Latest Imperial Court Novel

The main story is complete. The next book will be "After Falsely Posing as the Young Secretary of the Grand Court of Justice".

A plump, genius beauty meets an influential Regent King who can kiss and fight.

Zhou Chuanxing entered the battlefield at thirteen, became a great general at eighteen, and pacified the land by twenty-three.

At twenty-four, he was appointed Regent King in a time of crisis, acting as the emperor's regent.

The world knew him as a brilliant strategist, decisive and ruthless, a monster who showed no mercy to women. Once, a beauty climbed into his bed, only to be beheaded by his sword!

One day, a foolish young girl burst into the Hall of Diligent Governance. Her skin was as white as snow, her bones like jade, and her beauty so ethereal it seemed otherworldly.

Standing beneath a bookshelf, she spread her arms to the Regent King, who was known for his aversion to women, and said, "Hug me!"

Prince Duan had never seen such a beauty, but he worried intensely for her. To dare to storm the Regent King's study, to demand a hug flirtatiously, and to reach for his books – ten lives wouldn't be enough to pay for such a transgression.

The next moment, Prince Duan watched with wide eyes as the Regent King bent down and lifted the girl into his arms.

The young girl was still not satisfied, her soft, melodious voice laced with a hint of accusation and displeasure, "That's not how you hug!"

Prince Duan feared the Regent King would unleash his fury. It would be a shame to kill such a beauty with a single stroke, so he thought it best to at least leave her a complete corpse.

Just as he was about to rush over to intervene, he saw the cold and abstinent Regent King set the girl down. Then, with one hand, he gently lifted the little beauty onto his shoulders.

What happened next was even more astonishing. The Regent King, the iron-willed and stern man, awkwardly asked the girl sitting on his shoulders, "Is this right?"

After the beauty left, the Regent King ordered an investigation into her identity.

Prince Duan was swift. Within an hour, he placed the detailed information on the table.

"Her entire family was executed. She is the daughter of a criminal, has mental issues, and is foolish!"

Prince Duan felt a sense of pity. His second brother's heart of stone had finally softened for a woman, only for fate to keep them apart.

The next moment, he heard, "Even if she's foolish, I still want her."

Prince Duan couldn't help but worry, "You'll eventually marry a principal consort, and there will be other side consorts and concubines. A girl like her will surely be bullied."

Zhou Chuanxing said without hesitation, "Then I'll only have her."

Prince Duan had one more thing to mention, "That girl is the cousin of the Marquis Wu'an's heir. They've already been intimate..."

Later, Zhou Chuanxing schemed and schemed until he finally married her into his home.

At night, he kissed her eyes and brows inch by inch, his jealousy suppressed though palpable, demanding, "Am I better, or is cousin?"

The young girl, afraid he might go mad, replied, "Of course, you're better!"

Zhou Chuanxing's eyes deepened, "How am I better?"

The young girl wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his protruding Adam's apple, "You can lift me onto your shoulders with one hand. No one else can do that."

Zhou Chuanxing sighed inwardly. He supposed it couldn't be helped. She was the first man to lift her onto his shoulders anyway.

Oh right, and the only one!

Later, the young girl truly couldn't bear it anymore, softly crying and begging him to stop.

Zhou Chuanxing felt wronged, "You were the only woman I've ever had, and I have no experience. Please be more understanding!"

Reading Guide: The female protagonist is not a virgin. The female protagonist is physically and mentally adult and a genius in mathematics!

Her elder sister, in order to have her younger sister replace her in entering the palace, directly climbed into her sister's husband's bed. This is because entering the palace has only one outcome: death.

Unexpectedly, Mi Shan has also been reborn. With a small stratagem, she conquered the Emperor's heart and won over all his princes.

She achieved a flowing dynasty and an unshakeable empress. The harem was filled with struggles, love unrequited, and everyone had their unspoken words.

The Emperor's heart was cold; people and demons alike were merely seeking something for themselves.

What Mi Shan missed most were the days when she idly raised蛊 worms and planted flowers and grass in the harem...

-

Li Changyu said, "You and I are both extremely hypocritical. I don't trust you, and you don't trust me. This poison is newly developed by me, try it."

But unexpectedly, the seemingly ordinary medicine was actually a heart-devouring poison. Once it took root and grew within her, it would be incurable.

Within ten days, she had to find the poisoner to cultivate together. If one person suffered from longing for the other, the other would simultaneously feel a heart-gnawing pain. If one person died, the other would also die from a broken heart.

Mi Shan had no choice but to be bound with him. Watching her clear descent into infatuation, Li Changyu thought he could remain aloof and unmoved forever, only to find that in the end, it was he who lost completely...

"Shan'er, don't go." Redness filled with desire completely dyed his eyes, and from then on, he could only see her image, unable to let go.

