She, breathtaking and indifferently gentle, soft and adorably clueless. She was a Divine Doctor who could bring the dying back to life, and also a poison expert who killed without trace! She possessed a pair of clairvoyant eyes, and also a body filled with mysterious vital energy! People said: Even Yama Raja had to give way to those An Yiqing wished to save! He, cold and aloof, stunningly handsome like a deity. He was the most outstanding descendant of the Ancient Martial Arts Families and also the youngest general of Xuanjin Country! He was an emperor who emerged from darkness and blood, holding great power and deciding over life and death! When the gently indifferent her and the cold and proud him met, what kind of sparks would they ignite? Affection chapter: An Yiqing asked, "Hm, I heard you like me?" Gu Yelin stiffened, "Yes!" An Yiqing's eyes fell, her voice flat, "But I can't be with you." "Reason." Gu Yelin's voice was dark and heavy; his heart clenched in pain—he had been poisoned, and only this little white rabbit in front of him was the cure! "Master said I have an incurable disease." "If you live, I live; if you die, I die!" Gu Yelin's voice was low and resolute. An Yiqing's downcast eyes gradually reddened, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly, "Every time I see you, my heart races, I struggle to breathe, and my cheeks turn red. Master said that's the incurable disease, and only you can heal me." Gu Yelin's dark eyes surged with waves of joy and excitement, like a surging undercurrent. ...Only she could cure his poison, and only he was the medicine for her. Underdog chapter: At the banquet Qin Jia: "Who do you think you are? Just an orphan with no parents, what right do you have to cling to Young Master Gu's side?" An Yiqing's eyes swept over coldly, a mocking smile on her lips, "Relying on you who would be nothing without the Qin Family, relying on me who could pinch you to death with one hand!” “You slut!"— Qin Jia, furious, raised her hand to slap An Yiqing. "Sick of living!" Suddenly, a pair of iron-like hands gripped Qin Jia's arm tightly; he had only left for a moment. Who was this blind person daring to bully his treasure? Qin Jia roared resentfully, "Young Master Gu, why are you doing this to me? She's just a wild child with no parents!" "Who dares to say that the An Family's only jewel is a wild child?!" A furious rebuke erupted like a thunderclap, shaking the entire banquet. Baby chapter: The plump Little Bun wriggled his little bottom, his glutinous voice carrying a complaint, "Daddy, why won't you let me sleep with Mommy?" Gu Yelin's mouth twitched, "You are a man, you cannot cling to my wife." "Hmph! Jealous men are so annoying!" Little Bun mumbled, "The Uncle Duan who came to see Mommy yesterday is nice, so is the Uncle Bai who I met last week, and there's Uncle Li who gave me a big red envelope during the New Year and that pretty auntie, they are all nicer to me than Daddy!" Third Young Master Gu's temples throbbed. Why, even though his adorable little white rabbit was married, did those wolves with greed in their eyes still not give up? Men were one thing, but even women were trying to get involved! Third Young Master Gu felt aggrieved; the road to being a henpecked husband is long and arduous~ ************************************ The author says: This story slightly incorporates special abilities with fantasy elements.

“Unlucky” would be the nice way to describe Lucas’ luck. He wasn’t just down bad. He was practically cursed. As someone who never asked to exist, he’s had to experience medical torture, imprisonment, and eventually death. And that was just his first life. Then, just as he thought of escaping his fate, he transmigrates into the body of the Empire’s most useless Flower Vase. Great, now he should have status, wealth, and beauty, right? Wrong. Because his new body, Young Lord Luca Kyros, was a vegetable. And what’s worse was that no one else seemed to know the truth. To everyone else, he was just your typical rebellious heir. He wouldn’t have minded that. He was used to being called a harlot or similar names for being a defective Guide. But the problem was he woke up right smack in the middle of the Royal Military Academy’s Assessment test. And his double body, the one who should be attending school, perished in an ambush. So now, he’s forced to resolve his existential crisis while attending a school he never even enrolled in. He’ll have to conquer his flimsy body, his brooding roommate, and his picky-eater “dungeon”—all that on top of surviving impending doom. Someone definitely needs a miracle.

