My next novel is The Princess Wants to Be Emperor. Blurb for this novel: By imperial decree, Liu Hanying, the eldest daughter of the Minister of Personnel, was betrothed to Prince Shu as his second wife. Prince Shu was the emperor's younger brother. Not only was he powerful and highly regarded by the emperor, he was also handsome and distinguished. Though she would be his second wife, Liu Hanying would officially become his princess consort once she married him.
When the imperial decree was issued, some people in the capital envied her, while others looked forward to the spectacle. After all, Prince Shu was a fickle man with countless beauties in his household. Liu Hanying's family and standing were both inferior to those of the late princess consort, and no one knew what would happen to her once she entered the prince's residence!
Not long after the betrothal, the clever second daughter of the prince's household came over to show off. “Father hunted a red fox. Its fur is so bright that he had a pair of gloves made especially for Mother.”
Liu Hanying: “Oh.”
Shortly after Liu Hanying arrived, the secondary consort showed up late for the formal greeting. “The princess consort is noble and precious, and the household affairs are so demanding. If you tire yourself out, it would be my fault. I'll have no choice but to help you manage the household.”
Liu Hanying: “Mm.”
The beauty Prince Shu had brought back from the south smiled broadly. “The princess consort is so kind and benevolent. I felt close to you the moment I saw you.”
Liu Hanying: “Huh?”
Being a second wife is hard, and being a prince's second wife is even harder. Liu Hanying diligently managed the household, keeping everything in perfect order and arranging matters for her stepchildren and the children born to the secondary consorts. Even Prince Shu had to humor Liu Hanying and smile along with her.
Her wet nurse advised her to serve Prince Shu carefully, warning that without his favor she would have no standing in the household. Liu Hanying smiled and ran her fingers over the strings of her qin. “Nanny, even without the prince's favor, who in this household would dare not show me respect?”
The heroine has no romantic feelings for the hero. Their relationship can be seen as that of a superior and subordinate.
This novel is entirely fictional. Please do not compare it with real life.
Pre-release next door, The Princess Wants to Be Emperor: Mu Changge had the sort of life every woman in the world envied. Her father was the emperor, her mother the empress, and her full brother the crown prince. Even the little eunuchs sweeping the palace knew that the Third Princess was the apple of the emperor's, empress's, and crown prince's eye, the most doted-on child in the entire palace.
But after her elder brother died of illness, the words her father and mother said to her most often were: “Changge, if only you were a boy.”
If she had been a boy, her mother would not have died of grief. If she had been a boy, her father would not have wavered between his remaining sons after the crown prince's death, leading to brothers turning against one another and war breaking out across the kingdom once again.
One bright spring day, Mu Changge knelt before her father and personally asked him to arrange a marriage for her. The other party was a disabled man who did not have long to live.
Countless people whispered that she had gone mad. Her father had chosen for her a future husband who was a paragon of grace and talent, the foremost among the noble families, and her childhood friend with whom she had grown up as close as two peas in a pod.
But Mu Changge knew she was not mad. At sixteen, she had understood one thing: what she wanted was never a life of favor and a perfect marriage. What she wanted was power, the highest power of all.

Theme: Women should respect and love themselves
It was very sudden, that is to say...
Not only is it a bit anticlimactic, but it also fails to reflect what the copy says: King Shu doesn't dare to look down on her. In the penultimate chapter, King Shu's respect for the heroine is because she is the "princess", not because the heroine can really control him. If the heroine in the last chapter achieves the achievement in writing, it seems that it is because she is the emperor's biological mother...
Although the heroine longs for life outside, she has never been willing to be trapped in the capital and the palace. This is very true, but it seems that she has not achieved the goal of the copywriting...
This is too lively. Isn't the King of Shu just a breeding pig? He's so dirty. Dirty people won't feel dirty even if they look at dirty people. No wonder I think this marriage between the Chen family can still be concluded.
I guess I gave up after writing this because I thought this era was really boring.
Chu Xinlan brother and sister, because they are vested interests, why didn't their mother jump out when their mother Wei killed the late princess for herself and the Chen family? Liu Hanying is also very normal to them, which does not mean that she cannot fight for it, but Chu Xinlan is an educated and modern person, and it is very confusing that the pattern is limited to the backyard.
Everyone doubts whether this system is surnamed Chen.
You can't have any expectations for a person like the King of Shu. The heroine is right. She just needs to treat him as a boss and superior. She must do her job as the royal concubine of the King of Shu and she must not have any feelings for him.
The princess was harmed emotionally by Xinhui. How could this be worse than her previous life? She was described as having suffered so much in her previous life. How ordinary is she in this life? So aggrieved
I don't understand who the author considered as the heroine. She wrote it as if Zhou was the heroine and she ended it as soon as it was over.
What happened? I feel like the heroine hasn't even started to make drastic changes, so why is it over?
