[Main story and extras complete]
At seventeen, Qiu Yi was summoned to the palace as a bride to bring good fortune,
with her death in the old emperor's burial already prepared for.
How do you break a certain-death trap?
[The three time-honored ways for palace women to stay alive: powerful maternal family, a child at their side, and a relationship with the next emperor.]
From then on, the Noble Consort made plans in the palace and sent resources home, transforming her family's household of upright officials into a powerful clan entrenched in court.
She casually picked up a child nobody wanted. The boy was wild and hard to tame, and his dark eyes often fixed on her. "When I grow up, I'm going to marry a beautiful woman just like Lady Qiu."
Qiu Yi glanced at him and replied airily, "Then you'll have to become emperor first."
The boy grinned. "It's a deal."
-
Two years after the new emperor ascended the throne, a woman of unknown identity appeared in Yongning Palace.
"Your Highness, do you still remember our promise?" The once-frail child held Qiu Yi in his arms, keeping her captive.
"I've forgotten." Her expression was calm as she spoke.
The new emperor toyed with the chain dangling from her wrist and leaned close to her ear. "After telling so many lies, Your Highness must have a poor memory."
[A scheming, breathtakingly beautiful Noble Consort x a new emperor who starts out a little white rabbit, turns far too dark, and needs to suffer a long, painful quest to win her back]
*Updates daily, 3,000 words
++The heroine is genuinely heartless. At first she does whatever it takes to stay alive, and later to fake her death. She's always happily pursuing her own ambitions.
[Check out the new serial, Has Your Majesty's Love Been Cremated Today? in my author page. As always, it's full of melodrama.]
The new emperor ascended the throne, seeking peace and prosperity for the land. That person curled his fingers around hers, pale and tightly clenched, with such tenderness that she almost forgot it was an order.
"Perform one more sacrifice for me, will you?"
So, barely recovered from a miscarriage, she dragged her broken body to the altar and nearly bled out her last drop of blood.
She was tired.
-
At dusk, a palace servant reported: Her Highness says she wants to go home.
The emperor dropped his vermilion brush, his eyes dark with malice. The National Temple was destroyed, the Zhao Kingdom fell, and she ignored her empress's seal, determined to make trouble.
"Tell her, where else can she go besides my side?"
Chu Pinglan was certain she couldn't stir up trouble. She was foolish: all it took was coaxing for her to help him ascend the throne with all her might, a few promises for her to believe him, and a little delay for her to forget the pain...
But while he kept putting it off, the flames that night soared into the sky and lit up the Forbidden City. Only then did Chu Pinglan realize that if the whole world became a prison holding her captive, hatred would turn to flames, and she would rather resolutely be buried in the ashes.
The young emperor was held back by the chief eunuch, struggling desperately as he watched everything turn to dust, his finger bones crushed in his clenched fist.
-
This was the final sacrifice personally performed by the goddess Wanheng: one deception that fooled the world, leaving him in unbearable pain and filled with regret.

A long, painful quest to win her back
Theme: Stand on your own feet and pursue your own happiness
Happy ending sprinkle flowers~
I really like my smart, clever and tough sister, Xiaoyi, come and give her aunt a kiss.
Starting from a ridiculous surprise, the Qiu family, Zhang family... Everyone's backs were stepped on by a noble shoe, which could be imperial power, a superior, or life.
I wrote a poem in April:
One thousand one hundred dreams overlap with the night
In the choking, in the babble, in the sound of wind
The fire in the world burns people so much pain
You kneel in the fire
You kneel in your fate
You kneel under the chastity arch for thousands of years
Fortunately, Xiaoyi never believed in fate. Step by step, it is a journey of awakening and resistance.
This is the characteristic of the author's writing. Every heroine has the right to wake up and fight.
Walking on thin ice in the palace, the common people's daughter was still trampled under her feet. She lived like a symbol, like a doll seeking peace of mind. Time and time again, she was teased by the imperial power, and she knelt down, and time and time again, but my daughter Xiaoyi did not really kneel down, she would stand up, again and again. This is what I admire the most, persistently pretending to be a way out in the midst of hardship.
Adopting a puppy is the same as being touched by a fallen person in the world, "I am very good at begging." Originally thought to be a Bai Yueguang script of mutual companionship and redemption, it turned out to be wrapped in countless fogs and misunderstandings, including love, hate and deception.
The puppy, who has low self-esteem and is sensitive, and the lady who is stuck in the mud, have known each other since childhood, and will hurt each other with their sharp love for countless days in the future. They let go and fell in love amidst the treacherous situation of death and balance.
I will also remember Zhang Wanping, I was really hurt. Die for me, Prince Dog! In the game of superiors, life is like a piece of grass. In the next life, be a pear blossom, pure and white, carefree.
One more thing, Xiaoyi really realized very early that the only way to avoid being stepped on is to stand upright. I really cried miserably when my brother was branded. By herself and others, she and her puppies together add more possibilities for women's futures.
I will always love the heroine who is self-reliant, smart, brave, and has a great love in her heart. Puppy whatever ()
Looking forward to the next one~
Woohoo, I finished the final exam and finished the book. It's really great that it's not unfinished. It's just a pity that I didn't see the ancient extras! See you in the next book! Congratulations to the author!
"The bond between life and death is broad, and it is said to be true with the child. Hold the hand of the child, and grow old together with the child." Woohoo, the puppy just doesn't know how to love properly yet.
I'm so angry that I feel like I don't love the male protagonist anymore. When there was no male protagonist in the past, Xiaoqiu's career line was very full. Although it was hard work, she could find her own way. After he came back, Xiaoqiu was like a bird in a canary cage. Such a restrained life was just for the selfish desires of a puppy. Really sad. All Xiaoqiu's suffering after he came back was caused by him. I don't expect him to come back at all. I chased all the way to see it, it was really sad. I can't stop crying now. Xiaoqiu is so miserable, so miserable, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Sprinkle flowers in Wuhu! Congratulations on the completion!
Let me be the dark owl. Stupid puppy, I've done it, I've done everything, I'm going to piss you off
I'm looking forward to the ancient extras, will there be one?
I'm really touched. I wish we can all have our own brilliant lives outside of data.
Good situation opens up, Qiuqiu takes off~
Just ask if you are dead or not. There is no point in pretending to be pitiful when the time comes. Why can't we talk about these words every day? I'm really convinced that Xiaoqiu has been made so pitiful. Xiaoqiu should be a free wild goose.
