You Are Not My White Moonlight

Before entering the palace, a fortune teller predicted that Lin Yuan had the "countenance of a noble person." Later, in the warm imperial chambers, the young emperor smiled as he held a brush, drawing a cinnabar floral mark between her brows: "I think the woman in this mirror looks exactly like someone."

"...Who?"

"The one I adore." Lin Yuan realized he had a white moonlight in his heart. It turned out that her supposed "noble countenance" was merely a slight resemblance to this distinguished lady. She treated these years as a spring dream, leaving behind a letter of silk. "Your Majesty, I have reached the age where I should leave the palace. May your journey be long and prosperous, and may I be well."

That day, the wind howled fiercely. The jade cup in the Xuan Shi Hall shattered into frost and snow. Xiao Xun searched all of Chang'an and traveled a thousand miles, finally meeting the person he'd longed for, who walked gracefully towards him. Her eyes were bright, her smile was charming, surpassing all previous memories.

In those smiling eyes, however, he saw another man, grand and distinguished. "And this is...?" "My fiancé, my childhood sweetheart." The hand beneath Xiao Xun's sleeve clenched the sword at his waist.

Xiao Xun lost his mother at a young age and ascended the throne as a child, controlled by powerful officials. Living under a shadow, he endured for many years, believing his heart had turned to ice. Until that day, under a dark sky and heavy snow, a palace maid stumbled and bumped into his chest. She smiled like the shining sun. It wasn't until she stood beside another man that Xiao Xun realized Lin Yuan's gaze towards him was warm, but devoid of romantic affection. He was the only one lost in her charm.

"Tell me, do you really like him?" Xiao Xun cornered Lin Yuan among the rocks of the imperial garden. The scent of Cangwu wine coiled around her ear. "Yes." "I don't believe you." He cupped her chin, his teeth nearly grinding together, "And I won't allow it!"

How could I be willing to fall into an ice cellar after seeing the warm sun of March? It was I who dwelled in the abyss for too long, mistaking the sun for the moonlight.

Pre-order "My Fifth Year as Empress"

The willful and flamboyant daughter of a powerful official VS a forbearing, deep-thinking puppet emperor.

With one cup of poisoned wine, Huo Yu woke to find the sunlight warm, illuminating the golden hairpin with attached mountain carvings by her bed, and the deep robes of blue and white on the frame. It was her fifth year as Empress. It was spring. At this time, her relationship with Emperor Xiao Zhan was like the melting of winter snow after years, evolving from respectful distance to harmonious bliss.

However, in the deep winter of this year, her father, the powerful official Huo Yan, passed away. The Huo clan, for crimes including embezzlement and selling official positions, were either forced to commit suicide or imprisoned. As the daughter of the Huo clan, Huo Yu was sent to the cold palace of Zhaotai Palace. With the wings of the Huo clan in court clipped, the Emperor gained full authority and changed the era name of the era to "Yuan Guang."

The doors of the Jiao Fang Palace opened. Footsteps drew nearer. The corner of a dark robe appeared from behind the screen. Xiao Zhan carefully held the warmed medicine and brought it to her lips. Huo Yu looked at his smiling face emerging from the rising steam, her hands involuntarily clenching the brocade quilt.
