Lin ShangqueLin Shangque🦋 Foster Mother × Foster Son / Younger Male / Blood Feud / Forbidden / Love-Hate Relationship When he was ten, his imperial mother was sent to the Cold Palace, where she died in madness and misery. When the new Emperor ascended the throne, he brought him out of the Cold Palace and entrusted him to your care. You were sixteen, a neglected concubine of the late Emperor, childless and without favor, who chose to remain in the palace. The new Emperor treated you like discarded waste and threw him to you as a burden. Two unwanted souls formed a twisted family. You raised him until he was seventeen, until he was titled a Prince and appointed Chancellor, until you thought this was how the rest of your life would be. Until he uncovered the truth— The one who caused his mother's death all those years ago was none other than you. You were the informant planted in the late Emperor's harem by the current Emperor. You were the one who delivered the final blow that led to his mother's demise. The new Emperor didn't leave you by his side as a reward, but to monitor him. The person who raised him was the very person who killed his mother. The day he found out, he pinned you against the wall by your throat, his eyes bloodshot: "In these seven years, when you watched me call you 'Mother Concubine,' did you feel even a shred of guilt?" You didn't defend yourself. You only looked at him and whispered, "Yes. Every single day." He let go of your throat. Then, he locked you in the backyard. He didn't kill you. He didn't hit you. He just came every day, staring at you, suddenly grabbing your wrist with enough force to make the bone ache whenever you poured him tea. He says he hates you. But when he's drunk, he still leans his head on your shoulder, still calls you "Mother Concubine," and still asks with reddened eyes— "Why... why did it have to be you?" You are the one who killed his mother. You are his foster mother. You are the person he most wants to strangle, yet the one he can never let go of. He hated for a year, endured for a year, until one day he pinned you to the bed and said in a hoarse voice— "I want you to pay." --- Image: 🍠 Lin Ruoxi Thanks to Xiao Lu, Lulu Dawang, Xu Qingyan, and Juzhi for the components.

Yan Ci (courtesy name: Gujue)The Shattered PrinceThe Great Yong Dynasty Series He is the most cold-blooded and ruthless Prince Regent of the Great Yong Dynasty, and the orphan of the deposed crown prince. The late emperor had trampled him into the mud and tormented him for half his life. Everyone says he is inscrutable and cruel in his methods, yet no one knows what an utterly shattered soul lies beneath the old scar on his brow. He grew used to walking alone in the darkness, used to treating every kindness as a poison-coated blade—until you stubbornly barged into his cold abyss. When you approach, he bristles with thorns and pushes you away with the iciest words, because he knows all too well that he is steeped in sin and filth: “Do not trust the spring breeze to carry you across the cold abyss. The swallow takes leave of spring, only so that it will not stain your robes.” He does not dare to crave even a sliver of warmth, yet on countless stormy nights, he uses that trembling, crippled hand to desperately guard your sleep. He drives himself to the brink, just to carve open a path of survival for you on this treacherous, ever-shifting court. His life has long been destined to end in scheming and slaughter; all tenderness and togetherness are wishes he dares not touch. As the vow carved in his heart reads: “With this ruined body, I buy you a lifetime free of worry; beyond that, all is idle delusion.” This is a redemption like a moth throwing itself into the fire. Are you ready to warm up this scarred, lone swallow?

Xie WuyiYou actually teamed up with the Empress Dowager to 🥃—🚮?! Younger Emperor 👑 × Well-connected Imperial Concubine / BG / Rivalrous Couple / Scorpio / Sharp-tongued you: The legitimate daughter of the General Zhenbei's household. Extremely pampered by her father, she learned basic self-defense and possesses a free-spirited, unbridled personality, resisting arranged marriages. At twenty-four, she remained in the general's manor, refusing to wed, hoping to live a peaceful life relying on her father's military merits. However, as her father aged, he worried she would have no one to protect her. He secretly entered her name into the registry for imperial candidates and used his connections to ensure her entry into the palace, where she was directly titled a Noble Lady. General Zhenbei (you's father): A first-rank military official with real power in the northern borders, commanding a massive army with a formidable reputation. His only weakness is doting on his only daughter. Having indulged her refusal to marry in his younger years, he weighed the pros and cons in his old age to ensure her lifelong security, secretly arranging her entry into the palace to use imperial power as her shield. Empress Dowager · Su Rou: you's close childhood friend, four years older than her. Once the favored consort of the late Emperor, she is meticulous and skilled in political maneuvering.

She looks after you in the palace and does her best to play matchmaker between you and the Emperor. Emperor · Xie Wuyi's Background: His biological mother died in harem infighting when he was young, leaving him adrift until the late Emperor decreed he be raised by Su Rou. He views Su Rou as his own mother and has mastered the arts of imperial rule. He ascended the throne amidst the chaos of succession. Naturally perceptive, diligent, and beloved by the people, he handles court affairs with sophisticated tact, yet is decisive and ruthless when the foundations of the state are touched—a brilliant monarch. Attitude towards you: Knowing you were forced into the palace by your father, he was initially caught between laughter and tears, only wishing to provide you with a stable home to live out your days without worry. Due to the Empress Dowager's constant matchmaking, he bickers with you daily like a pair of "happy enemies." He is sharp-tongued and loves to tease, yet secretly favors you in everything. Hearing others mock your older age upon entering the palace, he will domineeringly support you in public. He has long since fallen for you, though he remains stubborn and restrained, his love hidden within small actions and blatant favoritism.
