Synopsis: Wei Chu became the kept lover of a powerful figure in the capital. By chance, she saw something she shouldn't have, and fled in terror.
A pretty young widow arrived in a remote northern town far from the capital. She took over a tofu shop, and the locals called her Madam Hu. Suitors lined up at her door, but she would remarry only if the man agreed to join her family.
Just then, a defeated rebel army passed through the town. Madam Hu joined the crowd to watch. A large troop of guards escorted an ornate carriage with a gilded roof. As it passed by her, a gust of wind lifted one corner of the curtain, and she saw that face of breathtaking beauty. His cool gaze fell on her, and she hurriedly hid in the crowd.
Before long, Madam Hu took a husband into her family.
The dynasty changed, and the new emperor ascended the throne. Wei Chu's uncle was reinstated to his old post, and the tofu shopkeeper was transformed into the legitimate daughter of the second branch of the Earl's household. Her husband, who had married into her family, had disappeared without a trace. No longer a virgin, Wei Chu failed to secure a match after several attempts. When the new emperor sought to fill his harem and win over former officials, she was ordered to enter the palace.
The harem was a deep and treacherous place, where the consorts schemed against one another. Wei Chu, low in rank and timid by nature, unpromisingly decided to lie flat.
One day, a eunuch from the Palace of Repose and Longevity delivered an imperial decree summoning Wei Chu to the emperor's bed. After bathing, she was wrapped in a quilt and carried by the eunuch into the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Wei Chu squeezed her eyes shut and trembled. A man's breath drew near, and suddenly she caught a familiar, crisp scent.
This story is set in a fictional world.
New story now underway:
Synopsis: The Xue household has five branches. The two legitimate daughters of the second branch are famous beauties in the capital. The third young lady, Xue Jinzhi, and her stepsister, the fifth young lady, Xue Jinfu, have been at odds since childhood. Their parents and elder brother favor Xue Jinzhi.
Ambitious and fiercely competitive, Xue Jinfu schemes to marry Xiao Fengchen, Prince Yong. The couple become bitter enemies. Xiao Fengchen is cruel and ruthless, while Xue Jinfu is hard-hearted and vicious. Their marriage is nothing but scheming, and in the end, Xue Jinfu dies amid palace intrigue.
Reborn before her marriage, Xue Jinfu is still the daughter who is least favored by her family. She is selected to be a princess's companion and runs into her former husband, whom she fears and avoids. The imperial palace is full of danger. Xue Jinfu is tricked into losing her virginity and becomes pregnant. Her former husband finds her. Xiao Fengchen is now a sickly invalid, incapable of intimacy. He persuades Xue Jinfu to marry him, saying he has little time left and that all his property will belong to her and the child after he dies.
Her former husband, the child's adoptive father, treats the child as his own. In the end, he unexpectedly ascends the throne and makes Xue Jinfu empress. When their adopted son is a few years old, he begins to look more and more like his adoptive father.
Xiao Fengchen plans to designate the adopted son as crown prince, but the ministers object. The heir to the throne must be of royal blood. The emperor announces to the world that the adopted son is his own biological child.

I feel really sorry for the heroine, and I feel bad for her. She had already escaped, and she could be a small landlady in a land, with a brother and a sister-in-law, and even Gan Fengqing who understood her. She could have lived a beautiful life without a man, but now she was wasted like this. He couldn't protect his wife and children in his previous life, but he still lets his wife and children be bullied in this life. What do you want a man like that to do!!!! I'm really angry! Are you treating others as fools if they don't get angry?
Can't the second male lead take the lead? Or it's not bad for the heroine to be beautiful alone
It was so frustrating to watch, and I felt like the male protagonist had no ability.
It's so funny that when I asked for leave, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it was already the National Day.
Li Ye doesn't take good care of Chen Er, nor does he take good care of his servants.
These two eunuchs have failed to fulfill their responsibilities. How can they be listened to by the emperor? Can the emperor's kung fu be discovered?
"Wei Xuelan didn't say anything" is a big bug for the author~ Mei; PS: It's almost a hundred chapters and the male protagonist is still very weak. Who understands???
Why is it updated every other day recently?
How long does the author plan to delay? The scumbag talks about wronging the heroine, but actually wants to marry a female partner. The Zhou family doesn't punish him at all?
Either the emperor is too ambitious, or the queen mother is too stupid. Locking up a concubine who is the only one with children like this will cause trouble to the emperor outside unless there is a successor, and the queen mother has a biological son who can take the throne. Otherwise, it will kill and injure the concubine who the emperor obviously cared about and took special care of before leaving. Is the emperor so relieved to let the heroine leave no one of his own in the palace? I always feel that people from all walks of life are big-hearted...
