My next book, The High-and-Mighty One's Days of Regret, is coming soon. Please add it to your collection
Su Qingqing, born to a family of imperial physicians, is imprisoned in the Yeting Palace after being implicated in a treason case. She's bullied for being "unruly."
The chief eunuch Nie Chuhuai pulls her, barely alive, from a pond.
He treats her injuries, gets her out of the Yeting Palace, arranges for her to join the Secret Police, and teaches her martial arts.
When she misses her family in the dead of night, he holds her and comforts her tenderly.
On the day she officially joins the Secret Police, Nie Chuhuai cuts ties with Su Qingqing, claiming that eunuchs of the inner court and Secret Police agents must not become too close.
Heartbroken, Su Qingqing becomes a coroner in the Secret Police ranks.
From then on, she spends her days dealing with corpses.
She also has to catch thieves, interrogate suspects, and match wits with criminals.
Her colleagues complain bitterly and groan about their endless work, but Su Qingqing never grumbles.
Everyone says Su Qingqing is made of iron and never gets tired. Only Su Qingqing knows that she has to work herself into a stupor every day to forget that tender embrace.
But no one knows that Nie Chuhuai visits her dreams every night, where he holds her tenderly.
Nie Chuhuai, chief eunuch to the crown prince, is compassionate, spends his days chanting Buddhist sutras, and has few worldly desires.
But he never thought that someone like him, a man without a manhood, could be so thoroughly seduced by a woman that he couldn't sleep night after night.
At first, she only had a nightmare and cried in her sleep.
Nie Chuhuai's parents died in a plague, so he understood her grief and held her to comfort her.
Who knew that later she'd boldly press her lips to his?
She was young and innocent, sweet and charming, while he was a eunuch. How could he ruin her youth?
But after they parted ways, she truly acted as though he didn't exist.
He couldn't forget her or let her go. He thought of her and dreamed of her every night.
Nie Chuhuai could only be selfish once and start treating her kindly again, but it seemed she had already given her heart to someone else.
After the crown prince ascends the throne, Nie Chuhuai takes charge of the Secret Police.
Everyone thinks Nie Chuhuai is still that compassionate, desireless flower atop a high peak.
Only he knows that he has fallen into madness: how dare she enter his heart, only to cruelly forget him?
&*Blurb*&
[Sweet and scheming fake empress dowager vs. rugged, rabid ex-husband]
*
The five years since her divorce from Li Mu have been the freest of Zhu Ningmei's life.
Looking back, she can only think how absurd and pathetic it all was.
She never had her father's love as a child and had no one to rely on. She thought marrying Li Mu, the Marquis of Zhongyong, meant she had found a good husband and could finally leave her hard days behind.
But after Li Mu had his way with her all night on their wedding night, he cried in his sleep, calling out again and again, "Xuemei, Xuemei."
Unwilling to be her sister's stand-in, she asked for a divorce on their wedding night.
*
It took Li Mu twelve years to go from a stable boy in the Zhu household to the Marquis of Zhongyong.
Zhu Xuemei helped him shed his status as a slave, gave him gold and silver, protected him on the battlefield, and helped him change his fate.
He lived up to her trust and finally made something of himself. He wanted to marry the woman he loved, but Zhu Xuemei had been empress for years. Unable to have her, he settled for the next best thing and married her younger sister, Zhu Ningmei.
Unfortunately, Zhu Ningmei despised him for being a horseman. On the second day of their marriage, she asked for a divorce.
*
Zhu Ningmei lives freely in the mountains, cultivating the Dao.
Then one day, her elder brother kneels before her and begs her to return to the capital, impersonate the empress dowager, and appease Li Mu.
The empress dowager is Li Mu's beloved, as well as Zhu Ningmei's own elder sister. The two women look remarkably alike.
After the late emperor dies, Li Mu rebels, holding the emperor hostage to control the feudal lords. His mad obsession turns bloody as he marches on the empress dowager's bedchamber.
But the empress dowager has vanished. Unable to find the woman he loves, Li Mu goes berserk and raises his butcher's blade. The young emperor's life hangs in the balance.
Unable to bear seeing her brother in such a bind, Zhu Ningmei agrees to return to the capital and impersonate the empress dowager. When she sees Li Mu again, she remembers the humiliation and absurdity of their wedding night.
He kneels before her in submission, calls her Empress Dowager, obeys her every command, and is willing to be her loyal dog.
Zhu Ningmei lifts his chin with the tip of her foot and says coldly, "Get out!"
*
When her identity as the fake empress dowager is exposed, Zhu Ningmei is locked away in the palace. She bites her lip and silently endures his revenge.
Li Mu's lips are bitten and streaked with blood, but the faint pain only excites him. His smile is bloodthirsty and cruel: anyone who toys with him must pay the price.
*
The real empress dowager, Zhu Xuemei, returns to the palace. Her impersonator, Zhu Ningmei, has fulfilled her duty and is finally free to leave. Li Mu looks at the woman he has loved for nearly twenty years and feels that she is a stranger.
He can say with certainty that he has no romantic feelings for Zhu Xuemei.
Zhu Xuemei tells Li Mu two things. First, the one who helped you shed your status as a slave and protected you on the battlefield was my younger sister, Zhu Ningmei.
Second, the bastard you spoke of is the daughter she bore you.
*
A second-chance romance, with the love story beginning only after their divorce.
Li Mu thinks the woman he's trying to win over is his first love, whose husband has died. But in their daily life together, he falls for his ex-wife, who is living under a secret identity.
Zhu Ningmei uses her identity as the empress dowager to enjoy Li Mu's false affection, while taking the opportunity to vent her hatred on him.