Shen Yuan was abandoned in the wilderness at birth and suffered greatly for eighteen years. The only light in her life was a weak scholar. He taught her to read and write, and she gathered herbs to sell to fund his pursuit of fame.

She thought they would stay together like this for life.

Until Chu Yu Ning achieved top honors in the imperial examinations, becoming the top scholar and parading through the streets. Meanwhile, she was reduced to slavery, becoming a lowly criminal slave in the princess's mansion, one who could be trampled upon at will.

She was even forced to kneel by Chu Yu Ning's bedside during his wedding festivities, listening to the sounds of him and Xiao Yun Yan, and preparing his bath and clothes for them.

She wanted to resist, but was drowned alive in the Jingxin Lake during winter by Chu Yu Ning and Xiao Yun Yan.

Eighteen years of her life felt like a joke.

How could Shen Yuan accept this?

Upon opening her eyes again, Shen Yuan found herself back before Chu Yu Ning had taken the imperial examinations.

In this life, she wanted to see if Chu Yu Ning could still achieve his dream of becoming a top scholar without her financial support!

But by accident, Shen Yuan was pulled into the arms of the man sitting on the dragon throne. "Among the three candidates of outstanding quality, which one do you find most pleasing to the eye, Yuan Yuan? I'll appoint him as the third-place scholar."

Shen Yuan looked at the unfamiliar list before her and waved her hand, "Your Highness! Stop fooling around!"

Qi Yu transmigrated to ancient times and found herself in a desolate mountain, needing to play the role of a substitute supporting female character to return home.

After leaving the mountains, she encountered an eunuch who was selecting beauties from all regions to send to the palace.

In the original book, the male lead, Wu Shiyan, who was the emperor, was infatuated with his minister's wife. He intended to use trickery to obtain her, so he cultivated a substitute concubine in the palace. He waited for the opportune moment during a palace banquet to swap the substitute with his beloved, thus naturally bestowing immense favor upon her.

The substitute was to enter the minister's residence, feigning death from illness. Thinking of the original book where she enjoyed the treatment of a favored concubine in the palace, received solicitous care in the minister's residence, and had vast sums of money to squander after faking her death, Qi Yu accepted the eunuch's persuasion and entered the palace, where she was successfully enfeoffed as a concubine.

From then on, the world knew that Consort Yu was deeply cherished by the Emperor, receiving unparalleled favor, and no one in the capital dared to slight her. The only criticism was that Consort Yu bore a striking resemblance to Madam Pei. People spoke of it in hushed tones, and it eventually became commonplace.

Finally, the long-planned palace banquet arrived. The emperor's consorts accompanied their husbands, entering the palace for the feast. Amidst a chaotic assassination attempt, the startled female guests were led to a resting palace by palace maids.

Qi Yu switched identities with the female lead, waiting to feign death in the inner chambers and deceive the civil official. However... the civil official did not recognize her as a fake. Instead, he held her wrist, called her 'Madam,' and wished to dote on her as usual...

Qi Yu, nestled in his arms, had a hint of confusion in her eyes. Weren't Minister Pei and Madam Pei an unloving couple? They could deceive the Emperor, but they couldn't deceive her.

*1v2, two emotional lines proceeding in succession.

*Fictional setting, a mishmash of dynasties.

With the new emperor's ascension to the throne, Li Xingyi, leader of the Wulin Alliance, plans to enter the palace to avenge his death by getting close to Empress Dowager Shi Hui. However, an unexpected imperial edict instead names him as Empress. On their wedding day, details abound, and Li Xingyi feels an inexplicable familiarity with this emperor.

Unknown memory fragments and moments of their time together constantly tell Li Xingyi that this emperor definitely has some connection to him. A dream, familiar memories, the truth is revealed.

Li Xingyi: 'I... did I know you before?' Qi Dou was stunned, 'You... don't recognize... me?' His eyes reddened slightly.

In this world, love will surely have its hardships; amnesia is for meeting you again and getting to know another side of you.

One accident after another deepens the relationship between the two, and only after recovering their memories do they realize that there were things too difficult to say and everything was hard to discern.

With two empresses vying, Li Xingyi gets his revenge, ruling the empire with grace, becoming a wise empress for the ages.

The story isn't long, but it covers all matters here, and tells of a love that lasts through long-term companionship.

This is my first attempt at writing a novel; the ending isn't great, so read with caution.

A physically unhinged beauty vs. a loyal young general. From the female protagonist's perspective, Yuan Ming could never understand how a tyrant could be reborn. She should have remained in Avīci Hell, facing her retribution.

She didn't understand—death, the most impartial thing in the world, yet when it came to her, it became unfair. She wasn't worthy of it. She allowed herself to dance with bloodshed, just like in her previous life, but as a human, the instinct for survival was ingrained in her nature, so she struggled between self-destruction and self-salvation.

