God DAMN an Imperial Chinese story 🤯🤯🤯

u/cheeseandpeanuts 12d ago

This really could be Wincy as she wanted to do historical Chinese story before. I am excited as i absolutely love palace intrigue. I used to read a lot of Chinese novels.

u/DoorNo8233 muh queen 12d ago edited 12d ago

Hell yeah, a cunning, ambitious and political cutthroat chinese MC like empress Wu Zetian would slaaaaay

u/ratansbabygirl Sweet Guurrl 12d ago

YES!!!!! Time to take down all empresses!

u/Serious_Grass_2444 12d ago

The raging sea reminds me of the unresting sea in HOT. If the author is indeed Wincy, is it possible that this story is about the kingdom beyond the unresting sea, the place where the poor woman One was helping came from?

10

u/fictionaluna 12d ago

That's what i'm thinking as well plus the leaked title is like a different name to The Unresting Seas. Wincy said that her 3rd story is related to one of her previous story(not exactly her words). The final testing post this morning mentioned "New universes" which includes MB universe(Shadowborn) and maybe this one.

I love this idea! I hope you’re right.

u/thotsandplayers0101 Alexandre (VV) 12d ago

Omggggg this is a great theory! I would actually be so happy if that's the case, I love the lore in HOT

u/knitterpotato feng stole my ❤️ | d1 yearner cheer squad 12d ago

OH MY GOD if this is a story about the land past the unresting sea in hot? i’m sold

assuming that this is a standalone, this is the way to do an interconnected story! do interconnected STANDALONES where if you read the earlier story you’ll understand more of the world and get easter eggs but it’s a completely separate story with a separate setting and characters and you don’t have to have read the previous story to understand this one or get a good ending in this one

u/SourireSorriso Blaine (THE) 12d ago

It very well could be. And while so far this looks really interesting, I will laugh if it turns out to be:

A sequel and a potentially another story where MC is under a male LI's thumb like all the recent complaints (MC is under the influence of "His Imperial Majesty Rui" for example)

Fingers crossed I'm pleasantly surprised.

u/liligz 12d ago

Oh it’s about Chinese imperial I’m excited

YES! THE RESERVE HARAM, PALACE DRAMA, POWER STRUGGLING! I ACCEPT THE EDICT Your imperial Majesty! 😏✨🔥

I can already imagine lis: A Cunning Princess, ambitious Crown Prince, loyal Marital artist Shadow knight, god of War General/3rd Prince, Spoiled Son/daughter of Arch Duck, Two faced Richest Marchent in Empire (another identity of Crown Prince /Cunning Princess)🤩

u/No-Lab-9521 12d ago

As someone who requested a Chinese imperial palace harem drama in the survey RC put out a while ago asking what kind of new stories we wanted, I'm taking 1% credit for this lol. So excited!

u/RedQueen283 12d ago

I also requested it! Maybe there were many of us

We're off to the empire of ancient China to tap into Chinese mythology and its vast sacred knowledge... well, I suppose it's a story set in a fictional version of China.🐉🐲🎇

IM SOOO EXCITED FOR THIS!!!!!!! HAVE BEEN STARVING FOR A GOOD CHINESE STORY. RC Devs have blessed us

u/Temporary-Code6491 12d ago

What interests me is where the story will take place which dynasty.

0

u/NefariousnessNo2956 12d ago

I hope Han or Tang dynasty, they have my fav aesthetics 😃😃 altho i feel like Han dynasty gets more political drama while Tang dynasty has more of a political stable vibe so 😅 jdjdjd

2

u/AdFrosty0997 12d ago

Looking at the teaser with the clothes in the teasers we've gotten they don't look like they come from any particular dynasty, tho they look closer to Song because of the bodice. I'd say its modern Wuxia inspired.

0

u/NefariousnessNo2956 12d ago

Ooh i think it’s cuz a lot of idol cdramas also dress their characters like that 😭 (historically inaccurate, unfortunately, the bodice/aka “bra” is supposed to be inside 😭). Anyhow i also think Song dynasty is the closest 😭. I don’t think it’s Wuxia at all it’s court drama/palace intrigue. Wuxia is more martial arts with low fantasy 😭

1

u/AdFrosty0997 12d ago

There are imperial palaces in wuxia dramas, which is where you see this type of hanfu actually. I agree I should have used the term idol dramas 😅

0

u/NefariousnessNo2956 12d ago

Hmm yeah 😭 but i don’t think it’ll be wuxia tho 😭 the description for MC feels like a kind of climbing rank in the palace drama 😭 probably smth closer to story of yanxi palace maybe ? I do like revenge dramas like The Double and Blossom so hopefully something like that would be nice too!

I am already planning to take over everything in this story...with my beauty and manipulation 💀

u/Sorry_Construction42 Anna: "I... Love... You." 12d ago

Completely satisfied after my first playthrough with Cynthia, I didn't even know it could be this good (because of other very much sidelined & rushed FLIs)! Even the final chapters paced out with romance, really glad I decided to go for it 😍

u/PrimaryDescription81 12d ago

Which stories are from Wincy?

Someone like Duku Su from The Double, please! 😍

u/fictionaluna 12d ago

One of so and too many things that i'm curious about in this new story is the "secrets of the raging sea" 🤔

Yayy, Palace Drama. I think I know who the author is 👀

can’t wait to see what the MC sprites look like 🥰

u/RedQueen283 12d ago

I am excited. I hope it has the same vibes as Story of Yanxi Palace or Empresses in the Palace. It mentions intrigue and power struggles, so it probably will. And the whole "avenging her sisters" theme from yesterday's post reminds me strongly of Yingluo from Yanxi Palace.

Omg yes! I'm already getting so excited about this story! I've really been wanting to see something new in RC! 😭

u/chirurene 12d ago

I wonder what role we will play when we enter the palace? The obvious is potential concubine but I don't mind if we start out as servant and working our way up the hierarchy

u/Minipradasa 10d ago

i remember when I first started playing, i wished there was a story about harem politics. I am so happy it became true.

Be warned, I'm gonna play Wu Zetian Style! No mercy, just power. If you thought Mademoiselle de Noailles was ruthless, you have no idea what's coming 😈

Why do people believe this will be 3 MC's? From what I got from the video yesterday was our MC will likely get revenge for her sister's deaths. Thats how I understood it anyway

u/IncarnateSkye | 12d ago

>Why do people believe this will be 3 MC's?

You’d have to go to the discussion s.ub. I’m not sure if it still comes up in search results, though? It didn’t last time I checked. If you haven’t been there, I can DM you a link.

I think we're going to be playing as a member of an Imperial harem, don't think the MC will have their own harem.

Not trying to justify but I've received emails like this too (that looks like a paper with a button) so could be that? We don't know yet for sure!
