The talented woman and virtuous empress Gu Qingcheng has been reborn.

She refused to repeat the path of glory she had taken in her previous life.

What does it mean to be "well-read and educated, naturally exuding elegance"?

Screw that sophisticated, plain-looking woman with hidden depths.

In this life, she will be a superficial, rotten-hearted, yet beautiful woman!

————————

Gu Qingcheng: Am I beautiful? I traded my intelligence for beauty!

Gu Qingcheng: Am I beautiful? I traded my health for it!

Gu Qingcheng: Am I beautiful? It's all thanks to my good character!

There's quick transmigration, infrastructure building, cannon fodder's counterattack, and slapping scumbags in the face... What else? It's up to you, dear readers!

At fifteen, Mo Yingqi thought he would never see those sisters again in his life...

At the age of twenty, Mo Yingqi joined the Zhenfu Division and within a year rose from an ordinary Flying Fish Guard to a captain. In a daze, he became the consort of two legitimate princesses.

When he finally saw the two people from his memories, he felt that fate had played a cruel joke on him!

"Ying Qi, come to your sister!"

"What my sister has, I want too... and I want even more."

Just as Mo Yingqi began to believe that her life was complete, the two sisters finally revealed their true colors...

“Ying Qi, if you dare to leave us, we won’t hurt you, but… we will kill others.”

“You can’t leave, Yingqi, stay by your sisters’ side, for a lifetime… no, for all eternity.”

What could he do? He could only... lie there and accept his fate!

In the summer of 1619, a passenger ship carrying 905 crew and passengers ran aground at the southernmost tip of Vancouver Island. Four hundred-plus years of time difference — what changes will they bring to this era?

Wang Xiaowen, a baby with all his memories, was a nurse. His mother, his father's second wife, relentlessly brainwashed him daily—"You have a bad brother, a real showoff! He's the most attention-seeker in the neighborhood!" "When he was born, he even had a dream about a fairy appearing in his mind, making your father treat him like a baby!" "Not only did your father name him 'Yun' (likely a character for 'Xiangyun'), he even changed the name of his residence to Ruiyun Tower!" "Pah!" Wang Xiaowen, still nursing, understood. His mother was following the same playbook of a wicked stepmother and mean stepson. His unlucky brother's name was Wang Yun! Well, after all, she was his own mother, so of course she'd side with her relatives. *Not long after, Wang Xiaowen heard his father holding him and introducing his unlucky brother, who had just returned from studying abroad, "Shouren, this is your younger brother." Wang Xiaowen? Wait, isn't his brother's name Wang Yun?!</p>

Special Forces Soldier is reborn as the Ninth Prince of the Great Yan Dynasty.

At the beginning, he was wrongly accused of raping the Emperor's sister-in-law, and his brother was also framed to death.

It took him one month to turn the tide.

Black-hearted casino? Give me all the money!

The Emperor is partial? My cheap father was shocked.

Beautiful general, the first sword god, the undefeated gambler...

Have you heard? There are talents everywhere in the Ninth Prince's place.

My brother wants me to die?

Come on, come and see Gatling!

The heavens starting from "White Deer Plain",

Bai Gui was reborn in Bailu Village at the end of the Qing Dynasty. There are Gantian Town from "Zombie Taoist Master II", Zhou Ying from "That Year the Flowers Bloomed and the Moon Was Full", Bai Xiuzhu and Leng Qingqiu from "The Golden Family", and "Zombie Taoist Master II". Xiaodouzi from "Farewell My Concubine", martial arts from "Master", Chu Renmei from "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village"...

Taoism?

Martial Arts?

Bai Gui just wants to study first, learn the Four Books and Five Classics from Xu Xiucai of Bailu Village first, and then take the exam to become a scholar and gain fame (he will stay in Japan later).

This article is a slow read, starting from reading step by step.

In the year 1572 AD, there were still 72 years to go before the fall of the Ming Dynasty and the loss of its lands.

At this time:

Wokou pirates ravaged the southeast,

The Tartars threatened the northwestern borders,

Local warlords grew stronger through annexation,

The military and administration were exhausted,

And the common people suffered.

The Longqing Emperor had just passed away.

It was at this moment that Shi Yue transmigrated into the body of Zhu Yijun, the future Wanli Emperor, who would later become infamous for not attending court for thirty years.

The good news:

Zhu Yijun had not yet ascended the throne — he hadn’t had a chance to ruin state affairs.

The bad news:

Zhu Yijun had not yet ascended the throne — and the power struggle was already underway:

Feng Bao, head of the Directorate of Ceremonial, sought to be the spokesperson of imperial power.

