After finishing the book "One Hand Covering the Sky" in one night, Xue Yao couldn't help but cheer for Prince Ning's comeback, finding even his vengeful and petty traits incredibly cool!

However, at the moment Xue Yao transmigrated into the book, he found himself conspiring with the Third Prince, smashing the wooden toy horse of little Prince Ning.

Upon entering the delivery room, he discovered his “wife” is actually a man!!!

Was there anything more terrifying than this?!

Li Jin had just woken up when he saw a man run out from the room.

“Li Jin, your family’s husband is having difficulty giving birth. He can’t hold on anymore!”

In ancient times, dystocia was known as “one corpse, two lives”.

Without even thinking about it, Li Jin rushed into the delivery room. —He was an obstetrician.

Having ascended from a beast to a mountain lord, Horang’s lowly origins meant he was disregarded by the other lords. None would associate with him or even say a word back when he tried to start up a conversation. Watching over his mountain in solitude—with a squirrel named Ttorang as his sole companion—one day a letter carrying words of marriage arrives, addressed to Horang.

Horang initially considers this a cruel joke, but when a fox demon appears and claims to be the sender, he seems to be quite sincere. Even chasing away the fox is no use, as he hovers near Horang, repeatedly asking for marriage. Horang’s heart is gradually swayed by the fox’s requests, but, actually, there is somebody he is waiting for. Someone whose name or face he can’t remember, but whom he had held dear even before becoming a mountain lord. Knowing this person might return someday, Horang cannot accept the fox’s proposal.

In the midst of all this, Horang’s mountain finds itself under threat from mysterious evil spirits and shamans that have begun to frequent it… <<less

Lu Gu got a marriage on behalf of his brother and married the fierce hunter in Qingxi Village. No matter how wronged he was, under the coercion of beatings, he was still put on the sedan chair. ... more>>

How could the Shen family gave up on marrying such a ridiculous thing. After a tumultuous fight, Lu Gu was brought back to the Shen family. He was ready to tremble and seek life.

Who knew that the days after marriage were far less difficult than he imagined, and he could even fill his stomach without having to be beaten. Shen Xuanqing also bought him chickens and ducklings, and built a fence in the backyard to raise chickens and ducks for him. Lu Gu squatted in the backyard and touched the chickens and ducks. After the panic, he was full of joy. Shen Xuanqing said that these were all his.

For the first time, Shen Xuanqing, who was about to go out was stopped by Lu Gu timidly, holding the corner of his clothes. He saw his little fulang showing a short and shy smile, handing over a small bag of fine flour cakes, saying that it was the food for him who was going into the mountains.

Shen Xuanqing was nibbling on the cakes expressionlessly in the mountains, but in his heart he was thinking that the little fulang was good and diligent. He looked good when he smiled, but he was too thin. <<less

Luo Zhen was picked up by a half-beastman and taken to the tribe as soon as he passed through.... more>>

He thought he was going to be forced to become the companion of the half-beastman, who knew that the tribe moved away before the bond was formed.

Luo Zhen, who stayed with the orcs, looked at the tribe razed to the ground by the flood and the group of old, weak, sick and disabled in the tribe, he swallowed silently.

Lu Zhan, the delicate and fragile half-orc stood in front of people while densely-dressed in animal skins, said innocently, “We have no tribe anymore.”

Luo Zhen: “It’s okay, we rebuild the tribe without them.”

Lu Zhan: “Food is not enough.”

Luo Zhen: “We’ll grow our own.”

Lu Zhan: “I don’t have a partner either.”

Luo Zhen: “I’ll be it.”

Lu Zhan successfully curled the corners of his lips, “That’s settled then.”

Luo Zhen: “…” Wait, I- no- I don’t.

In order to feed this group of old, weak, sick, and disabled, Luo Zhen learned to hunt, build houses, find food in the wild, plant, domesticate, pave roads, and build bridges in the wild and strange world. He must lead this group of people to become rich and well-off.

Luo Zhen discovered that the primitive society he thought seemed a little different from what he had imagined. <<less

Yin Mingyu 007 worked until she was bald, and still could not afford to buy a one hundred square foot apartment in the first tier cities.... more>>

After her sudden death, she transmigrated through to the Chengye Dynasty and was a shu daughter of the Yin family in Jiangnan. Once liberated, she just wanted to do nothing but eat and wait to die as a salted fish.

House fight? It has nothing to do with her. Isn’t it nice to lie down?

Compete for favor? It has nothing to do with her. Isn’t it nice to lie down?

