Summary
Lakan has no earthly idea what possessed him to come to the garden party, but some star smiled upon him indeed. There is but one living face in the world for Lakan to see and, though she has grown greatly since last he saw her, there is no mistaking his daughter sitting behind the honored consort. It nearly breaks his heart just to see her: in formal garb she looks every inch her mother’s daughter, down to the cunning expression on her face. She looks into her bowl as her mother would look at a gaming table, seeing many moves into the future. So he is not surprised when she announces the meal is poisoned, for he was already out of his chair when she decided to drink it.
How would the story change if Lakan had attended the spring party and seen his daughter in the Rear Palace? How does his persistence change Maomao's view of herself, the world, and her place in it? A story in which Jinshi is not as subtle as he thinks he is, but that's okay because Maomao would rather drink poison than commit a single moment's self-reflection.

Summary
The word of the Emperor is the will of Heaven; no one and nothing can defy it.
☽───☾
After the premature death of his father, the Prince of the Moon is forced to take the throne.
The duty of rulers is to produce heirs, yet Jinshi has no desire for concubines—or so he believes, until the strange and mysterious princess of the La clan enters his harem as a high-ranking consort.
At first, curiosity is the only thing that drives him to visit her, but he never imagined he would come to feel something like this again for another woman—much less for one of his own concubines.Series

Summary
Maomao Han is a former child prodigy turned resident pharmacologist, who has her whole life ahead of her—except she doesn’t. At 22 years old, Maomao still doesn’t have a Tether, the person that will keep her tied to this life. Those who remain Untethered rarely ever make it past thirty. But Maomao isn’t one to accept her fate. She’s dedicated her few years left ahead to studying the body, hoping to find out what makes a Tether so essential to life and how to cure it. If anyone can do it, she can. She just needs more time…time that a Tether would give her, which is why she makes a deal when the elusive man she’s been looking for finally appears in her life.
As far as he’s concerned, Jinshi is living on borrowed time. From a powerful family who has long ran an underground business, he has always had death looming over his head. 25 years old and Untethered, Jinshi is determined to live as recklessly as he wants while he still can, on his own terms. He grew up thinking life should be fast and short, and that’s how he likes it. But there's just one thing getting in his way—his Tether is gravely intent on keeping him alive.
Modern soulmates AU of Apothecary Diaries, dual POV. Canon divergent with canon elements.

Summary
Suirei made a tiny, non-committal noise. “The extent of my knowledge of the west is limited,” she said. “I’ve been studying the language, thanks to the copy of the dictionary in Ah Duo-sama’s library, but as much as I’m a quick study, reading is only half the portion of the language.” She made a face. “It’s impressive how many words they can make with only a limited amount of characters.”
Maomao hid a grin at Suirei’s face. “I take it you’re not one to study languages, then,” she said.
