(This book is the first volume of Xiao Lou’s Three Rivers Trilogy, titled Ask the Eastward Flowing Water)... more>>

“Since ancient times, all things flow eastward like the river; Where do they go, and where do they come from; Pondering brings little clarity.”

Li Qingluo, a young girl from the Celestial Empire who grew up in the mountains of Jingnan, becomes separated from her family due to the chaos of war. To find her father’s whereabouts, she disguises herself as a man and joins the Celestial Empire’s army. By a twist of fate, she becomes acquainted with General Xiao Shensi and the army medic, Lin Guiyuan, forming a deep bond of friendship.

During their journey to find Qingluo’s father, both Xiao Shensi and Lin Guiyuan gradually uncover her true identity as a woman, and feelings of affection naturally arise. However, the unpredictability of life unravels a web of mysteries as the they travel from the northern deserts, to the bustling capital, and then to the remote villages of Miaoxi:

What is Lin Guiyuan’s connection to the Yan Emperor?

What memories has Xiao Shensi lost over the years?

And what secrets are hidden within Qingluo’s increasingly enigmatic background?

Though seemingly unrelated, these threads draw the three of them closer together as if woven by fate.

Yet, from the royal bloodbath of a past dynasty, to the emotional entanglements of the disciples of Sword Valley twenty years ago, and the palace intrigues of the Celestial Empire sixteen years ago…

Deep-rooted desires, entangled love and hate— where will they lead? Please ask the eastward flowing river — in the face of such parting emotions, which lasts longer, which fades away? <<less

One day, my sister breaks up with the male lead.... more>>

I couldn't bear to see her all gloomy, so I took it upon myself to find that knight.

The plan was simple: deliver my sister's sincerity and patch things up.

However, when I finally reach the place, that knight is nowhere to be found...

"I don't care if you're a man or an alien anymore."

"Well, actually, I am an alien!"

"That just makes it even more exciting."

Instead of meeting the person I want to see, I met a crazy man.

* * *

It was a dreadful first encounter. I was trembling with fear, but I couldn't let myself give up just like that. Determined, I chose to quietly observe and bide my time, waiting for the perfect opportunity to meet the male lead alone, just like a shadow.

However, a small problem arose.

"It's better to give up."

"What do you mean all of a sudden...?"

"I have no intention of just watching while you turn your attention to another man."

It seems like this crazy man was seriously misunderstanding something.

* * *

I am Charlotte La Bravant, a woman who never gives up.

After much effort, I achieved my goals and quickly escaped, basking in the joy of success. And why wouldn't I succeed? I’m the younger sister of the esteemed Marquess Bravant, also known as the dazzling rose of the high society after all!

"Did you think you could escape and I wouldn't find you?"

"H-how did you...?"

"You've become even more beautiful since I last saw you. So, was that man's embrace warm?"

"What?"

The duke's eyes grew more intense as he said that. <<less

‘The weak exist to be robbed by the strong.’

Akhtan, a desert country where the brutal history of invasion and massacre lives and breathes. Prince Kyle who had been living in suppression under the long reign of terror of Emperor Khalifa, the Sun God, was suddenly forced into a political marriage.

‘What kind of marriage is this? It’s nothing short of kidnapping… Why me…? What sin did that princess commit to deserve this?’

The princess of Calderaia who appeared at the wedding, held in just a week, was the most beautiful person he had ever seen.

Although her eyes, sparkling like jewels, were filled with inexplicable hostility. <<less

One of the top expert killers, tired of endless assassinations and having survived a cruel and suppressed life, decided to escape the world’s strictest assassin organization.... more>>

A chance came during one of the nights when the organization was least prepared, and he fled. However, he discovered that the night he escaped was the night when the organization had sent out many experts and ability type users to capture a phoenix weakened by its rebirth. Eventually, when surrounded and knowing that his situation was hopeless, he desperately shot at the ability user blocking his way. This helped the phoenix break out of the encirclement and grant him his one and only wish – freedom.

The assassin’s soul was sent back to his ten year old self. He woke up at a point in time that would allow him to drastically change his fate – he killed the two assassins that picked him up and brought him to the organization.

Thus, he began a brand new life.

