My other novel, The Southern Qing Records of Wind and Moon, is now underway. Come check it out, everyone! It's a battle of wits between a cool, straightforward woman and a lovesick, brooding man.
The world is full of fools, and fools make trouble for themselves. In the end, no one can escape love.
Meeting Ye Ruyu was Lin Wanyu's blindness in the first half of her life. Marrying Zheng Xuan was her redemption in the second half. At least, until the twelve tolls of the funeral bell rang, her faith never wavered.
When they were young, the eldest princess was a goddess in the eyes of all the noble young ladies of the capital. They treated her every word as sacred decree.
Women are so easily moved by love. Give it up, and you can be invincible.
But even a goddess can be wrong. The sword the eldest princess raised against her consort severed more than their love. It took her life as well.
Many years later, Jiang Niaoluo, now Empress Dowager of Northern Yan, gazed south from a high place. She had done exactly as the eldest princess had said, cutting herself off from love.
So why was all she held in her hands a dream in a mirror...
P.S. The novel has three parts: Wanyu's story, Niaoluo's story, and Feiyun's story. There are happy moments and sad ones, with plenty of heartbreak mixed in.
Ending: It probably won't be a happy one.
If you don't like heartbreaking stories, you can browse my completed novels instead. They all have happy endings, so take your pick.
Blurb for The Southern Qing Records of Wind and Moon:
They say Xue, the lady of Yong'an Alley, must have had incredible luck. She only stepped out to dump the chamber pot one night, and came back with a handsome young man as pretty as a flower.
A few of the alley's bandit women tried to barge in and have a look, but the tiny courtyard seemed to stretch on forever. When they got home, they'd all gone mad.
So the rumors grew wilder and wilder. Everyone said that Xue, who made her living in such a filthy place, must have come into contact with something unclean. How else could there be such a beautiful young man? He had to be some mountain spirit or monster in disguise, planning to suck her dry of every drop of blood.
She didn't know whether he meant to drain her blood, but she did know he was going to empty her purse.
Today, he wanted sweet rice cakes from the eastern part of town. Tomorrow, he wanted the Eight-Treasure Duck from Tianxiang House. The day after that, it was a snow-white silk robe from White Crane Tower, paired with a full set of pear-blossom hairpins.
After playing along for days, Xue Nanyu looked at her dwindling savings and finally snapped.
“Master, please think it over. How about you go fleece someone else?”
Both the male and female leads have hidden identities. The story starts in the martial world and later moves to the imperial capital. If you're impatient, save it for later and let the chapters pile up!
The heroine may have other men, but in the end, both her heart and body belong to the hero.
The completed novel Wanyan is a prequel.

Theme: All beings are equal before love!
Pre-collection of Wen Dada, "Evil Slave", Green Tea Little Male Slave Routine Sect Master Sister, welcome to hook up and collect. Liu Feifei, the senior sister of Kaiyang Sect, went down the mountain to buy rice grains. Instead of buying rice grains, she bought a pretty-faced little slave and brought her back. This little slave has a delicate body and is good at everything. He is the best in green tea. Make a fire and burn your hands. Peel a carrot and hurt your hands. Even if you ask him to dig some wild vegetables, he will fall down. For this reason, Liu Feifei, who had always been careless, scolded her senior brothers and sisters so much that she bought the little slave as an ancestor. Zhou Chaomu is an evil ghost who climbed out of the Hell of Hell. Liu Feifei is his only salvation in this world. He abandoned all future lives and only wanted to be with her in this life. Therefore, ghosts come to kill ghosts, gods come to kill gods, and anyone who blocks his way will be killed. He cleared all obstacles in advance just to get to her side. No one can hurt her, including himself. The male and female protagonists are twins, and the female protagonist slowly regains her memory later on. I borrowed Ye Ruyu's Kaiyang Sect, but it actually doesn't matter much.
