Xiao He unexpectedly gained a criminal cheat skill that allows him to learn all kinds of crime-related abilities.

—But the catch is, he has to keep “stabbing people” to stay alive.

Xiao He: …I was a perfectly fine college student, who the h*ll wants to be a criminal?!

Huh? There’s actually a loophole!

By chance, Xiao He triggered a bug in the cheat skill. He figured out a way to substitute real crimes with acting performances and broke into the entertainment industry as a professional villain!

He’s actor Xiao He!

—At first, Xiao He was just trying to survive by constantly taking villain roles.

But unexpectedly, he rose to fame with his so-called “nonexistent acting skills” and became one of the hottest award-winning actors in the industry!

Everyone in the business knows: the more people a script’s character kills, the faster Xiao He accepts the role.

But outsiders say: He doesn’t look like he’s acting at all—better investigate him thoroughly!

Even the fans are saying: Bro, please stop killing people! I’m seriously scared you’ll end up in jail!

Yet, while the real “cancers” of the industry kept getting arrested, the one who looked most like a villain—Xiao He—kept thriving, even sweeping awards like crazy.

Eventually, everyone was like: Whatever, let him stab people on screen for us. Just give him space.

When the逍遥樓 (Carefree Tower/Xiao Yao Lou) appears, a wise ruler emerges. Is it because of the wise ruler that the Carefree Tower, silent for centuries, reappears? Or is it because of the Carefree Tower that such an unprecedented wise ruler emerged?

There is no effect without a cause, yet how many people in this world can distinguish between cause and effect? Who can be sure that today's cause is not yesterday's effect?

Zhao Zhen: If one day your heart belongs to someone else, I... will bless you.

Zhan Zhao: I originally thought she was naturally uninhibited and didn't care much for decorum between men and women, but I never expected that for my sake, she would suffer such grievances.

Xuanyuan Tianyi: Fire blinded my eyes, but it cannot blind my heart... Heh heh, a thousand years have passed, and I ultimately cannot escape.

I've been revising the previous text recently because the original intention of this story was to write about Zhao Zhen, an emperor whose death brought tears to the eyes of all Kaifeng citizens. However, as I wrote, it gradually became a story about Zhan Zhao. Since that's the case, I will write about Zhan Zhao.

Thus, I've made significant changes to the plot and character personalities. Those who have read it before might want to take another look.

Before Ji Qingzhou went abroad for his doctorate, he asked An Yi if she would be his girlfriend. This surprised An Yi. Perhaps it was because she had left a message saying "I like you" before he left school, or perhaps there was simply an empty spot beside him.

Ji Qingzhou and An Yi weren't close before. If we had to describe their relationship, she was his junior, and he had supervised her thesis during graduation. Later, An Yi and Ji Qingzhou still weren't close, even though he was her boyfriend for a year, she didn't even know what flowers he liked.

---Column ending soon---

Cai Hua, a cauliflower snake, encountered the empire's chief eunuch on her very first escape from home. This eunuch forced her to return home with him, bought her clothes and gold, and even tried to claim kinship:

"By rights, you should call me... brother."

Playing like this? She went even further: "Godfather!"

The eunuch: "...Shut up!"

Then the eunuch was mocked by another person inside his body. She thought: he's laughing, he's enjoying this! The eunuch’s face turned dark:

Don't just call me godfather, even if you call me father, I can handle it!

Later, Cai Hua discovered the eunuch's astonishing big secret—two people lived inside his body! To save the other personality, she painstakingly brewed the gathered herbs and presented them to the chief eunuch.

The eunuch's eyes were bloodshot: "Are you trying to kill me?"

Cai Hua: That depends on your fortune. The eunuch picked up another bowl and brought it to Cai Hua's lips: "Then let's die together!"

Cai Hua was eager: "If you die and I don't, can I inherit your estate?"

The eunuch wept in the middle of the night: I raised her, castrated myself for her, searched for her for six years, yet she only cares about my money...