Two naive little girls and one experienced boy living together and filling their days with warm memories of childhood… <<less

Yan Chuan was frail and sickly, and in order to survive, he participated in an unlimited variety show.... more>>

Contestants receive different identity cards, enter horror-themed variety shows to play roles, and earn points to redeem tasks.

Chuan is sick and weak, beautiful, as fragile as glass, pale, and incompatible with horror variety shows.

So when the audience first saw Yan Chuan—

"Cannon fodder, one game and he's out."

"Looking at Zhou Zhi, in infinite variety shows, they don't care about appearances; the boss kills without considering what the contestants look like."

However, the identity card that Yan Chuan received was—

A money-worshipping lover who plays both sides, a women's clothing anchor who scams money, a greedy and foolish little thief, and a person overwhelmed by his wife...

Audience Silence: Is this a horror variety show?

In the dungeon [Apartment Building 13] , the contestants enter the apartment building and lie down with NPCs who are indistinguishable from humans or ghosts...

Yan Chuan became the one who gently deceived his wife. "I can't count the number of people on the pillow; how do you know who is lying next to me?"

When night fell, a gentle and handsome man lay beside him, trying to determine if it was his "husband," when there was a knock at the door.

"Your husband isn't home, is he?"

The "husband" lifted a cold, shiny knife. Just when the audience thought Yan Chuan was going to be eliminated, the boss's knife slashed at the knocker outside, and a fight ensued.

The boss turned back, arguing while fighting: "I'm his husband!"

The audience was shocked: "Why is the boss fighting for the players?"

Yan Chuan shook his head honestly: "I don't understand either."

In the dungeon [Shutter Island Prison] , the contestants hide from monsters that emerge at night and must deal with the warden during the day.

Yan Chuan became a little thief dissatisfied with the prison guards and attempted to attack the warden, hoping to gain their protection.

Trembling and pale, he tried to complete his mission and obtained the prison map from the most ruthless warden.

It was obviously very clumsy acting, yet he deceived the guards and the warden so effectively that the audience, who initially thought he would be eliminated, fell silent...

"Catch more, catch more, we love to watch!"

"Which boss is coming to snatch his wife today?"

"Actually, it's all about your looks, right?"

I had possessed the body of the pretty bottom in a 19+ BL novel.... more>>

“I like you.”

Where the male lead turned villainous, threatening to bring about the end of the world. A hopeless place.

“I’m serious.”

To prevent him from going mad, I tried to differ from the original story.

In the original story, his craziness stemmed from the pretty bottom’s complete disregard for him.

So, I confessed first.

Expecting to be rejected.

“I have someone else I like.”

“Yeah, I know.”

In the original story, his confession was brutally trampled upon by me, leading to him turning into a villain.

“I’m a guy too. And so are you.”

“I know that. I just wanted to say it.”

I was relieved knowing he would reject me.

“Can we still be friends?”

He frowned and then sighed before answering.

“Huh.”

I smiled wistfully in relief.

Because I was turned down.

“This is my fiance.”

“What do you mean engagement between men?”

When he questioned me in confusion, I cheerfully responded.

“Actually, I’m a woman.”

I assumed it would be okay since he had rejected me countless times before.

“What?”

The moment I saw the surprise in his eyes, I realized something was terribly wrong.

The vivid madness flickering in his gaze was something I had never seen before. <<less

After an accident, a cute female ghost started haunting me.... more>>

But why is my body becoming more and more like a girl's?

Damn! This is an insult to my noble integrity!

...But it actually feels kinda nice. <<less

The new emperor likes him, the prime minister and generals in the court admire him, and the late emperor even had the Astronomical Bureau fabricate the absurd lie that marrying He Xulan would cure his illness, just to make him the lord empress.... more>>

As for Xueya, he is merely a substitute used by those who can't have He Xulan to amuse themselves.

At first, Xueya only wanted to survive, even if it meant wearing clothes meant for women. But then he discovered that his dreams could predict the future. In that future, he meets a tragic end, dying in the palace with his body wrapped in a straw mat. Wanting both life and wealth, Xueya decisively decides to replace He Xulan. Thus, he embarks on various paths of sabotaging He Xulan in various ways, even going so far as to sow discord between He Xulan and others.

