CompletedThe synopsis begins with Liu Qingqing, whose mother passed away early. She grew up in the Lin family under difficult circumstances. Her father and brother were biased, her stepmother was unkind, and her legitimate sister was spoiled. Fortunately, before her mother passed, she had arranged a marriage contract for her with Xie Lang, the heir of the Marquis's mansion. They were childhood sweethearts. Although Xie Lang was cold, aloof, and a stickler for rules, he always prioritized her over his legitimate sister. She adored him and thought, couldn't she warm his heart after decades? However, she accidentally overheard him talking with her father and brother, saying, "Qingqing is gentle and elegant, but inferior to Qingying." Qingying was that good? Everyone doted on Qingying. She originally had only him, but now she had lost everything. Her heart grew icy cold. That night, she hid in the bamboo forest and wept bitterly. The last tie binding her to this prosperous capital was gone. If she was inferior to Qingying, then she would give Qingying to him. Xie Lang noticed his wife had changed. She began to refuse intimacy, which they had had twice a month. She used to dislike being in the spotlight, but now she would hide in back alleys to chat with her cousin who had returned from the northwest, and accept a brocade box from him. He had someone fetch it at night; inside were three exquisite pills. He sent a servant to fetch a physician to verify them. One was for contraception, one was for faking death, and the purpose of the third was unknown for now.
Another day, he heard his wife probing her younger sister. "If I were gone, would you be willing to enter the mansion to accompany the Lord?" Her sister shyly responded, half-refusing, half-inviting, "What kind of companion?" His wife's smile remained as gentle as ever, "Of course, the kind of companion one grows old with, staying together forever." Behind the bamboo forest, Xie Lang crushed a teacup. Didn't she know the meaning of a first wife? The story is slow-paced, set in an alternate historical period, focuses on emotions, and has a Happy Ending.
Pre-order "Forgetfulness River": Liu Xiyue and Xie Lancuan were childhood sweethearts with deep affection, and their families were awaiting their union. Disaster struck, and Xie Lancuan, as expected, shielded her with his life. Liu Xiyue emerged unharmed, but Xie Lancuan fell into a coma. Upon waking, he suffered brain damage and could no longer perceive emotions, including his love for Liu Xiyue. He was a gentle and self-disciplined gentleman. After waking, he treated her kindly as always, but both were exhausted. A winter and summer passed, and he suddenly became distant and cold, saying, "I cannot mislead you like this. You should find a gentleman who truly loves you," rather than being by his side, always feeling dejected. "Truly loves you? Who else could it be but him?" she said, "I don't mind." "But I do," he repeated softly, "I do." Later, she fell and her skirt was soaked with blood. She sent a servant to find him to pick her up. He didn't come. By the time the blood had congealed, and dawn broke, she still hadn't seen him. That night was truly cold, just like his heart. She decided to comply with his wishes, grant him freedom, and accept her elders' arrangement to travel south to Jiangnan to recuperate. Xie Lancuan heard that the Liu family was looking for suitors for her, including the new noble General Fu and Young Master Li from the Grand Tutor's mansion, all good families. She had been delayed by him, and this was how it should be. But why did his heart ache so much when she was boating on the lake with someone else? They met again at a spring banquet when Liu Xiyue, mistakenly drugged, stumbled into an empty palace. Hearing someone follow behind, she quickly turned around and saw him. She used her remaining strength to close the door, her voice sharp, "Don't come over!" She bit her trembling lip and said, "Please have Lord Xie help me find him. General Fu or Young Master Li from the Grand Tutor's mansion would do." "Find someone for what?" he heard himself ask softly. She didn't answer him, but let out a choked sob, like the song of a spirit bird. Xie Lancuan, his hand on the door, froze and clenched his fist, then suddenly laughed. They could all do it, but he couldn't?