After living as a famous Korean vlogger-slash-mukbanger, Neoma died a (shameful) death and regressed to her tragic first life--- the life where she has to live as a hidden princess with a tyrannical father and a yandere twin brother. She died at the hands of her psycho brother in her first life. But luckily, she charmed her "big brother" this time. Her father remains a sc*mbag, though. But a blessing in disguise happened when her twin brother got "sick." Because of that, she has to pretend as the "Crown Prince," forcing her father to treat her well. She thought she was finally on the road to becoming a lady of leisure. But, despite her laziness, she still ends up completing royal duties that put her closer to the throne than her sick twin brother. The next thing she knew, they already prophesied her to be the first empress of their very patriarchal empire. Now Neoma finds herself in the middle of the succession war she never wanted to be involved in! *** [EXCERPT 1] “Neoma de Moonasterio, the first princess of Moonasterion Empire. From now on, you’ll live as Prince Nero’s proxy.” [The hell is this psycho saying?] Neoma, despite her confusion, still smiled at her father--- the emperor. “Father, what do you mean by that?” “From now on, assassins sent by my enemies would target Nero,” the emperor explained. “Until he’s strong enough to protect himself, you’ll pose as your twin brother.” Her smile froze, but she still acted innocent. “But Father. If I take my brother’s position, then wouldn’t the assassins mistake me for him and…” She stopped talking when she realized that was exactly what the emperor wanted her to do. [This sc*mbag wants me to be bait?!] “You’re no longer a princess, Neoma de Moonasterio. From now on, you’ll live as Prince Nero de Moonasterio,” Emperor Nikolai said coldly while looking down at her with glowing red eyes. “Try to survive until your twin brother comes back to take his rightful place, understood?” Neoma was too shocked to react. [Are you f*cking kidding me, you sc*mbag?!] *** [ORIGINAL BOOK COVER. Artwork by sola_cola.] *** [EXCERPT 2] “I’m so sick of your tyrannical a*s,” Neoma yelled at her father aka the emperor. “I won’t forgive you for hurting Lewis and Tteokbokki!” “What will you do about it then?” Nikolai asked with a smirk. “Kill me?” “Yes! I’ll f*cking kill you, sc*mbag!” “Language,” he warned her, upset that his five-year-old daughter curses like a sailor. “Using vulgar words is unbecoming of the future Crown Prince.” “I’m a princess!” Upon yelling those words, the royal princess’s eye color changed from ash-gray to red. [This is getting serious.] “Stop it, Nero,” Nikolai told her sternly. “If you keep that up, the royal knights will come and–” “I’m not Nero!” Neoma screeched angrily. Then she jumped in the air with her left fist, ready to punch him. “In the name of the moon, I’ll punish you!” [What…?] And Princess Neoma, pretending as the Crown Prince for her sick twin brother, punched Emperor Nikolai, her father, in the face.

Tianlong Yun had it all! He was a Crown Prince Dragon. The youngest to reach Godhood. Thousands of beauties in his harem. A perfect life to live. But all of this changed one night. Everything he had was lost in one night. His brother and his new lifelong mate betrayed him. They crippled him and his cultivation and made the world believe he cultivated dark arts. Chased by the whole Immortal World, there was only one person who still believed in him, and stayed by his side. His fateful death companion. But, when he thought that everything was gone, and that he would be in the line to eat Aunt Mengs soup, something incredible happened. He woke up in a new world, a new planet, a new civilization.

