The Consort’s Schemes 1: Tangling With the Bewitching Masked Consort

Qing Yue, the second daughter of the Qing family, was mocked throughout the land for her ugly, unremarkable looks, all because of the black lotus brand on her right cheek that resembled a withered skeleton. But no one knew who the brand truly belonged to. The emperor arranged the marriages: Qing Yue was to become the third prince’s consort, marrying Prince Han, the fool known to all; Qing Shang was to become the first prince’s consort, marrying Prince Shun, the strongest contender to become the next emperor. A marriage contract, just a few brief words, yet it set everything in motion. Some rejoiced, some sneered, some frowned, while others watched with indifference... A struggle for power at court, with the throne as its prize, and a family battle to claim leadership of the Qing clan began to unfold with this marriage agreement... And that fool caused her to suffer one wave of pain after another, yet she never realized what deep mysteries lay behind it all. Zhan Yebing, seemingly innocent but truly a little devil who wreaked havoc wherever he went and the fourth prince of the Blue Key Dynasty; the domineering, arrogant first prince Zhan Yeshun; the seductive, bewitching evil physician Huangfu Rui; and the deeply resentful consort of the Black Cloud Kingdom, Shang Ying: all fell before her cool composure and cold heart... But... For him, she willingly gave up the most precious thing a woman could possess: her chastity. For him, she willingly married Prince Han, the fool known to all. Little did she know that the man who had taken her first time was actually... Because the seed of love planted long ago had grown into vines that wound around her heart, binding her burning heart tight. In this pursuit of passion and love, who hurt whose feelings, and who deceived whose heart... ▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼▼ [1] Please add this to your favorites!
