Summary
When his army is defeated at the border, Wei Ying - a former General of Dazhi - is taken as a prize by the victor nation Beicui. He's resigned to a life of hard labor and an early death when a chance encounter alters his fate - he ends up in the manor of Prince Qing as a concubine instead.
Wanting nothing to do with the fights of an inner courtyard, he takes pains to avoid the attention of the prince's legal wife and the other concubines. But all his efforts go to waste as the petty struggles for favor that consume the inner courtyard overflow, leaving death in their wake.
Throwing himself headfirst into treacherous water, Wei Ying struggles against the current to create a future where he belongs and thrives, survive a present where danger hides in beauty, and tear down the powerful to get justice for the dead.

Summary
The man that used to be Airplane Shooting Toward The Sky wakes in the middle of a meeting with a bunch of Xianxia looking types. A quick glance at his hands shows that he’s expertly holding a writing brush. In front of him is traditional ink in an inkstone.
His hands are bigger than they used to be, and turning them over, Airplane finds strange calluses. Neatly trimmed nails (Airplane is a nail biter) make him shake his head.
“Does Shang Shidi have something to add?” Someone says from across the table.
Airplane looks around, waiting for Shang Shidi to answer. After a moment, it occurs to him that Shang shidi… might possibly be…him. Airplane is starting to get a baaad feeling, okay?

Summary
“Kim Dokja, sign a contract with me to become my personal guide,” commanded Yoo Joonghyuk.
The room fell into silence. Kim Dokja blinked slowly as he saw the way that Yoo Joonghyuk continued to stand at his bedside stubbornly.
Oh no, thought Kim Dokja.

Summary
“You came back,” Shen Qingqiu said.
“Yes.”
“Why?”
A creature lunged from behind a broken column. Liu Qingge turned and killed it in a single, brutal strike, then faced Shen Qingqiu again as though nothing had interrupted them.
“Because I would never leave you,” he replied sincerely.
Something broke in Shen Qingqiu’s expression.
“They assumed I was dead,” Shen Qingqiu added quietly. “I heard them shouting it.”
“Well, you certainly proved them wrong.”
Shen Qingqiu laughed, sharp and disbelieving, then coughed, blood at the corner of his mouth. “You really shouldn’t have come back here.”
“I know, but I wanted to.”
What begins as political convenience becomes survival, scandal, and a love neither of them planned for.

Summary
Erik knows very well who he is and what he is for. If Bast thought placing him here would humble or punish him, They do not know him as well as They think. Erik may wear the body of a slaver, but his mind and his choices are his, as they always have been.
He lived by the sword and died by it; he sees no reason to change the bedrock of his personal ethics the second time around.
