Everyone knew that Princess Ning Yuan of Zhaofei was gentle as water and as refined as jade.
On the day she rebelled, everyone from the ministers to the common people had the same two words written across their faces: disbelief.
At her coronation, the Imperial Preceptor Shen Heqing placed the crown on her head before the eyes of the world and declared that she was chosen by heaven.
His face was so beautiful it made the heart flutter, yet Ning Yuan would not even spare him a glance. Her coldness terrified everyone.
She had paved her path to the throne with blood. She didn’t believe in any so-called mandate of heaven. Heaven’s will? When had she ever relied on heaven, or accepted her fate?
Shen Heqing had had enough. By day, he served as Imperial Preceptor; by night, he warmed the Empress’s bed. Yet she wouldn’t even give him a title. He submitted a memorial: “I wish to leave the palace. I beg Your Majesty to grant me permission.”
Ning Yuan’s eyes were bloodshot, her voice hoarse as she looked down at him. “Don’t even think about it.”
Few people knew why the Empress’s temperament had changed so drastically, but Ning Yuan knew: she was trapped in an icy abyss, and that peerlessly beautiful man was her only warmth.
No matter how possessive she became, she would still dote on him. No matter how lost she felt, her devotion to him would never change.
She would never again let others treat her like a plaything or use her. She would take his hand and rule the world!
I have mixed feelings after reading this... The heroine is really pitiful. She has been calculated since she was born. Everyone takes advantage of her. Only the male protagonist is really towards her, but she deceives him again and again. I thought it was the male protagonist Si, but I didn't expect it to be the female protagonist Si (actually, I still hope it is the male protagonist Si. The female protagonist is really sorry for the male protagonist's love for her. She can betray everyone. She should not betray the male protagonist 😢😢 Male protagonist Si. The female protagonist regrets her whole life.) Although I don't like the outcome of the female protagonist Si, it is very reasonable.
Well written, keep up the good work and don't stop placing orders
Alas, it is difficult to calm down after all
Is it a male protagonist?
The article is very well written. I thought I might cry after reading this book, but I felt very complicated after reading it. What the heroine did seemed wrong, but when I think about it, it makes sense. What I saw in this book is the human heart and human nature.
The writing is good, but I just can't accept the ending.
The heroine is pitiful in the early stage, but beautiful and powerful in the later stage. It is a sweet story 🥺 🥺 🥺
There is a strategy, the heroine dies in the end
Madam, madam, she's pretty
A bit cruel, but not bad
