In order to elevate my daughter to the position of Empress, I committed countless evil deeds. But in the end, she personally stabbed me to death… all for the sake of a worthless scholar. Now that I have been reborn, I no longer care about the throne or power. Whatever happens, happens. I just want to lie flat and take it easy!... more>>

The Empress: “The entire imperial court is filled with your supporters. Are you really just going to throw everything away like this?”

My daughter: “Since you promised to let me be with Liu Lang, can’t you at least get him an official position?”

To love someone deeply is to wish to imprison them with a golden lock.... more>>

When Duan Yelin first saw Xu Hang, he wanted to lock him up and hide his beauty in the golden house—in fact, he did so.

If he seized him by force, he is a robber; if he is being patient and indifferent, he will be meat in someone else's chopsticks.

Xu Hang was unwilling, but he wanted to live. There were still many things he had not done, so he finally entered Xiaotong Guan.

It's a long-standing battle.

Even after four years of entanglement, Xu Hang always seemed like a bowl of freshly brewed medicine, with a faint aroma, but only after drinking it could one know whether it was poison or antidote.

It was a long time later that Duan Yelin realized that what he had locked up was not a cold and arrogant golden sparrow but a cold and sharp golden hairpin. <<less

A talented individual who is respected by many and welcomed everywhere… Not at all!... more>>

A bloodthirsty battle fanatic who knows no defeat! However, he is usually kind and gentle, as well as a great boss and a subordinate who does not make a fuss!

That’s what people think of me, but in reality, I’m a sickly person who struggles to get by in everyday life, let alone in battles.

Due to excessive stress, I vomit blood.

If I’m shocked, I vomit blood.

Even if I’m slightly startled, I vomit blood.

For no reason at all, I vomit blood…

No, it’s about time everyone realized that I’m weak, but for some reason, they continue to have a strange misunderstanding about me.

So… I used to be strong—no, I still am, but for some reason my body was damaged and I can no longer use 100% of my skills? Is it because my body will be unable to withstand it?

And the reason for it is… a spell? A curse?

This is ridiculous! <<less

She, determined to shatter that suspicion, set out to captivate him.

It was about time to end it.

This hunting game, so much like love,

"How about switching over to me instead of that man?"

The calm, sunken voice caught her.

"What is your answer, Doctor?"

As his thumb pressed against her lips,

a small gap slowly opened, letting her breath escape.

The hot, tangled air swirled at the tip of her tongue.

"My answer is…."

Riche gripped the neat collar of his shirt.

The man let himself be pulled toward her without a hint of resistance.

One day, a little eunuch put on terrifyingly pale makeup and flirted coyly with the tyrant.... more>>

"Your Majesty~ Don’t you think I’m beautiful? You don’t like women, but how about me?"

The tyrant’s eyes nearly burst with rage as he immediately drew his sword!

One night, the little eunuch climbed onto the imperial bed, striking a seductive pose. "Your Majesty~ I’ve come to warm your bed~"

The tyrant once again lost it, "Guards! Execute him by lingchi (death by a thousand cuts)!"

The very day he transmigrated into the body of a fake eunuch, he was assigned as the personal servant of the ruthless tyrant.

For the sake of survival, and to rise to the top, he clung tightly to the tyrant’s leg!

Rumor had it that the tyrant was uninterested in women, so that must mean he liked men!

Clever as he was, he immediately embarked on a grand mission to seduce the tyrant!

Before:

The tyrant wanted nothing more than to chop that damn eunuch into pieces every day!

After:

The tyrant flipped the eunuch’s nameplate every night…

Sen Luo, utterly exhausted and sore: This wasn’t supposed to happen, okay?!

Before:

Tyrant: "Don’t touch me! Get lost if you don’t want to die! I have no interest in men!"

After:

During a heated debate in the imperial court, the tyrant silently pulled the trembling little eunuch into his arms, peeled a lychee, and fed it to him. "It was my fault. I was too rough last night."

The court officials instantly fell silent.

This is a crime against the heavens!!

