When Ming Zhi woke from a dream, she realized she had fallen into a trap her own father had set. If she didn't escape, she would be offered to a powerful man as a concubine, then abused to death.

In desperation, she turned to someone for help, only to stumble into the clutches of the even more terrifying Prince Regent.

-

After meeting her, her lovely image haunted Zhou Sihuan's dreams night after night, and he couldn't help developing feelings he shouldn't have.

He tried to restrain himself again and again, but could not resist when the woman came to him of her own accord, timidly pleading, "I beg Your Highness to take pity on me..."

No one knew the Prince Regent's secret. He avoided women because he feared his hidden ailment might get out of control.

But Ming Zhi was obedient, docile, and innocent, and would only depend on him. She was just a little bird, after all. Keeping her around wouldn't be so bad.

But she still deceived him.

After using the Prince Regent to escape her previous life, Ming Zhi staged a perfect death in front of his trusted subordinates.

She left the capital for a border town, where at last she could live a peaceful life with the one she loved.

But her wedding night became a nightmare. She watched her groom get killed, everything before her eyes turning scarlet.

When she woke from her faint, golden bracelets were bound tightly around her wrists. The man stroked every inch of her face with his fingertips. "He touched you, so he deserved to die..."

[A delicate yet resilient, calculating beauty x a dark, restrained, and unhinged Prince Regent]

Reading Guide:

1. The male lead restrains himself at first, then gradually turns dark and unhinged.

2. Expect melodrama and scenes of forceful possession.

3. Both leads are virgins. The male lead only loves the female lead, from beginning to end.

4. It leans toward Mary Sue-style fantasy. The female lead is a peerless beauty. Becoming his mistress is forced by circumstance, not a choice she makes willingly.

The Green Tea Concubine Is Stolen Away

Jiang Lin is the heir of the Duke's estate, the Emperor's own nephew, and the most sought-after husband in the capital.

The Lu family came to a banquet at the Duke's estate to arrange a marriage between their legitimate daughter and Jiang Lin. But when he saw the family, he took an interest in someone else: not the Lu family's legitimate eldest daughter, who was his social equal, but the gentle, alluring, and ethereally beautiful illegitimate daughter, Lu Xueyuan, who was always by her side.

They had met before, amid a raging inferno.

Only later did he learn that the young woman was already engaged, to her maternal cousin.

He had been born to wealth and privilege, and there was nothing he couldn't have.

Including her.

So what if she was engaged? He could still take her for himself...

,

Though Lu Xueyuan was an illegitimate daughter of the Lu family, she was quite favored. The reason was simple: as children, her legitimate mother and half-sister had bullied her for being weak and made her life miserable.

After that, she only had to put in a little effort to earn her father's love and her grandmother's favor.

At the Lantern Festival banquet, a fire swept through half a street. She watched an elegant, noble young man in fine clothes charge into the flames, bringing his subordinates to rescue everyone on the street. From that moment on, the young girl's heart was lost to him forever.

Even after learning that he had been promised to her half-sister, and that Jiang Lin was the man countless noblewomen had failed to win over, Lu Xueyuan was undaunted. She continued to find every opportunity to catch his eye.

Step by step, she edged out every noblewoman in the capital and became the heir of the Duke's estate's wife.

On their wedding day

Lu Xueyuan sat pondering. The whole journey had seemed a little too smooth.

By candlelight, her exceptionally handsome groom gently lifted her red veil, his eyes blazing. "Xueyuan, I've finally married you."

Lu Xueyuan: Huh???

I Raised a Black-Hearted Hostage Prince

When she was seven, her father brought back from an imperial lodge the son born to his Empress and one of her maids.

Wanning stood nearby, watching him coldly.

The little prince was so pale he looked sickly. He timidly called her, "Elder Sister..."

Wanning turned and glared at him. "You have no right to call me that."

The Empress had no children of her own, so the little prince was entered into her family register and became Wanning's publicly acknowledged younger brother.

"If you can't ride or shoot, what kind of man are you?"

"The weak get bullied. You're so useless, you deserve it..."

"You're lowborn for life. Don't look at me like that."

Every word she spoke was harsh, and she always held herself above him. Yet when the other princes picked on him, she slapped one of them. The Emperor's most doted-on princess coolly wiped her hand, beautiful and proud. "Only I get to bully him. Who do you think you are?"

-

One day, a case from more than a decade ago came to light. It turned out the prince from the imperial lodge had long ago been replaced by the hostage prince from the Southern Kingdom, who had supposedly died on the road. He had been lying low for ten years, had already built up his strength, and had escaped the capital.

Wanning smiled as if she had never had a younger brother, and went on living a carefree, debauched life.

The Southern Kingdom's cavalry breached the city gates and laid siege to the capital. As the only unmarried princess, Wanning was offered up by the Emperor for a political marriage.

Zhou Wanning looked up in disbelief. "That's the younger brother I've raised for ten years! I won't go!"

Inside the military tent, Wanning was wrapped in a soft blanket, her father's words echoing in her mind: "He wants you."

In the gloom, the Crown Prince of the Southern Kingdom strode in, tall and imposing, his gaze pressing down on her. He looked nothing like the pure, obedient boy he had once been.

He leaned down and gripped her chin, every bit as arrogant as she used to be. His dark eyes roamed over her snow-white skin and red lips. "Long time no see."

"Elder Sister."

He had hidden in the darkness, where the most despicable desire had taken root.