Looking for a good future? It has nothing to do with her. Isn’t it nice to lie down?

However, her older di sister who married the Xie family in Jiangnan passed away. Her di mother, because of her young grandson, chose Yin Mingyu after circling around in the courtyard.

Being a new wife was difficult, being a stepmother was even harder.

Yin Mingyu was never afraid of the di mother and spoke directly, “I don’t want to.”

The di mother also directly expressed her opinion: Not willing doesn’t work.

Yin Mingyu: “……then whatever.”

Anyway, she always lies flat. She will marry over in the future. Don’t blame her for just looking after her own happiness and interests. <<less

At the end of last year, the evaluation forms for personnel changes in various ministries in the capital came out, and the public chef of Dali Temple topped the list with a record of changing 12 cooks in half a year.

Shen Yu was sincerely in love. For that person’s sake, Shen Yu ignored his illness-ridden body and plotted to overthrow the tyrant. It was only after Shen Yu died that he learned the truth. He was a character in a book, and the man he loved only viewed him as a stand-in for the protagonist. To pave the way for that couple’s happiness, Shen Yu lost everything.... more>>

After he was reborn, the sickly Shen Yu was so done with that.

As for that man, whoever wanted him could have him.

Shen Yu took his half-brother’s place and became the male concubine of the tyrant. The tyrant didn’t like men anyway, and Shen Yu didn’t have much time left. Since he was going to die, he might as well go to the palace to sit around and wait for death.

After entering the harem of the tyrant everyone feared, Shen Yu ate and drank without a care in the world.

The tyrant, with long black hair on his shoulders and crimson eyes, didn’t hide his hostility. He grabbed Shen Yu by the neck. “You’re not afraid to die?”

Shen “Just get it over with” Yu felt a little excited. “Are you going to kill me now?”

Tyrant: “? ? ? ? ?”

Shen Yu entered the palace expecting to die, but he waited and waited and waited. In the end, the officials petitioned to make him the empress, and the tyrant cured his deadly illness.

Shen Yu: “…”

Before Shen He could even find a boyfriend in his own time, he found himself transported into a novel, taking the place of a doomed character destined for tragic betrayal.... more>>

This character was raised by the male protagonist himself, entrusted and nurtured as his closest powerful minister, only to ultimately betray and meet a brutal death at the male protagonist’s hands.

Shen He: Trembling in fear.

Assuming the role of the powerful minister was far from what Shen He desired. He’d rather cling to the male lead’s coattails, hoping that with his support, he could wield some influence and perhaps even find an attractive boyfriend someday.

And so began Shen He’s diligent journey to ingratiating himself.

When he learned to speak, his first word was “Crown Prince”.

When he learned to walk, the first person he ran to was the Crown Prince.

When he learned to write, the first name he wrote was again, “Crown Prince”.

After years of dedication, Shen He became a trusted figure by the Crown Prince’s side. All in all, he enjoyed his role: the perks were grand.

By the time he turned twenty, he hoped to retire with a treasure trove and lead a life of luxury.

He had it all planned out: he would relocate to Jiangnan, a place known for its scenic beauty, and perhaps find a handsome man to call his own.

As days turned into nights, Shen He finally witnessed the male protagonist overcome all obstacles, ascending to unparalleled power. Shen He rejoiced: Retirement, here I come! That very night, he packed his bags, exchanged his wealth, and contacted a close friend to accompany him to Jiangnan.

But instead of his friend, the male protagonist arrived. The male lead, holding Shen He’s chin with a dangerous tone, said, “I heard you’re planning to settle down in Jiangnan and are even thinking of finding a handsome young master to wed?”

Shen He replied nervously, “Is it wrong to want a man?”

The male lead smiled, “Of course not. Choose me, let your ‘Prince Brother’ make you his queen.”

#All I wanted was to lay low, but he wants me to be his queen

#Do I look like someone fit to be the Empress to you? <<less

Jiang Juan had transmigrated into a book, becoming a cannon fodder who had pretended to be sick for many years, and was forcibly married off to Prince Li, Xue Fangli.... more>>

However, no one knew that Xue Fangli wouldn’t live past three chapters. Jiang Juan only needed to endure him until he died, and then he would harvest a happy salted fish life.

On the day of their marriage,

Xue Fangli: “I don’t have much time left. I’ve wronged you.”

Jiang Juan: “You haven’t wronged me, Your Highness. It’s an honor for me to be associated with someone as distinguished as you.”

Xue Fangli: “How do you feel about leaving? Would you like that?”

