Kong Yan transmigrates into an old palace-intrigue novel where the emperor male lead and the female lead torment each other body and soul, leaving the entire harem as cannon fodder.
Every woman in the harem loves the male lead, and every man loves the female lead. In the end, all the consorts are banished to the Cold Palace, where they die miserably.
She is just one of the many consorts, as ordinary as they come: an unloved fake daughter of the Minister of Rites. After the real daughter is reunited with her family, Kong Yan is sent to the palace in her place, while the real daughter is showered with affection to make up for her parents' past neglect.
By the time she transmigrates, she's already in the Cold Palace.
Ding! The General Store System has been bound. Host, make lots of money and climb to the top of life.
The most beloved eldest daughter of the Chancellor's family is banished to the Cold Palace. Unable to win the emperor's love, she pines for him day and night and grows thinner by the day.
The female lead says, "Miss, you're beautiful as a flower. Why hurt yourself over a man? Look at this face mask. It moisturizes, fights wrinkles, and keeps you looking young forever."
The eldest legitimate daughter of the general's family is banished to the Cold Palace. Jealous of the female lead, she grows increasingly deranged.
The female lead says, "Sis, you're brilliant. Victory and defeat are part of war, and a gentleman can wait ten years to get revenge. Take a look at this game console. Men are nowhere near as fun as games."
The love-addled empress enters the Cold Palace...
The female lead makes a fortune.
The Minister of Rites' real daughter timidly asks, "Sis, could I borrow some money..."
This is a fictional setting, so please don't compare it to real history.
There will be a livestream storyline later.
Put your brain aside while reading.
My next novel, "Who Matched This Honest Girl With 100 Husbands?", is on my profile.
It opens November 4.
He Zhimou falls for his senior, Shen Xiaohe. He loves her very, very much, but as a shy young man, he doesn't have an easy time pursuing her.
After his hundredth confession hint goes over Shen Xiaohe's head, he snaps.
A System appears and sends him to another world, splitting his body into 100 parts. His hand becomes a man, his foot becomes a man, his eyes become a man... His body becomes 100 different men.
The System sends Shen Xiaohe along with him. She becomes the wife of all 100 men, each of whom has a marriage certificate with her. All 100 men are her husbands!
She must win over all 100 of him to complete the mission and return to her original world.
The complete He Zhimou appears in Shen Xiaohe's dreams, becoming her strategist and secretly helping her win over his 100 selves.
All 100 versions of him have lost their memories and forgotten Shen Xiaohe, but they instinctively feel a powerful possessiveness toward her.
The man made from He Zhimou's arm tightly wraps it around Shen Xiaohe. The man made from his leg kicks the arm-version of He Zhimou aside.
The He Zhimou made from his mouth gently comforts Shen Xiaohe: "They're suffocating you. They don't care about your feelings at all. I'm different. I truly care about you."
The He Zhimou made from his eyes watches it all, possessiveness blazing in his heart. Shen Xiaohe can only belong to him!
The complete He Zhimou meets Shen Xiaohe in her dreams. In the dream, he remembers everything and knows what Shen Xiaohe has done to win over his other selves.
At first, he's delighted that the woman he loves has eyes for no one but him. He teaches her how to win himself over, but before long he grows increasingly jealous of his other selves.
He can no longer keep pretending to be harmless. In the dream, he tempts Shen Xiaohe: "Kill them all!"
In the end, Shen Xiaohe lives with her 100 husbands, each He Zhimou vying for her attention. The other He Zhimous are all enemies!
A slow-witted, honest heroine x a possessive hero with many selves
You could call it one-on-one. The hero belongs to the heroine in body and soul, and so do all his other selves.
Why did all those other selves become the heroine's husbands after they transmigrated? Because the hero dreams of marrying her.
The world normally doesn't allow that many marriage certificates, but a bug occurred when the System got involved, and the heroine ended up with marriage certificates for all the hero's selves.
