Blurb:

Yaoyao is avoiding him.

He seems like an elegant, easygoing gentleman, but inside he's rather despicable, stopping at nothing to make her give up resisting.

At a palace banquet one night, the emperor personally arranged a marriage for him in recognition of his distinguished military service, then named her as his bride.

Yaoyao turned her head away, refusing to look at him.

But she heard him say, "I don't like her. She mustn't be made to suffer for my sake."

Yaoyao was delighted. "Though we are distant relatives, my lord is my uncle. My uncle may not like his niece, but his niece looks up to him."

Then she saw him wink mischievously. As she offered him a toast, he stroked the girl's soft hand and drained his cup.

Later, the heir of Prince Ruyang came to ask for her hand in marriage.

But the Marquis of Huairou simply snatched the girl away and hid her in his own residence.

Yaoyao was still just a young girl, and she was so frightened she cried until her eyes were red. In a timid voice, she called him, "Uncle."

"Uncle... what will it take for you to let me go?"

He knelt down to meet her eyes, sliding two fingers along the edge of her loose collar. "Why are you running away?"

His manner was intimate and suggestive as he leaned closer to her lips. "The more you cry and struggle, the more your uncle wants to cherish you..."

Blurb for "Secretly Carrying the Marquis's Baby":

The realm was divided into three, with the Chen family of Zhao holding the greatest power.

One day, the Marquis of Zhao led his army into battle, and Zhao's forces swept through ten cities of Yan. After their great victory, the ruler of Yan offered two beauties in a bid for peace.

The eldest son of the Donghua Earl, a man surnamed Liu, had been friends with the Marquis of Zhao since they were young. After the victory feast, Liu claimed to be ill and stayed behind. The Marquis of Zhao didn't want to enjoy the beauties alone, so, drunk, he brought one to Liu's tent to share.

In a haze, he made love with the delicate beauty in the tent. The Marquis of Zhao thought her hair and supple waist were utterly enchanting. No wonder the beauty from Yan was so alluring.

The next day, Brother Liu coldly told him to leave. Knowing it had been improper to take over his friend's tent and behave so outrageously, the Marquis of Zhao hurried to apologize.

"Last night was wonderful. If you don't mind, Brother Liu, I'll leave this one with you too, as an apology."

She flushed with anger and told him to get out.

But the Marquis of Zhao thought she had the same seductive charm as the beauty from the previous night, and from then on, his eyes lingered on her day after day.

She didn't dare stay by the Marquis of Zhao's side any longer. Using the excuse of caring for her grandmother, she hired a carriage and fled back to the countryside. The Marquis of Zhao was so obsessed with her that he rode after the carriage, then teased her for being spoiled.

"We rode thousands of miles on horseback during the campaign. Now that you're going home to visit your grandmother, why take a carriage?"

He insisted on climbing inside and squeezing in beside her, only to suddenly see her slightly swollen belly, her waist sash untied...

Blurb for "The Old Scheme at Xiling":

The Grand Academician Qi Rumin left behind two great accomplishments that would be praised by later generations.

Among his students, one was the current Third Prince, a man capable of pacifying the realm with his writings and securing it with his sword. Another was a vice minister of the Ministry of Justice, who was determined to clear every unjust case in the land. And then there was his daughter, Qi Yunzhi, peerless in both talent and beauty, whose fame resounded throughout the realm.

The Third Prince had long admired Yunzhi's talent. When the emperor died, Qi Rumin disappeared along with the imperial seal. In the scramble to find the national treasure, his daughter Qi Yunzhi became the focus of everyone's attention.

The vice minister of the Ministry of Justice wanted to find a safe place for Yunzhi. He devised a plan and secretly sent her to the Third Prince's residence, where she became the prince's never-before-seen concubine...
