After Cross-Dressing, I Became the Emperor's Beloved

Please add my next novel, The Sickly Villainous Immortal Venerable After Being Reborn, and my upcoming story, The Substitute Husband of the Crippled Crown Prince, to your favorites~ (Blurb) The White Moonlight System asks: Host, how do you win over a cold, ruthless tyrant? She Shumian: Thanks for asking. Put on a pretty dress, pretend to be his childhood white moonlight, save his life, be kind to him, smile at him, get jealous for him, warm his bed, and give him a baby (crossed out). Then, when the real white moonlight appears, leave him a cruel letter and run away with the baby (crossed out). But in the end, the tyrant caught him and brought him back. Seven days later, not only was he barely alive, he really did have a baby in his belly. Feeling his slightly rounded stomach, She Shumian fell silent for a long time. He packed his bags and ran away with the baby for real-- The tyrant Li Yuheng had kept his harem empty for years, making officials throughout the court suspect he had some hidden ailment and was incapable of intimacy. That is, until his birthday, when a beautiful woman from a foreign race was presented to him. Watching the pair become inseparable and openly affectionate, everyone suddenly remembered the rumor that the tyrant had a white moonlight in his heart, the only light in his bleak youth. Surely that woman was the one... Before long, rumors spread through the capital that the beauty at the tyrant's side was actually a man in women's clothing, with sinister intentions. To put an end to the rumors, the tyrant personally held down the beauty and lifted his crimson skirt, only to glimpse a section of pale jade-colored snake tail. "Mianmian is a snake demon?" the tyrant asked in a strange tone. The beauty, afraid to reveal that he was a man, nodded through his tears. Holding the tip of the tail in his hand, the tyrant, who was usually so solemn, slowly curled his lips into a smile. The tyrant was stingy and moody, making his heart a tough one to win. Touch his hand, favorability +1! Put an arm around his waist, favorability +2! Refuse to warm his bed, favorability -10! She Shumian had no choice but to reluctantly conjure a section of snow-white snake tail and offer it to the tyrant. "You can only touch it." "All right." Tyrant's favorability +5! Afterward, She Shumian did the math and decided it was still a bad deal. Reader's guide: 1. The love interests are completely devoted to each other. The white moonlight is the bottom. 2. The protagonist may lay eggs in the middle or later part of the story. 3. The bottom is a cross-dressing beauty. I changed a few details. 4. Cliche and melodramatic, with no court intrigue. If you don't like it, blame me, but please don't blame little Mianmian QAQ 5. A related story, The Cold Sword Venerable and the Charming Snake Demon, is on my author page. You don't need to read it to follow this one. 6. Since someone reported this, here's an explanation: in the final bonus scene, the snake tail is a real snake tail, not an intimate act. -- Upcoming: The Sickly Villainous Immortal Venerable After Being Reborn -- The Abyssal Depths is a xianxia novel about a beautiful but tragic protagonist. The protagonist, Xie Chongyuan, was originally a dark dragon from a Western fantasy world. After falling into the world of cultivation, he was sealed as a ferocious beast for a thousand years. After one of his clones escaped, he lost his memories and became a young beast, enduring countless hardships and suffering. One day, he regained his memories and power and became the dark ruler of the demon realm. The first thing he did was attack Lingxiao Sect and capture Zhong Litang, the villainous immortal venerable who had nearly ruined his escape plan, then humiliate him in every way. Zhong Litang: "..." - After dying together with Xie Chongyuan, Zhong Litang opened his eyes to find himself reborn in the past. Back then, while suppressing the "ferocious beast" trying to break through its seal, he was poisoned by fire, lost his cultivation, and watched his three thousand strands of black hair turn white. That was also the year Xie Chongyuan's clone escaped the seal, lost its memories, and became a young beast, suffering the agony of having its horns broken and wings torn off in an underground fighting arena. Beneath the young beast's fierce, glowing green eyes, Zhong Litang saw fear and a desperate longing to live, hidden beneath its battered, frail body. Dragging his sick body along and carrying his sword, Zhong Litang hurried to the arena. In the end, he couldn't help taking pity on the beast. - Immortal Venerable Zhongli was renowned throughout the Nine Provinces and Four Seas for his refined beauty and peerless skill with the qin and sword. He was a lofty, untouchable flower on a high peak, until illness left him frail and weak. People who had long harbored improper desires eagerly volunteered: "Immortal Venerable, I've heard dual cultivation can ease your fire poison. Would you like to try it?" Before Zhong Litang could even furrow his brow, the ugly-cute little beast beside him, with horns on its head, bat wings on its back, a big belly, and short legs, went completely berserk. It bared its teeth and howled, driving them away with terrifying ferocity. Zhong Litang: "...I didn't raise you for nothing." Afterward, he rewarded the little beast for protecting him with a piece of gleaming gold. - Until the day the fire poison flared up, and the white snow turned to red blossoms, their vivid color without end. Amid the shifting haze, Zhong Litang glimpsed the enormous, monstrous shadow behind the little beast. Only then did he understand: the beast wasn't protecting him. It was guarding its treasure. The greedy dark dragon laughed wickedly in his ear. "Immortal Venerable, you've realized it too late." - After regaining his memories and power, Xie Chongyuan became the mighty ruler of the demon realm, just as he had in his previous life. But this time, the immortal venerable he should have humiliated was carefully hidden away in a demon palace overflowing with gold and jewels, protected and cherished in every way. - Every evil dragon dreams of stealing away a princess. Xie Chongyuan was no different. But the one he stole was a one-of-a-kind immortal venerable. Theme: A fine sword is forged through hardship, and plum blossoms smell sweetest after enduring the bitter cold.
