A forgotten god x a young gentleman who witnessed his own abandonment as a child, grew adept at putting on an act, and always pays people back for the slightest offense
(A marriage scheme painstakingly plotted)
The young gentleman wore a veiled hat. He nearly threw up blood on the spot, clenching his hands and forcing his voice low as he spoke with all the restraint he could muster.
"Destroying someone's marriage will bring a thunderbolt down on your head."
Zhuohua lay sprawled over the fortune-telling stall, lazily listening to the beautiful young gentleman's tearful, petulant complaint. She arched an amused brow.
A thunderbolt? It would only tickle. She wasn't afraid.
Besides, this goddess was only doing it for his own good. That woman might look wealthy, but her future was fraught with hardship, and her descendants would all perish. It was hardly a good match.
"Young gentleman, that lady has left. Could you settle the fee for your fortune?"
Zhuohua muttered to herself, figuring and calculating. With a faint smile, she moved the bamboo basket for the money toward him, thinking, Merit +1. Now that she had an offering, her divine power could recover another fraction. Even her nonchalant smile grew warmer.
"Come again next time, young gentleman."
The beautiful young gentleman's fingertips trembled slightly as he took out some silver and tossed it into the basket. His lips were tightly pressed together, and the veil hid his expression, though it seemed he was desperately trying to suppress his excitement.
Zhuohua pondered what it meant. Watching his stumbling figure hurry away, eager to leave, she shook her head. "Poor thing. Has he really seen through the mortal world already?"
She drew the bamboo basket back and set it beside her, her movements smooth and practiced. The lady tapped the table and smiled with a playful glint in her eyes, like peach blossoms in bloom. "But gathering offerings this way is so easy. I get some fun out of it and restore my divine power, too. It's the best of both worlds."
The lady stroked the offerings in the bamboo basket, spreading them out and gathering them back together, looking utterly pleased.

Scheming young gentleman x cool-headed, rational county princess of an enemy state
The day her identity was exposed, with danger closing in from both sides, Liang Xuanyu had decided to seize what she needed and fight her way out, delivering the list back to the Kingdom of Yu.
The young gentleman, dressed in his nightclothes, stood beneath the moonlight, as if he had been waiting for her in front of the Thousand Mechanisms Tower for a long time.
Liang Xuanyu was covered in blood, her long sword dripping with it. She paused for a moment, then stepped forward.
"Young gentleman, don't stop me."
"I'm not here to stop you, Liang Xuanyu."
On a cold autumn night, the dew was chill.
The young gentleman's thin, white nightclothes seemed dusted with frost beneath the moonlight. "The winner has been decided. I'm here to claim the promise you owe me."
Liang Xuanyu tightened her grip on the hilt, fell silent for a moment, then smiled. "What do you want, young gentleman?"
"Three days."
"What?"
"Three days of bedchamber pleasure."
Liang Xuanyu's expression shifted from confusion to shock.
The young gentleman's expression remained cool from beginning to end. "That's all I want."
"This concerns your chastity."
Liang Xuanyu felt the breath she exhaled growing scorching hot. "We're enemies."
"I'm the only one who can get you out of here." The young gentleman lowered his phoenix eyes. "Liang Xuanyu, will you agree?"
Torches lit up all around them as the men of Qingfeng Hall poured out in force. Their commotion seemed to be right at their ears.
The knuckles of Liang Xuanyu's hand tightened around the sword hilt, turning blue-white. Her breath emerged like a faint mist.
"Liang Xuanyu, I have no choice, and neither do you."
The young gentleman descended the steps. The moonlight was bright, and his jade-white feet were soft and bare.
Only then did Liang Xuanyu notice that the young gentleman was not only dressed lightly, but had no shoes on either. She frowned instinctively.
But the faint scent of medicine filled her arms, and the words caught in the lady's throat.
"Liang Xuanyu, hold me tight."
After three days and three nights, Liang Xuanyu left, but a piece of her heart stayed behind.
Half a month later, news reached the Kingdom of Yu that the new emperor of the Kingdom of Qian had ascended the throne and would soon be married.
At the time, Liang Xuanyu was roused from a drunken stupor. Someone had placed a portrait of the new emperor of Qian's phoenix consort on her desk.
Before Liang Xuanyu could move, her tenth senior sister sat up, hiccuping as she snatched it away.
Liang Xuanyu's elbow rested on the bottom of the scroll. It unfurled, revealing the young gentleman dressed in an ornate phoenix robe.
Liang Xuanyu's heart gave a painful squeeze. The wine jar fell to the floor, spilling wine everywhere.