In the fourth year of Dingyuan, Prince Xiao Yu of Northern Li married Princess Weiyang of Southern Qiong to form an alliance. However, on the day before the wedding, Princess Weiyang eloped. In a hurry, the ruler of Southern Qiong chose a county princess from the imperial clan to impersonate the "Princess Weiyang" and marry into the Cheng Wang's mansion with the title of "Princess Consort." Su Wanyue was this unlucky county princess, and no one knew that she was scheduled to be engaged to the second son of the Prime Minister's family, her childhood sweetheart, in the following month.
After marrying into the Cheng Wang's mansion, Su Wanyue lived cautiously every day, hoping that the Cheng Wang would achieve great deeds soon, and at the same time hoping that the imperial family would find her cousin soon to restore everything to its original state. The world knows: "The Prince of Cheng and the Princess Consort have a harmonious relationship, deeply in love." Finally, in the sixth year of Dingyuan, Prince Cheng, Xiao Yu, was made Crown Prince and given supervisory powers, and Su Wanyue naturally became the Crown Princess Consort.
Who knew that on the day before the conferment, Su Wanyue's identity as a county princess of the imperial clan was exposed, causing an uproar in the court. The Emperor was furious and handed the case to Crown Prince Xiao Yu for handling. Su Wanyue knew she could not escape punishment. With a pale face, she resolutely knelt before Xiao Yu: "I am willing to bear all consequences alone. Please do not punish others." Xiao Yu suddenly let out a cold laugh: "After I deal with you, who will our unborn child call mother? Or are you waiting for your fiancé to save you?"

Shen Zhiyi, from the elegant and renowned family, possessed unparalleled beauty. From birth, she was enfeoffed as a county princess and raised under the empress, having a childhood sweetheart relationship with the current crown prince. Everyone knew that Shen Zhiyi was destined to become the Crown Princess, as the Crown Prince treated Shen Zhiyi more intimately and gently than his own sister, Princess Ziyang. Among all the ladies in the capital, only Shen Zhiyi could capture the Crown Prince's attention. In her maiden years, she eagerly awaited marrying her Crown Prince brother. But who knew that in the fourth year of Zhaohua, the Duke of Anguo's mansion was accused of colluding with the enemy and treason, and the whole family was imprisoned. Shen Zhiyi was among them, and the person who presented the evidence of rebellion was the Crown Prince himself. In the fifth year of Zhaohua, the Crown Prince personally sent a poisoned cup that took Shen Zhiyi's life. In the same year, the Crown Prince married and had children, and the Duke of Anguo's mansion was annihilated.
***
Upon waking, Shen Zhiyi became the concubine of the eldest son of the Duke of Yue's mansion, her distant cousin. The eldest son of the Duke of Yue's mansion, Qin Heng, was of noble birth and impeccable character. At the age of adulthood, he took his distant cousin as a concubine due to his elders' orders. He knew well that his cousin was timid and shy, and vowed never to take another wife. After his cousin entered the household, he doted on her like a precious jewel. In the spring of the second year of Zhaoqing, a 'strange case' occurred in the capital, concerning the Crown Prince's palace. The Emperor ordered Qin Heng to investigate the matter. Who knew that this investigation would point to... the woman by his side. That night, the main hall of the Duke's mansion was brightly lit. The couple, who had appeared "loving" in the past, tore off their pretense for the first time.

Copywriting:
In the third year of Jiancheng, a favored concubine appeared in the harem, the fifth daughter of the Marquis of Chengjing's mansion. As the daughter of an imperial tutor, she was given charge of the six palaces upon entering the palace and was deeply favored by the Emperor. But only Su Shining knew that this favor was merely a transaction. Su Shining was frail in her youth and was raised by her maternal uncle's family, where the climate was always spring. Her uncle's family had a brother, his adoptive son, who was as refined and talented as the breeze and moon. He treated Su Shining, his sister, exceptionally well. In her childhood, he patiently taught her calligraphy, and when he returned home as an adult, he always brought gifts for Su Shining. But in the first year of Jiancheng, Shen went to the capital to participate in the imperial examinations and unexpectedly died. The perpetrator behind the scenes might have been the eldest son of the Duke of Guo's mansion, the current Empress's elder brother. However, the Duke of Guo's mansion held great power, and ordinary officials could not deal with them. Coincidentally, on that day, the Emperor visited the Marquis of Chengjing's mansion. A young woman in a plain dress with a beautiful appearance appeared before the Emperor and curtsied gracefully. The Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly. The next day, an imperial decree was issued to confer Su Shining as a concubine to the Marquis of Chengjing's mansion. The day before her ennoblement, she reached an agreement with the Emperor: he would allow her to investigate the truth behind her adoptive brother's accidental death. She would balance the various forces in the harem for him. He would grant her the favor of the six palaces, but would not love her, nor would he make her Empress. However, the first to break the contract was the Emperor, who governed diligently and enjoyed the submission of the populace.
***
When Emperor Jiancheng first met Su Shining, he only thought she was cunning and intelligent. After she entered the palace, he used her without hesitation. But later, after unintentionally favoring her once, he found himself somewhat addicted. Later, he took the initiative to break the contract and personally presented the position of Empress to her. By then, the Emperor tasted regret for the first time.

