The Tyrant Won't Even Spare the Fish!

[The main story is complete. Come on in!] [Check out my ongoing fantasy romance next door: The Real Heiress of the 1970s Wins by Taking It Easy with Her Blind Boxes] Chongyi transmigrates into a book as a disposable young mermaid, offered as medicine to the tyrannical villain. The tyrant, Xiao Jian'an, is handsome and noble, but not very bright and prone to bouts of madness. Chongyi thought she wouldn't survive past the first chapter, but the tyrant actually made her his "Imperial Consort." Make a fish an Imperial Consort? She nearly became a "demon consort who brings ruin to the country" and lost her head, but then she rose in status through her child and became the mother of the future crown prince. Chongyi: "..." Could it be that I'm still a young mermaid who can't have children? Please leave me alone. I'm just a fish. * Xiao Jian'an thought that after his mother and twin sister were brutally killed, he would never trust anyone again. Then that fish appeared. She was timid and useless, couldn't even hold a knife, and was nothing like the fearsome merfolk of legend. All she did was hide in the pond, blow bubbles, and ask for a bun to eat. Xiao Jian'an was a madman. He had only kept her around as a little toy to amuse himself, but he never expected her to touch the softest place in his heart. That battered heart had room for only one silly fish. One-on-one, both leads are virgins. An obsessive, cruel, sickly male lead who becomes a devoted simp x a sweet, soft heroine at first, who grows strong and kind over time. The content is silly, the worldbuilding is made up, and the author's skill is limited.

[Recommended: my friend's The Black-Bellied Crown Prince's Everyday Disguise] The year Xiao Hua turned fifteen, she fell for a nobleman at first sight. The nobleman was the crown prince, handsome as an orchid tree and radiant as jade. She was lowborn and vulgar, and could only admire his bearing from afar. But she never expected her past to hold a secret. She was suddenly revealed to be Princess Yongle, Jiang Nianlan, whom the emperor had sought for six months. After the crown prince learned of her past, he took pity on her and treated her with great care and tenderness. She didn't covet the wealth that came with suddenly rising from obscurity. Instead, she cherished this moment of warmth by the crown prince's side. When the crown prince was poisoned, she cut her snowy arm without hesitation, using her blood to draw out the poison and save his life. But she was left mentally ill as a result. Throughout her years in the deep palace, she opened her heart to no one but the crown prince. One night, she met the crown prince in a dream, but he was nothing like he was in the daytime. By day, he patiently and carefully peeled grapes for her, letting her spit the seeds into his palm. In her dream, he made her hold the grapes between her lips and teeth, pushed her into a pool of spring water, and explored her beneath the water. In the eyes of the world, Crown Prince Chu Nanjin was gentle and refined, dignified in his manner, and praised by officials and commoners alike. Few remembered that he had once been an abandoned child taken in by the emperor. Serving the emperor was like walking beside a tiger. The words "the crown prince is not of royal blood" had forced him to scheme at every step and plan far ahead for years. But no one knew when he began to be haunted by erotic dreams night after night, though he had rarely dreamed before. At first, he still restrained himself and followed propriety. But as time passed, he looked into her innocent, guileless eyes and eventually lost control. Outside his dreams, he remained the dignified, courteous, gentle, and respectful crown prince. In his dreams, as she sobbed and trembled, he could not restrain the force of his hands, leaving one deep mark after another on her delicate skin. Then, in the great hall, he heard the emperor betroth her to a prince. The dark malice in his eyes could no longer be contained. On her wedding night, he dropped all pretense, tied up her new husband in the woodshed, and brazenly strode into the bridal chamber. His eyes were rimmed in red and clouded with cold, dark fury. He traced her tender neck with his palm. "After sharing such intimacy with me, you still dare to marry someone else? I didn't know my little sister had a taste for becoming a widow."

He'll have to work hard to win her back. ++3. Both leads are virgins. The setting is fictional, so don't overthink the details.
