A brooding emperor x a headstrong princess
When Xue Rou was six, her father took the nine-year-old Xue Huaiyi by the hand and told her, "He'll be your big brother from now on. Come on, call him Big Brother."
She naturally refused to acknowledge a bastard of unknown origins as her brother. Pointing at his nose, she immediately declared, "I don't have a brother like him!"
Her father ignored her protests and raised him as the crown prince under the empress's care, making them brother and sister in name and in law.
After that, she harbored a grudge and found all sorts of ways to humiliate him. He never hit back or answered her insults, always behaving with utter humility.
At sixteen, Xue Rou married the man she loved and slowly put that bastard out of her mind, devoting herself to building a happy marriage.
Who could have guessed that her father would die suddenly and the crown prince would ascend the throne, sending her into an abyss of misery?
*
Xue Huaiyi hates this younger sister with every fiber of his being.
For years, he endured hardship and kept his ambitions hidden. At last, he ascended the throne.
He broke up her marriage, stole her away, then built a cage around her, keeping her like a fish in a pond or a bird in a cage...
He will make her pay back everything she owes him, and then some.
Xue Huaiyi has the patience to remain entangled with her for the rest of their lives. But he forgets that she is fierce by nature and refuses to yield.
That night, a fire raged through Chengqian Palace until midnight, turning the dark sky red.
He hurried over when he heard the news, and listened as his subordinate reported, "Your Majesty, we've searched everywhere. There's nothing. The princess may have..."
Before the report was finished, he felt something coppery in his throat, and in the next instant, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
At last, he understood.
His feelings for Xue Rou were more intense than hatred.
1. The male and female leads are not blood-related, and by the time they truly get together, the male lead has reclaimed his true identity.
2. The female lead doesn't die. The female lead is not a virgin, while the male lead is.
3. The male lead is both crazy and awful, and the plot is extremely melodramatic. Read with caution.
4. The characters' values do not represent the author's. Please don't conflate the two.
Her Heart Is Cold
During the years he spent drifting through Yangzhou, Pei Ce fell in love with someone. She was bright, cheerful, innocent, and kind. He once wanted to marry her and give her everything. He thought she felt the same.
One day, a rich playboy from Yangzhou came to propose to her family. Pei Ce stopped him in the street. Certain that she didn't want the marriage either, he promised her, "No matter what, I'll take you away."
But his earnest promise earned him a slap and mocking laughter. "His family is rich enough to protect my whole family. What do you have?"
Later, the Duke of Anguo's household in the capital found him and brought him back. He became a refined young lord and rose to the pinnacle of power.
Years later, an old case from Yangzhou was brought before the emperor. In court, he heard a familiar name: Zhan Yunqing. The notorious playboy of Yangzhou from back then was her husband.
He stepped forward calmly and volunteered to go south to investigate the case.
*
In the main hall, the entire Zhan family bowed their heads to welcome the distinguished guest from the capital.
Pei Ce stood tall, looking down at them. He pointed casually toward a corner, and the crowd exchanged uneasy, bewildered glances.
"Well, well. Long time no see, Mrs. Zhan."
1. The female lead is not a virgin, while the male lead is. Happy ending.
2. The main story is told from the female lead's perspective.
Theme: The one who tied the knot must untie it.

Seeing that now it is really impossible not to respond to the male protagonist. Although the late emperor felt sorry for him, he still felt like he was being deceived, and he used the power gained from being deprived to hurt the female protagonist. If the world is in chaos and he can carve out a kingdom by himself, I won't say anything. Sima Yi even screams injustice in front of him. The Sima family has changed dynasties for three generations and four people have been scolded for thousands of years.
It's so well written, it's just this crazy literature × cool [sunglasses] (Cry to death, why do I always like to flirt with the gentle male lead in rape stories, and the gloomy male lead in young couples [cover your face and laugh] [cover your face and cry]
This emperor is also stupid. If his daughter is not pampered, he will find an unrelated bastard to succeed him. Why haven't the royal family members strangled him to death? [Comparison] Even if he only has one child, he must either rule out any objections and let the daughter become the female emperor, or let the daughter find a man to leave the father and keep the son. The last one will find a suitable one among the royal family members. I chose to find a Phoenix man who bullied his daughter to the point of pretending to die. It would be nice to be wiped out, right?
The profile is really outrageous, and there are not many princesses who are against the prince, but their purpose is to get the prince down and become the emperor herself, so they are not afraid of offending the prince. This princess offended the prince while not making any plans for her future. In the end, she forgot that she had offended him and prepared to live a beautiful life. What a stupid pig. People can be stupid or bad, but they cannot be stupid and bad at the same time. Has the heroine never thought about what to do if the prince ascends the throne? Since this prince has no identity or background, just fuck him. How can you, a princess of noble birth, not be able to fuck a bastard whose mother is unknown? Even if it is realistic that women cannot be emperors, wouldn't it be okay for you to support other brothers with whom you have a good relationship? And this queen, haven't you noticed that your daughter and your adopted son have a very bad relationship? How do you manage the harem? Why don't you quickly and secretly destroy this man and wait until he succeeds to the throne? Why don't you, mother and daughter? No, my God, this male protagonist with the same name as his male favorite is really happy. He ascended the throne as a bastard, and imprisoned the orthodox bloodline. Where are you, the royal family members! Where are you, ministers of the family? Where are you, literati?
It's good now, Li Xian is no longer a Liuwei Emperor Pill, but a Qiwei, and my mother's male favorite is also an emperor [Compare Heart]
"What to Expect" The crown prince's succession to the throne is really unpredictable. Except for people like Zhuge Liang who have no plans, who would have thought that the crown prince could succeed to the throne?
Judging from what the male protagonist is doing now, it is really unjust that he will not perish in the end.
Good article, it's still free for now, support by comments, I hope the author won't give up
The author will update soon. After the update, I will pay to watch it. I like the perverted character of the male and female protagonist 😚
Oh my God, what a blow??