What Yuan Ming didn't know was that although she appeared insane, her actions were always guided by her personal code of ethics. Perhaps, only at the end could she reconcile with herself, but that is merely a 'perhaps'...

Note: In her previous life, the female protagonist was a noble princess, but due to her older sister's schemes, she fell into the mud, enduring inhumane torture, left physically crippled and disfigured. She later returned to the empress's throne like a vengeful ghost crawled from hell, her heart riddled with wounds, becoming bloodthirsty and tyrannical.

From the male protagonist's perspective: In my previous life, I walked on thin ice as a minor general, fighting against foreign enemies and corrupt court officials. After much struggle, I discovered that my childhood idol had degenerated into a tyrant. For the sake of the people, I then had to campaign against her.

However, halfway through, my own father appeared, viewing me as a family disgrace, calling me a rebellious traitor, and seeking to take my life. After enduring countless hardships, I was disfigured, lost my comrades, and finally broke into the imperial city. I had intended to persuade my idol to turn back, only to find that she had committed suicide!

--- Important Reminders ---

1. The female protagonist is a bit mentally unsound; she truly has a disorder.

2. The female protagonist has a slight 'Mary Sue' quality; several male characters secretly harbor affection for her, but she is career-focused and doesn't care.

3. The male and female protagonists do not truly end up together in the end, but all main characters achieve their desires, making it a good ending. Please be aware of this if you mind. (It is implied that a romantic relationship is not the main focus.)

4. The author currently plans to organize the outline and save the entire manuscript. This novel will definitely be completed. If you enjoy it, please click to favorite it!

Jiang Sheng was reborn. He was reborn two months before his family's downfall.

In his previous life, his meridians were severed, and he lingered on for decades, finally seeing the truth behind his family's destruction. Yet, with imperial power supreme, he was powerless to seek revenge and died filled with resentment.

Opening his eyes again, he was reborn on the eve of his coming-of-age ceremony. With a mysterious space in hand, his father and elder brothers had not yet been harmed by villains and trapped to die on the battlefield. Everything was still salvageable.

In this life, he would kill gods if they blocked him and Buddhas if they stood in his way. His only wish was for his family to live in peace and joy, even if his own hands were stained with blood.

The emperor was foolish, persecuting loyal officials, and an era of chaos was about to begin. Since the loyal Jiang family met no good end, he would overthrow the imperial power and establish a new dynasty.

In her previous life, Shi Mingyue escaped her marriage to Grand Prince Fu Yueli and eloped with someone else. Unexpectedly, she entrusted herself to the wrong person, ultimately dying of illness in a foreign land.

Reborn on the eve of her elopement, this time she resolutely turned back and married Fu Yueli. She knew Fu Yueli was born blind, but she didn't mind. She also knew that after her elopement, Fu Yueli had not married for ten years and remained alone. She thought she had hurt him. Therefore, she decided to accompany him well in this life and make amends for her mistakes in the previous one.

What Shi Mingyue didn't know was that after her death in the previous life, Fu Yueli, who had endured and laid low for years, unexpectedly became the emperor. Yet his imperial harem remained empty. Three months after ascending the throne, he abdicated, shocking the entire nation. Later, he came to the border, dug up her grave, and brought her remains home, allowing her to finally return to her roots and no longer drift alone...

Synopsis: This is a story about a beautiful and feisty, outwardly delicate princess of a fallen kingdom and a white-cut-black "crane-like" gentleman from an enemy state. It features a high-profile figure driven mad by love, a teacher-student romance, and textbook-level female teasing male. The original title was "My Sir Insists on Sneaking Around."

Everyone said that Mr. Qu from the Directorate of Music was like a crane on the eaves, naturally cold and aloof, strictly adhering to teaching regulations, with fingers untouched by worldly dust. Chu Qingluo was merely one of his many students, nothing particularly special.

Yet, when he taught the zither, he always liked to place his white jade ruler against her wrist: "Your finger bones are too stiff; how can you play 'Winding Softness'?" After everyone dispersed, she would hook her pinky finger into his palm, her eyes tinged with the red of a begonia: "Sir, would you teach me how to 'wind' my fingers?"

"Rule number ten of the Directorate: One must not... transgress." Chu Qingluo hooked his burning fingertips to her heart, her trembling lashes gazing into his cold, deep-pool-like eyes: "How about... Sir, you first teach me what it means to transgress?" The Sir gripped her misbehaving wrist, his Adam's apple subtly moving.

"So audacious, aren't you afraid I'll expose your identity as a remnant of the former dynasty?" "Sir wants to expose me?" Chu Qingluo's smile was like poisoned honey, her gaze at him full of meaning. "—Do you have the heart to?"

