Synopsis

[Transmigration + marriage first, love later + palace intrigue + super sweet]

On the Lantern Festival, lanterns glowed beneath the night sky, and the evening was perfect. Chu Jingci held Feng Yunsheng's hand as they admired the bustling scene together. Suddenly, a voice as clear as a silver bell rang beside his ear.

“Jingci, look, fireworks!”

“Jingci, look, how beautiful!”

At that moment, time seemed to stand still. The person before him was impossibly sweet and gentle... His eyes held no one else; the world around them was all her.

“Yan'er.”

“Hmm?”

“I would paint the whole world with my brush, and promise you a lifetime of splendor.”

“Jingci, all others seem like grass and trees to me. You alone are a mountain.”

As the troops prepared to depart, a woman dressed in white climbed onto the city wall, holding a cup of wine. Her hair, falling past her shoulders, fluttered in the wind...

“Yan'er, what are you doing? Get down, it's dangerous up there!”

The voice of Emperor Chu Jingci echoed in her ears. This might be the last time she would hear him call her that.

“Don't come any closer. Take one more step, and I'll jump.”

He and the others stopped in their tracks. Her words shook everyone and pierced his heart.

“Chu Jingci...”

Before anyone could react, the woman in white downed the poisoned wine and toppled from the city wall...

“Jingci, I hope we can meet again by chance in our next life...”

Afterward, the emperor abdicated and traveled the world, searching for the one who had left him. After a thousand years of wind and rain, we will meet again.

At last, those destined to meet found each other.

The wind stirred three thousand strands of hair; you turned and smiled, our hearts entwined for three lifetimes and beyond.

I've Been Into Palace Intrigue Lately 😍 Hand Over Your Top Palace Intrigue Picks!

Looking for books like "The Empress's Consort Is Cunning, and the Emperor Can't Resist Her". The leads don't have to be each other's firsts!!! They don't have to be each other's firsts!!! But the female lead must be clear-headed and strong, not weak. Some angst is fine. I like stories set in fictionalized historical worlds, as long as the plot is well-crafted and detailed, hehe.
