Here is this novel's blurb:

A white crane soaring among the clouds cannot be caught in a net meant for sparrows.

A New Account of the Tales of the World

*

She was a noble daughter of the Ruan family, brilliant and dazzling. She was betrothed to the Crown Prince as an infant. They grew up together and were deeply in love, but everything changed when she was sixteen. The man she loved died.

People said the Crown Prince had rebelled and died in Jiangbei while being sent to the Court of Judicial Review. But she didn't believe he would commit such an injustice. So she made a deal with a tiger and entered the imperial court as an official, all to clear her beloved's name.

*

He had always believed that as long as he cared for the people, he could become a wise ruler. It wasn't until he was falsely accused of rebellion and died in Jiangbei that he understood: to fight his way through this chaotic era and win peace, a benevolent heart alone wasn't enough.

After narrowly escaping death, he returned to Jiankang under another face. He spent three whole years at Nirvana Temple. When he dragged his ailing body back into the forbidden palace, he swore to reclaim everything that belonged to him, including her.

*

Two strong leads seek revenge and punish the villains. One-on-one romance with a happy ending.

The dynasty and characters are fictional, with some inspiration from the Wei and Jin periods. There are original elements, so please don't overthink it, dear readers.

The leads' love is not just a small romance between two people, but a great love for all the people. The plot and romance are equally important.

I'm a developing author. Please add this novel to your favorites and support me. Sending love~

Reason for entering the contest:

In feudal society, men held office, became ministers, and ruled as kings, while women faced layer upon layer of oppression. How unjust. Watch as a noblewoman from a prestigious family risks everything, fights back, puts her intelligence to use, and shows the strength of women as she seeks justice for women everywhere.

The Crown Prince was peerlessly benevolent, but a calamity sent him tumbling from his lofty position into the mire. After narrowly escaping death, he returned to Jiankang. This time, he would reclaim everything that belonged to him. Three years of rebirth, with life and death, teachers and friends as his companions: watch the lofty figure break through his shackles, rise above the clouds, and make a triumphant return.

Ad: "Seduction" (both leads are reborn)

Previous life: innocent, sweet noblewoman x dashing, aloof nobleman

Present life: calculating beauty who deliberately flirts x mad new emperor who steals his minister's wife

*

Shen Xianyue, daughter of the Grand Tutor, was raised as a pampered treasure, with skin as white as snow and beauty enough to topple kingdoms. Her life should have been carefree.

Until she fell in love with someone.

In the tenth year of Yongnian, a heavy snowfall came.

She died on her wedding day.

Reborn, she returned to the seventh year of Yongning. Through the misty drizzle, she saw him once again: brows like ink strokes in a painting, his appearance untouched by the mortal world.

He loved her deeply in silence. She wanted only to pull him down from his lofty altar and see whether, beneath those elegant white robes, he was made of flesh and blood like everyone else.

*

Shi Qingchen was strikingly beautiful and possessed an otherworldly bearing, yet he kept his distance from women. It was only because he had once seen a woman in a dream, and could think of nothing else, awake or asleep.

In the seventh year of Yongning, a cousin came to the Prince of Yan's residence. She was exceptionally beautiful, especially the cinnabar mole at the corner of her eye. She looked just like the woman in his dream.

The emperor issued an edict ordering her to enter the palace and serve him.

Red-eyed, he cornered her in the corridor.

"Ruoruo, how much longer are you going to keep hiding the truth from me~"

Reader's Guide:

1. A rebirth novel.

Previous life: innocent, sweet noblewoman x dashing, aloof nobleman

Present life: calculating beauty who deliberately flirts x mad new emperor who steals his minister's wife

2. Pseudo-siblings.

The heroine wants to uncover the truth about her past life. She pretends to be the hero's cousin and gradually makes him fall for her. They are not related by blood.

3. A complicated romance.

The male lead is sexually inexperienced in both lives.

The female lead and the second male lead are reborn with their memories. The male lead gradually regains his memories.

The lofty male lead falls from grace; the second male lead chases after love and gets a groveling arc. Happy ending!

4. The author is terrible at blurbs, so just skim this one. Please add my other novels to your favorites~
