Palace Fighting: Naive Concubines' Ascent to Power

Whistling Autumn Wind
In the first episode, Little Palace Maid Lian Hua, holding tea leaves, thought to curry favor with Zhaoyi. The Emperor intercepted her halfway, and before she could react, he hijacked her tea leaves, leaving her bewildered. In the second episode, she wanted to curry favor with the Noble Consort. During the Noble Consort's birthday feast, she hadn't even presented the meticulously prepared tea leaves before the Emperor seized them, leaving her aggrieved. In the third episode, she had just sneaked out with the Palace Maids to pick bamboo shoots, planning to go back and cook something delicious when the Emperor burst out of nowhere wanting to freeload a meal. If it wasn't tasty, he would punish her, she managed to barely pass muster by exerting all her energy. Before she could feel relieved, the Emperor told her he was also staying to sleep! This time, he was thoroughly taking advantage of her, enjoying free food and lodging without the slightest intention of rewarding her. At night, the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. All the silver she had saved up in earlier years had been used to sustain the Emperor. Now that the money was gone, she feared being punished for not being able to support him in the future. The more she thought, the sadder she got, her tears plopping down, which woke the Emperor sleeping beside her. In a flurry, the Emperor consoled her, "There, there, don't cry, don't cry. I haven't even had time to reward you, how could I punish you!" After much consoling, and finally with his promise to provide for her sustenance, she turned her tears into laughter. The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief. This Little Concubine would need to be favored properly from now on—he dared not make her cry again. →→【This story has concluded, thank you for reading】→→ New book recommendation: "Consort of the Roll-Royce is Here, Run!"—It's a good read!

Surviving in the Demon Academy as My Novel's Final Antagonist

I just finished writing the last chapter of my novel, [Powering Through the Prestigious Academy With No Talent], where the final villain was defeated by the protagonist. This novel that I designed meticulously from head to toe...was now done. The protagonist shakily pointed his cold blade at the villain's neck, "Any last words?" The villain wasn't fazed, despite nearing his death, and smiled widely, as if mocking the protagonist, "No, nothing." "Just kill me." "...Very well.", and with one slash, the villain was killed. In the end, such an outcome was inevitable, no matter how powerful the villain became. And that was the ultimate satisfaction for any avid reader. But the next moment, I suffered an excruciating headache, and collapsed before I was able to upload the last chapter. Unexpectedly, when I woke up and opened my eyes, I wasn't in a hospital, nor my room, but a cemetery. I felt around my clothes that were getting drenched in the rain, and saw my dashingly red hair in a puddle nearby. My face was now completely different from before; my mouth naturally tugged upwards, and my eyes became slits as if they were sewn shut. Unmistakably, I recognized this appearance, which I had envisioned countless times. No, wait, why do I look like that guy? Where is my computer? My phone? Eventually, I realized--I'd reincarnated as the final villain in my novel! The ending scene of the villain dying by the protagonist's hands flashed through my eyes, and I remembered the words I said right after I wrote it. It's inevitable. "...I'm screwed."
