[My new novel, The Beauty on the Run, is being serialized! A proud, talented woman x a dignified, formidable warlord. An ambitious man bends for love. The blurb is below; please add it to your collection!]
In her previous life, Zhou Yao was famous in the capital for two things: the intelligence network in her hands, which had uncovered countless secrets, and her astonishingly beautiful face.
She had not taken sides in the struggle for the throne. Yet one day, she suddenly infiltrated the prince’s residence alone to assassinate Jing Chucun, the refined and elegant Prince Xi, whose fame had spread throughout the realm. Her assassination attempt failed. Instead, a guard stabbed her, and she died on the spot.
As she lay dying, she remembered the blood-written list of Jing Chucun’s crimes she had uncovered. Gritting her teeth, she said, “The greatest mistake of my life was not seeing through your disguise sooner.”
With that, she breathed her last on the spot, never hearing Jing Chucun collapse to his knees beside her, his mask of many years finally shattered, as he spoke those words in a trembling voice.
Reborn, Zhou Yao swore to unmask Jing Chucun before the whole world with her own hands.
However, the Prince Xi who had always been so skilled at saying the right things to win people over no longer pretended or acted in front of her. He laid out his carefully plotted schemes in full and openly confessed every secret he had concealed from her in their previous life.
Zhou Yao racked her brains but could not figure out why her old rival was behaving so strangely, until Jing Chucun gripped her wrist and kissed her between the brows.
“You want to investigate the truth, so I’ll tell you the truth.”
“I only ask that you don’t leave me again.”

[The Beauty on the Run: An aloof ambitious man bends for love]
Everyone knew that the famous talented woman Su Qihe was a retainer of the current Prince of Qin, Jiang Xunche, and his personal attendant.
She wielded her brush like a sword, broke her own pride, and entered the world of political struggles for him. She also shared his warm, red-curtained bed, devoutly giving him everything she had, like a moth flying into a flame, unwavering in her love.
After another night of making love, she drank the contraceptive decoction. Enduring the discomfort caused by the bitter medicine, she lay flat on the bed with her eyes lowered, still dividing her attention to plan the progress of the political factions at court.
Others thought she had already fallen asleep. Someone asked His Highness the Prince of Qin whether he would grant Su Qihe a title.
Jiang Xunche’s voice came from far away, heavy and cold, like jade falling onto an ice platter. “There’s no need.”
He regarded her as nothing more than a beautiful, useful plaything.
What she had mistaken for gratitude for her guidance and a bond of love was, in truth, all wishful thinking on her part.
That night, she lay perfectly still. A tear silently slid from the corner of her eye, soaking the pillow and chilling her to the bone. It did not dry all night.
Jiang Xunche succeeded in usurping the throne. She had made great contributions, yet without warning, she set fire to her old bedchamber and disappeared forever.
Before leaving, Su Qihe raised a cup of wine in a distant toast toward the imperial palace, then poured it all into the raging flames.
“May you and I never meet again.”
Jiang Xunche had spent his life seated high in the halls of power, looking down on everyone. He never expected that, before the ruins of that great fire, he would vomit blood, humiliated and wretched, losing control again and again.
To find Su Qihe, the new emperor schemed and struggled until he was covered in wounds. His unrequited longing and unchanging devotion became known throughout the realm.
At last, he found the little house where she lived in seclusion. On a snowy night in the depths of winter, he stood outside all night, letting the snow soak through his thin clothes. His voice trembling, he asked if she could come back.
But she looked at him with distant eyes and returned his former words, one by one: “There’s no need.”
Theme: Bringing prosperity to all the people.

Why is there no one reading such a beautiful novel? I really cried to death.
Column pre-collection of "The Plan to Capture the Queen", please collect it ~ Bandit undercover x noble lady | The minister seizes the emperor's wife | Crematorium Shura field Copywriting: No one knew that Qingying, the queen of the dynasty who was unparalleled in beauty and loved the whole world, once desperately fell in love with someone unrequitedly. Before she left the cabinet, she was captured by bandits and imprisoned for ransom because of her status as a noble lady. The second-in-command of the gang who came for interrogation pushed open the door of the cell. He had a sword across his waist and handsome features. His eyes swept over her condescendingly. Before she even spoke, she was struck with confusion. This is a disparate and hopeless love, but Qingying is deeply trapped in it and is hopeless. On a bright moonlit night with sparse stars, she held up her half-tied dress, her eyelashes flickering, and she cautiously asked him if he could go down the mountain with her. "Miss, are you serious?" Zong Yichen put on his clothes and stood up, his thin lips smacking slightly, nonchalantly. At that time, the moonlight was like water, illuminating the coldness in his eyes like a ruthless cold blade, freezing the girl Huaichun's mind to the bone. After paying the ransom and returning home, she chose to agree to the marriage, and smoothly went from crown prince to queen. She had no feelings for the new emperor but treated them with respect. Until one day, the government and the public were shocked. It was said that in the decisive battle between the government and bandits, the second-in-command of the bandits, who had a large number of soldiers, jumped on the battlefield, and the court won a complete victory. The reason is that the second-in-command Zong Yichen is a dead soldier trained by the late emperor. He has been undercover alone in the mountains for five years, just for the victory of justice at this moment. The ten-mile long street welcomed the hero into the capital. The young man stood in front of the palace and saluted the new emperor. When he raised his head, his dark eyes stared directly at the queen beside him. His eyes were burning, just like that night in the cell a few years ago. At the palace banquet, Zong Yichen held Qingying's wrist deep in the flowers, his voice was hoarse, carrying the longing he had been waiting for for many years, and the deep-rooted infatuation that he had been forced to bury. "This time, let me take it seriously, okay?" The queen took her hand back and raised a faint smile on her lips: "Master Zong, you have exceeded the rules."

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh chasing me!!! In fact, after Ling Yu died, Zhou Yao guessed that Li was the mastermind of a certain empress when she said someone could rival Ling Yu. The reason for continuing to read is because the author is so good at setting up ambush. As he goes on to introduce more people, several places really make people gasp! The story ends here just right! However, I feel that Li's motivations are really outrageous, and his personality is indeed a bit extreme. I feel that his evil should not be that normal... But his evil thoughts are infinitely magnified. Although he has no intersection with the male and female protagonists, he secretly promotes the core of the entire story. But looking back at the foreshadowing of him being bullied all the time, there is indeed some evil in doing this. All in all, this short story is wonderful! The author is so great
As a court lady, the prince asked me to write her name. Did she really dare to write her name and not refuse it? That's not quite right, right?
Didn't the emperor know before that Jing Chucun was behind the pigeon ballad?
"Chang Qing" gave the author a big worm~ Isn't it Dongchen?
"Dad" gave the author a big worm~ As the old saying goes, at least you need a father.