【Main story completed, extra chapters are being updated~】
*The high and mighty bow their heads; the gentle beauty becomes ruthless.
*Initially, he saw her only as a tool, never expecting to love her to the bone one day.
Mingwu had always secretly liked Lu Yuan. He was the powerful Prime Minister who held sway over the world, with unparalleled handsomeness and immense authority. She, on the other hand, was merely a merchant's daughter, not favored.
She thought they would never cross paths in this lifetime. Yet, unexpectedly, she had the chance to marry him. After their marriage, he remained cold, spoke little, and showed little affection. Even in their intimate moments, his eyes remained cold.
But she believed it was just his nature. As long as she treated him well, he would eventually come to love her.
Until he brought another woman back, allowing her to reside in the courtyard reserved only for the principal wife. She pleaded for a long time, but he never granted her his calligraphy, which that woman then shamelessly hung in the main hall.
Only then did she realize that it wasn't his nature; he simply didn't love her. He had merely married her because her unique constitution was suitable for cultivating the Li Gu poison. Once the poison was mature, her blood was to be given to that woman.
-
Lu Yuan was emotionally detached and ruthless, dedicating himself entirely to state affairs. Matters of romance were, to him, the most superfluous things.
Until—she lay quietly on the bed, allowing the Li Gu to drain her blood, her eyes devoid of light. At that moment, he, who had always been as steady as Mount Tai, panicked. Disregarding the consequences, he interrupted the cultivation of the poison.
He thought he still had a chance to compensate, but never did he expect her to be so resolute. A great fire consumed everything, leaving behind only her most treasured, charred cosmetic box, filled with letters she had written to another man. Lu Yuan experienced the torment of jealous rage for the first time. From then on, he was plagued by nightmares and tormented daily.
-
The next time he saw Mingwu was at Ning Wang's wedding banquet. The wind lifted the red veil, revealing a face etched with yearning and obsession. She swept her gaze over him indifferently, as if he were an irrelevant stranger. Lu Yuan's eyes instantly reddened, his heart consumed by madness...

