[Fake Eunuch, Real Princess VS Ruthless Emperor Bent on Revenge]

--

Everyone knew the new emperor had two kinds of people he hated most.

The first was the former emperor's line, who had usurped the throne and nearly wiped out the Chen imperial clan.

The second was the palace eunuchs, notorious for currying favor and manipulating the emperors during both the Chen and Rong dynasties.

Unfortunately, Yao Linle checked both boxes.

A pearl left behind by the previous dynasty, and a eunuch banished to the cold palace by the new one.

Yao Linle knelt before the hall she had once only dared to look at from afar. Behind her, snow and wind filled the sky as she shivered among the other eunuchs, kneeling outside the hall.

A steady fire burned inside, warm as spring, but the new emperor's chilling words made her feel cold to the bone. "Very well! Stay, then. Let us see how many days it takes me to kill every last one of them."

Yao Linle resigned herself and closed her eyes.

On the brink of death, she had no desire to struggle or plead any further. But by a twist of fate, she stumbled into a role as a mute, and it saved her from the new emperor time and again.

From then on, everyone in the palace knew that the eunuch-hating emperor had a handsome, soft-featured mute eunuch by his side, as obedient as an exquisite puppet.

Later, after a glimpse of her in Jiangnan, the emperor began looking at her more and more strangely. His rough, broad hand kept lingering at her neck, and Yao Linle had a feeling her life was in danger.

She had scraped by for years and had had enough of living in fear. She was ready to die.

But on the imperial bed, beneath the embroidered curtains, the emperor's feverish hand slid restlessly from her waist toward the waistband of her trousers...

In her panic, she felt a fierce urge to struggle for the first time, and a cold silver blade came to rest against her tender skin.

"Your Majesty! This servant begs only for death."

A furious roar erupted from beneath the curtains.

"Very well! I grant you death!"

When Gui Shuo was young, he watched his mother consort die after being cruelly tormented by a favored eunuch. Once he ascended the throne and killed his enemies with his own hands, he resolved to purge the palace of every eunuch.

Yet he never expected that, in the end, he would fall in love with someone so incomplete.

He was disgusted with himself, torn by anguish. He wanted to kill the source of this trouble once and for all, yet time and again, his heart softened and he let her go.

By a twist of fate, he uncovered her incredible deception. He should have been consumed by hatred, but instead, he could barely contain his wild joy.

The crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by death.

Since she owed him her life, it was up to him to decide what to do with it.

"Pardon My Escape"

[Abduction and Possessive Love, Unfriendly Brothers, A Rivalry for Her in a Chaotic Love Triangle]

Cheng Wenyue had lived freely for nineteen years, never imagining that one day she would be trapped in a little courtyard.

She had no roots, no support, and not even a name she could openly use here.

To survive, until she could master the rules of this era, she had to attach herself to a man with absolute authority.

Jiang Jizhou would do nicely.

She tested him, resisted, then played nice, before testing him again, resisting again, and then...

She repeated the cycle over and over until she got what she wanted.

But later, when she had lost her rights, her freedom, and even the name her parents had given her, she finally realized that all along, she had been nothing more than a little bird held in someone's hand.

She was the "good girl" confined to the Fengyue Pavilion, forbidden to go barefoot or wear her hair loose.

Cheng Wenyue was disgusted, but she had no choice but to serve him carefully while waiting for a chance to escape.

Later, a great fire burned away every trace of her miserable past, and at last she got the chance to start over.

Now that she was free, she was content even to wear rough clothes every day. She even cheerfully picked herself a husband she liked in the countryside.

He was a taciturn but exceptionally handsome teacher.

He treated her wonderfully, with tenderness and consideration.

Lately, though, she had only herself to blame for running her mouth and casually mentioning her "late husband." For days, he had questioned her over and over in bed, as if determined to dig up every last detail of their past together.

Cheng Wenyue put up with it for a long time. Finally, one day, after he had worked her over until she couldn't take any more, she slapped the bed and snapped,

"If you're truly bothered by the fact that I was married before, we can get a divorce right now."

The man across from her, his clothes half undone and his muscular chest exposed, immediately darkened his expression.

The candlelight flickered in the room, throwing shifting shadows.

For some reason, Cheng Wenyue found something strangely familiar about him.

A moment later, she suddenly understood. He looked exactly like her "late husband."

Tension crackled in the room, while outside a fierce storm raged. As Cheng Wenyue wondered whether she should keep standing her ground, a knock came at the door, as if to save her life.

She immediately made a run for it.

But after lightning flashed, she saw the tall figure standing outside the courtyard.

Th-this...

Why did everyone she saw today look like that scoundrel Jiang Jizhou?!

--

A little scene:

"You scoundrel, I'll..."

"Shh. My grandfather is your current father-in-law, sister-in-law. You'd better think carefully before you curse him."

"Mmph..."

"Why not marry me instead, sister-in-law? Then I'll make sure you can curse him to your heart's content right in front of him."

Content Warnings:

1. The story has several 1V1 relationships in different stages. The heroine has no sexual experience, while the male leads do.

2. Includes plenty of groveling, love-triangle showdowns, and melodramatic abduction and possessive love.

3. The heroine is transported into the past and has no family in the ancient setting.

4. The brothers are hostile to each other, with plenty of rivalry for her.

5. The story still leans toward a strong male lead and a weak heroine.

Theme: The road ahead is long, but it shines just as bright.
