概要

*Yuri* Princess X Slave with a hidden identity 'Sui, don't raise your head, and don't let yourself fall for the glamour of the Imperial Harem. Keep your head down and be as invisible as you can.' Those words were Sui's shackles ever since she could remember. This was Sui's mother's last advice before she perished. Living by these words, Sui always showed herself off as a simple servant of the Imperial Harem. From attending to the Concubines to serving the guests, she did all the tasks she was asked to. However, Sui could never curb her burning desire to learn more, and she ended up getting entangled with the one and only Imperial Princess, who had secrets of her own. ______ This is Yuri so enjoy it. The rating will change.

Chapter 11: A regular day of work

'It's quite out there. Has the Imperial Harem ever been this quiet during the day? I should enjoy this rare peace until it lasts.'

The cold and quiet morning was rare in the ever-busy Imperial Harem.

The morning was usually busy for the servants, with everyone running around to prepare for the day.

Dull black eyes looked up from an equally dull face painted with powder and other resources.

Only a fool would wake up this early and lose an extra hour of precious sleep to paint their face. But one such idiot was Sui.

'I should get this done quickly. I cannot let my roommate discover what I am doing.'

Sui finished with her face and quickly closed her cabinet shut and locked it at the first sign of wakefulness from her roommate.

Thankfully, Sui's roommate only stirred and did not wake up.

Sui had almost an hour left before she needed to report for duty, and she was not going to work early. 

'Looks like I will have enough time to look around my field today. I should prune the weeds so that my plants can grow.'

With that decided, Sui headed toward the back garden she had claimed as her own.

She spent an hour on her far, cleaning it up, among other things, before it was time to report for duty.

The life of a servant was hard, but it was fulfilling. 

But most importantly, it helped Sui live an everyday life and not stand out, just as Sui's mother had wanted for her.

'An ordinary life is the best life. I should reinforce the rules in my mind - do not get close to the Imperial Concubines, but don't ignore them. Be mindful of my manners and do nothing to stand out.'

Simply put, Sui needed to be an ordinary lady and live like one.

...

Sui pushed the kitchen door open and was not surprised to see the cook already there.

The old lady in charge of the kitchen was a perfectionist and liked to start early.

"Sui, are you here? Rika, you can tell Sui what to do and ask her for help. Finish the preparation work soon, and we can get to cooking."

Rika looked unhappy at being ordered around and rolled her eyes as the head chef ordered her around.

'Let's ignore Rika and her actions. The less I pretend to see, the better for me.' 

"Rika, are you doing your work properly? I cannot hear your hands working."

The head maid spoke, causing Rika to flinch before she went back to work.

Sui knew what to do in this situation so she did not feel awkward in the kitchen.

Instead, she took the small batch of vegetables lying on the side and decided to clean them up.

Rika's eyes continued to glare daggers into her, but Sui was unbothered by her behavior.

The head cook watched them for some time, but she finally relaxed once breakfast was in the preparatory stages and no accident occurred.

"You are free to head out now, Sui. I will handle things from here. Where are you posted today?"

Sui had to think about her work for the day.

Sui did not have one, unlike regularly employed servants with a set schedule. So, she was sent wherever the Imperial Palace was short on hands.

"I think I am posted in the Li Hua Palace. Concubine Cherubini is in poor health, and they need more hands. People expect it to be good news."

There was always some kind of gossip in the royal palace, and someone was always feeling under the weather with a harem as big as 100 beauties.

Gossip about being pregnant was also common. 

So, no one wanted to conclude anything too soon.

"Oh my! This is great news. But the timing is a little…"

The head cook trailed off while speaking, and Sui knew why.

There were rumors that the emperor wanted to welcome a new top concubine sometime next month. 

"It looks like there will be a power struggle next month. Do not get caught up in it; you can even lose your life. Remember, the only way to survive in the royal palace is to-"

"-Either keep your head down or become a royal's favorite. But realistically, keeping our heads down is the better option, right? The emperor does not have a type, and the princess…"

The head cook slammed her knife on the table to shut the gossiping people.

"This is enough. Other servants are starting to come in now. Good luck in the Li Hua palace, and stay safe."

The head cook was a good person who cared for Sui when she was younger. At this point, she is like Sui's mother.

"Understood. I will take care of myself. Then, I should get going now."

Sui opened the door before the kitchen servants could open it.

They all looked spooked and fell as soon as Sui opened the door.

These people had been leaning against the door and spying inside the kitchen.

The head cook was one of the oldest servants with the most knowledge about the inner court.

"W-We were not trying to listen in. I-I just felt a little faint, so I was trying to lean against the door and relieve my fatigue. Isn't that right?"

The other servant asked her fellow workers, who all looked reluctant to agree with her.

But in the end, they were all similar, so they decided to band together.

"This is right! You do not need to tell anyone about what happened here."

'This feels like these workers are interrogating me. Let's keep my head down and get out of here.'

"You are right! Nothing happened here. I shall head out because I have something very important to get done."