1. The male lead is pure in body and mind (emphasis!). HE ending.
2. The female lead is a beautiful magnet, beautiful but unaware. She will become ruthless later.
3. The male lead is a scoundrel in the beginning, humbly playing second fiddle later. A mad and tragic, ultimate crematorium experience.
4. Fictionalized Southern Song Dynasty, very loosely based.
————Next up: "After Divorce, the Young Lord Went Mad"————
Xiao Jingcheng and Li Su were childhood sweethearts. Though he was reserved, he remembered her birthday every year and was the first to reach out when she fell.
She thought he cared for her. Until, on their wedding day, he brought home an orphaned girl. She, his new wife, became the biggest joke in the capital.
The orphaned girl intentionally damaged the engagement token he gave her and publicly humiliated her at the banquet. When she merely said a word to the orphaned girl, he turned his face cold towards her. “Li Su, when did you become so harsh?”
Later, on the orphaned girl's wedding day, he publicly took her away before everyone's eyes. Even so, she still held a sliver of hope. Until she personally saw him teaching the orphaned girl to read, his brows revealing a gentleness and patience she had never seen before.
At that moment, Li Su finally saw clearly—he didn't love her. “Xiao Jingcheng, let's divorce.” Since he has no heart, I shall leave.
-
Xiao Jingcheng was the young lord of the Duke's mansion, noble and aloof, with abstinence and propriety ingrained in his bones.
No one knew he was reborn with immense hatred. In this life, he intentionally brought back the orphaned girl and deliberately showed favoritism, intending to repay a hundredfold the humiliation she had inflicted upon him.
He succeeded in seeing the light in her eyes gradually extinguish. He thought he would feel triumphant soon. But when news of her marrying someone else reached him, he panicked so intensely that he snapped his writing brush.
He rushed into her bridal chamber regardless of the cost, only to see her wearing a phoenix coronet and robes, jointly drinking the wedding wine with Li Zhao beside her. She looked up at him, her eyes calm and placid, as if looking at an unrelated stranger. Xiao Jingcheng felt as if his heart was being torn apart, the pain almost making him unable to stand straight. He hoarsely begged her: “Su Su… come home with me.” “Young Lord Xiao, please show some self-respect.”
-
Li Zhao was the adopted son of the Li family, Li Su's nominal elder brother. No one knew the obsession he harbored for her in his heart.
In his previous life, he used all sorts of means to get her, but ultimately lost her. Upon opening his eyes again, he had returned to a time before she hated him. He suppressed the madness surging in his eyes, smiling with increasing warmth and clarity. This life, he would find another way to become the gentleman she liked best, radiant and upright.

When Shen Mi was fifteen, her father and brother died in battle. Overnight, only she remained of the Shen family. Orphaned and alone, her childhood sweetheart married someone else.
To comfort the meritorious officials, the Emperor conferred upon her the title of Jia Ning township mistress and decreed a marriage to the Crown Prince, Gu Zhan, as his concubine.
Gu Zhan, the legitimate eldest son of the current Emperor, was appointed Crown Prince in his youth. He was dignified, upright, and steady, possessing a virtuous reputation.
Shen Mi knew she had no support in her current situation, so she put away her former self and acted gently and considerately towards Gu Zhan.
Though Gu Zhan held no marital affection for her, their relationship was one of mutual respect, which she found sufficient. She even began to develop feelings for him.
Therefore, no matter how late Gu Zhan returned from handling state affairs, she would patiently wait with a lamp, never urging him or losing her temper.
Before long, she became pregnant. Everything was going too smoothly, making her believe that her life still held hope. However, the imperial physician's diagnosis of "false pregnancy" shattered all her illusions.
Gu Zhan said coldly, "I despise deception more than anything in this life."
This was her first experience with such an event, and she didn't realize she was being framed. She tugged at Gu Zhan's sleeve, wanting to explain, but he violently threw her hand away.
From then on, all her previous careful efforts became useless.
*
She originally thought Gu Zhan was born with such a cold and aloof disposition. But one day, she went to his study to deliver soup and overheard his conversation with a subordinate.
"Miss Su and His Highness were childhood sweethearts with deep affection. Does His Highness wish to submit a memorial to welcome her as the main consort? Or directly establish her as Empress after ascending the throne? After Concubine Shen has a child, their son can be raised by Miss Su."
She cautiously waited for Gu Zhan's reply.
Instead, she heard Gu Zhan say, "I will consider this matter further."
Shen Mi froze completely, then quietly left with the soup she had personally prepared.
That night, Gu Zhan did not return to their chambers as usual. Shen Mi, however, did not sleep at all.
She was once pampered by her father and brother, treated as their precious pearl. She was not born inherently quiet and uninteresting.
She, who once never lifted a finger to do chores, had learned excellent cooking skills to survive under Gu Zhan's roof.
She thought that sincerity could move mountains, but she didn't expect that Gu Zhan wouldn't even want to leave her anything.
She shouldn't have harbored any illusions about Gu Zhan.
She began to plan how to escape this man-eating Eastern Palace.
*
Initially, Gu Zhan had no real feelings about the arranged marriage. He merely thought that if the Shen氏 was willing to be obedient, it would be harmless.
After marriage, Shen氏 was indeed as he expected: obedient and sensible. Thus, he found the fear of a wife and the chaotic bickering of other married couples utterly nonsensical.
However, one night when he returned home a little late, he heard news of a fire in their sleeping quarters. By the time he rushed over, the pavilion had collapsed. His Shen concubine was buried within, her remains not even forming a complete body.
His heart felt an emptiness. From then on, he found it increasingly difficult to sleep at night. Only by holding the sachet Shen Mi had embroidered for him did he feel slightly better.
Four years later, he was ordered to quell a rebellion and stopped at a teahouse in Runzhou while passing through.
The teahouse proprietress served him tea, saying, "Please enjoy, sir."
When he looked up, he met those eyes he had longed for day and night.
He grabbed the person's sleeve and softly called out her childhood nickname: "Zhi Niang."
The proprietress hastily dodged, "Sir, you have the wrong person..."
He curved his lips slightly, "Since you believe I'm mistaken, why do you avoid looking at me?"
A resilient white flower x a cunning Crown Prince.