Jiang Ning limped out of her quarters one day and entered the Jiang family's second courtyard, just as the Emperor was selecting a concubine for Prince Yu.  Noble ladies from high-ranking families put in their best efforts to participate in the selection, but the flower fell on Jiang Ning, who was merely there to watch the spectacle.  Jiang Ning was confused. She dared not let Prince Yu be a scapegoat, so she tried every possible way to tell everyone she was pregnant. However, no one believed her.  When she vomited after eating, they laughed at her for feigning illness. When she felt tired, they laughed at her for pretending to be delicate. When her belly grew larger, they laughed at her for overeating.  When Jiang Ning wanted a doctor's confirmation, all eighteen doctors she consulted had the same opinion: "You're just eating too much!" The fifth prince, Prince Yu, was a dashing and handsome young man. He exuded an air of sophistication and regal beauty. This was how the common people of Chang'an City typically described him.  But the real Prince Yu was cold and ruthless, using women without any emotional attachment.  He knew that the second madam of the Jiang family was the Emperor's secret love, and he also knew that the daughter recently brought back by the Jiang family looked exactly like the second madam in her youth.  So, even though the girl had a limp, he still tossed the embroidered flower in his hand into her lap. After their marriage, he knew she was just a pawn. But for the sake of the throne, he had to pretend to cherish her even though he detested her, until...

Après avoir vécu comme une célèbre vlogueuse-mukbangeuse coréenne, Neoma est morte d'une façon (honteuse) et a régressé à sa première vie tragique--- la vie où elle doit vivre comme une princesse cachée avec un père tyrannique et un frère jumeau yandere. Elle est morte des mains de son frère psychopathe dans sa première vie. Mais heureusement, cette fois-ci, elle a charmé son "grand frère". Son père reste tout de même une ordure. Mais un bonheur dans le malheur est survenu lorsque son frère jumeau est tombé "malade". À cause de cela, elle doit se faire passer pour le "Prince Héritier", forçant son père à la traiter convenablement. Elle pensait qu'elle était enfin en route pour devenir une dame de loisir. Mais, malgré sa paresse, elle finit quand même par accomplir des devoirs royaux qui la rapprochent du trône plus que son frère jumeau malade. Sans s'en rendre compte, on l'a déjà prophétisée pour devenir la première impératrice de leur empire très patriarcal. Maintenant, Neoma se retrouve au milieu d'une guerre de succession à laquelle elle n'a jamais voulu participer ! *** [EXTRAIT 1] "Neoma de Moonasterio, première princesse de l'Empire de Moonasterion. À partir de maintenant, tu vivras comme le substitut du Prince Nero." [Qu'est-ce que ce psychopathe raconte ?] Neoma, malgré sa confusion, sourit tout de même à son père--- l'empereur. "Père, que voulez-vous dire par là ?" "À partir de maintenant, des assassins envoyés par mes ennemis cibleraient Nero," expliqua l'empereur. "Jusqu'à ce qu'il soit assez fort pour se protéger, tu te feras passer pour ton frère jumeau." Son sourire se figea, mais elle continua à jouer l'innocente. "Mais Père. Si je prends la place de mon frère, les assassins ne risquent-ils pas de me prendre pour lui et..." Elle s'arrêta de parler quand elle réalisa que c'était exactement ce que l'empereur voulait. [Cette ordure veut se servir de moi comme appât ?!] "Tu n'es plus une princesse, Neoma de Moonasterio. À partir de maintenant, tu vivras comme le Prince Nero de Moonasterio," dit froidement l'Empereur Nikolai en la regardant de haut avec des yeux rouges brillants. "Essaie de survivre jusqu'à ce que ton frère jumeau revienne pour prendre sa place légitime, compris ?" Neoma était trop choquée pour réagir. [Tu te fiches de moi, espèce d'ordure ?!] *** [COUVERTURE ORIGINALE DU LIVRE. Illustration par sola_cola.] *** [EXTRAIT 2] "J'en ai assez de ton attitude tyrannique," cria Neoma à son père alias l'empereur. "Je ne te pardonnerai pas d'avoir blessé Lewis et Tteokbokki !" "Que vas-tu faire alors ?" demanda Nikolai avec un sourire narquois. "Me tuer ?" "Oui ! Je vais te tuer, ordure !" "Langage," l'avertit-il, contrarié que sa fille de cinq ans jure comme un charretier. "Utiliser des mots vulgaires ne convient pas au futur Prince Héritier." "Je suis une princesse !" En hurlant ces mots, la couleur des yeux de la princesse royale passa du gris cendré au rouge. [Ça devient sérieux.] "Arrête ça, Nero," lui dit sévèrement Nikolai. "Si tu continues, les chevaliers royaux viendront et–" "Je ne suis pas Nero !" hurla Neoma avec colère. Puis elle sauta en l'air avec son poing gauche, prête à le frapper. "Au nom de la Lune, je vais te punir !" [Quoi... ?] Et la Princesse Neoma, se faisant passer pour le Prince Héritier à la place de son frère jumeau malade, frappa l'Empereur Nikolai, son père, au visage.