Also known as "Shan Shan Marries Liang" and "Daily Life of an Ancient Lady Painter."

The younger brother experiences a marriage of convenience, followed by a love chase and a "crematorium" (painful pursuit of reconciliation). The elder brother attempts to seize his brother's wife (but fails). The main text is written in the third person.

Updates are every other day at 3 PM.

Regarding Xue Shanhe, the Resilient and Independent Daughter of a Criminal Official: When I was almost reduced to an official slave, forced to serve men, it was Old Master Liang who saved my life. Therefore, I'm willing to do anything to repay his kindness.

It's alright if Liang Shao doesn't like me. It's also alright if we sign a divorce agreement on our wedding night. As long as Old Master Liang doesn't worry and lives a few more healthy years, I'll do anything.

For two years, I cared for the gravely ill Old Master Liang while secretly saving money. Once the Old Master passed away, I would honor my promise and leave with the divorce agreement. I planned to return to Jinling, rent a small courtyard by the Qinhuai River, and live by selling paintings. That sounded quite good.

The day after the Old Master's burial, I asked Liang Shao for the divorce agreement. His eyes widened, and his voice almost cracked, "You want a divorce?!"

He threw a huge tantrum and stormed out. But later that evening, he tiptoed into bed and hugged me, "Shan Shan, Grandfather's greatest wish was for us to have a child of our own. Let's fulfill the old man's dying wish before you leave, okay?"

Regarding Liang Shao, the Tsundere "Puppy" Doted on by his Grandfather and Brother: I, your young master, hate being controlled the most! If it weren't for Xue Shanhe, I would have decided my own marriage!

However, she is quite sensible. She readily signed the divorce agreement on the wedding night and even promised to leave immediately once Grandfather was gone. Good. I'll give her more money then, so she won't disgrace her status as my ex-wife.

It's just... having a woman in the house really feels different. My protective soft armor needs pink flowers and green leaves embroidered on it, and I need to bring a good luck charm when I go on official business... Tsk. She even secretly saved money, and only after much pressing did she shyly say, "I wanted to save some money to buy a top-notch soft armor for Second Master. When Second Master goes to Beimian in the future, it can protect him."

Would I, your young master, care for something bought with her small amount of money? That night, the wind was strong, and the divorce agreement blew over the candlelight, quickly turning to ashes. Oh well, if it's burned, it's burned. Writing another one would be too troublesome.

Regarding Liang Ye, the Upright and Self-Restrained Third-Place Scholar Brother: The first time I saw her, she was sitting beside Ashao, demure, with only a plain silver hairpin in her hair. I heard the servants say that her family was from Jinling, the only descendant of Grandfather's most favored student from years past. After her family was raided, Grandfather saved her so she wouldn't be enslaved.

I also heard that Ashao didn't like her, and he married her because Grandfather traded a chance to gain experience in Beimian for this marriage. But she seemed quite good to Ashao. When Ashao was drunk, she personally brewed hangover soup; when Ashao was injured, she cared for him tirelessly for two months.

Until that day, I accidentally found the divorce agreement in Ashao's study. So, all of this was just an act to repay Grandfather's kindness. Foolish Ashao, truly living in a blessed state without realizing it.

Later, after Grandfather passed away, she knelt before me: "I want to divorce Ashao, please help me, elder brother." Xue Shanhe, you came to my door on your own initiative.

It's a short story, don't mention morality. As the old saying goes, I'm just writing casually, and you're just reading casually. Love and peace. Contemporary setting.

Menghe was the least favored concubine in the imperial harem. Her looks were only considered fair, and her personality was bland, which displeased the emperor. Within the harem, concubines constantly vied for power, and Menghe was the one bullied the most.

Because Menghe was hastily sent into the palace by her biological mother and father, she understood nothing. Until she was plotted against and became pregnant. The emperor's indifference and the suppression and schemes from her 'sisters' in the harem made Menghe clench her fingers.