1. 1v1, double virgin, HE (Happy Ending).
2. The Eastern Palace only has the female lead. The matter of her being a concubine is related to political considerations mentioned in the main text; do not take it out of context.
3. The male lead is a remnant of feudalism, has no feelings for the female lead initially, and does not behave properly. He will face retribution later; proceed with caution if this bothers you.

Pre-order: "Running to My Deceased Husband's Brother" Synopsis
Gentle and resilient noblewoman x cunning and sinister warlord.
Nine years after marrying her husband, Ying Laiyi was forced to separate from him due to war, and her husband's fate was unknown. While fleeing from rebels, she escaped into Liang Prefecture, held by the renowned and meritorious General Lu Ce.
Lu Ce was her husband's half-brother. It was rumored he was an outcast in the family in his early years, which led him to abandon literature for the military. After ten years of campaigning, he had become a regional lord.
Initially, Ying Laiyi was worried that Lu Ce would resent her due to the mistreatment he received from the Lu family in the past. Therefore, she always restrained her demeanor and spoke cautiously in front of Lu Ce.
Lu Ce also never called her "Sister-in-law," only referring to her as "Miss Ying."
She knew she was already living under someone else's roof and dared not ask for more. She could only think of Lu Ce in all matters, large and small, to repay his protection.
*
Before coming to Liang Prefecture, Ying Laiyi had heard that Lu Ce was ruthless. At first, she thought it was a rumor. It wasn't until she received news of her husband and intended to go to him, but was stopped by Lu Ce, that she realized she had never truly known Lu Ce.
Lu Ce asked her, "Where are you running off to? Didn't you promise me you would stay?"
She sensed Lu Ce's improper intentions and replied with pursed lips, "Lu Ce, I am your sister-in-law."
Lu Ce, however, cornered her against the wall, "We are both of the Lu clan. If older brother can, why can't I?"
*
From having nothing to becoming a warlord in chaotic times, Lu Ce never paid heed to romantic affairs.
Until he saw that young woman among a group of disheveled refugees and his heart stirred.
He pointed in her direction from afar, and his subordinates understood, making an exception to let her into the city.
At first, he merely intended to use Ying Laiyi's name for reputation and to gain popular support for his ambitions.
Later, he put on the act of a proper gentleman in front of Ying Laiyi and executed a subordinate who coveted her. Yet, she still planned to look for that useless brother.
In that case, he couldn't be blamed for building a golden cage for her, ensuring her eyes and heart could only see him.

