A poor mountain girl, Lu Fufu, transmigrates into a book. Her mission? To transform the story’s villainous tyrant into a wise and benevolent ruler.

Mu Linchuan is a true tyrant: narrow-minded, gloomy, petty, and ruthless.

After rebel forces seize the capital, he loses the use of his legs. It’s Lu Fufu—living in the Cold Palace—who carries him out from a pile of corpses.

The once-glorious young emperor falls from grace overnight. From a noble ruler, he becomes nothing more than a half-man with the stature of a child, someone everyone mocks and humiliates.

But when he sees the plain little girl stumbling around trying to get him medical help, the boy falls silent.

He is pessimistic, cynical, and weary of life—but for Lu Fufu, he’s willing to change. Bit by bit, he claws his way back to the capital.

To win for her. To protect her safety.

In later years, the Emperor of Dayong, Emperor Li of Yong, Mu Linchuan, would become a legend. As a youth, he was a tyrant beyond redemption.

After the fall of the capital and the loss of his legs, he was overthrown. But it took him ten whole years to fight his way back.

When he returned, he ruled with wisdom and compassion: quelling northern tribes, opening sea routes, cutting taxes, building canals. He became a celebrated monarch remembered for generations.

This era of his later reign came to be known in history as the "Yuanshuo Era of Governance."

And the reason for all this change, people say, was an unremarkable girl by his side.

That girl would later become Empress Yichun, once a forgotten consort cast into the Cold Palace.

But on the very day she was to be crowned empress, the beloved Yichun Empress tragically passed away. From then on, the deeply devoted young couple were separated by life and death.

The entire court watched as the heartbroken young emperor canceled morning court for days, absent-minded and grieving. He gave Empress Yichun the highest honors in burial: tiger-emblazoned banners, phoenix carriages, imperial parasols, and a place in the ancestral temples—an extravagant tribute of mourning.

As for Lu Fufu, she had a little secret she never told Mu Linchuan:

She had always planned to fake her death and disappear.

One-Line Summary: I’m the little tyrant’s short-lived white moonlight.

Theme: Redemption and personal growth through effort and change.

Who knocked over the glass cup and poured it over and whose sleepless night was soaked? Who made the bow and piano messing around and disturbed Wulanyue on the river? Some are galloping in the huge mountains, some are crisscrossing between the north and south of the Traledi Mountains, and some are wandering on the edge of life and death to torture themselves about the mystery of time and space. This story is put into paper and pen, but it is just a matter of giving time to the sky, hoping that the years will be different.

Su Yi was in a car accident on her way to work, suffering from amnesia. She forgot two things: 1. She and Xu Ruoxing were in a sham marriage. 2. She had loved Xu Ruoxing for years. When Su Yi woke up, her friend revealed two things: 1. She and Xu Ruoxing were deeply in love. 2. Xu Ruoxing was madly in love with her. Upon hearing the news of Su Yi's accident, Xu Ruoxing rushed to the hospital. Seeing the woman lying in bed, who had never greeted her before, Xu Ruoxing reached out and coquettishly said, "Honey, give me a hug." Follow-up story [Friend]: Everyone knows that Zhou Tianzui has a friend who lives next door to her. This friend is a law-abiding figure, a model of self-discipline in the news industry, and has never done anything out of the ordinary. Unbeknownst to everyone, Zhou Tianzui also has a "friend" who opens her door every night, lifts her covers, and climbs into her bed. Once, Zhou Tianzui was arranged to go on a blind date. That night, he told Zhao Qinghe about it, and his reaction was even more intense than usual. Zhou Tianzui whispered in my ear, "Since you like me so much and want to go on a blind date, I might as well get married." "I'll find you after we get married." Notes: 1. This is just bullshit, with a happy ending. 2. This story was written by a cat. 3. You can stay or leave as you please, no need to tell me.

Originally a small clerk, I stumbled upon an immortal transcending a tribulation, and was dragged back to the Warring States Period. To survive, I resorted to modern technology, experiencing major historical events. It's impossible to revisit the original history, but to adhere to the records in the history books, I deliberately concealed many things. A chance encounter with a secret manual gradually transformed me into a cultivator. Over the course of millennia, I encountered beauties of all kinds, but without a breakthrough in my cultivation, I vanished into the dust of history...

After the spiritual energy was revived, Li Jie witnessed his relatives and friends being killed by ferocious beasts. Determined to take revenge, he signed up for the army and wanted to become a god of war, but the style was a bit wrong.

"Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the food system."

"Congratulations to the host for making a plate of cold potato shreds, rewarding Qi and blood +1."

"Congratulations to the host for making the mutant iron claw chicken into a delicious roast chicken, Qi and blood +10."

"Congratulations to the host for making the E-level ferocious beast steel pig into a roast suckling pig, Qi and blood +100."

"Congratulations to the host for making the S-level ferocious beast swallowing sky python into a delicious snake, Qi and blood +100000."

......

When others are still having a headache about how to kill the ferocious beast, the ferocious beast will become a delicious food and appear on Li Jie's table the next day.

In the process of constantly hunting and making ferocious beasts into food, Li Jie gradually embarked on...

After waking up, Sancho was bound by a fast-travel system that claimed to come from the highest plane.

How does it feel to be hit in the face by a quick-travel system as soon as you open your eyes?

Sancho: Thank you for the invitation. I just woke up in bed. It's quite sudden. I don't care whether this is science or metaphysics. I'm just curious. Is it possible to have a system without going through the three major steps of sudden death, rebirth, and time travel?

Sancho's life-long dream is to find a job with two weekends off, five insurances and one housing fund, more money and less work, close to home, and then work until he dies.

However, things did not go as planned. When he woke up, he did not die suddenly, was not reborn, and did not travel through time. Instead, he was bound by a quick-travel system.

Sancho: Who can withstand this? I can’t figure it out. I can’t figure it out.

When that weird old almanac comes to you, don’t throw it away.

In this already broken and twisted world, I have only one piece of advice——

Please keep in mind the pros and cons and go out to read the almanac.

Good luck, Old Calendarist.

Wandering souls, worms scatter. Invisible things are all around me, and whispers are coming from nowhere in my ears. An abomination awaits in the abyss. It was dead silent and windless, not even the corners of my clothes or the ends of my hair could be blown away. Mu Su stared into the abyss, and the abyss was also staring at him. It was not until Mu Su took off his pants that Shen Yuan had to look away in embarrassment.