One day, at the entrance of the imperial study, Menghe seemed startled by a man striding towards her. Stumbling, like a fluttering butterfly, she fell onto the moon platform. Menghe's voice was pitiful, as if greatly frightened. "This concubine has offended Your Highness, please forgive me."

She hurriedly got up and left, but a pink embroidered handkerchief with mandarin ducks gently fell onto the man's black boots.

A warm and sunny day. The man stood behind the rockery and asked, "What does Meng'er seek?" Menghe's face flushed, and she said softly and earnestly, "After the emperor passes away, this concubine wishes to settle in Jiangnan and live a wealthy retired life." "I grant it," he replied.

When the emperor passed away, everyone trembled, expecting the man Chu Wangshu to ascend the throne. Yet, unexpectedly, it was the least favored Menghe who became the Empress Dowager, and her son became the emperor.

However, less than a year after the young emperor ascended, rumors spread: "The Cining Palace is overflowing with misconduct." It turned out the Empress Dowager remarried the Regent. Everyone shook their heads, thinking such corruption in the inner palace was no wonder she could become Empress Dowager.

At this moment, Menghe looked panicked and heartbroken: "You are a shameless promise-breaker! My son and I don't want your empire, quickly let us go!" Chu Wangshu's brows furrowed deeply; he firmly grasped the woman's fair wrist and thrust the imperial seal in his hand into the resisting hand of the young woman. "This subject replies to Her Majesty the Empress Dowager, 'Dream on'"

(Parallel universe, transmigration into historical fiction)

Jialuo transmigrated to become the first deposed empress in Qing Dynasty history, Borjigit. Historical records state that Emperor Shunzhi preferred simplicity, while Borjigit enjoyed luxury and was jealous. Furthermore, she was chosen by the regent, Dorgon, leading to discord with the emperor.

Jialuo plotted in her heart: it's fine for her to enjoy luxury, after all, her maternal family was powerful, so spending a little money was a minor matter. Jealous? Jialuo looked at the emperor, cold and distant on their wedding night, and wished she could swear on her fingertips that she had no feelings for him.

Thus, after marriage, she upheld her duties as empress, spending her days either 'recuperating' in a separate residence or 'privately visiting' the common folk, never bothering the emperor in the slightest.

Fulin ascended the throne at six and took full power at thirteen, becoming the first emperor after the Qing army entered the passes. He was deep-minded and adept at scheming. He had long been mentally prepared for the empress, Borjigit, but he disliked her. Fulin was busy with state affairs and rarely visited the harem, only having the impression of the empress as beautiful but extravagant and domineering.

Later, seeing the girl in the courtyard who laughed freely and brightly, with an open mind, he realized the empress in the separate residence was utterly different from the one in the palace. Slowly, Fulin's eyes could no longer leave her. He thought, if they could be together for a long time, holding hands for a lifetime would be acceptable.

But then he discovered his empress seemed to be waiting for him to become a monk so she could become Empress Dowager?

Yun Xi was displaced in the countryside for seventeen years. One day, she was found, only to tragically die on a rainy night.

She was forced to be a surrogate for her legitimate elder sister, ultimately dying from an abdominal dissection. Her adoptive parents were forced to hang themselves, and her own child was torn apart alive...

Reborn into this life, she looks at her parents before her, only feeling a terrifying chill in her heart. She chooses to once again walk this bloody path, donning the guise of a gentle, understanding beauty to enchant the outwardly cold Marquis heir, making him lose control and helping her rise to power.

As for her birth parents and the so-called legitimate elder sister, who only saw her as a tool to be discarded after use, she will not let a single one of them off! But... it seems she overplayed her hand with Shen Rang...

Inside the red silk curtains, Shen Rang's voice was hoarse, "You plan to abandon me after using me? Yun Xi, you're heartless." The Marquis heir, who could easily discern everything and refused to be used by anyone, was willing to bow down only for her, becoming the sharp blade in her hand, clearing all obstacles for her...