**

But one day, when he sneaks out of the new emperor's palace late at night wearing a skirt, he encounters a drunk He Xulan.

The next day, Xueya sees the skirt shredded into strips...

From that day on, his skirts always end up shredded in He Xulan's palace, and he no longer needs to fake the marks on his body...

[Reading Guide]

He Xulan is the top, a heteros*xual man in the face of men other than the shou; facing the shou, he automatically bends like mosquito coils.

The top only likes the bottom, with an exceptionally thick arrow, which is not evident in the early stage and has no intimate behavior with others.

The bottom is a pretty fool. <<less

Ming Er is Lan Qi’s greatest rival in the battle for the Lanyin Biyue. He possesses profound martial arts skills and a refined, elegant demeanor.

Ning Lang is the one who was betrothed to Lan Qi as a child. His honesty and kindness surpass even those of Guo Jing, so he and Lan Qi are people from two completely different worlds.

In the struggle for the Lanyin Biyue, Lan Qi and Ming Er, amidst laughter and conversation, secretly plotted against one another with hidden schemes, yet gradually discovered a tacit understanding forming between their hearts. Meanwhile, Ning Lang’s promise “If you’re a man, we’ll become sworn brothers, if a woman, I’ll marry you, if neither, then I’ll remain by your side through life and death” causing Lan Qi’s icy heart to tremble for the first time…. <<less

But as she continued to live quietly, how did she become the Miss Ruyi whom everyone respected?

Wangfu Wet Nurse: The desolate patch of land in a corner of the side room is now green with vegetables. It seems this girl wasn't lying; she's the daughter of an old farmer.

Shen Ruyi: …

Clearly, he's an old man. She even thought the ox was too old, right?

“Send me back, send me back to that world right now-!”

“Outer god, someday an outer god will be our doom, we’ll all die!!”

The Crown Prince is dead, and the Great Xuan Dynasty is in turmoil.... more>>

The rebel army is at the gates.

To stabilize the situation and uncover the cause of death of her twin elder brother, Zhao Yan, Princess Changfeng, has no choice but to disguise herself as a man and take on the role of the Eastern Palace Crown Prince, facing the wind and shedding blood.

On the night she enters the Eastern Palace, the Empress repeatedly admonishes her, “As the only prince of a different surname in this dynasty, the cunning Prince Su has controlled the court and the military for many years. His ambitious nature must not be underestimated!”

Hearing this, Zhao Yan feels like she’s walking on thin ice every day, her heart pounding.

Until one day, Zhao Yan is ambushed.

When she wakes up, everything is chaotic, and there, the powerful Prince Su, with his disheveled hair and half-dressed attire, looks at her with his dangerously handsome and slightly raised eyes.

This is bad!

Zhao Yan’s mind goes blank, and she turns to run.

In the next moment, her sash is caught.

Prince Su sneers and his voice carries a hint of displeasure, “Running away so soon, isn’t that improper?”

“The Little Crown Prince” with ink-black hair scattered and a pale face stammers, “I… I’m going to review the memorials.”

“Sure.”

The man leisurely hooks her hair strands, his voice low and hoarse, “As the Crown Prince reads memorials, I shall read the Crown Prince.”

——–

People used to say that the naturally rebellious and unruly Prince Su has changed his ways, no longer causing trouble or rebellion, but instead assisting the Crown Prince. He stays overnight in the Eastern Palace every day and even shares a bed with the Crown Prince.

Who would have thought that one day, it would be revealed that the Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is actually a girl disguised as a boy, causing turmoil in the court.

The whole court is in an uproar, and everyone speculates that Prince Su will seize this opportunity to overthrow the imperial power and take over.

However, during the court interrogation, Prince Su, draped in a black cloak, bows in front of the civil and military officials, reaching out to hold the delicate fingertips of the young girl.

“Don’t be afraid, let’s move forward.”

His voice is stern yet reassuring, as he calmly states, “If anyone dares to speak ill, I’ll kill them; if heaven obstructs, I’ll defy it.” <<less

“Reporting to the boss, Li family’s young master asked Young Master Si out for a meal.”

“Shut down his family’s hotel.”

“Reporting to the boss, Young Master Si and Wang family’s little crown prince have fought.”