[Coming Soon]: I Plucked a Black Lotus (Women Rule the World)
Before the Fu residence, lanterns were hung and decorations put up in anticipation of the wedding.
Fu Ciyu held an umbrella over the young gentleman, who was drenched by the rain and looked utterly pitiful. Though she'd been deceived many times, she still couldn't bring herself to refuse him a handkerchief.
"What do you want this time?"
"I want you to marry me."
The young gentleman looked up, the corners of his eyes red, and clutched the edge of Fu Ciyu's official robe, gripping it tightly.
Fu Ciyu had never imagined she would meet someone like him in her career as an official.
He was cold-hearted and ruthless, stopping at nothing to achieve his aims. He lied constantly, tricked people completely, then discarded them without a second thought, as if he had no heart at all.
She should never have had anything to do with someone like him.
But a murder case in Huaiyang County tied them together.
Fu Ciyu felt guilty, and he was so clever that the first time they met, he clutched her sleeve and looked up at her with a pitiful expression. "Fu Ciyu, could you help me get home?"
The Shangguan family was the foremost family in the capital, while the Cen family was separated from them by an unbridgeable gulf. Getting back to the Shangguan family was as difficult as reaching the heavens.
Fu Ciyu had no choice but to take him in first and let him stay at her home while they made a plan.
Assassination attempts came one after another, while rumors spread through the streets and alleys.
Fu Ciyu had no choice but to take leave and hide with him from place to place.
The little liar was delighted. He spent her money, demanded the best of everything, and ate the finest food. Fu Ciyu had no idea how the Cen family had raised him. He was even more pampered than the emperor's son.
Fu Ciyu often wondered about him, but whenever he looked at her with shining eyes, she swallowed her questions.
Oh well. If she was going to help him, she might as well see it through. All he wanted was to go home.
Shangguan Fei had never known anyone could be so easy to fool.
And this person was also the great enemy who had beheaded him in his previous life.
Reborn, he was petty and determined to get even, no matter what.
As for returning to the Shangguan family, there was no better excuse to cling to her side.
He wasn't going to dodge the assassins on his own like he had in his previous life.
And Fu Ciyu, having risen to prominence in her previous life and become a favorite of the new emperor and a rising star at court, was certainly not someone to underestimate.
He had to keep her sweet and get her to clear every obstacle for him, then...
kick her aside without mercy.

There are too many supporting roles and the protagonist has no role. It should be from the perspective of the protagonist.
Hanging on the city wall, you can still notice the master's fortune telling? When you hear the fortune telling results? Doesn't it mean that the eyes are very focused, only noticing the heroine, but not the master?

[Advance receipt]: Liang Shang's wife (female title) The little man who calculated all the tricks* is calm and rational, the enemy's county boss It was not Liang Xuanyu's original intention to steal fragrances and jade, but squatting on the beam every day and watching the beautiful young man looking at the account book and abacus, she really had to focus on his face. Liang Xuanyu held the sword in his arms and held the dog's tail grass that he got from nowhere in his mouth. He shook his head with regret on his face. There was such a boring gentleman in this world. He had been guarding Liang Shang for three to five days and he had never seen him do anything other than read the account book. Liang Xuanyu sighed. Fortunately, the election for the leader of Qingfeng Hall lasted for seven days. The tasks of the seven brocade boxes he had drawn had been completed. There was no accident. He would be elected and take control of Qingfeng Hall. However, the previous election for the Hall Master has changed the rules. Instead of deciding the candidate for the next Hall Master based on how quickly the task is completed, luck is also included. Everyone has the opportunity to randomly select seven brocade boxes, but the levels of tasks in all the brocade boxes are different. Everything depends on their own luck. Fortunately, Liang Xuanyu's Mercury was very retrograde for a while, and all seven brocade boxes were in the lowest level, D level! The only possibility of a comeback at the moment is to save the opponent's goal and win the victory. Liang Xuanyu narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he didn't know why such a beautiful young man appeared on the list of the first-level and most difficult mission of Qingfeng Hall, he had saved a circle of people and was finally done. He couldn't slack off just because he was too bored. She has a mission and must win the position of hall leader. Liang Xuanyu cheered up and pinched himself, thinking that the dawn of hope was just ahead. Who would have thought that after seven days, news came from the hall that because all the candidates had failed more or less, the task of killing the handsome young man was changed to the final decision of the hall master. Liang Xuanyu looked at the small piece of paper in his hand and dropped it.