CompletedSynopsis: Xu Heng publicly reprimanded Wang Yuying, saying that even as Empress, her nature hadn't changed; she was still a mean, vicious shrew!
Afterward, Wang Yuying didn't restrain herself. When Xu Heng visited the Imperial Consort again, she went to the consort's chambers and cursed loudly, even slapping Xu Heng.
That month, an imperial decree was issued deposing the Empress. "Empress Wang is arrogant and jealous, injured the Emperor, has no heirs, and requests to enter a Taoist temple. She is bestowed the Dharma name 'Repentance, Yujing Miaojing Immortal Master.'"
Three years later.
The Emperor missed the Wang family. He sent a musical piece, singing of their time as young lovers, to the Taoist temple, with clear intentions of recalling Wang Yuying to the palace.
Inside the curtains, a man with sharp features and a tall, sturdy build, contrary to his usual demeanor, leaned into Wang Yuying's embrace like a puppy. "Outside... there are envoys here to summon you."
He held her waist tightly, burying his head in her chest, silently asking: Will you go back?
Wang Yuying patted the man's narrow waist. "Don't worry, even if his ancestors for eighteen generations come to summon me, this old lady isn't going back."
"What if His Majesty forcibly takes you?"
"He won't have the chance." Wang Yuying sneered. She had learned from three years of experience and immediately replied to Xu Heng with a song of harmony.
The lyrics were deeply sorrowful, yet they clearly stated her condition: if he wished to summon her again, he must reinstate her as Empress.
A year after her deposition, Xu Heng had already established a new Empress. As a sage emperor, he naturally could not agree to her demand.
Xu Heng thought that if he couldn't reinstate her, meeting her was still possible. If Wang Yuying wouldn't come, he would go to the Yuqing Temple to see her and slowly work on her.
Xu Heng watched the pair on the bed in the temple. Wang Yuying rose, put on her slippers, and donned her robe, without a hint of panic.
His mind exploded. He recalled so many years ago, when they knelt side-by-side. He had said, "If I betray Yingniang in this life, and take three wives and four concubines, or remarry after losing my wife, I shall die a violent death!"
She had also said, "If I become a wife to another man again, I shall not have a good end."
They had broken a pair of white jade pendants, each keeping half as a token of their oath.

------ Pre-order story "The Courtesan and the Lord" please collect ------
Everyone knows that the current Emperor, Yan Zhengqing, favors his full sister, Princess Liyang, granting her every wish.
Liyang fell in love with a handsome scholar who placed third in the imperial examination, but he was already married. His wife was a former courtesan who had reformed.
How could a golden branch and jade leaf share a husband with a woman from the brothel?
Liyang pleaded with her imperial brother. Yan Zhengqing then issued an imperial decree, ordering the scholar to divorce and marry the Princess.
Unexpectedly, the scholar's original wife blocked the imperial carriage in the street, accusing the Emperor of abusing his power, breaking up a loving couple, and being unworthy of being the Son of Heaven for his unjust actions!
Yan Zhengqing, sitting in his carriage, coldly thought: Since you don't wish for a divorce, then be granted death.
He said to the original wife, "A pair of jade arms have held a thousand pillows, a single vermilion lip has been tasted by ten thousand tongues. Do you even deserve to talk about love?"
Later, he discovered that she truly no longer spoke of love. No matter how he pleaded, she did not love him.
(The female lead is a virgin with other men, the male lead is not; a story of regret and burning.)

CompletedEveryone knew Yun Xi liked the Prince of Huai Ling. The Prince of Huai Ling sneezed, and she immediately climbed over walls to deliver him warm fox fur. When the Prince loved ink, she traveled thousands of miles, injured and battered, to obtain a prized inkstone. However, the Prince of Huai Ling did not like Yun Xi; he couldn't even stand her peripheral vision.
That day, when bandits held knives to the necks of Yun Xi and Cen Yu Wei, and the Prince of Huai Ling had to choose one, he did not hesitate to choose Cen Yu Wei. He said, "Yun Xi, Yu Wei has been delicate and easily frightened since childhood, but you are not, understand?" Yun Xi understood perfectly. After all, Cen Yu Wei was his childhood sweetheart, his precious darling, while she was thick-skinned and wouldn't even feel pain if her head were chopped off.
As expected, the assassin let Cen Yu Wei go and swung his sword at Yun Xi's neck. Everyone believed Yun Xi was dead, and even the Prince of Huai Ling thought so. However, Yun Xi did not die. She lived freely and happily far from the capital, even marrying the person she loved. But on her wedding day, she encountered the new Emperor on a clandestine visit. The moment the wind lifted Yun Xi's bridal veil, the new Emperor's expression turned frenzied. Losing his regal demeanor, he stumbled forward and dragged Yun Xi out of the wedding sedan. "Yun Xi, how dare you lie to me! How dare you, how dare you..."

