The Consort Is Too Coldhearted (Qing Dynasty)

Dong E thinks her luck is absolutely terrible. She failed the palace selection, was assigned to another man, and became an unfavored secondary consort.

But the other women in the household tell her not to lose heart and urge her to focus on fighting for power in the inner quarters and climbing the ranks.

Compete for favor? She dared to do that thing to Ninth Prince. All she wants is to eat well, drink well, and laze around like a salted fish.

Until one day, the young emperor, whose ambition was just beginning to emerge, walked toward her beneath an umbrella, amid the evening drums and morning bells.

Dong E stopped and turned to bow to him. “Your concubine pays her respects to Your Majesty.”

Ninth Prince stared at her, desperate for her to return to his side, but unable to say so. He could only ask stiffly, “Winter has come again. The hair at the back of my head has grown a little. Would you come back and trim it for me?”

The nerve of him, acting as if things were still the way they used to be...

A second chance after a broken relationship

Possessive Emperor x carefree, sweet girl

Historical romance now underway: Golden Branches

Huo Zhi is a precious county princess from Lingnan. She plans to choose a man in the place of exile to share her bed.

The little county princess thinks that if she gets pregnant, she won't have to enter the palace as the old emperor's consort. So she conceals her identity, takes the name Zhizhi, and prays to the merciful exiled monk for a child to honor her late husband.

But the exiled monk is a little strange. He seems even more eager than she is to consummate their marriage...

After being thoroughly worn out, Zhizhi's hair bun is crooked and messy, her pretty face flushed. She pants, “Master, are you really a monk?”

His eyes are cold and unmoved by passion. He grips her slender waist so tightly that she begs him again and again to stop before he finally relents.

As the former foremost minister, how could Pei Zhen fail to see that this woman was sent by his imperial brother? He decided to play along. But the secret agent sent to him was so delicate, and she always whimpered after only a little while in bed.

At last, his imperial brother died, a general amnesty was declared, and the young emperor summoned Pei Zhen back to court.

But strangely, the secret agent had vanished without a trace.

Only after returning to the capital did Pei Zhen learn that his imperial brother had been bedridden with a long illness and had long since lost interest in state affairs. He had never sent a secret agent to Pei Zhen at all.

If that woman wasn't a secret agent, then what had those wild days been about?

Then, at the young emperor's enthronement, the vassal princes from every region came to pay their respects. The newlywed County Princess of Lingnan called out softly, “Huo Zhi, County Princess of Lingnan, pays her respects to the Prince Regent.”

Her slightly rounded belly stung Pei Zhen's eyes...
