Yu Xuechan transmigrates into a book and becomes the villainous consort who won’t survive past Chapter Three in a world torn by war.
This consort has a stunningly beautiful face, but she is also a bona fide scapegoat:
The dog emperor is impotent, yet takes her as his consort to hide the truth. He indulges himself, then pins the blame for the nation’s ruin on her, calling her a wicked seductress!
She is vilified by everyone and left with a notorious reputation.
Sikong Ji, the story’s chief antagonist, is arrogant, ruthless, and brutal. He swears to destroy the tyrant and his wicked consort to avenge his father.
On the day of the palace coup, Sikong Ji runs his sword through the consort’s heart, killing her on the spot. He then slaughters everyone in the palace, plunges the land into a river of blood, and becomes a merciless demon who kills without batting an eye.
The good news: If she can change Sikong Ji’s fate of losing a battle and taking his own life, leaving no body behind, she can return to the modern world.
The bad news: First, she has to survive Chapter Three.
When Sikong Ji storms the palace, everyone flees in panic.
Yu Xuechan’s hair is disheveled and her lashes tremble, yet she is like a lush, dazzling rose, impossible to look away from.
Sikong Ji’s face is as cold as iron. The next second, the sword that has just killed the emperor presses without mercy against her snow-white neck.
Since seduction won’t work, Xuechan decides to risk everything.
“There’s a secret that has tormented you for fifteen years. I’m the only person in this world who knows the truth.” Her limpid eyes flashed as she stared straight at him.
*
At first, Sikong Ji spares Xuechan’s life only to learn the truth. But he soon discovers that the formidable rival vying with him for the realm is someone from her past
Before entering the palace, the wicked consort was that man’s cherished first love. Years have passed, yet he still can’t forget her or let her go.
Sikong Ji thinks little of it. She’s just a pretty face. What’s there to keep pining for?
But later, though he insists she is nothing worth mentioning, he shields her from every blade and storm.
To Xuechan, Sikong Ji is the lone figure in the bloody battle of Liangzhou, bold and brilliant, refusing to yield even in death. He is also the pair of rough hands that, amid the Yangtze River battle and before an army of thousands, fights to hold on to her and never let go.
Little by little, she can no longer bear the thought of him dying. She wants to change this war-torn world alongside him.

Coming soon: The Qing Dynasty’s First Great Astronomer
During the Qianlong era, Wang Zhenyi is born in Jinling. From a young age, she is fascinated by astronomy and mathematics. Whenever she is alone, she gazes up at the night sky and observes the paths of the stars.
But when she is fourteen, her grandfather is convicted of a crime and exiled to the frontier. She has no choice but to move with her family to the grasslands.
In the vast desert, supplies are scarce. Whenever she feels she can’t go on, the river of stars overhead gives her boundless strength.
Zhenyi studies under a Mongolian woman general and learns to ride and shoot. She knows that only by learning to protect herself can she continue exploring the heavens.
Beneath the windswept tents, she charts the stars and devises calendars. By reading the stars, she predicts the weather and forecasts good and bad harvests, helping the people of the frontier.
Later, she travels across the land and broadens her horizons even further. She proves the theory that the earth is round, conducts experiments on lunar eclipses, and compiles works on mathematics.
People say women belong confined to their inner quarters, and that astronomy and calendrical studies are the preserve of emperors and men.
But she insists on taking up her brush and paper, observing the stars, and questioning the heavens and earth as a woman.
