In an empire built on power, duty, and blood, love is a luxury few can afford-especially the Emperor.
For three years, Emperor Kaelun has ruled with an iron hand, feared by nobles and enemies alike. But behind palace walls, there is one soul who holds the key to his heart: Empress Lian, his first love, his only softness. She is everything the world is not-gentle, patient, and fiercely loyal. Unbeknownst to him, she carries a secret that could change the fate of the dynasty: she is eight weeks pregnant with triplets.
But peace in the palace is short-lived. Pressured by the court and tradition, Kaelun must take his first concubine-Princess Linxi of Shanghai, a woman famed for her beauty and chosen to strengthen the empire's alliances. Though the Empress understands her role in the dynasty, and Kaelun treats the new consort with respect, the quiet ache of betrayal and uncertainty begins to ripple through the palace.

Reborn as the Emperor's Most Favored Prince
What happens when a modern girl dies... only to wake up as a baby prince in her favorite fantasy novel? Not just any prince-the Seventh Prince, Kaelion, the Empress's most beloved son and the most handsome child in the empire. In the original story, he was nothing but a side character, adored for his beauty but destined to die young, a mere footnote in the bloody struggle for the throne. But this time, Kaelion has something no one else does: 👉 A modern brain full of "strange inventions." 👉 A sharp tongue and comedic inner monologues. 👉 A determination to live long, eat well, and avoid all death flags. Unfortunately, surviving palace life isn't easy. His brothers range from overprotective to murderous, his sisters cling to him like he's their personal hero, and the nobles whisper behind his back. Worse, five extraordinary young women-noble ladies, a proud oiran, and a merchant's daughter-are all fated to fall in love with him. Between assassination attempts, sweets stolen with his fourth brother, awkward marriage proposals, and court politics, Kaelion must learn to play the role of "useless, spoiled prince" while secretly outsmarting everyone around him. But fate has already marked him as the Emperor's treasure. And treasures are always fought over. Comedy, romance, harem, and palace intrigue collide in this reincarnation tale of a girl who became the most favored prince! NOTE: I created this for fun. Open for feedback :) Thanks!