The trio looked conflicted, but they finally noticed the headmaid standing behind Sui and decided to keep their mouths shut.

The less they speak, the better it would be for them now.

"Oh, I assume your 'condition' is also why you arrived late here? You all better have an excuse ready for me."

Sui quickly ran away before her curiosity got better, and she got into trouble.

The Prince of Military Academy Is Actually A Girl!

After dying from a strange terminal illness, Ling Lan was reborn into a world 10000 years into the future. Although she dearly wished she could just live a peaceful and uneventful life in her new healthy body, fate had other plans ... Forced to disguise herself as a boy just so she could inherit her deceased father's premium military benefits, Ling Lan's journey to adulthood was full of challenges. After much difficulty, she finally turned sixteen when she could drop the charade. But before she could grasp her newfound freedom to get married and start her own family, a twist of fate results in her being thrown into the Federation's top military boys' school. With these twists of fate, Ling Lan had little choice but to walk further and further down a path of no return, one of cold and aloof dominance ... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ryuxenji the translator here. :3 Here are some other things you should know: 1) This story is NOT primarily a romance. QI's system right now categorizes all novels taken from the female novel Chinese site (起点女生网) as 'romance' without fail, regardless of whether they truly are romance. So, if you are here just for the romance, you might want to find a different novel. There will be some romance eventually, but most of this novel is Sci-Fi/Xianxia with a lot of world-building and character development. 2) I use British spelling. So, please ensure spelling errors are really errors before reporting them. 3) No matter what the release rate up top says, the guaranteed release rate right now is 1 chp/day (a.k.a. 7 chps/week). All else is extra at my discretion. (I'll try my best, but RL responsibilities come first.)

Reborn As Cursed Alpha's Mate

What happens when a goddess falls in love with a shifter? Asara; the goddess of love, was punished by her father, the god of thunder. Her crime being falling in love with a mortal shifter Alpha. To pay for her sins she was reborn as Cassandra LeBlanc; a mortal Princess in the magical Kingdom of Speldaria. Her family and kingdom, except her middle sister, shunned her for she was born without any magical abilities and she had no recollections of her true identity. Her betrothed, the powerful mage commander of the Speldaria, was unbothered by her. He wished for someone strong. Cassandra’s life was toppled when she was gifted a warrior slave by the mighty Alpha of Dusartine. She was asked to take part in the Yearly Arena Event by collaborating with the warrior. Cassandra who hated ‘The Arena’ with her very breath. A place where blood flowed like wine and life was cheaper than the very air they breathed didn't understand her purpose in it. On top of that, the mysterious warrior affected her in unimaginable ways. His hypnotic gaze unsettled her. His rare essence overwhelmed her. His muscular bronzed body consumed her with sinful thoughts. Even the dreams of her past life plagued her. When ‘The Arena' began the hidden agendas and underlying truths came to light and Cassandra was played a hand of fate. She was left with no choice but to give in and choose a path. The question would be. How will Cassandra grapple once she learns of the curse placed on her? Will she be able to obtain her magical abilities and stand up to her father? Who will help her along the journey? ~Excerpt~ Then she felt him, all of him. All his ruggedness. The strength of his arm. The softness of his lips. The grip of his hand. The warmth of his breath. Every muscle in her body went taut at the implications of sleeping in a man’s arms. She had never slept in a male’s embrace before. Her whole skin tingled like tiny sparks dancing on the very parts that connected with him. The crevices of her brain had these memories which weren't hers. This touch somehow didn't seem foreign to her. She felt safe in his soothing embrace and didn't wish to push him away and yet she knew this was far from appropriate. Cassandra tried to wriggle out of his hold, his arms seemed to be built from iron for they wouldn't budge. The light garment she had worn had lifted from her milky thigh baring it as his bronzed muscular one was draped on it. And now she could sense something poking her back. Her eyes suddenly expanded from the realisation and Cassandra fully panicked. “Let go!” She voiced out, heavily. Siroos slowly lifted his leg and slackened his hold on her waist so she could shuffle away. He had awakened when she had stiffened for the first time but wished to behold what she would try. With eyes blown wide she stole a glance towards the man who had her wrapped in his embrace like a precious treasure, his treasure. His molten gold eyes had flickered open and there was this softness and want with which he stared at her. Those soft brown curls cascaded over his eyes as he forgot to blink, watching the timeless beauty that she was. Her one-of-a-kind fragrance was a torture to his senses. How he wished to grab her dainty ankle, pull her from it and have her sprawled underneath him. To kiss the very skin that oozed such scent which was driving him insane. Instead, he bent his arm and placed it under his cheek using it like a pillow to watch her with desire-filled eyes. The awkward lull between them prolonged as Cassandra cleared her throat. “Did you have to climb on me to sleep?” “It wasn't intentional but was certainly enticing and definitely won't be the last time.” His deeply hypnotic voice was even more alluring this early in the morning as it resonated all around her. The book cover is mine.