From then on, by day he was the upright and elegant Sir, and she was the gentle and respectful student. But when the class ended, beneath the jade desk, her wide cloud-brocade sleeves, like dark undercurrents of flowing clouds, quietly covered his plain white sleeve, slowly intertwining and caressing.

He gradually came to believe this was mutual affection and sought an imperial marriage decree for her. Before the Lingning Palace, the imperial edict shone brightly. Yet, she knelt gracefully beside the Ninth Prince, her eyes shimmering with tears. "Your Majesty, as you can see, this humble maiden and His Highness the Ninth Prince have long been in love... I hope, Sir, you will grant us your blessing." The entire hall was in an uproar; it was his first time losing his composure.

Later, Qu Hanjin intercepted her on the official road, his long robe reeking of alcohol. His jade crown was askew, with no trace of his former elegance. "Why must you go with him?" He bit her earlobe, every word steeped in blood. "You want to rebel... I told you, I can help you too."

Later, on the day of the grand ceremony, Qu Hanjin personally handed the longsword bestowed by the Emperor to his most cherished disciple. "The Imperial Seal you desire, the nine-layered palace you wish to burn, the old kingdom you want to restore... I will give them all to you." He bit the golden hairpin in her hair, letting the string of pearls brush his brow. "Now, it's time for you to claim me." (#I use the zither as a blade to cut down all those who have wronged her.)

[Mini Theater]"Everyone says Sir Qu is as bright as the moon and clear as the wind..." She traced his brow bone with her blood-stained fingertips, "Why must you insist on being my accomplice?" "I wonder how historians will write about Sir?" Qu Hanjin bit open the ties at the woman's neck. "They will write that Qu cultivated elegant music for half his life, and upon encountering a destined calamity, willingly broke seven strings for a beauty."

Reading Tips: This story features a beautiful and feisty, outwardly delicate princess of a fallen kingdom and a white-cut-black "crane-like" gentleman from an enemy state. It's a female-teasing-male teacher-student romance, but straight (BG). The female lead seeks revenge, and the male lead stands by, handing her the sword, with their tacit understanding at its peak. It has a Happy Ending (HE) and both leads are strictly chaste (SC). In the early stages, the female lead seduces the male lead for utilization, without true feelings. Later, she is relentlessly pursued by the male lead, with many subtle interactions in and out of class. The Directorate of Music in the text is a private institution established to revive the "Land of Propriety." Young ladies entering the Directorate are there to study, not to earn a living; they leave after a few months. The male lead is an official from the Ministry of Rites, a reclusive strategist (historically, zither players held very low status). This novel doesn't have much political intrigue; it mainly focuses on romance, supplemented by revenge. There's no need to delve deeply into the political parts.

Synopsis: Main story complete. [White-cut-black dignified noblewoman × Crazy, cunning, love-struck emperor]

Zhao Qingyi, from a prestigious family, married down to the impoverished scholar Li Che. For twenty years, she managed the household, assisted her husband in becoming a Grand Secretary, and raised her adopted son to achieve success, only to be rewarded with a gut-wrenching poison and a divorce letter. Her adopted son ridiculed her for "a magpie occupying a dove's nest," usurping the position of his true mother. Her cousin, who was also a concubine, stole the imperial title she had painstakingly earned, and her mother-in-law publicly spat on her, calling her a jinx who brings misfortune to her husband. Only then did Zhao Qingyi realize her life, spent in painstaking effort, was nothing but a joke.

When she opened her eyes again, she was back at eighteen, the third year after her marriage to Li Che. Zhao Qingyi smirked, touching her temple. In her previous life, the Li family rose because of her; in this life, they would fall because of her. She would throw a divorce letter in Li Che's face. Later, Li Che knelt, begging her to return. Zhao Qingyi smiled, "Too late, I already have a kept man." Li Che: "!" He didn't believe it and swore to find that scoundrel! Finally, one day, he discovered that above his own attic, red silks swayed, and an ambiguous atmosphere permeated. A woman was nestled in a man's embrace, her figure like water, her hair slightly askew, her head tilted slightly. It was none other than his dignified, gentle, and proper... ex-wife. Li Che was furious, but his legs went weak when the man turned his head. "His, His, His... Your Majesty?!"

Chu Yuanhe ascended the throne in his youth and fought in the northwest, leaving his imperial harem empty. Yet, rumors circulated that he had long harbored a beautiful kept woman outside the palace. Upon hearing this, Zhao Qingyi rubbed her aching back, looking vexed, "Exactly who is whose kept man?" Clearly, she was the one who bought the residence and supported this man! "That's not important," the young emperor bit the soft flesh of her nape, his voice hoarse, "I offer the empire as my betrothal gift; when will my lady grant me a proper title?"
