Has the King of Hell Come to Do Odd Jobs Again Today?

Tea-Tempered, Adoring Lord Yama x a Puppet Sprite Who Doesn't Realize She's Spoiled

Ye Liuxi is a little puppet demon who came upon a fortuitous opportunity. She is beautiful, and not long after taking human form, the old Demon King decided to offer her to Lord Yama in exchange for eternal life.

She heard that Lord Yama had a blue-green face and fangs, and had already frightened more than eighty concubines to death.

Ye Liuxi fled overnight, hid her identity, and opened a shop dedicated to helping the dead resolve their lingering obsessions so they could be reincarnated smoothly. She did good deeds to build up merit, hoping to ascend to immortality as soon as possible.

By chance, she picked up a pitiful, orphaned little fellow with a sweet disposition. He watched over the shop, ran errands, and did odd jobs. He got up earlier than a chicken and went to bed later than a dog, and if she told him to go east, he would never go west.

Most importantly, he was handsome and blushed as soon as she flirted with him.

But the little fellow grew more and more clingy, and the way he looked at her became increasingly strange.

Until one day, Black and White Impermanence came begging him: "My lord, please come back and take care of official business!"

Lord Yama gave a wicked smile. "Doing odd jobs for my wife is official business, too."

Ye Liuxi turned and ran. "Heavens, please take me away!"

Lord Yama followed behind his darling wife, unhurriedly complaining, "Don't go, dear. Was I not handsome enough today?"

Coming soon: Reborn: The Fortunate Consort

A beautiful, gentle consort who is outwardly cold but tender within and can never speak of her suffering x the Kangxi Emperor, domineering and heartless at first, then a devoted, shameless puppy

Shi, the wife of Crown Prince Yinreng, was reborn in the body of Wei Yunqing, a candidate in the imperial selection of palace women. In her previous life, Wei Yunqing was the famously favored Liang Consort, whose beauty had once won the Kangxi Emperor's heart.

At this time, Yinreng was only five years old. Knowing she had no chance with him in this life, Wei Yunqing suppressed her longing, made herself look plain, and pretended to be a low-ranking palace maid, hoping only to leave the palace when she turned twenty-five.

Unfortunately, things did not go as she wished. No matter how carefully she kept her distance, the Kangxi Emperor kept closing in.

He summoned her more and more often, even threatening her with red-rimmed eyes: "Yun'er, stop hiding from me, or I will punish you for disobeying an imperial decree."

[Little Scene]

For a long time after Lady Wei gave birth to the Eighth Prince, she was not summoned to the emperor's bedchamber. Everyone in the harem rejoiced: At last, she has fallen out of favor!

But Kangxi went to complain to the Grand Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang. "Imperial Grandmother, Yun'er doesn't like me."

"She cares for the Crown Prince and the Eighth Prince, and is very filial to you and the Empress Dowager. She is kind to everyone except me..."

The Grand Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang could hardly bear to watch. "Have you been using your imperial authority to bully her again?"

The Aisin Gioro family had always produced passionate lovers, but this was the first time she'd seen one so useless at winning a woman's heart.