Those eyes, full of springtime affection, had once only looked at him, belonged only to him! He took Yun Xi by force, clipped her wings, and locked her in his harem, thinking that by showering her with a little affection, she would naturally fall back in love with him as devotedly as before.
But he never considered that she truly no longer liked him. She even pointed a long sword at his neck, threatening to kill him if he didn't release her ex-husband?

No reviews that try to preemptively warn about tropes are accepted; commentary will be deleted if you make assumptions. If you don't like this type of story, please stop here; this is not an emotional dumping ground for anyone.

Fu Peng had always believed she was the most favored disciple of the Tai Xu Sect. She had a loving Master, a junior disciple who always clung to her, and she married the Senior Disciple admired by countless people. Her life was happy and complete. Until the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder roared in the sky, her Master personally scattered her cultivation and bound her with a spirit-binding rope before her husband. "Husband... save me." She thought the man she had been married to for a hundred years would save her. But her husband's sword cut directly through her spiritual core. After her death, her last wisp of soul saw her Master and husband bringing another's soul into her body. So... her Master and junior disciple were good to her only because she had a rare Yin Jade physique that could revive the Second Senior Sister who had died early. Therefore, she deserved to be usurped and her soul scattered? Even her husband marrying her was a meticulously planned scheme – her devotion was the medicinal guide, and her scattered soul would forge his supreme sword heart.
Before Fu Peng's last consciousness faded, she saw... the Third Senior Disciple, whom she despised and who had fallen into demonic ways, disregarding life and death, charging into the Tai Xu Sect with his sword. He was doing everything he could to avenge her... finally losing his cultivation, covered in bloody holes, he crawled to the side of her cenotaph, breathing his last. His hand, having half its palm severed, gently caressed her tomb,
CompletedLu Yuanyuan was an insignificant disciple of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. She liked Duan Lansheng, a young sword cultivator from the same sect.
Duan Lansheng was the son of a fox spirit, born into humble beginnings. He was as beautiful as a banished immortal, cold, and emotionless.
Lu Yuanyuan pursued him with all her heart, offering him warmth and using all eighteen methods, but Duan Lansheng showed little interest in her.
Later, due to an accident, she broke Duan Lansheng's Dao body, and finally married him as she wished.
After the incident, Duan Lansheng put on his clothes and looked at her coldly. Her fellow disciples secretly gossiped that Lu Yuanyuan was manipulative and shameless, taking advantage of his vulnerability, and that Duan Lansheng married her out of obligation.
Lu Yuanyuan knew she had intruded improperly and had done wrong.
The beginning was terrible, but she optimistically thought that with the passing of time, as young couples often softened, true feelings would emerge. She resolved to work hard and not let Duan Lansheng regret spending his life with her.
But the ancestors' teachings were not without reason.
A forcibly twisted melon will never be sweet.
A hundred years later, Duan Lansheng, as a half-demon, faced his heavenly tribulation and soared to become a Sword Immortal in the Upper Immortal Realm, one who swept across the eight directions and vanquished ghost emperors.
Lu Yuanyuan became the wife he killed to prove his Dao just before his tribulation.
Lu Yuanyuan died and was reborn, only to discover she was a transmigration female supporting character.
In the original book, Duan Lansheng had always been infatuated with the Senior Sister of Shu Mountain and found Lu Yuanyuan, this toad who clung to him midway and manipulative married him, utterly disgusting.
*
Reborn and returned to the year they first met, facing the thin teenager on the execution platform, framed and punished, covered in whip marks, Lu Yuanyuan still chose to walk towards him, holding an umbrella for him and delivering medicine.
But this time, she would not stumble in the same place again.
Much later, on the day of Duan Lansheng's heavenly tribulation.
Under his dazed and pained gaze, Lu Yuanyuan was one step ahead, sending her sword into his chest and kicking him off Li He Mountain.
Killing each other once was fair.
This life, it was her turn to embark on the path of cultivation, and he would remain in the mortal world.
From then on, let bridges be bridges, and roads be roads; they owed each other nothing more.
【Before rebirth: an action-oriented love-struck fool; after rebirth: a determined woman focused on her career. A soft girl who turns dark vs. a man who initially acted like a dog and later suffered, who eventually realized his mistake but it was too late because his wife no longer wanted him - a proud, aloof man.】
*Tips:
1. The male lead is Duan Lansheng. This is a melodramatic HE (Happy Ending).
2. The male lead truly liked the Senior Sister. However, he only had intimate relations with the female lead in both lifetimes.
3. This is a melodramatic story of "abusing your wife brings temporary joy, chasing your wife brings eternal suffering." It abuses the female lead first, then the male lead.
Readers who do not enjoy this genre, or who wish for the male and female protagonists to love each other from the first chapter, be mutually doting, and only have eyes for each other, should stop here.
4. There are both male and female antagonists. Writing female antagonists does not mean the author dislikes women or promotes female competition, and the same applies to male antagonists. Characters only serve the plot; gender does not impose limitations. Please distinguish clearly between fiction and reality.