Content warnings:
1. One-on-one romance.
2. The male lead belongs to the female lead in body and soul.
3. Happy ending.
4. Emotion-driven story. The author is currently fond of stories where the male lead loves the female lead so much that he goes mad and loses his mind. This whole story came about because the author wanted to indulge in that particular flavor.
Theme: Love is an obsession, and it is eternal.
In fact, I think my sister is right here. Once the little emperor grows up, the fate of the male protagonist and the female protagonist will not be good. The male protagonist is a powerful minister, and the female protagonist is still the queen mother. Judging from the way most emperors treat powerful ministers, they will not end well. Personally, I feel that neither Lu Ying nor the emperor's brother-in-law actually love that much. Who is a good person who has true love and has a child with someone else? Is this a grudge? It's really hypocritical. The treatment here is really average. The male lead usually has to be clean, right? As a result, he has a lot of concubines and sons. He has the ability to let the heroine ascend the throne. Now, he has determined that the heroine is a holy mother (I am not saying that, the heroine really gives me the feeling of a holy mother, repaying evil with kindness). He asked the heroine to raise his son and assist his son, because the hero has soldiers, so he can let him The son is in a stable position. In fact, I guessed when the author was halfway through writing that this book would not be enjoyable. The female character is too weak. The heroine is the protagonist, but she is always unhappy, so the readers will not be happy, so there are probably very few people who will read it. In fact, the author's writing is not bad. If it can be more It would be better to focus on the female protagonist's feelings. After reading this book, I really felt that the male protagonist, the second male lead, sister Xia Shao and others have been slowly "eating" the female protagonist. She has been giving, which is quite frustrating. I myself like to watch the crematorium of Chasing Wife, but there is really no crematorium here, and the male protagonist is really abused. The parts are the chapters where he lost his memory, and they are far from the level of the crematorium. I look forward to the follow-up episode to torture the male protagonist severely. I want to see the female protagonist doubting the male protagonist every day, and then the male protagonist explains countless times to no avail. I can only watch the female protagonist put her mind on other people and then break her defense.
There are too few plots about the male protagonist's abuse, and the female protagonist's abuse for 70 chapters. As a result, there are only 20 chapters about the abuse of the male protagonist. And the crematorium is not busy enough. Now everyone likes to watch the crematorium, not the abuse of women. If the crematorium is enough to abuse the male protagonist, there should be a lot more people watching [covering face and laughing] In fact, the writing and plot are not bad, but the heroine's sister and the heroine's maid are too disgusting. I watch the crematorium to feel happy, not a coward. I hope the author can work hard.
Can the heroine also get married to other people? This chapter seems so frustrating. I still can't accept that the hero has a son on the surface, and married the heroine's maid after leaving. The hero is unclean in the eyes of outsiders, and an unclean reputation is also a kind of uncleanness. And is there anyone here who is worthy of the heroine? How cool, right? The heroine should at least let the person who hurt her experience her pain?
The masochistic nature of the heroine is fully demonstrated again. After being abused like this by her sister and the male protagonist, she could forgive him with just a few soft words. The male protagonist really wanted to be treated well, and he was given benefits after being whipped forty times. Sure enough, the only person who is cremated in the book is the female protagonist. The male protagonist and his sister are both fans of fires. They are a match made in heaven, and they are friends of life and death who work together to run the crematorium. Just let the heroine go. Let her escape from the crematorium of this male protagonist and his sister. Otherwise, those life-and-death friends who love the country and the people will burn her into ashes in the next life.
This is good, waiting to torture the male protagonist [Compare your heart]
The above is true, I also feel that I have begun to abuse the heroine, and when will I finally deal with my sister and Xia Shao? These two made me angry. Besides, what should I do with the hero's son?
Why is my sister so vicious? He has remained unchanged for decades and never forgets to stab his sister in the heart.
I feel like I still can't understand Xia Shao [covering her face and laughing and crying] The heroine has been being backstabbed by the people around her, but she is still nice to the people around her. The heroine's sister said she is the big heroine but she keeps hurting this sister. I have never seen such a big heroine. When will I kill these people? It's not only the hero's problem that makes the heroine what she is today, aren't these people around her also accomplices? Shouldn't only the male protagonist enter the crematorium? Looking forward to the following plot [Compare Heart]
We are really not targeting the second female lead here. We are not saying that the second female lead cannot be bad, have her own plans, and cannot use her own plans. She can be bad, she can be indifferent, and she can even add fuel to the flames. However, she cannot help but recognize her mistakes, cannot help but be punished, and must make amends. The heroine is as bitter as a dumpling. She does whatever her sister says. After everyone torments the heroine, the second heroine continues to have the power to control life and death. I can't even see how guilty she is towards the heroine? Or does she not feel guilty at all? Love is not said with words, but seen with actions. The author keeps saying that the second heroine loves the heroine, but what is she doing? He asked his sister to be his substitute, verbally suppressed and insulted, subdued the male protagonist and asked the female protagonist to take revenge, but it was written as if the male protagonist was flirting with the second female protagonist, and the female protagonist was living a miserable life outside without anyone caring about her. Either just create a villain, or don't use vain language to whitewash her.
My sister looks so white after washing! It turns out that my sister is the best person in the book who is both wise and courageous, patriotic and loves her country, but nothing can stop her from loving her sister the most! Under such a big banner, I tortured my sister for half my life, and then revealed that she is actually a big heroine who doesn't take my sister's love brain seriously. She was washed until she was white. By the way, it was revealed that the hero and his sister have been in the same room for several years and have been life-or-death friends. It doesn't make sense not to change the heroine! The heroine is a love brain anyway, and she is willing to torture herself in order not to abuse the hero, so she should give way to her sister who is so white that she shines.
