Summary
Maomao é a Princesa do temido Clã Kan - filha de FengXian, uma ex-cortesã sagaz, e Lakan, o lendário general estrategista do País de Li. Criada entre venenos, códigos silenciosos e olhares afiados, ela aprendeu desde cedo que poder não se mendiga, se impõe. Embora tenha recusado inúmeros pedidos de noivado, não por arrogância, mas por consciência do próprio valor, Maomao jamais imaginou que o império dobraria os joelhos diante dela.
Quando Príncipe da Lua pede sua mão em noivado como parte de um acordo político, Maomao se vê no centro de uma aliança perigosa, entre a Casa Imperial e o clã mais temido do reino, mas o que ninguém parece entender é que Maomao não é uma peça nesse tabuleiro.
Ela é quem escolhe as regras do jogo.

Summary
"The dead are not truly dead as long as they are remembered."
— African proverbIn the hushed shadows of forbidden palaces, a child sees what no one else can perceive.
She — an ancient breath carried from the future.
He — a promise that fate failed to erase.
Amid poisons, secrets, and withered flowers, an invisible bond begins to weave — fragile, forbidden, unforgettable.
And sometimes, the dead still have things to say.Warning!
There are no major spoilers about specific events from the light novel, but there are spoilers regarding Jinshi’s true parentage! You’ve been warned.
Also — it makes me deeply sad that Jinshi refuses to accept who he truly is. Maomao keeps calling him by that false name, and he goes along with it.
So in this fanfiction, he will be Zuigetsu, or Yue.This is a two-part story (this one will come when I have more time to write). The title "A Life to Search" is inspired by the epilogues and soundtracks of Clair-Obscur: Expedition 33, one of the best games ever!
The characters, of course, belong to Natsu Hyuuga.
Enjoy reading — that’s what matters most!— Moonflower

Summary
In the sterile logic of the 21st century, there is no room for ghosts. A lesson learned through years of therapy and medication. The life he remembers - An imperial court, a forbidden love, a promise shattered by death - is not a memory. This grief, not a wound to be healed, but a symptom to be managed. The life he remembers is given a clinical name - his memories are the illness; the prescription is to forget.
For more than a decade, he tried to believe them.
But when a viral video captures the face of a bottle girl in a Shanghai night club, the lie comes undone. It is her - The same cynical eyes, the same untamable spirit - The ghost had made flesh.

Summary
It was easy to pin his wrists behind him; he was weak, almost frail. Perhaps there had once been strength in his limbs, but age had withered it away, much like his appearance. Now he was but a faded beauty, a wilted rose. How many other rose buds had he nipped before they could bloom, how many had he forcefully deflowered? Had she been the first?

Summary
The main courtyard near the entrance is busy with the usual rustle of nervous new arrivals. Servants fresh from various parts of our land stand in a neat line, faces down, eyes wide. I stand beside one of the head eunuchs, arms folded as I look them over. I’m not here to greet them, I’m here to see them. To catch what others miss.
Then I see her. Fifth from the left. Hair tied lazily. Lips chapped. And those eyes. Those vibrant blue eyes that are so much like my own. My little sister. Maomao.
I don’t breathe. I don’t move. I simply look back at her, calm on the surface but on the inside my thoughts are racing as I experience every emotion all at once.
As if she feels the heat of my stare her own eyes glide to mine and I can see recognition flicker in her expression for just a second before reverting back to her neutral expression.
We say nothing. No movement. No obvious expressions. Just the quiet recognition of two sisters who haven’t seen each other in years and are both too smart to show it.

Wherein the Former Emperor learns how to survive in a palace that teaches him nothing but fear, and how he carries that fear into the lives he later ruins. -