A scheming beauty seduces a cold, powerful official, breaking his restraints. The cold official later goes insane.
Cui Yiluo possesses a stunning, opulent beauty with skin like jade and ice, but she lacks family backing and has endured hardships under her stepmother until the age of seventeen.
A marriage contract, with her beauty as a bargaining chip, is arranged by her stepmother to marry her off as a second wife to a sixty-year-old man.
But she has never admitted defeat.
After lodging with the Jiang family, she set her sights on the most noble and well-mannered man in Shengjing.
The Jiang family is influential, and the person in power is Jiang Yunjin, her nominal cousin. He is pure and upright, cautious and diligent, holding a high position and great power at twenty-one, with decisive actions.
He is the most proper and the most detached.
However, she is determined to break his decorum and draw him into lust.
But as her wedding date approaches, Jiang Yunjin still treats her with indifference.
Just as she was seeking an alternative path, a servant at a banquet discreetly offered her wine infused with a strange fragrance.
Cui Yiluo swirled the wine glass, a slight curl at her lips.
That night, the red curtains were disheveled, all propriety discarded, and the man softly moaned in her ear with restraint.
When dawn broke, Jiang Yunjin looked at her tear-filled eyes with a somber gaze and stated solemnly: "I will marry you."
Cui Yiluo successfully escaped her impending marriage as she wished. However, even after they married, Jiang Yunjin remained cold, except for in bed.
She advanced inch by inch, playing the part of a gentle woman, her heart solely focused on completely destroying his rules and making him fall.
Because she loved seeing him driven to desire, his breath unsteady, his eyes filled with longing.
But she knew clearly that apart from a few moments of desire, there was no affection between them.
Until the day she was intercepted on her way out of the capital.
A man, as tall and straight as bamboo, blocked the sunlight. His handsome, deep face, shrouded in shadow, was menacingly cold.
He slowly pressed her against the hard carriage wall, leaving her no room to retreat. His well-defined fingers lightly traced her cheek, and he said softly, "Where do you want to go, Ah Luo? Why not continue to deceive?"
"You wanted to abandon me for him back then, but in the end, you still chose me. Since you chose me, do you think you still have a chance to find him?"
Cui Yiluo completely destroyed his rules, but she never expected that after breaking free from the constraints of his discipline, he would be so ruthless beneath his outwardly cold facade.
The room door was locked, leading to extreme absurdity.
The doors and windows vibrated; Cui Yiluo was pressed against the door panel, enduring him.
The man's eyes held an unyielding, dark intensity. His voice, dark and hoarse, gripped her jaw, "Isn't this what you've always wanted?"

To reiterate, the female lead in this story is not a perfect character. If you dislike her character, please stop reading. There are countless other good novels.
