Also known as: I Fell in Love with the Prince's Stand-In

Xiao Jinyu had always thought that being a general, spending her life fighting battles and protecting her country, would be enough. She never imagined she would fall in love with someone like him.

She first saw him at court, when she was being rewarded for leading the Northern Border Army to utterly defeat Beirou. He was her betrothed, the famous Prince Rui, Song Yunting.

The Prince Rui of legend was widely read, calculating, cold, and an unparalleled genius.

At the time, she thought that marrying Prince Rui was an imperial decree that could not be disobeyed. Since she couldn't defy the decree, they could simply go their separate ways after the wedding.

After they married, Xiao Jinyu discovered that Song Yunting was lazy, hated studying, and loved to play. He had no ambition at all, but somehow always managed to make her happy.

He was an excellent cook, always coming up with new ways to make all sorts of delicious dishes for her.

He knew massage techniques and liked to knead her acupoints with nimble fingers, easing the old injury in her leg.

He was always chattering away in front of her, with plenty of tricks to get close to her.

He was willing to shield her from every danger, even at the cost of his own life.

One day, Xiao Jinyu led her troops to surround a bandit. He moved like the wind and wielded his sword in an unpredictable manner. If he wished, he could slit Xiao Jinyu's throat in an instant.

Xiao Jinyu drew her sword. "Who are you, really?"

Song Yunting lowered his sword. "Jin Xiaoyu, I... I'm actually an impostor."

His martial arts were nearly the best in the world, and his identity was a closely guarded secret. To hide it, he had concealed his true face beneath a mask for nearly twenty years.

He was afflicted with a poisonous Gu, covered in blood, and had killed countless people.

She thought she would never see him again, but late one night, as Xiao Jinyu undressed and was about to climb into bed, she saw a man lying in the covers, his clothes disheveled and his shoulders bare.

His voice was soft and sweet, and his peach-blossom eyes bewitched her.

"Jin Xiaoyu, I can't sleep without you by my side!"

----- Next Book: She's the Tyrant's White Moonlight -----

Chu Nian, the frail and beautiful daughter of the Vice Minister of Revenue, had yet to marry, but her reputation for beauty had already reached the palace. The tyrant Su Yu took a fancy to her and issued an imperial decree ordering her to enter the palace.

Su Yu seized power and ascended the throne as a young man. He had always been wanton and brutal, cold and merciless, and feared by all.

Chu Nian thought her life was as good as over.

On a brilliantly sunny day, Chu Nian entered the palace in full ceremonial dress. That very night, she was bathed and made up, then wrapped in a blanket and sent to Su Yu's bedchamber.

Chu Nian clutched the blanket around herself and huddled in a corner, watching the young tyrant approach step by step. Tears glimmered in her eyes, making her look all the more pitiful.

"Am I really that frightening?"

The tyrant of the rumors spoke gently and behaved like a refined scholar, a lovely curve on his lips.

Chu Nian timidly looked at the man before her. This tyrant was rather different from the rumors. He actually seemed quite nice!

Behind the red curtains, they shared a tender, passionate night. When Chu Nian awoke, she saw the young tyrant sitting obediently on the bed, looking at her with eyes brimming with springtime sweetness. In a soft, sugary voice, he said, "Sister, A Yu is hungry. I want meat!"

Only then did Chu Nian learn that, as a child, Su Yu had watched his parents die before his eyes, then been imprisoned in a narrow passage between the palace walls, surviving on scraps and spoiled food for two years. After escaping the palace, he spent ten years gathering power and slaughtering his way across the land, climbing to the throne over a sea of blood and corpses.

Those experiences left him with a secret unknown to the world: hidden within his body was the personality of a five-year-old child, mischievous, clingy, and greedy for food.

Chu Nian had thought she would be killed to keep the secret, like everyone else who discovered it. Instead, Su Yu only grew more devoted to her.

"That wicked consort is ruining the country! The Great Cheng dynasty will be destroyed by Chu Nian sooner or later!"

"A Nian, Su Yu is cold-blooded and ruthless. He's no good for you. If you'll let me, I'll risk my life to take you far away!"

Everyone called Su Yu incompetent and brutal, but Chu Nian always thought him wise and mighty, a rare good ruler.

"I've set foot in hell. Everyone in the world fears me and wants to carve me up with a knife. Aren't you afraid?"

Chu Nian lifted her head, looked at the gloomy, handsome man before her, and threw herself into his arms.

"I'm not afraid. His Majesty is a good person, the very best person in the world!"
