[Sweet and gentle young Daoist priestess x Cruel and obsessive tyrant]
1. Jiang Yiwan is the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, but because she's branded an ill omen, she is sent to a Daoist temple ten li outside the capital and left to fend for herself.
After Jiang Yiwan comes of age, she dreams every night of the same man. In her dreams, he pulls her into his arms, and they share intimate, passionate nights. Jiang Yiwan wakes with a start and from then on is afraid to fall asleep at night.
Later, Jiang Yiwan is brought back to the prime minister's residence and forced to take the place of her favored half-sister in the imperial harem.
They say the emperor is cruel and merciless, vicious and twisted. The consorts who enter the palace either go mad with fear or die of it. After entering the palace, Jiang Yiwan lives in constant trepidation, terrified she'll lose her life.
On the night she is summoned to attend the emperor, Jiang Yiwan wraps herself in a small quilt and cowers at the foot of the bed. As she watches the dark shadow draw closer, she nearly screams.
A pair of icy hands touch her ankle, and Jiang Yiwan faints on the spot.
2. In her previous life, her half-sister Jiang Zhuangwan entered the imperial harem under the identity of the prime minister's legitimate daughter, only to be killed by the emperor on the very night he summoned her. After being reborn, she promptly convinces her father to bring Jiang Yiwan back and send her to the imperial palace.
But no matter how long she waits, she never hears that her elder sister has died. Instead, she hears that Jiang Yiwan is wearing the phoenix robe and has become the most favored consort in the Six Palaces.
3. Pei Heng suffers from a strange illness. His temperament is unpredictable, and his moods change without warning. Only when he dreams of a fairy maiden and spends the night with her does he return the next day to being the elegant, dignified emperor.
Unexpectedly, one day the fairy maiden stops appearing in his dreams. He longs for her desperately, but cannot find her. His illness grows worse, and none of the court officials dare provoke him.
Only one timid little consort dares to soothe him when he loses his temper. Trembling, she pours him tea. "Y-Your Majesty, please calm down."
Pei Heng holds back a smile, pulls her into his arms, bites her trembling fingertip, and kisses her rosy lips. In a low voice, he says, "Wanwan, don't be afraid of me. I won't eat you."
Reading guide:
1. The male lead was not reborn. He gradually remembers what happened in his previous life, while the female lead has no memories of it.
2. The leads are imperfect characters. Everything serves the romance.
3. There are characters who are reborn, but neither lead is one of them.
4. One-on-one romance, both leads are chaste. A sweet, doting romance.
5. The dynasty is fictional. Official titles and positions may be inspired by the Tang and Song dynasties, but the author makes the rules, so please don't overanalyze them.
The blurb is provisional and may change. A screenshot of the blurb has been saved.
Theme: Stay positive and treat others sincerely.
