Blurb:

Jiang Yao is the fifth empress of the Great Zhou dynasty, but also the puppet of the treacherous official Pei Yanqing.

The timid little puppet empress, afraid of dying, trembles as she struggles to survive under the treacherous official's thumb.

One day, the official strides into her bedchamber with a sword, his face dark. The little empress turns pale, thinking he has finally decided to usurp the throne and rebel.

Unexpectedly, he sits on the imperial bed and uses his sword to lift her slipping dragon robe. He bends down with a low laugh, his burning breath brushing her face.

He says, "It's late. Your subject is going to bed."

Knowing her place, the little empress gets up, ready to leave and let the official have the bed.

Instead, he reaches out and pulls her back. "Your Majesty, join me."

Puppet Empress VS rebellious traitor

Upcoming book: The Princess and the Hunter

Blurb One:

Princess Zhaoyang, Xue Zhaofu, is hunted down and jumps off a cliff. She is rescued by Xie Chen, a hunter from Taoyuan Town.

To conceal her identity, she marries Xie Chen.

Then, one rainy night three years later, Xue Zhaofu climbs into a carriage and disappears from Taoyuan Town forever.

Back in the capital, Xue Zhaofu regains power, supports her nephew's ascension to the throne, and governs from behind the curtain. At her side is her future husband, who has waited for her in the capital for three years and never abandoned her.

Yet on sleepless nights, she always remembers the man who softly coaxed her to sleep.

Later, she sends someone to Taoyuan Town to find out what has become of him.

The spy returns with news that Taoyuan Town was struck by a natural disaster and is now deserted.

Xue Zhaofu falls gravely ill upon hearing this. Her future husband seizes the chance to strip her of power, take control of the court, and even force her to marry him.

On her wedding day, before she can even leave the princess's residence in her phoenix coronet and embroidered wedding robe, urgent news arrives that a rebellion has broken out.

The traitorous rebel leading it is none other than the husband she abandoned in Taoyuan Town,

Xie Chen.

Xue Zhaofu thinks he has finally come for revenge.

Later, on the day his forces reach the city walls, he walks toward her step by step, sword in hand, under the gaze of the assembled ministers and soldiers.

Amid the flash of blades, she closes her eyes.

But the man pulls her fiercely into his arms. His voice is low and restrained. "A Fu, I'm here."

Blurb Two:

Xie Chen picks up a sweet young woman.

He treasures her above all else.

For her, he would brave any danger.

So even if it means defying the whole world and being despised by everyone, he will overthrow the court and place the vast realm she desires into her hands himself.

If he becomes emperor, she will be empress.

If she becomes emperor, he will be her minister.

"And what if I am only a woman?"

"Then I'll be your man."

Both are sexually inexperienced. Sweet romance.

Sweet romance, both are sexually inexperienced.
