Li Yun dreamed of the future: Yinzhen would become emperor, and she would be made Consort Qi. But after their daughter married into her husband's family, she would die of sorrow, while their son would be stripped of his imperial clansman status and adopted by the Eighth Prince.
Thinking of that tragic future, she looked at the man lying beside her. Whoever wanted to serve him could do it. She was done. She was going on strike.
Yinzhen couldn't understand why Lady Li had changed so much overnight.
Not only did she refuse to let him get close, she even shut the door in his face. Wasn't she forcing him to resort to that whole coercive-love routine?
P.S. Alternate history, both leads are each other's first.
Ongoing: Beloved by the Fourth Prince in the Qing Dynasty
Gu Shuangyue transmigrates one day into the Qing Dynasty as the mistress of Yinzhen, the future Yongzheng Emperor.
At first, she is extremely unwilling.
But later, she decides that living outside his household means she doesn't have to serve a man, and someone is there to protect her. Besides, she has a portable space with a spiritual spring, so this life isn't entirely unacceptable.
So Gu Shuangyue settles into a daily routine of shopping and eating, enjoying a very happy life.
The only one who's unhappy is Yinzhen.
Why does he have to work himself to the bone while Gu Shuangyue gets to live so carefree?
So Gu Shuangyue is brought back into his residence, and just like that, her good days are over.
But she doesn't want to fight the women in his household! Her skills in the inner-court struggle are zero!
Unexpectedly, she doesn't have to fight at all. Yinzhen protects her every step of the way, all the way to the position of empress.
It's just that being his darling isn't easy. Right now, she desperately needs a back-support pill!
Complete: The Fourth Prince's Wife Quits (Qing Dynasty)
After Ulanara Lingxin regains her memories from before she transmigrated, she discovers that she has become the future Yongzheng Emperor's principal wife. But she's neither Yinzhen's first love nor his later love. She's just his housekeeper.
She has to face Yinzhen's cold expression all day, working herself to death without ever getting to enjoy the good life before she dies. This time, she refuses to do it, no matter what!
Yinzhen thinks his sweet, soft little wife has changed. She's all smiles and laughter with everyone else, but gives him nothing but a cold face.
Everyone else sees the two of them wearing matching cold expressions and says they look more and more like a married couple. But Yinzhen thinks something is off, and feels a pang of jealousy.
Later, Yinzhen hears that his wife is planning to run away. In that case, he can just lock her up.
Lingxin: No, no, no to coercive love!