Jiang Juan: “I am willing to accompany Your Highness forever”

After a moment of silence, Xue Fangli coughed lightly, blood seeping from his fingers. “In that case, I’ll come back in a few days to ask you again.”

Jiang Juan’s face paled, but inwardly, he was ecstatic.

—— You will ask me again in a few days? That’s impossible. You’ll die within three chapters.

Xue Fangli remained silent, quietly scoffing to himself.

— You are willing to accompany me forever? With your frailty, how long can you hold on?

*

Later, three chapters had passed, and although Xue Fangchi frequently coughed up blood, he remained alive and well.

Several months later, while Jiang Juan’s heart condition often flared up, he remained unharmed.

Xue Fangli: ?

Jiang Juan: ?

Later on, as the plot took unexpected turns, Xue Fangli ascended to the throne, and both of them changed their minds.

—He couldn’t die.

On this day, a renowned physician from Jiangnan arrived in the capital. Jiang Juan immediately left the palace to find him. He kicked open the door of his room and said, “Physician, my husband often coughs up blood and is weak. I’m not ready to be a widow yet. Can you help…?”

Inside the room, Xue Fangli grabbed the renowned physician by the neck with one hand and lifted him up, his face darkened. “My Empress suffers from heart disease, and his condition often worsens. He’s frail and unable to care for himself. Will you treat him, or…?”

The two people’s eyes met.

“?”

So Itsuki made up his mind. To become strong - to never die again.

Upon waking up, she found herself transformed into the Pure Consort of Emperor Qianlong’s harem. Not only was she 32 years old, but she also had an eight-year-old eldest son, a son barely two years old, and, oh, a new-born daughter who hadn’t even reached a month old yet. It’s utterly heart-breaking.

To make matters worse, historically, this Pure Consort only lived to be 47 years old! And her children suffered even more! Her second son passed away at the age of 47, her eldest son at 26, and her youngest daughter at 23…

Save me! Save me!”

“Emperor Qianlong lived to be 87 years old, and there were several concubines in his harem who managed to live past 70, with some even outliving Qianlong by an additional two years.

Upon calming down and carefully considering it, although the harem may be wicked, as long as one earnestly perseveres and takes good care of their health, perhaps one could still live to a ripe old age of 99… as a seasoned old salted fish.”

Xiao Chuchu transmigrated with a palace scheming system and foreknowledge about the future into the early-passing cannon fodder princess in the book.

Her Father Emperor would be poisoned to death, her Mother Consort forced to die in burial with Father Emperor, her elder brother and entire maternal family – loyal officials – would meet cruel fates!

The Xiao Dynasty would soon be destroyed under the new Emperor’s hand.

[Mother Consort ah, you did not fight or snatch, yet still incurred the jealousy of the Imperial Noble Consort, who issued an order for you to be buried alive with Father Emperor!]

[Elder brother ah, accomplished in both civil and military affairs, yet still viewed with suspicion by the new Emperor after Father Emperor’s death, plotted against and killed at the border pass.]

[Maternal grandfather ah, clean and honest your whole life yet still falsely charged by the new Emperor with six major crimes, your whole family exiled and killed!]

[Father Emperor ah, you were poison-swapped and killed while concocting elixirs and seeking the Dao by the Imperial Consort. After your death, the new Emperor abolished old laws, killed hundreds of loyal officials, imprisoned top generals, borders lost, people struggling to survive! Our ancestors’ legacy destroyed in less than two years!]

As Xiao Chuchu suckled milk, her Father Emperor, Mother Consort, elder brother, and maternal grandfather were all dumbstruck.

[Oh no, it’s over.]

Xiao Chuchu lamented that she was but a baby, able to do nothing.

But very quickly she noticed something amiss –

Her Mother Consort, rising higher and higher in rank, Noble Lady, Concubine, Consort, Noble Consort…much favored among the six palaces.

Her elder brother, originally unrelated to the throne, was established as Crown Prince.

Her maternal grandfather’s family, quite valued and relied upon…

Her Emperor Father still hadn’t died!

On the contrary, the treacherous Empress, Consorts, and new Emperor met their ends prematurely…?

How could things turn out this way?

I blankly lay on the carpet of the imperial study room, and the eunuch beside me was submissively introducing, “Your Majesty, this is the remarkable beauty Prince Jin is giving as a tribute.”

From above came a familiar yet cold voice, “Prince Jin has spared no effort. Pity, that what We hate the most in this life is other people looking like… that person.” <<less
