Blurb: [Beautiful and bold empress × secretly ruthless emperor]
Xie Huaiyi is the legitimate daughter of a great general who protects the nation. She is stunning, comes from a prestigious family, and as the leading young lady of the nobility, deserves the finest man in the world.
But Xie Huaiyi, used to living freely, has no wish to be constrained by her husband's family. She arranges a marriage to her own satisfaction: the prime minister's illegitimate son. He's handsome, good-tempered, and low-born, so surely no one will dare make her life difficult after they marry.
Once she comes of age, she can marry the young man she carefully picked out and avoid the conflict between her father and Cheng Yan. But fate has other plans. The gentle young man dies, and she is forced into the Eastern Palace, married to Cheng Yan as his Crown Princess, and later becomes empress.
Xie Huaiyi: ...
Let it all burn!
Bored by the dull life at court, she decides to make waves by going against Cheng Yan.
Cheng Yan likes orchids with a subtle fragrance, so she has them uprooted and replaced with flamboyant peonies.
Cheng Yan dislikes crucian carp, all prickly bones and hardly any meat, so she has some stewed and personally makes sure he eats it.
Cheng Yan likes a black-hearted lotus, sweet-tongued but venomous inside, and she's only too happy to beat one up.
In short, she wants to do anything that will make Cheng Yan unhappy.
Cheng Yan has a young girl hidden in his heart. He schemes and plans, hoping she will grow up so he can give her a grand wedding.
But all she can think about is marrying someone else.
Cheng Yan goes mad. He tears off his mild-mannered disguise, makes a deal with the devil, and resorts to any means necessary until he finally marries her.
Married life is not as sweet as he imagined. The girl resents him, hates him, and even wishes she could kill him.
They have a minor argument every three days and a major one every five. She is always working against him, and her sharp tongue is well-practiced at hurting people.
What can Cheng Yan do? Fighting won't solve anything; it will only push her farther away.
After nearly driving himself to his grave with anger, Cheng Yan reflects and decides to indulge her, humor her, and slowly win her over.

Blurb for the upcoming novel Contract Marriage:
[Clear-headed and rational woman × gentle, chaste man]
Ye Lanshan enters a marriage of convenience with Jin Chuhuan, taking the place of his wife. Once their three-year contract is up, she can walk away with ninety million.
As for their life after marriage, she hasn't given it a thought. Her sister-in-law is her best friend, and her parents-in-law spend 364 days out of the year traveling. Freedom is the only word she can think of to describe three years of marriage on paper.
But can someone tell her why married life is completely different from what she expected?
Did she find herself a contract husband, or a big brother?
She has to get up at eight every morning for breakfast. The food is bland as plain water, and snacks are forbidden in the bedroom...
After being lectured on every little thing, Ye Lanshan asks, "Can I still change my mind?"
Jin Chuhuan: "What do you think?"
Two and a half years later, the person Jin Chuhuan loves returns to the country. But Ye Lanshan is the one who brings up divorce first.
That night, she smiles with graceful composure. "Chuhuan, let's get divorced."
"Why?"
"I've fallen in love with someone. I want to marry him."
Jin Chuhuan has only just realized his feelings and firmly turned down his ex-girlfriend's attempt to get back together. Now, clutching a heart shattered to pieces, he struggles to hold on. "But there's still half a year left on the contract."
"According to our agreement, if you break the contract, you only get two-thirds of the agreed payment."
"I know," Ye Lanshan says calmly.
Jin Chuhuan's heart is now completely shattered.
Theme: Hold fast to your principles and take responsibility.
What do you mean, you will definitely win for Suisui. . . If she wins, the heroine will be the eldest princess; if she loses, she will be the queen who rebels against her father. . . It's for myself. If it's really for the heroine's benefit, she shouldn't go to Lin just to avoid being discovered. . . In fact, it's just that I can't bear to be the emperor. It sounds like it's aggrieved to say so.
Ah, actually we can write a spin-off about giving birth or something.
Is this the end? Have you forgotten the story of Xie Huaien and Liu Wan? I haven't seen them get married yet.
Then Liu Wan. Thank you Huaien, I'm so reluctant to leave you.
That's great. It's the right way for men to just let go.
Finished showing off in one day, waiting for the update
Pre-collection of the article "I was reborn after the fall of the country", the princess and the noble son, if you are interested, you can click and collect it. Princess Chu Ying of Tongchang was favored by the emperor. She got wind and rain when she wanted it, but she only fell down once in her life. The somersaulter's name is Li Lou. He has eyes like bright stars and a face like a crown of jade. He is both civil and military and has no effeminacy. He is one of the most beautiful men in the Liang Dynasty. Chu Ying thinks that only such a son is worthy of her. Unexpectedly, Li Shi's ambition was so fierce that her father died, her brother committed suicide, and she lost her country. The new emperor Li Lou ascended the throne, and the princesses of the old dynasty became the forbidden concubines of the new emperor. She climbed up the city wall, attracted Li Lou who was too busy to move away, and dragged him to jump off the city wall. They all deserve to die. Unexpectedly, when she woke up again, she was back to four years ago. Her father was still healthy, her brother was lively and cute, and she was still the brightest pearl in Daliang. The first thing Chu Ying did after her rebirth was to drag Xie Jiabaoshu, one of the two treasures, into the mortal world. The family doesn't care who becomes the emperor, and neither does Xie Xuan. Until one day, Emperor Zhangzhu took the initiative to come to his door. He fell into the game at first, and then lost his heart. The young master, who has always been calm and cold, bowed his head and made a serious promise: "I am a princess, and I will not give up even if I die." He wants her to be Daliang's princess forever.
So it's really important to look good hahahaha Xiao Chengyan relies on his skin to attract Huaiyi and make her want to be friends with him
Xiao Chengyan is also greedy for pastries, so cute!
Suisui has been taught by Yu Zhong's thoughts for too long. It's a pity, and Suisui is too kind to the male protagonist.