Grand Secretary Gao Gong wanted to sideline the emperor and strengthen the Cabinet.

Vice Secretary Zhang Juzheng was determined to implement his new policies and take control of governance.

His only supposed ally, his own birth mother Lady Li, constantly punished him with kneeling and forced him to write self-reproach edicts.

A crumbling empire loomed ahead, and the heart of power was a battlefield of intersecting ambitions and blades.

With the fate of the nation at stake and the makings of a wise emperor, what path will he choose?

In her past life, the world said Su Ling had a blessed fate. She was a peerless beauty, born into a powerful family—her father was the Duke of Zhenguo and her older brother served as a deputy minister in the Court of Judicial Review.

At seventeen, she married the Prince of Jin. Two years later, she naturally rose to become Empress of the Great Zhou.

In terms of status and nobility, she was unmatched.

But in the first year of Yanxi, the Duke of Zhenguo deserted his post on the battlefield, and the Su family was accused of colluding with the enemy and betraying the country.

After giving birth to a son, the empress died in the inner palace.

When she opened her eyes again, she had become Qin Ling, the daughter of a fifth-rank official in the Imperial Astronomer’s Office.

Awake from a dream, though she no longer longed for that heartless man, she was compelled to reenter the palace—for the sake of the child she had once borne.

On the day of the selection ceremony, the emperor reclined on his dragon throne without a word, his brows lowered, full of impatience.

Until Qin Ling walked in, wearing the exact same face as the late Empress Su, and greeted him,

"May Your Majesty be blessed with peace and health."

At that moment in the grand hall, the emperor suddenly looked up. His deep, dark eyes lost focus in the moment their gazes met, and the teacup in his hand shattered on the ground.

He murmured, lost and haunted,

"A-Ling..."

Qin Ling: “Back in the palace again, I’ve found all those who wronged me have wrinkles now—including that damn emperor.”

Xiao Yu: “You acted with me, used me, and then... stopped loving me?”

She thought death was the end, that everything in the past had been buried forever.

But unexpectedly...

The young crown prince would sneak into her quarters, grab her pinky with his tiny hand, and ask,

“Are you my mother?”

PS: This is a non-typical reincarnation story. The timeline moves forward continuously.

The heroine marries the male lead twice.

The male lead’s 'white moonlight' (his one true love) is the heroine herself.

No body double trope.

Both leads have "golden finger" (cheat-like) abilities.

The heroine is the best actress and the most beautiful in the harem.

The synopsis was written in early 2018.

Reading Guide (Must Read):

1. Theoretically, the soul is SC (Single Clean), but since the heroine has had two bodies, let’s just assume it's not SC to avoid debate. Cleanliness-minded readers take note.

2. Focus is on the romantic plot. Fully fictional and historically inaccurate.

3. Six updates a week. No updates on Thursdays. Extra updates if possible, notice given for delays.

4. No filler, no dropped storylines. Happy ending, plenty of extras.

Li Mo transmigrated into the body of Li Jing’s grandson and began living a wildly absurd life in Chang’an.

Famous for cockfighting, dog racing, and squandering wealth, his notorious reputation spread far and wide—even Emperor Li Shimin could only shake his head and sigh.

When the Turks invaded the borders, he was instead seen skateboarding down Zhuque Avenue on a modern board, drawing the attention of the entire city.

That very night, when a fire broke out in the Eastern Palace, he astonishingly mixed a fire-extinguishing powder using chemical formulas.

Li Shimin, staring at the powder's residue, muttered: “This boy is only pretending to be a fool… What is he really after?”

Forced into court service, he grumbled about the boring politics while at the same time improving the curved-shaft plow and inventing the steel tempering method.

One after another, various women enter his life:

—The daughter of Chang’an’s richest man

—Princess Gaoyang

—A female general disguised as a man

—A young palace maid from the Ye Court named Wu Meiniang (Wu Zetian)

Before he could sort out these four romantic entanglements, he had already been pushed onto the battlefield to lead the campaign against Goguryeo...

When modern engineer Levi transmigrates into the body of the impoverished second son of a nobleman on the French border, with his elder brother dead and his father critically wounded, he finds himself with only three days to prevent his family's annihilation. A ruthless enemy is closing in on the crumbling castle; what will he do? Fortunately, fate intervenes. The [War Lord System] that comes with his transmigration grants him the ability to see through territory data and imbues his soldiers with unwavering loyalty. In the Burgundian War, a conflict that will reshape the European landscape, Levi will use his modern management skills to reshape the medieval army, building an ironclad force in an era when firearms are still in their infancy. From a border baron to the Black Duke of Paris, his iron hooves will ultimately shatter the shackles of feudalism!
