Not only that he had mastered all sorts of fascinating tricks of using poison, but he was also like a glutinous rice ball with sesame filling, looking soft, sickly and harmless to everyone, but under the meek surface there was a dark heart.

Despite that, Li Hengyuan doted on him, and couldn’t have loved him or pampered him more.

Until one day, the allegedly ailing beautiful Lord pressed Li Hengyuan against his bed.

Li Hengyuan stared at him with astonishment: "Honey, what are you doing?"

The gorgeous Lord ripped open Li Hengyuan’s clothes, and responded with actions.

After finishing their intimacy, Li Hengyuan felt like weeping but failed to shed a tear. He had just been deflowered by the flower he had nurtured!! <<less

Night of the wedding, “wife, be good, wipe the saliva.” She collected the handkerchief and wiped her lips. “Come, be good, blow!... more>>

Really taking me as a fool ah! Sadly he’s right, this big wedding night, facing a s*upid wife, wiping the mouth, not to even talk of urine.

Heavens ah, when will this bitter ‘b’ day end! <<less

I’m an imperial uncle; his imperial majesty’s uncle.... more>>

Once, someone with nothing better to do took a comprehensive survey of the current dynasty, and summed up the imperial court’s three great cancers.

Wang Qin leads in corruption; the treasury is never full.

Yun Tang favours a few, forming cabals; leading to corruption in our politics.

Prince Huai plays with power, and serves as the head of a hundred poisons — thus causing instability to the throne.

When they talk about the most venomous of vipers, the wicked one who plays with power, the biggest cancer of them all, they’re talking about me: this insignificant prince, Prince Huai, Chengjun.

I can only say that I feel rather hapless in the face of these theories.

In truth, I have been ever dutiful, ever devoted, devoid of intention to monopolise power, and possess even less of a heart to covet the throne. In the entire imperial court, I dare say there is no loyal subject more loyal than I.

But, most tragically, in all the realm, the matter of me being a loyal subject is something that not many would believe. <<less

I became a supporting character in a captivity-abduction classic novel set against the backdrop of a world war. Unlike the protagonist’s sister, who was treated coldly and abused at home, as “Diana Claire,” I was abducted in place of the protagonist in order to get out of this hell.... more>>

“Don’t leave me, princess. All right? You can’t die.”

The Duke that abducted me was a beautiful madman, an educated madman. He would visit me from time to time and stare at me as if I were an important piece of art he had carefully stored away. His eyes were ascetic yet strangely decadent, sensual yet full of flavor. I didn’t know why this man, who seemed insane, would do this to me.

What was inside the pretty wrapping paper of gentlemanly manners, elegant and graceful appearance, was a kind of madness. The man’s madness gave off a calm, eerie, and bizarre atmosphere like a work of art with a twisted meaning.

“I want to kill everyone except you, my Diana.”

She tried to control and tame this man, possessed by a cruel demon.

Originally, the word she always heard in life was “madman”. <<less

His life changes one day when he meets a girl named Audrey Burne, as the encounter brings him into contact with a new Gundam and its connections to an item called "Laplace's Box." <<less

But as she grappled with her newfound identity, she couldn't shake the lingering doubt: could she ever truly love a world that had forsaken her? <<less

“Why should I only marry one man?” the female emperor declared. ... more>>
