Sweet and obedient noblewoman x ruthless, scheming villain
Abduction and forced marriage / rivalry between men / running away while pregnant / groveling for forgiveness
(The male lead is a villain through and through. Please avoid if that's not your thing.)
Shen Zhi, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites, is born with an ethereal beauty and a bewitching charm. While she is still in the womb, her family arranges her betrothal to the Duke of Dingguo's household.
The Duke of Dingguo has three legitimate sons, and everyone eagerly speculates which one will win the heart of this cherished young lady.
The Duchess takes Shen Zhi's hand and smiles kindly. "Wanw an, just choose whichever one you like."
Shen Zhi gazes at the three tall, handsome young men before her, deeply torn.
The eldest son became Minister of Justice at a young age, but he is sinister and merciless, and has a reputation as a ruthless official.
Shen Zhi is a little afraid of him.
The second son recently placed first in the palace examination, and is a charming, refined scholar. The third son is a bold, spirited young man.
Shen Zhi thinks the second and third sons are both fine choices.
But one day, an accident at a garden gathering sends Shen Zhi tumbling off a cliff, leaving no remains behind.
The entire capital laments that such a brilliant beauty has met such an untimely end.
No one knows that inside a luxurious golden cage, a frightened young woman looks at the strange man before her.
"Y-You're really my husband?"
Pei Shen, the eldest son, suppresses the vile desire in his eyes. His slender, pale fingers brush a tear from the corner of her eye, and he smiles gently.
"Of course. Would your husband lie to you?"
Every night, as they share a bed, Pei Shen gently warns her again and again, "Wanwan, now that you've called me your husband, you can't call anyone else that from now on. Do you understand?"
"Wanwan, be good."
"You can only stay by my side. You're not allowed to go anywhere."
He weaves a vast net of lies, hoping to keep her trapped at his side for all eternity.
Until one day, she remembers everything.
Pei Shen spends his whole life scheming and manipulating people.
Only when he loses her does he learn the agony of a broken heart.
But letting her go is out of the question.
Even if he rots to the core, he will keep this precious jewel clenched in his palm.
[Reader advisory]
1. Single-couple romance. The male lead has psychological issues and is extremely possessive. He is a villain through and through [Important]. Don't expect anything from him!!! I recommend subscribing chapter by chapter. If you don't like it, quit while you're ahead.
2. Includes rivalry between men / long-laid schemes / abduction and forced marriage / amnesia / groveling for forgiveness / running away while pregnant.
3. Not a strong female lead story. Romance is the focus, with the plot in a supporting role.
4. The characters' values do not represent the author's. Everyone appears in service of the story. The author is neither misogynistic nor pandering to men, so please don't label the author that way.
5. I'll add more if I think of anything. Hope you enjoy reading~

My completed novel, After the Tyrannical Crown Prince Heard My Thoughts
Tyrannical Crown Prince & silly, sweet palace maid
The good news: She has been selected as a bedchamber maid.
The bad news: The person she must serve is the moody, women-avoiding Crown Prince.
Last night, Yun Kui saw a palace maid carried out of the Crown Prince's bedchamber.
Thinking that she was about to be sent to her death next, Yun Kui trembled and huddled under her little blanket.
The following night, the Crown Prince sits on the edge of the bed, a sinister glint in his eyes. He beckons to her like a predator eyeing its prey. "You. Come here."
Yun Kui crawls over on trembling legs. She thinks of hundreds of ways to beg for mercy, but is too nervous to say a word
"No way, nobody told me the Crown Prince was this handsome!"
The Crown Prince hears her thoughts and narrows his eyes.
"His lips look so soft. I wonder if I can kiss him before I die."
The Crown Prince freezes.
"Looks like he's got an eight-pack, and his hands are so big and pretty. I bet those hands could snap my tiny waist in half!"
The Crown Prince's lips curl into a sinister smile.
"They say the more prominent a man's nose, the more impressive he is in bed..."
The Crown Prince: "Pfft."
Yun Kui freezes.
That laugh... It seems to have come from above her head.
After falling seriously ill, the Crown Prince unexpectedly gains the ability to hear other people's thoughts. He chuckles and pats the bedding.
"Get up here."
Yun Kui thinks nervously, "To die beneath a peony is to be a happy ghost."
The Crown Prince: ...
*
Yun Kui is a lovestruck little palace maid with a mind full of dirty thoughts. She loves reading romance stories before bed and staring at handsome guards. Her biggest dream is to marry a strong, healthy guard and spend the rest of her life in shameless bliss. She never expected the Crown Prince to catch her in the act. Sob!
At least half her dream came true. She didn't marry a guard, but she did get a strong, healthy man, and there's plenty of shameless bliss, so it's not bad.
#They all want to harm me, but she only wants to sleep with me#
#What bad intentions could she possibly have?#
#She's so innocent, I suppose I can indulge her#
Theme: Marriage must not be built on deception.
Ending and spreading flowers - I only came across this article after I finished the whole book. It took me two days to read it, so I just wrote a little~ Originally, I just wrote some random thoughts on the wb account. After thinking about the name of the protagonist, I felt it had some profound meaning, so I wrote a comment. The names of Pei Shen, Shen Zhi, Gao Huachang, and Pei Lang are all worthy of their names in my eyes. The first two characters and the last character can be regarded as one word throughout the whole text. The name Gao Huachang sounds aura with its own aura. Even if the surname and the word Huachang are removed, it still carries a graceful and noble temperament. Unconsciously, it reminds me of the appearance of the eldest princess in the article. She speaks her truth, defends her shortcomings, refuses to admit defeat, and carries the pride and arrogance of a royal eldest princess. The author also portrays Gao Huachang's suffering and contradictions as a mother very well. When I saw the full name of the eldest princess for the first time, the image of a confident and confident woman instantly appeared in my mind. Naming is indeed an art~
I love the author so much! I've finished reading the big book! Waiting for new articles
It would be nice if this one without amnesia was a long story. I really like this kind of marriage first, love later, so sweet [Spread Flowers]
My dear, can you publish a new article in November? 💪
This is the end, it's not enough!
Woohoo, when will the new article be published? I've been waiting for a long time. I check here from time to time and there is no update.
Oh my God, this little plot is completely inadequate and makes me laugh to death. I also want to see how they save effort (Dahuang Yatou online) (bushi) 🐶
In chronological order, Prince - Prince - Pei Shen, the author's style is becoming more and more lively (mature), I look forward to the next one. When I read this book, I felt that Pei's character was too extreme, and I thought that if I knew that my lover's behavior was so extreme, would it be painful to fall in love with this person again, and would it go against secular norms, and whether I could go deeper into Pei's compromise for love. Overall, I'm looking forward to the author's next work, it's very good!
