***Blurb***
At a palace banquet, Qing Wu gets drunk and asks her father, the emperor, for a special birthday present.
When she opens her eyes again, a fair-skinned, smooth-bodied young man is lying beside her.
The boy has long, willow-like brows. His hands are tightly bound, and his loose black hair falls over the nape of his snow-white neck.
His cold, proud eyes seem unfocused. His thin lips part, his voice cool and detached.
"Your Highness's coming-of-age gift is this servant."
Day after day, Qing Wu sits in her lofty pavilion, looking down at the boy who has failed to escape. Completely puzzled, she asks, "Isn't it wonderful to stay with me and enjoy all the riches and comforts you could want?"
Pei Muci kneels below her, gazing at the innocent little princess, his fists clenched and his eyes full of complicated emotions.
The day the city falls, Chang'an runs red with blood. Nearly the entire imperial family is slaughtered. Qing Wu survives only by hiding in a desolate, uninhabited place.
A month later, at the founding ceremony, the ritual whip cracks three times, but the new emperor is nowhere to be seen.
Qing Wu curls up in a corner of the cellar, weak and trembling, every cell in her body screaming at her to run.
Then Pei Muci appears in red armor and a cape, advancing toward her with a sinister smile and an air of imperious arrogance.
"A Wu, you have no idea how hard you've been to find."
The ministers all say that the emperor's indifference to women and empty harem are ominous signs.
As night falls, Pei Muci slowly kneels before the beautiful figure resisting him with all her might, his phoenix eyes filled with boundless tenderness and brutality.
"A Wu, have you forgotten? I was the one who served Your Highness all along."

***Upcoming novel: After Winning Over the Obsessive Villain***
One true pairing, happy ending, one-on-one romance
Cen Zhao has a dangerously beautiful face. Because of her special status, she has been hidden away in a dark, secluded palace since childhood.
She's had enough of sour leftovers and the same dull routine every day. She can't stop thinking about the red walls and green tiles outside.
At last, an assassin takes refuge in the secluded palace, and Cen Zhao slips out of her bedroom amid the chaos.
She happens to see the man leading the group, dressed in white as bright as snow, with an ethereal bearing like a fresh breeze. He must hold a high office and considerable power.
She accidentally catches her foot on the threshold and falls right in front of him.
The guards around her look at her as if she's already dead, but she reaches out a delicate hand, looking frail, with tears at the corners of her eyes.
"My lord, I fell so hard. Could you help me up?"
Song Ling holds unrivaled power at court and eliminates his rivals outside it. He's ruthless toward everyone, utterly indifferent to life and death. No one has ever dared get close to him.
And yet, somehow, a girl as lovely as a celestial maiden has appeared at his side.
Song Ling lifts his teacup, and she falls off her chair, splashing tea all over the person beside her.
Song Ling picks up his brush, and she nods off, knocking over a priceless work of calligraphy.
Song Ling draws his blade, and she runs away, afraid of getting that unpleasant smell on her.
Every time she meets Song Ling's cold gaze, Cen Zhao says weakly, "At first, I really did want to win you over. Do you believe me...?"
[Bonus Scene]
Cen Zhao has never thought of herself as a good person. She clings to Song Ling only because circumstances leave her no choice. If the right opportunity comes, she'll go find a better place to settle down.
Fortunately, it isn't long before the Crown Prince takes the throne and begins selecting virtuous young women from among the people.
Song Ling controls the young emperor. On the surface, he is helping the new emperor choose consorts, but in truth, he is arranging for his trusted followers to enter the palace. By chance, he sees a portrait that looks all too familiar and finally understands Cen Zhao's little scheme.
"Where do you want to go?"
Realizing she's been found out, Cen Zhao hurriedly packs her things and prepares to run away from home.
Song Ling blocks her path and looks up. "I was asking where you want it: on the table, in the carriage, or in the bath?"
Theme: Endure hardship now to achieve greatness later
The column includes: The heroine of "Duozhao" defeated the male protagonist in her previous life! As a result, I was reincarnated and met the male protagonist with memories, which was like a dark room play scene!! "The Concubine Is Ungrateful" is a pure torture of men in the crematorium. The male protagonist was stabbed by the female protagonist, and his ribs were pierced with bamboo needles. He also removed the ribs for the female protagonist's treatment, but the female protagonist did not forgive him!!! "After Flirting with the Yandere Villain by Mistake" The female protagonist relies on sucking the male protagonist's blood to survive, so she keeps chasing him. Later, she recovers and kicks him away, and the gentle male protagonist goes crazy online!! "Spring Breeze Kisses the Moon" is a pseudo-brother and sister, a purely sweet and pampering story, with a nurturing style. If the younger sister talks to any man, the older brother will secretly tease her and get jealous!! Sweet!! The main reason is that the author's mental state may be even crazier than the male protagonist if he writes about forced love. The above are all in the column. If you like the baby, you can save it, mua~
Can I ask the author's Weibo? Thank you.