Zhuo Qingyan, a member of the current generation of special forces, nicknamed Solitary Falcon, had been blown away from her mission and landed on a cliff. When he opened his eyes again, he was like the concubine of the Shang Shu Manor of the Darkhan Empire — the Fourth Miss, a fool. An imperial edict bestowed the marriage to the current emperor's uncle, the Prince of the Ghost Face. With a shake of her body, she became the imperial aunt of the current dynasty. A useless king and a foolish concubine were born a pair. Becoming the king, the sage's assistant patted her chest and said, "If you open the borders, I'll help you expand the land; if you recruit troops, I'll help you train; if you don't have a horse, I'll help you steal one; if you don't have one …" "My beloved concubine, This King has no children …" "Let me help you …" Then, wait a little longer … His Royal Highness was in his prime, so it was not bad for him to be strong. There would definitely be someone to succeed him! However, what she did not know was that she carried a secret. The treasure map that was imprinted on her back was being fought over by various forces. She had also become a 'prey'! Prince, the wangfei has brought people to pick out the Grand Guardian of the Lin Country … [Previous Chapter] [Table of Contents] [Next Chapter] "There are too many people who want to be the overseer, switch!" — — "My prince, the wangfei brought people to beat up the great general of the Northern Jin and hung him naked on a tree." — Well done! He wanted to see how the cold faced bronze masked prince doted on his wife. He could fight for her in this world, but loving her was his treasure.

Jiang Ning est sortie un jour en boitant de ses quartiers et est entrée dans la deuxième cour de la famille Jiang, au moment même où l'Empereur sélectionnait une concubine pour le Prince Yu. Les nobles dames des familles de haut rang ont fait de leur mieux pour participer à la sélection, mais la fleur est tombée sur Jiang Ning, qui était simplement là pour regarder le spectacle. Jiang Ning était confuse. Elle n'osait pas laisser le Prince Yu être un bouc émissaire, alors elle a essayé tous les moyens possibles pour dire à tout le monde qu'elle était enceinte. Cependant, personne ne la croyait. Quand elle vomissait après avoir mangé, ils riaient d'elle en l'accusant de feindre la maladie. Quand elle se sentait fatiguée, ils riaient d'elle en l'accusant de prétendre être délicate. Quand son ventre a grossi, ils riaient d'elle en l'accusant de trop manger. Lorsque Jiang Ning a voulu une confirmation médicale, les dix-huit médecins qu'elle a consultés avaient la même opinion : "Vous mangez simplement trop !" Le cinquième prince, Prince Yu, était un jeune homme séduisant et beau. Il dégageait un air de sophistication et de beauté royale. C'est ainsi que le peuple ordinaire de la Ville de Chang'an le décrivait généralement. Mais le véritable Prince Yu était froid et impitoyable, utilisant les femmes sans aucun attachement émotionnel. Il savait que la deuxième dame de la famille Jiang était l'amour secret de l'Empereur, et il savait également que la fille récemment ramenée par la famille Jiang ressemblait exactement à la deuxième dame dans sa jeunesse. Alors, même si la fille boitait, il a quand même jeté la fleur brodée qu'il tenait à la main sur ses genoux. Après leur mariage, il savait qu'elle n'était qu'un pion. Mais pour le bien du trône, il devait prétendre la chérir même s'il la détestait, jusqu'à...

Ashton declared and his already cold demeanor turned even colder and blood thirsty. ***** After giving him a strong head butt, Amber pointed at him angrily, "Get your head straight and remember this, the reason why I am also here is to support you.
