Fake Siblings | Both First-Timers | The Outcast Bows His Head | Scheming to Take What He Wants
Sunny Little Sister vs. Cold, Unhinged Older Brother
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace had been entrusted with overseeing the government for years, earning outstanding results and the submission of every official. Everyone said he was a principled gentleman of impeccable character.
But where no one could see, his gaze on his younger sister, Yun Tang, grew ever more intense and fascinated.
He had patiently waited for years, only to hear Yun Tang say to him,
"Brother, I have feelings for the top-ranked candidate. May I marry him?"
He fell silent for a moment, then smiled. "Of course. Whoever Ah Tang wants to marry, I'll help you marry him."
Not long afterward, the top-ranked candidate was demoted and sent away from the capital for some reason, becoming a low-ranking official in the countryside. He would never have another chance to meet the princess.
Unaware of the truth, Yun Tang leaned against her brother's shoulder and wept in grief. The Crown Prince gently put an arm around her waist and comforted her in a low voice.
The young marquis couldn't stand to watch. Pointing at the Crown Prince's nose, he cursed, "You're despicable! I'm going to tell Ah Tang you have improper designs on her!"
The Crown Prince lowered his eyes, utterly unafraid, and even encouraged him with his words.
"Go ahead."
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was second only to the emperor and above all others. What could he not obtain, and what did he have to fear?

Later, because of a painting, Yun Tang really did find out.
Stripped of her status as a princess, she was confined in the Eastern Palace. Beneath red candles and soft curtains, he took her by force as she wept.
Unable to bear it, the young marquis helped her escape her cage. They went to Jiangnan, concealed their names, married, and lived a peaceful, tranquil life.
Unexpectedly, on a stormy night, someone in the darkness lifted her sleeping robe and kissed her awake.
Yun Tang fought him off and slapped him decisively.
"Again!" The familiar slap only made him more excited.
Wherever his calloused palm touched, her skin was warm and silky. He tenderly kissed away her tears. This man, who stood high above everyone else, even insisted on taking her earlobe into his mouth. His words were humble, at once teasing and seemingly sincere.
"Ah Tang, have you missed me?"
Content warnings:
1. The male lead knew very early on that the female lead wasn't his biological sister. While they were siblings, there were no direct descriptions of romantic feelings between them. Childhood sweethearts + taking her by force + winning her back. If that's your thing, dive in!
2. One-on-one romance, both first-timers. The female lead had already lost her status as a princess by the time she was confined in the Eastern Palace.

Currently serializing: A Jiao Decides to Die Today
A Jiao decided to die today.
In the morning, she made a steaming bowl of noodles with cured meat and eggs. After eating, she washed the pot and bowls and set them in the sunlight by the window to dry. Then she went back to her room and tidied the bedding she'd messed up in her sleep. Finally, she lit a stick of incense at her parents' memorial tablets, closed the old wooden door, and headed up the mountain.
She dug a pit for herself with her own hands and named it: The Perfect Pit.
When she got there, someone was already lying in the perfect pit.
A Jiao: ...
She decided to drag him out. Halfway through, a knife was pressed against her neck.
"Save me, or I'll kill you." The man was gravely wounded.
A Jiao heard him and found this exactly what she'd hoped for. She leaned her neck forward. "Go on."
The man flew into a rage. How dare a country girl from the mountains provoke him? His temper flared, and he promptly passed out.
A Jiao was rather disappointed. She dragged him out of the perfect pit, only to discover that he looked quite a lot like her childhood sweetheart, who had just died.
She suddenly remembered what the almanac said about today.
Today was auspicious for sacrifices and burials, and for reuniting with old friends.
She sat and watched the white clouds and flying birds for a while. Beside her, the man's blood poured out in a steady stream like a brook.
A Jiao decided to take him down the mountain.
A living-but-almost-dead, honest man / a domineering dog of a man who takes what he wants
Picking up a man / replacement / taking what he wants. There's melodrama, but not much.
