Coming next: (After Faking Her Death, the Emperor Pursues His Wife to the Crematorium)
Blurb for the upcoming story: Guan Mingyue, the legitimate daughter of Prince Yong'an of the capital, is breathtakingly beautiful, born to a noble family, and doted on by her parents. Just after coming of age, she becomes the empress of Chu Wangshu.
But everyone says she forced her way onto the throne through her family's influence, and that Chu Wangshu loves her cousin, not her.
To prove herself worthy of the position, Guan Mingyue puts away her spoiled ways and learns to be cautious in everything. Gradually, she becomes dignified and composed.
Sadly, no matter how hard she tries, Chu Wangshu remains cold toward her, and all the capital's powerful families laugh at her.
Her cousin, on the other hand, seems to be adored by everyone no matter what she does. Even Chu Wangshu treats her differently.
The day before her cousin is to enter the palace, Guan Mingyue finally snaps. She hurls the imperial seal to the ground and cries, "Whoever wants to be empress can have the job! I'm done!"
Emperor Wu of Great Chu, Chu Wangshu, is stunningly handsome, a master of letters and arms, and skilled in the art of rulership. He is cold-hearted and unfeeling.
The empress he wanted was always supposed to be the Guan Mingyue of today: dignified and gracious, not the childish, ignorant girl she used to be.
That was what he always believed.
Until a great fire engulfed Kunning Palace, and Empress Guan Mingyue perished in the flames.
All of Great Chu knew that the emperor had never liked the empress, so her death should have meant nothing to him.
But no one expected this solemn, aloof emperor to go mad with grief upon hearing that Guan Mingyue had died, rushing into the flames to find her.
Blurb for this story
Xu Yutang, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo in the capital, has a face as pale and delicate as a pear blossom, radiant as spring and bright as the autumn moon.
She has been born to privilege and doted on by her parents since childhood. Just after coming of age, she marries Chen Shen and becomes his empress.
But everyone says she stole the position, and that Chen Shen wanted her cousin to be empress, not her.
To prove herself worthy of the throne, Xu Yutang puts away her spoiled ways, growing more composed and dignified by the day. She is even careful and cautious in everything she does.
Sadly, Chen Shen's gaze stays icy, and all the capital's aristocrats laugh at her.
Her cousin, on the other hand, seems to win everyone's affection without lifting a finger. Even Chen Shen treats her differently.
At last, on the day her cousin enters the palace, Xu Yutang snaps and hurls the phoenix seal to the ground. "Fine, fine! I'm done being empress. Whoever wants the job can have it!"
Emperor Wu of Great Xian, Chen Shen, is peerlessly handsome but cold and unkind.
He watches Xu Yutang grow more dignified and aloof day by day. Yet every morning, when they wake in the same bed, he turns straight to state affairs, ignoring her.
He never imagined that his formerly proper empress would dare to wear a veil and go out to watch her former fiance, now the top-ranked scholar, parade through the streets on horseback. Or that she would hand all the affairs of the inner palace to her cousin and ask to abdicate!
Xu Yutang's outrageous actions leave Chen Shen unable to sit still. He hurries off to find her, but after days apart, she shows no sign of being miserable without him. Instead, she is smiling brightly as she chats with that handsome top-ranked scholar.
Chen Shen: !!!

Currently serializing: The Possessive Crown Prince's Daily Pursuit of His Wife
No one knows that Sun Yuwan, daughter of a fifth-rank deputy minister, gave herself to Crown Prince Li Weichuan.
A deputy minister's daughter was hardly fit to become crown princess. But Sun Yuwan saw the prince just once and gave him her whole heart, never to take it back.
She loved him with all her heart. When he was poisoned, she personally tested the medicine for him. Her whole body trembled from the pain, but just one glance from him made it seem to disappear.
Even though she disliked how the prince was always smiling at his cousin, when a fire swept toward them, she instinctively shielded the cousin so she wouldn't be hurt.
Weichuan would surely come to see how good and sincere she was.
Sun Yuwan was lying in bed, nearly dying from the pain, when she learned that Li Weichuan had asked the emperor to arrange his marriage to his cousin.
She had accompanied him without status or title, seen the mountains and rivers with him, and endured long, bitter nights. Yet in the end, she remained the one stain on his life.
She could never see the light of day.
The Crown Prince's wedding fills the whole imperial capital with celebration. Perhaps the emperor is in high spirits too, for he publicly enfeoffs Sun Yuwan as Princess Yong'an.
But no one comes to accept the honor.
A eunuch hurries over and reports that Sun Yuwan died last night from the pain of her burns.
Everyone sees the prince, usually as steady as a pine, go weak in the knees, unable even to run.
He collapses to the ground, raving as he murmurs, "No, she can't be dead. How could someone so lowly, with such a tough life, die?"

I don't understand. Is there really something wrong with someone that would fall in love with someone who has been cold-blooded and violent to them for more than ten years? The male protagonist of the co-author likes other people's pride, but also wants them to be obedient. Why is he training dogs here?! It's not cheating that's considered a scumbag. Ruining other people's lives because of personal feelings is not a scumbag. It's a scumbag. What we mean is that we can still be together when we don't understand each other. When we see him, won't we think of the ten years of life we wasted when we see him? What we mean is, if you encounter this kind of thing in real life, run away quickly and run with the train on your back. Does this kind of person deserve to be liked?
Is this enough? What the hell
So you didn't go back to the palace after all, right?
This is too deliberate. A girl from an aristocratic family only has a maid when she goes out to a banquet. She walks the maid on the street alone. When she knows that someone is following her, she runs into the alley alone without any backup. The male protagonist appears at the critical moment just so that the two of them can come together once and maybe win a lottery and have a baby later...
Chen Shen is a very simple man and is not suitable for the life of a powerful person in the capital. He is not suitable for marrying a noble girl from the capital.
The ending was so hasty...
The male protagonist has never trusted the female protagonist. Don't insult the word infatuation. He hides everything from the female protagonist. He has so many concubines and concubines, which makes the female protagonist feel very wronged. Only men who have no ability will take concubines to hide what they want to do.
What do you mean by the eternal queen, bah?
Dog Emperor! Dog Emperor!
Ah? Forced double C, right?
