[The neighboring story has started updating: "Fighting for Favor with the Moonlight". Its blurb is at the very bottom. Alternate title: "Pining to Rival the Moon's Radiance"]
Please add this to your collections, everyone! A humble bow to you all!
[Blurb]
Everyone in the martial world knows that the entire Qi family are famous philanthropists. What they don't know is that the family has a youngest daughter named Qi Lian Nan.
With slender, jade-like fingers, she touches nothing that isn't beautiful. Her eyes shimmer, her waist is delicate enough to fit in one hand, and her beauty could topple cities. Add to that her frail constitution, and it's no wonder Master Qi has spoiled her rotten since childhood.
After his master died, Xiang Xing He came down from the mountain. It has now been four years. When he first descended, he was young and ignorant, and got mixed up in some unsavory business. Now someone has ambushed him and destroyed his inner power. With no other choice, he remembers his master's final words and decides to try his luck at the Qi family.
He never expected the Qi family to be wiped out before he could find a way to restore his inner power.
He takes the beautiful young heiress to seek refuge with relatives, only to learn by chance that the fastest way to restore his inner power is to practice a secret technique together with Qi Lian Nan. Well...
From then on, the martial world gains another strange pair: a gorgeous, pampered young woman and a hero with profound inner power.
Many years later, the martial world has another strange pair: a gorgeous, pampered young woman and a hero with profound inner power.
Qi Lian Nan sits on the railing at the martial arts tournament, swinging her legs lightly and kicking her pearl-adorned embroidered shoe away.
"Xiang Xing He, my shoe fell off."
Everyone watches as the newly appointed leader of the martial alliance picks up her shoe and hurries over to her. He kneels on one knee to put it back on her foot, then brushes the dust off it with his hand.
That wicked woman has bewitched the alliance leader!
A friendly reminder:
The male lead is a bit rough around the edges at first, but he'll gradually improve.
Both leads are each other's only partners, 1v1.
Happy ending.
Coming soon: "Fighting for Favor with the Moonlight"
[Blurb]
When a letter arrives from Xu Qing Ru's distant aunt, a Noble Consort in the palace, Xu Qing Ru is summoned to court.
Only after entering the palace does she learn that she was brought there to compete for the emperor's favor with the Noble Consort's "moonlight," whom the empress has invited to court.
She gets lost in the imperial gardens, but luckily a handsome eunuch shows her the way. It isn't until the day she meets the emperor that Xu Qing Ru realizes who he was. That night, she'd kept calling him "Chief Eunuch" and thanking him over and over...
Xu Qing Ru: I'm probably not going to survive this.
Sure enough, the moonlight smiles sweetly at the emperor and is made a second-rank Zhaoyi.
Xu Qing Ru tries to copy her with a sweet smile, but the moment she looks up, the emperor's imposing gaze makes her shudder. She is only granted the title of fifth-rank Cairen.
After entering the palace, the moonlight rises through the ranks, while Xu Qing Ru can't even get a glimpse of the emperor.
She has to endure the empress's faction humiliating her now and then, while the Noble Consort scolds her for failing to compete. Xu Qing Ru's life in the palace is like walking on thin ice.
But things gradually take a strange turn. First, the concubines who bullied Xu Qing Ru are punished for all sorts of bizarre reasons. Then the moonlight slowly loses the emperor's favor, while Xu Qing Ru claims to everyone that she has never shared the emperor's bed, yet thrives and rises through the ranks.
Everyone in the harem is baffled. Only Xu Qing Ru knows what's going on: the usually stern and cold emperor always sneaks into her chambers late at night.
By the faint candlelight, Xu Qing Ru leans against the arms of a tall figure.
She nuzzles his neck and says in a timid, coquettish voice, "Your Majesty, Consort Wang said today that my eyes are big and lifeless, and that I look frightening."
Emperor Li Chen kisses her bright, clear eyes and murmurs, "Don't worry about it, Ru'er. I'll send her to the Cold Palace tomorrow."
Xu Qing Ru buries her little face in Li Chen's arms and grins like a sly little fox.

3. The setting is fictional, with some original worldbuilding.

Sorry everyone, a lot of things happened in the third dimension today, and I feel a little depressed, so I won't update today. My life has been a bit messy recently, which is definitely not a reason to postpone updates, but the recent events in my life have indeed given me some inspirations, and I want to share them with you. It's all bloody work in life. I didn't know it until late, so I took a lot of detours. I hope everyone can listen patiently to my ramble. The first is that when something major happens in your life and you need to make a decision, you have to think about the consequences of the matter carefully. You can ask everyone for their opinions, but if you have already made a decision in your mind, the most you can do is listen to other people's opinions, and you don't necessarily have to actually adopt them, because for things in your life, you are the one who will bear the consequences in the end, and no one will bear the consequences for you. Even if this person is a parent or brother, even if this person says sincerely that he/she is doing your best, when you really regret it, you will only blame him/herself. You may want to say, ah, this is very simple, do you really know? Making your own decisions is easy to say but difficult to do. If this is a major event in your life, deciding where to go to college, where to work, whether to marry a certain person. This kind of decision that easily affects your life, can you really make decisions for yourself without caring about anyone else's suggestions and ideas? Many times the people around you will say, I am doing this for your own good, you have to listen to me. If you think about it carefully, is he really doing this for your own good? Is the decision you made really bad for you? Maybe it's because I don't have sunshine in my heart. I always feel that there are many more people in the world waiting to see your jokes than there are people hoping for your good. I hope everyone has the right and ability to make decisions for themselves. Choose a path of your own decision, go on it firmly, be responsible for yourself, and don't care what anyone else thinks. I wish you all an easy life every day.

Although Nan Rong is a bad guy, he is still a teenager. The reason why he failed is because he fell in love with Lian'er. Love is really difficult to figure out. Although he did all the bad things, it is still a bit heartbreaking to die.
Yesterday, while I was chasing other articles, I accidentally came across this novel. It's my favorite Jianghu theme, and it's surprisingly good! Already caught up with the latest chapter!
"" Is a big bug for the author~ sound
"Qing" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ light