When Qin Yan was five years old, she left the capital with her mother and went to the Pingxi Army under the command of her grandfather, Duke of Zhenguo, in the Northwest. When she returned twelve years later, things were different.... more>>

After the mother was attacked and disappeared, everyone in the Prime Minister Mansion only knew of Concubine Song, but not her mother, the honorable mistress. They only knew that there was only one Miss Nian in the mansion, and they did not know that there was also her, the only eldest young lady of the first wife.

The concubine took over her mother’s dowry and pretended to be rich and generous to win people’s hearts. The concubine-born younger sister, with the identity that belongs to Qin Yan, was mixed up like a fish in water in the circle of noble daughters in the capital, and she also intended to get involved with Qin Yan’s fiancé.

The people in Prime Minister Mansion thought that Qin Yan could only be at their mercy when she returned to the capital alone. However, they never thought that within a few days of returning to the capital, Qin Yan was granted the title of Princess of Zhaoren by the emperor and given a palace as the Princess Mansion.

When Qin Yan took back the dowry that belonged to her mother, only then did her father Prime Minister Qin and Concubine Song knew that Qin Yan was the owner of Yu Qingfeng, the first bank in Great Xia.

The City Master of Gu City, an important town outside the Northwest Pass, was known as the owner of Yu Qingfeng, the first bank in Great Xia which claimed to be able to reach half the national treasury.

I was the Crown Prince's favored consort. He treated me exceptionally well, but what he didn’t know was that I was a spy from an enemy nation.... more>>

For three consecutive years, I secretly sent out intelligence.

Later, when the Crown Prince ascended the throne and wanted to make me Empress, I couldn’t hold back any longer and went to meet with my contact.

"There was no task about becoming Empress in the mission! When can I leave?"

My contact was dumbfounded: "Huh? The two nations made peace three years ago. You didn’t know?"

I was dumbfounded too. Then, who had I been sending all that intelligence to over the years?

Late at night, the Emperor held me tenderly and said, "My love, let me read you a bedtime story."

The more I listened to the story, the more alert I became.

Damn it, wasn’t this the intelligence report I had written?

The Emperor paused for a moment and said, "Oh, wrong one."

He slowly switched to another book: "Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and on the mountain, there was a temple..." <<less

Jing Li transmigrated to ancient times, becoming a rare koi fish with a unique koi buff that can quickly change the fortunes of those around him.... more>>

The little koi ended up in a remote mountain village, where he was picked up by the village’s most famous sickly person.

The sickly man, named Qin Zhao, came to the village three years ago with no memory of his past, his identity shrouded in mystery. So ill that he could barely move, he was ostracized by the villagers.

Looking at the empty mud house where Qin Zhao lived, Jing Li decided to help him.

The little koi wagged its tail at Qin Zhao: “I heard I can help people fulfill their wishes!”

Qin Zhao: “Anything?”

Little koi: “Yes, yes, yes!”

Qin Zhao smiled faintly: “I want a husband.”

From that day on, the sickly man in the village suddenly recovered and was incredibly lucky.

Whenever he ventured into the mountains, he found rare herbs; a casual act of saving someone turned out to be the son of a wealthy merchant from the city; even when digging in the ground, he unearthed a silver ingot…

He built a house, got married, and established a private school. Life got better and better. The villagers, driven by curiosity, started climbing the walls, trying to steal his luck secret.

They only saw the sickly man squatting by the pool, gently coaxing the bright red koi blowing bubbles at the bottom:

“Come out and eat, or I won’t let you have baby fish.”

“Shall we go see your favorite sea today?”

“I……I don’t think I can. I have to meet Sir Cassian today.”

Soon, this news spread in the circle: "I heard that Lu Zexuan, an S-class sentinel, took a fancy to a C-class little guide?" "That guide is only 18 years old!" "General Lu really has a unique taste."

Until one day, the Falcon Special Combat Team was surrounded by mu*derous alien creatures, Lu Zexuan was seriously injured and on the verge of mental collapse.

Before he lost consciousness, he saw the guide beside him stretching out countless spiritual tent**les towards the beasts.

Yu Ran, who was usually simple and innocent, his gaze at that moment was decisive and sharp, his strong spiritual power made all monsters instantly surrender to his feet.

He stepped over the corpse mountain and blood sea of the beasts, calmly walked to Lu Zexuan, and stretched out his hand towards the sentinel: "Do you need me to protect you, General Lu?

Lu Zexuan: "............"
