Upcoming historical romance: Lotus in Bloom
Synopsis
Tags: Married first, love later; light redemption; bickering couple; devotion to country and family
Character setup: Gorgeous, theatrical playwright empress VS cool, reserved monk emperor
-
Qian Wangshu's father is the Duke of Su of Nantang.
Her father is a powerful minister.
He is so powerful that the entire court fears him, even the emperor.
The emperor is a monk whom Qian Wangshu's father dragged out of Yunlin Temple and installed on the throne.
Having a Buddhist monk rule the country is unprecedented in the Central Plains, but Qian Wangshu's father pulled it off because everyone fears him.
Qian Wangshu fears him too, so she obeyed his orders and became empress.
Being empress was never her dream. Her ultimate goal in life is to write an extraordinary play, hire the most famous performers in the city to act in it, make a sensation, and secure her place as Lin'an's top playwright for generations to come.
But her father made her empress, cutting off her path to fortune and assigning her a list of KPIs.
One: Secure her place as empress.
Two: Persuade the emperor to leave the monastic life.
Three: Give birth to the emperor's eldest son.
With three mountains pressing down on her without mercy, Qian Wangshu felt her head spin.
Alas, my life is so hard. When will I ever get back to my old profession?

(At first)
The Emperor sat at the foot of the bed in monk's robes, endlessly turning the Buddhist beads in his hand.
The Empress sat at the head of the bed in her wedding dress, her arm aching from holding up her round fan.
Empress: Your Majesty, you should lift my veil now.
Emperor: Amitabha. I am a monk. Please attend to it yourself, honored lady.
Empress: Your Majesty, we've already held the wedding ceremony. We are husband and wife.
Emperor: Amitabha. I am a monk and cannot take a wife. This is merely a temporary measure.
Empress: Then what the hell do you want?
Emperor: Since I have taken you as my empress, from now on we will regard each other as colleagues. The outer court and inner palace will keep to themselves.
-
(In the end)
The Emperor waited outside Lefeng Tower in full armor, with the phoenix palanquin beside him, waiting devoutly.
The Empress sat inside Lefeng Tower in her maternity clothes, happily cracking melon seeds.
Empress: I wonder what brings Your Majesty here?
Emperor: A Shu, I'm here to take you home.
Empress: The children and I are doing well at my parents' home, so there's no need for Your Majesty to trouble yourself.
Emperor: The flowers have bloomed on the pond. You can take your time coming home.

Reader's notes: One-on-one romance, sweet, happy ending. Set in an imaginary dynasty, with customs mostly inspired by the Song dynasty. Please don't scrutinize the historical details; just enjoy the story (emphasis added).
Content warnings: The heroine is forward and direct, and not a perfect character. The hero is a slow-burn, black-bellied sweetheart, and not a perfect character. The supporting female character Ye Langlang is a modern transmigrator and a drama lover.

Finished scattering flowers, little Nianshu is so cute
From the beginning of the article to the end, I witnessed that the story was updated bit by bit, and Wangshu and the little monk finally achieved positive results! I have to say it's really emotional. I feel that the secondary male and female protagonists are really good to drink. Go up to the top and brush it lightly.
What's the point? Your mother was killed by you under the coercion of your father and with the monks watching and threatening you.
Update ah ah ah ah ah ah ah, please?
When will we have more abuse? (Bad smile jpg.) The child wants to see more abuse.
Ah and H, hahaha, let's just say that this monk finally, hahahahahaha, finally expressed his feelings. The monk is also a straightforward person.
The two of them are so sweet!!!
The young couple are causing trouble, hehehe
