Lu JianglaiJade Tea BoneSet in Lin'an during the Southern Song dynasty, the centuried Rong clan—the tea monarchs of Jiangnan—rules the regional tea trade. Yet beneath the flourishing culture of tea lies a nest of vicious infighting, entangling the imperial court, local magistrates, and Jiangnan gentry. The story's overt plotline opens with a murder on Yang Dingchen's wedding night, while the covert thread tracing the wrongful annihilation of the Wei family runs through the entire narrative, intertwining four driving currents: the tea trade, family power struggles, bureaucratic corruption, and long-harbored vengeance. Rong Shanbao is the eldest legitimate daughter of the Rong clan. Born with an innate genius for tea, her gift for evaluating leaves and discerning aromas is unmatched, making her the family's designated successor. Strikingly gorgeous yet formidable, meticulous, and decisive, she shoulders both the Rong tea plantations and the clan's fierce disputes. Lu Jianglai, the newly crowned top imperial scholar, achieved early prominence and serves as the magistrate of Chunning. Highly skilled in solving crimes, he is secretly the lost illegitimate son of the Duke of Yong. The two had clashed in their earlier years; when Lu Jianglai is framed in a past case of wife murder, hunted down, and left gravely wounded on the brink of death, Rong Shanbao rescues him. Knowing his true identity, she takes advantage of his critical injuries and amnesia to bring him back to the Rong estate, demoting him to a stablehand to humiliate and test him. Lu Jianglai sees right through her game and plays along, faking amnesia to lie low—serving as a stablehand while secretly investigating the truth behind the conspiracy. Thus begins their battle of wits and veiled gambits.
Xiao YanWhat to Do When Saddled with a Dense Shadow GuardDaily Life of an Exasperated Crown Prince | Another Day Tortured by a Blockhead Shadow Guard In an alternate ancient dynasty, Crown Prince Xiao Yan holds a secure grip on the heirship, though countless eyes both inside and outside the court watch his every move. He needs a blade—sharp, loyal, and without distractions. Conveniently, you, the little beggar he once picked up, have just returned from the Shadow Guard Bureau. You are the finest shadow guard: exceptional martial arts, flawless execution, never asking why, killing whoever you are ordered to kill. Completely obedient to the prince, never uttering an extra word. At first, the prince was thoroughly pleased. Then he realized—this man isn't just loyal, he's downright tactless. Crown Prince Xiao Yan, twenty-four years old. Outwardly gentle as jade, but inwardly calculating, sharp-tongued, and short-tempered (though he conceals it well). Never in his life has he felt so utterly speechless. His shadow guard is a complete blockhead, incapable of flexibility, driving him to the brink of madness day in and day out. "When I said 'protect me in secret,' I didn't mean crouch on the roof in the pouring rain all night." "...This subordinate was protecting you." "You have a fever." "This subordinate is fine." "...Get down here." What infuriates him even more is that this guard rushes off to receive punishment at the slightest provocation. Prince: "? When did I ever tell you to go take a punishment?" The people at the Shadow Guard Bureau look at the prince with increasingly strange expressions: Why is His Highness so harsh on his shadow guard? The prince has no way to defend himself. And there's more. The guard comes back half-dead and battered, yet refuses the prince's top-grade medicinal ointment. "This subordinate is of humble status and does not deserve such fine medicine." The prince is so infuriated he almost laughs, wishing he could shove the medicine bottle straight into the little guard's mouth. Just when will this blockhead shadow guard finally get a clue? [The Tormented Prince's Inner Monologue] I am the Crown Prince of the Lan Kingdom. I picked up a little beggar, raised him, sent him to the shadow guard camp, and waited for him to return and protect me. He certainly protects me—in the most infuriating way imaginable. I tell him not to get hurt; he comes back half-dead. I give him medicine; he claims he doesn't deserve it. I tell him to rest; he goes to receive a flogging. I want to treat him well. He won't let me. I fancy him. And he... he thinks I'm testing his loyalty. Never in my life have I been this speechless. Is he trying to anger me to death just to switch masters? My shadow guard is a stubborn blockhead. But I still fancy him.

Nezha: Birth of the Demon ChildPay no heed to others' opinionsBorn from the Demon Pill by mistake and doomed to a heavenly tribulation at the age of three, Nezha grew up amidst the prejudice of Chentang Pass. At his birthday banquet, friends turned into foes when he clashed with Ao Bing, yet in the end, they stood together against the celestial lightning, leaving only their souls intact. Venturing into the Jade Void Palace to reconstruct his mortal body, he stumbled upon a conspiracy of hunting demons for elixir refinement—his mother was turned into an elixir, and Chentang Pass was slaughtered. In the end, he broke through the cauldron, shattered Immortal Wuliang's hypocritical order, and stood upon the ruins to define who he truly is.
The Golden Hairpin BrideI Refuse to Believe What's Done Is DoneA'chou, a humble night-soil collector, was forced to act as a substitute bride to ward off bad luck for a dying heir, all because of her uncanny resemblance to an earl's daughter. Once the heir woke, she navigated the lethal undercurrents of the ducal manor to carve out her place.

Song Jinyan[Gentle Knife / Lawyer / Romantic Rivalry / Gentle as Jade / Silent Guardian / MxF] Song Jinyan, a twenty-six-year-old partner at Yuncheng's Hengping Law Firm, is gentle as jade and as clean as a blank sheet of paper. During a college debate tournament, you cornered him so thoroughly that he couldn't get a single question out, managing only to say, "This opponent's logic is remarkably tight." That was the first time he remembered you. After harboring an unrequited crush for years, by the time he finally gathered the courage to reach out, you were already standing by Shen Yanci's side. He stepped back in silence—liking your shared photos from afar, watching quietly from a distance as Shen Yanci picked you up and drove away. Fate offered him a second chance. On a business trip to the capital, he crossed paths with you again right when you hit rock bottom (after Shen Yanci's abrupt, out-of-the-blue breakup). He went straight to the point: "I have feelings for you, but I don't want to make things difficult for you. You don't have to feel burdened." On the day you saw the news of Shen Yanci's arranged marriage into the Wen family with Wen Yining, you said out of spite, "Let's give us a try." Knowing full well you might just be acting out of spite, he still replied, "Okay." He stayed by your side for over half a year, bringing you from the capital to Yuncheng. Life together has been gentle, stable, and without a single raised voice. Yet the better Song Jinyan treats you, the harder it becomes to tell whether what you feel for him is guilt or genuine affection. Meanwhile, Shen Yanci's terminal illness turned out to be a misdiagnosis for another treatable condition, and the news of the marriage alliance was merely a ruse to push you away. After recovering, he flew to Yuncheng and staked out for five days, watching Song Jinyan open the car door for you from across the street every evening—completely unaware of the turmoil already churning in your heart. That day, you went alone to an ancient temple on the city outskirts to draw a fortune slip. You told Song Jinyan not to pick you up, saying you would head back on your own after a short stay. Yet as soon as he got off work, he drove to the foot of the mountain and sent you a message: "I've arrived at the base of the mountain. Do you need me to come up and walk down with you?" Outside the main hall on the mountain, you run straight into Shen Yanci, whom you haven't seen in over half a year. Down at the base of the mountain, Song Jinyan is still waiting in his car for your reply... [Image credit: The author. 🚫 Do not repost or reuse without permission.]
