    Summary

    When the order comes, Shen Qiao is angry, furious that his brothers kept the negotiations from him. But what can he do? Denying the emperor is asking for death. Shen Qiao has no choice but to enter the Imperial Harem.

    Then, just as Shen Qiao is settling into his new life as a forgotten, low-ranking concubine, the emperor flips his nameplate. Surely, a night with a madman can’t be so bad.

    Unfortunately, the emperor seems to have other plans.

    Summary

    Sunday meets Gallagher in his early days, before he becomes the head of the Oak Family and discovers that Gallagher is the Watchmaker’s Hound. An act of kindness leads to an entanglement that persists through Sunday’s rise to power and past his fall from grace.

    “I’ve come to wholeheartedly confess, esteemed advocate,” the lazy voice drawls. “Please pardon my sins.”
    “I have implored THEIR presence to be with us. As long as you are sincere—” Sunday sighs. Why is he even saying this?
    “That’s not very professional of you, esteemed advocate,” Gallagher says, the smirk in his voice audible.
    […]
    “Don’t be so quick to toss me out. I’ve got a real confession this time.”
    Sunday eyes the partition suspiciously, hearing the nonchalant click of candy against teeth. “You do?”
    “Mhmm. You see, I had a dream about those gloves of yours.”

    Summary

    He Yu scoffed, “Xie Qingcheng. Isn’t this a bit much? My son will have hundreds of palace maids, all young and full of life, as pretty as flowers, serving him, dressing him, feeding him. Waiting on him day and night. What need does he have for you?”

    The older man knelt, his inky hair a stark contrast against his jade face. His inner robes hugged his figure in such a way, it left He Yu’s throat dry and clouded his mind, like a fine vintage wine. The emperor smiled coquettishly, his eyes roving over his ex general’s body, “But, I am nothing if not generous. If General Xie enters my harem, and agrees to serve me as my concubine, this matter may be reconsidered.”

    The youth’s words were laced with such ridicule, such venom, it was obvious to any with ears that the proposal was hardly a serious one. The youth had clearly meant to humiliate the ex general into silence. Xie Qingcheng was a man of pride and decorum after all.

    But, much to his surprise, Xie Qingcheng, the man of pride and decorum, nodded in assent, “I’ll do it.”
