Regent Princess x Imperial Tutor
In the first year of Ling'an, a new emperor ascends the throne.
Princess Yang Lingyun, the eldest princess of Lin'an, relies on her maternal family, the Fu clan, to keep the young sovereign powerless, monopolize the court, and scheme for the throne.
But the young emperor has the support of the Ning'an Marquis household, and Lin Weiran, heir to the Ning'an Marquis, serves as his imperial tutor. When the emperor comes of age, who will prevail in the struggle between Yang Lingyun and Lin Weiran remains to be seen.
Such rumors are rife in the capital.
So quite a few people in Chang'an have already begun placing their bets.
As these rumors keep reaching the people concerned, even Yang Lingyun gradually starts to believe them herself.
So one night, she asks Lin Weiran, "What if I really do want the throne?"
Lin Weiran is silent for a long time before replying, "I would stop you."
Yang Lingyun doesn't get angry. She even laughs, slowly tracing his lips with her fingertip. Her voice is as soft as a lover's murmur. "So even you suspect I'm scheming for the throne, is that it?"

Blurb:
In the misty spring rain of late spring, Song Changling arrives in Chang'an and takes down an imperial notice.
The current regent has suffered from a chronic illness for years, and the imperial physicians in the capital are at a loss. The court has no choice but to post a notice seeking a doctor.
Song Changling has traveled through all sixteen prefectures and is most interested in difficult and unusual illnesses. She slings her medical kit over her shoulder and heads to the regent's residence.
They say this regent wielded the tiger tally in his youth and captured eleven cities from the barbarians. Unfortunately, an accident left him injured three years ago, forcing him to return to the capital to recuperate.
At their first meeting, he leans against the window and smiles. His features are refined and noble, and every movement of his seems as gentle as a breeze beneath the moon.
It would be such a shame if someone like him spent the rest of his life unable to walk.
Song Changling declares confidently, "Don't worry. I'll definitely cure you."
Yang Yansheng gathers his sleeves and smiles faintly. "This prince thanks Miss Song in advance."
Everyone in Chang'an's court knows that the regent is handsome as a jade statue and black-hearted as they come.
As a young man, he harmed his own siblings and crushed members of the imperial clan. Once grown, he seized power and authority, and was exceptionally cold-hearted.
Yang Yansheng has never cared about these rumors. If anything, he's glad they spread.
But after Song Changling appears, he suddenly starts caring about one thing: Song Changling likes gentle people.
Behind Yang Yansheng's flawless disguise, Song Changling continues to believe that the regent is a man of noble character, pure and bright as the moon.
Until the day Yang Yansheng recovers and she packs her bags to say goodbye.
A pair of shackles prepared long ago snaps around Song Changling's wrists.
No matter whether Song Changling tries to reason with him or threaten him with poison, Yang Yansheng remains unmoved. He only rubs the golden cuffs over and over, whispering with almost reverent tenderness, "Changling, you can't leave. You can only stay by my side."
A year later, Song Changling fakes her death and escapes, finally living free beneath the open sky once more.
"I heard Yang Yansheng's health has gotten worse this past year. Lately, he's been muttering about some resurrection and spirit-summoning ritual. He's stopped handling the affairs of state, too."
Song Changling props her chin on her hand, seemingly unconcerned. "Why are you telling me this? I'm just a traveling physician."
The other person falls silent for a moment, then lets out a quiet laugh. "Changling, you and Yang Yansheng are actually alike. He's sick, and you have no heart."
Song Changling turns around and snaps, "How can I have no heart? I healed his legs, and he repaid my kindness by locking me up in his residence. He's the one with no heart."
"But at least he's truly cared about someone before. Changling, all these years, have you ever truly cared about anything?"
Warnings:
1. The hero forcefully keeps the heroine by his side. He really is ill, but both leads are devoted to each other in body and heart.
2. The heroine is no meek, innocent flower.
3. There is a groveling arc, but it has a happy ending.
Theme: Everyone has the right to pursue the life they want.
It's been a long time since I've read a book in one sitting. The plot and emotional parts are particularly exciting and enjoyable. I hope the author writes more! Looking forward to more works!

In fact, I think the heroine can change the way. If she must let the eldest princess die, she just lacks evidence of her rebellion. If there is no evidence, she can also create evidence, so the risk is much smaller.
