My Beloved Subject, I'm Waiting for You to Claim Me

Orphaned as a child, Yun Xinran disguised herself as a boy and made her way through the streets. She could eat, drink, whore, and gamble like a pro, but was lousy at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. One wrong move, and she was sold into the palace as a eunuch. While trying to escape, she ran into the cautious Emperor Dugu Lian and, on a reckless whim, teased the scheming beauty, only to be tricked into guarding the city gate.

What’s virtue? Something you’re supposed to smash. What’s dignity? Can you eat it? Her motto was, “Clear water has no fish, and a shameless person is invincible.” Then, with a turn, she became the “incorruptible” young rogue Yun Qingfeng. She fooled around, talked nonsense, and played games among the princes and young noblemen. Watch her climb from a lowly city gate guard all the way to the position of chancellor.

“Keep acting cocky, keep scheming, keep setting me up. One day, I’m going to snatch you up and make you my wife!”

P.S. This is the story of a scheming emperor and a shameless woman. Watch the heroine thrive in the world of officialdom! Absolutely monogamous, and the heroine knows exactly what she wants. Her fighting power… will go up, I promise. [wipes sweat]

[The Male Lead Takes a Bath, and the Heroine Peeks]

Mist swirled above the bath, steam billowing into the air. His ink-black hair fell in unruly waves, his alluring eyes were neither quite open nor quite shut, and a drop of water still clung to his thin, crimson lips. A clear bead of water slid over his pale collarbone and fell, making the petals bob on the surface.

The drooling lovestruck girl raised an eyebrow and, forcing her voice low, said, “My dear subject, do you think I look good?”

“Hehe, well… Your Majesty, I was only protecting you, in case an assassin attacked while you were bathing!” the girl declared righteously.

“Oh? Then I suppose I ought to reward you?” He curled his lips in an utterly tender smile, his eyes radiating a bone-chilling cold.

“Haha, Your Majesty, there’s no need to be so polite. It’s only my duty… Ah! Your Majesty, please spare me!” The girl clutched her head and ran for her life as countless jets of water shot after her.

[The Eccentric Prince Proposes]

A tall beauty in a red dress clung intimately to the “man” in white and said in a sugary voice, “Brother Yun, will you marry me? I love you so much my heart aches. Brother Yun, if you’re an eagle in the sky, I’ll be the little lark you catch. If you’re a tiger on the prairie, I’ll be the little lamb at your lips. If you’re… Brother Yun, just eat me up. I’m so sweet and delicious.”

At last, the beauty finished her long speech and gazed at “him” with lovestruck eyes, stars sparkling in them as she waited for “him” to pounce and devour her.

“He” took a deep breath and replied with a pained expression, “Prince Lan, men and men shouldn’t get too close. Besides, look at my skinny arms and legs. I really can’t do it.”

“It’s all right. I can do it myself,” the beautiful prince replied with a sincere, confident smile.

Someone’s face instantly turned into a dark scowl.
