The Eternal Nawab: Saifullah's Divine Empire

In 1751, a dying empire is reborn through the soul of a man out of time. Saifullah-ud-Doula, the newly crowned Nawab of Bengal, is not who he seems. Born with the memories of a 21st-century Bangladeshi scholar, he awakens to a world on the brink of catastrophe: the British East India Company’s shadow looms over Bengal’s riches, his court simmers with betrayal, and history’s tides are poised to drown his people in blood and subjugation. But Saifullah refuses to let fate repeat itself. Armed with knowledge of the future—and the unshakable resolve of a man who has already died once—he vows to forge a new destiny. With his fiery cousin Siraj-ud-Daula as his loyal sword arm, Saifullah launches a revolution. He modernizes Bengal’s crumbling armies with flintlock rifles and guerrilla tactics, outmaneuvers the British in cutthroat trade wars, and ignites an industrial renaissance with steam-powered looms and steel mills. His vision? A unified Indian subcontinent under an enlightened Islamic empire, where science and faith coexist, and where Bengal’s prosperity rivals—then surpasses—the British Empire itself. But ambition breeds enemies. Mir Jafar, a scheming noble, plots with Robert Clive to poison Saifullah’s reforms. Conservative clerics decry his "non-Islamic" machines, while Hindu kings and Maratha warlords eye his growing power with suspicion. Even Siraj’s loyalty wavers as Saifullah’s methods grow ruthless—taxing aristocrats into oblivion, manipulating allies, and sacrificing thousands to build railways and telegraph lines decades ahead of schedule. As Saifullah races against history, he battles not just colonial greed, but the weight of his own conscience. Can a man who remembers the horrors of Partition and poverty truly unite a fractured land? Or will his quest to save Bengal become the very tyranny he sought to destroy?

Betrothed to a Billionaire

--- Ariana was rooted to the floor outside of Anthony’s door her heart raced in her chest, like something was preparing to break apart her ribs. She had not wanted to come to a halt, much less listen in on the conversation that was unfolding before her. But the sound of laughter that came from Rachel was not new to her ears which suddenly had her face the direction of the voice like a pupet. “…you’re so bad, Anthony,” Rachel whispered sexily. “I never lie to you,” Anthony countered sullenly then suddenly grew smarmy, “I’m only bad with you.” Reaching out Ariana braced her back against the wall and her mind whirled round with confusion. Glancing around the corner she stopped breathing as she saw them. Rachel resting on Anthony laps, having her hand resting on Anthony’s arm. He leered at her, and from even his bearing suggest that he wanted something more than friendship from her. “She has not realized it yet?” Rachel asked me in low tones as if Shareen was a hopeless case. Anthony chuckled. “He realized Ariana was smart, as well as trusting in his team. That’s her weakness.” Such words are a shock for Ariana as if someone slapped her. [His fists clenched.]His hands shook, and for a moment she considered; she felt that nausea could overcome herself. Trust. That was what she had delivered to them – what she considered they deserved. And now? Now they were laughing about it, about her . She wanted to rush into the room and meet them eye to eye, look them into the eyes and scold them for every single angry word that rises within her chest. But she didn’t move. Not yet. She held a strap of her bag so tightly her hands became gloved. Indeed, she retreated sensibly, her breathing becoming light. It was not so strange they did not notice her go ; of course they did not. Why would they, if they reckoned she did not know any better? And when she came to the door of the house, shutting herself out on the cold evening, when the wind caressed her cheek like a slate, then in her soul something leaped. The heartbreak was still there, but it was buried beneath a wave of something new,rage. But she paused and with her head held high she walked away leaving her legs give away from her. The frosty night’s darkness embraced her when she tripped outside, onto the campus and grass., but the freezing air was no match for the icy sensation in her chest. She began to ponder vigorously various questions, accusations and processes of retaliation in her mind. But she didn’t see the car. This blaring of the horn was too late. There was the pathetic squealing of brakes and a moment of unbearable agony that filled her from head to toe. The world staggered, and the last thing Ariana could make out before everything went black was the night sky above her. Everything went black. ---

La fortune charismatique de la fille de la ferme

Au bord de la Rivière Xishui, vivait une famille du nom de Ruo, dont la chance était si désastreusement mauvaise qu'il semblait que la malchance était possédée par leurs propres âmes. Quand les autres familles récoltaient abondamment, la Famille Ruo ne récoltait pas un seul grain. Leurs légumes plantés étaient dévorés par les insectes, leurs poulets attrapaient la peste aviaire, leurs porcs attrapaient la fièvre porcine... Malgré une maison pleine d'hommes forts, ils étaient soit fous, soit estropiés, soit aveugles... Ce qui aurait dû être une famille prometteuse était devenue la plus pauvre dans un rayon de dix milles. La seule chose que les autres enviaient à la Famille Ruo, c'était ses membres mâles prospères ! La vieille dame de la Famille Ruo avait donné naissance à six fils, qui lui avaient ensuite donné quatre petits-fils. Elle rêvait jour et nuit d'avoir une petite-fille. Lorsqu'elle eut enfin un petit-enfant, à son désarroi, l'enfant était mentalement handicapé : à plus de trois ans, elle ne pouvait ni parler ni marcher, ne pouvait même pas manger ou se soulager sans aide. Tout le monde pensait que la Famille Ruo ne renverserait jamais la vapeur de leur destin dans cette vie ! Jusqu'au jour où l'enfant mentalement handicapé de trois ans et demi s'écria soudainement, "Maman..." Les cieux commençaient à changer. Le monde commençait à revêtir un air mystérieux. Dans la cour de la Famille Ruo, les kakis mûrissaient du jour au lendemain. Les légumes dans les champs, presque grignotés jusqu'à la tige par les insectes, devenaient luxuriants et verts. La vieille poule qui n'avait jamais pondu se mit soudain à pondre... Tandis que les autres faisaient face à la famine, le grenier de la Famille Ruo était plein. Le fils aîné n'était plus fou, le deuxième fils n'était plus estropié, le troisième fils n'était plus aveugle... La vieille dame de la Famille Ruo, les mains sur les hanches, riait à gorge déployée vers le ciel, "Qui dit que ma Xuanbao est simple d'esprit ? Elle est clairement un trésor de bénédictions !" (Ceci est un roman de terroir avec une touche de charme féerique, où la protagoniste féminine de sa vie antérieure était un lis du jour qui s'éveillait à peine et qui s'est réincarnée en humaine.)
