"What is love? I used to think that love was nothing more than a distraction but when I met her I knew love was more than that, I loved her but was forced to marry another."

Our main character, Li Tian You is the eldest legitimate son of the current Emperor's brother, Prince Zi. As you could tell Tian You grew up with both fame and power, but who would have known that under the mask of being the Emperor's nephew he was nothing but a puppet controlled by his father and bullied by his stepmother...

On the other side, there was the spoiled, stubborn but beautiful third Princess of Dong Yue, Li Chiu Yeung, Tian You's cousin. Because of her personality, nobody wanted to marry her. But fate had different plans, out of irresistible circumstances, Tian You ended up betraying his lover and married Princess Chiu Yeung. 
How would these two lovers cross paths as they set aside their differences? Especially since Li Tian You blames Chiu Yeung for the death of her father. 
 
What would happen when Tian You's sweetheart, Lin Xin Er comes and finds him? Will Tian You and Chiu Yueng finally set aside their difference and find love or would Xin Er's appearance ruin everything? Or would both girls become part of Tian You's harem? And what secret does Xin Er herself hold?
============================================
Let me make myself clear this is not incest as the main characters aren't related. You will see why during the story. The plot and all the characters are original. It isn't translated. There might be some grammatical mistakes as English is not my first language. The book cover isn't mine, I found it on Pinterest so credits go to the artist. 
The timeliness is based in ancient China. 
It's for both genders to read, but maybe a bit more for females cause it's mostly a historical romance.

The Prince and his wives

My dance with Shang Gu ended as I got dragged into a dance circle where the male partners stand in a circle and danced with the moving ladies going in a circle. Many young gentlemen joined as well as respected ladies. I danced with several as they blushed and acted coy toward me. ' Useless have they not heard of the rumours? looks like the rumours I asked Yu Xuan To spread aren't enough. He has more work to do.


( ' Achoo who is talking behind my back ?' Yu Xuan thought )


The music finally finished as the dance circle ended. Eyes moved in my direction as the third princess made her way towards me acting coyly she spoke " Would this gentleman like to have a dance with me?". Goodness I'm not even in the mood, sensing trouble Yao Yao ran towards my side as she replied bowing down " Third princess maybe gege would take a dance with you later, would you mind waiting? It seems that he is quite tired,". "An ping who is this?" She asked " In reply to your highness this is Prince Zi's foster daughter Li Tian Yao," An-Ping quoted " oh so just another lowery person who had enough luck to be fostered by imperial shu*(1)," she remarked haughtily. 'How dare she. Who does she think she is?' My fist hardens as I felt two hands clutching different hands. On the left was Tian Yao who shook her head as I look in her direction, the other was Shang Gu doing the exact thing. I shook both their hands off and said holding my anger " Third princess Tian Yao is my little sister, if you say things like this then I'm afraid I can't take a dance with you,". Dragging Shang Gu with me I walked away leaving the hall. " Tian Yao doesn't follow me, enjoy your night with Rong Ping. Shang Guan Tao watched over my sister for me, so send her back at the end of this event.


I WAS UTTERLY EMBARRASSED. Since Li Tian, You left I walk out not long later. As the door closed I sated behind and listen to the chatter and not long later the atmosphere returned to normal. Father is gonna scold me. Gosh.


Uhh not long after I left the banquet Yao Yao was sent back by Shang Guan Tao. As she headed in Tao di commented "You gege I've sent your sister safely back so I'm gonna go now. Goodbye,". " Ah ok..." I started as " Yu Xuan interrupted me " Mister Shang Guan please wait! Childe come let us head off to moon valley Jiang Hu's head leader Yu Wen Jiang Lao has died and many sects are coming towards moon Valley, I gather they suspect we did it. If wasn't for Shang Guan Yue sending me a pigeon letter then your secret would no longer be a secret. I've already told Shang Gu she went there to block them. Please let us use Qing Gong*(2) I've gotten your clothes,". "Let us go. Tao di are you following?" I asked " Yes Let me just send this carriage back home. Zhi er*(3)  go home and wait for me, hmm," He replied as the carriage moved back leaving the Chong Xue Zhi in the carriage speechless and fuming in anger. " Tao di not bad, hahaha," I laughed " Aiyo why are we still standing here?"
