My Princess Consort Keeps a Favorite? I'll Take the Enemy Crown Prince as My Lover

Black-lotus, bewitching beauty of a princess, x, sinister, ruthless, scheming crown prince of an enemy kingdom; political intrigue, two equally powerful leads, intense push and pull, possessive love On the day of their wedding, the consort made the princess perform the wedding rites with a chicken, then left with his mistress to campaign on the frontier. Feng Qinglan turned around and took a male companion for herself. He had sharp brows and bright eyes, with a lively gaze, and loved nothing more than staying by her side. They enjoyed three happy years together. When her consort returned to the capital, Feng Qinglan stuffed a stack of banknotes into his waistband. “Pei Lang, my consort has returned to the capital. This is the end for us.” As a princess, she was noble and proud, cold and heartless. No one could ever move her. That was, until she and her consort were invited to the emperor’s welcoming banquet, where she met the highly sought-after Prince Cheng’en. He looked exactly like the male companion she had kept for three years. She heard he was a hostage prince sent by an enemy kingdom, too. He had used his mastery of playing the innocent to become the first prince of a different surname in the kingdom. She lavished money on him to win him over, but he remained indifferent and shamelessly flirtatious. All he offered her was temptation. “Your Highness, ‘prince’ is only a title. If I can stay by your side, I’d even be content to be your lover.” Temptation? He thought his disguise was flawless, unaware that he was the very person standing in the way of her bid for imperial power. Her gaze was cool and dismissive. “Your Highness, you’re overdoing the act.” He dropped his flirtatious facade and trapped her in a narrow space, his presence commanding. “You and your kingdom will both end up belonging to me.”
