with a stick. "Go ascend the throne already!"

Chu Jingxiu takes her hand. "What's in it for me if I become emperor?"

Tang Li hesitates. "I get to be empress?"

"Deal!"

Chu Jingxiu had originally planned to destroy the Chu dynasty. But for his sweet treasure, he has no choice but to take the throne and give her a world of her own.

Coming soon: Golden Lotus

When Ye Jinhe sees Shen Shizhou again, she witnesses the two most beautiful women in the capital confessing their love to him. Jinhe thinks, This man has nothing but a handsome face. He's cold and heartless. Whoever marries him will be doomed!

Later, Jinhe gets into danger on the street and Shen Shizhou rescues her. Unfortunately, the heir to the Shen family is "trampled" by a donkey's hoof. The imperial physician diagnoses him as unable to father children, and the women who used to cry and beg to marry him fall silent.

Shen Shizhou comes to the Ye family. "How will you repay me for saving your life?"

Jinhe: "..." So she's the one who's doomed.

Everyone thinks Shen Shizhou is marrying Ye Jinhe to get revenge, but then Jinhe gets pregnant.

"...!" The heir has a condition?

The imperial physician rushes out to set the record straight. "It was a misdiagnosis. The heir is perfectly healthy!"

Jinhe, with her pregnant belly, says, "My lord, what a schemer you are."

Shen Shizhou smiles apologetically. "I'm grateful my wife didn't reject me."

People congratulate her on finding such a good match. Jinhe just smiles without a word. A good match, as they say, is simply someone who has gone to great lengths to love you.

A little scene

Jinhe hugs a kitten and hides behind a woodpile, engrossed in the tragic romance she's overhearing.

"Who's there?"

After a meow, a little calico cat walks out. It turns around and sits on the ground, staring without blinking at the woodpile.

Jinhe: "..." Don't look at me. Look at him.

"Enjoying eavesdropping?"

Jinhe slowly raises her head and meets Shen Shizhou's amused gaze.
