My new novel, "The Qianlong Emperor's First Empress Loves Herself Best," is now underway!
●----------------------●
Jinhua had always thought the Shunzhi Emperor was a short-tempered mama's boy and a love-struck fool.
After transmigrating as Shunzhi's second empress, Jinhua discovered that he was muscular, incredibly handsome, had a deep, magnetic voice, and was both dashing and charming.
Too bad all the good men belonged to someone else.
Knowing that Shunzhi would eventually devote himself exclusively to Consort Dong'e, Jinhua decided to lie flat first.
Seated on the empress's throne, she watched the beauties of the harem fight over the emperor with cool indifference.
"What's the big deal? Your Majesty, you can have him."
*
Who could have guessed that Shunzhi was a love-struck fool, but only when it came to Jinhua?
*
Shunzhi was marrying for the second time, taking a relative from his maternal grandmother's family. They were related by marriage, but so distantly that they were generations apart.
On their wedding night, the empress eagerly tried to establish their family connection, calling him "Uncle" this and "Uncle" that.
The empress didn't want to marry him? Well, he didn't want to marry her either! He dusted off his robe and swept out.
The empress called him "Your Majesty" whenever she wanted something, and "Uncle" when she didn't. She was more solicitous than anyone when she needed something, but otherwise kept her distance.
Yet she loved to tease him, then turn over and pull her collar closed, refusing to give him the time of day.
*
Shunzhi didn't know when he had started feeling a sharp, sour ache whenever he thought of the empress.
He never dreamed that the empress he'd scorned on their wedding night would make his heart race just because he secretly ate a piece of pastry she'd bitten.

1. It's just a story.
2. The timeline serves the story; this is a semi-alternate history.
3. The male and female leads are not related by blood. There are childbirth scenes.
4. The romance is the focus, and everything revolves around it. The pacing is unhurried and slow-burn, but everything that should happen will happen. It's romance all the way through!
5. Consort Dong'e is not the protagonist.
6. The historical institutions, forms of address, and characters differ from real history in various ways, and there are some errors. Some serve the story; for others, I've done my best to research, but my abilities are limited, and there are details I couldn't find, so I've made them up. Suggestions are welcome, but I won't respond to attacks.
In short, please consult academic books if you want to study history. The author is sensitive and easily hurt, so please be gentle.
Thank you for understanding.

Theme: Stay optimistic and keep moving forward
The genders are different, so what are you afraid of...
Claw, I'm here again, do you still look familiar to me? It's been a long time since I've been here. I've been feeling so uncomfortable lately. After finishing this book, I'm going to read it from the beginning again. I've forgotten a lot of the plot.
Is this Queen Mother perhaps suffering from some serious illness? She could take control of the government by killing her granddaughter? As long as the emperor is alive, the emperor must personally govern. What kind of thing can he pick up if he offends his own son to death?
This will be completed within this year. Please bookmark the pre-receipt. The Qianlong story was originally about "Prince Bao chasing his wife in the crematorium" and "Fucha's scumbag Prince Bao".
Queen Mother, your bloodline is not noble enough, is it? How many years have passed since I entered the customs? The mud under my feet has not been washed away yet.
I have been performing very well recently and am quite diligent! Keep up the good work, be sweet, fight with the old queen, and let her know that she has a wife and forgets her mother, and it is better to have a carrot than to have a son!
I feel like it's a sad article at the end
It's coming, it's coming, big. I've been trying to write an article recently, but I haven't had time to read it. Fortunately, I have a lot of hair, otherwise I would have been bald!
Apologies to all my friends, chapter 176 has been added.
It's not easy to write an article, so congratulations on the completion. This year I tried writing about real people, but I didn't expect that real people would go from a hero who collapsed to a gambler, so I was forced to cheat on the story. It was so difficult, hahaha.
