[The heroine is chaste, but the hero is not. Don’t read if that bothers you. A historical setting, with a clear-eyed heroine and a mad, cruel, wickedly charming hero.]
Yuan Zhonghua should have died on that cold, snowy day in the beautiful plum grove, but the young chancellor Gao Cheng forcibly brought her back to life. Gao Cheng said he had taken a fancy to her and wanted her. She was forbidden to die until he tired of her, or he would slaughter her entire clan. She had no choice but to keep living.
Gao Cheng said he would marry her, and though she was unwilling, she could only obey and become his wife. After their marriage, she kept to her place, doing her best to be a gentle, gracious, virtuous wife. She never fought for his favor or quarreled with his concubines and mistresses. She even arranged beautiful women for him herself. She thought he would be pleased and praise her as a good wife, but instead he got angry with her every day. Strange, wasn’t this what he wanted…?
She thought she was just one of his playthings, one among many. She never expected him to be willing to give her the whole realm, or even tear out his heart for her…
Come on, I have long wanted to read a story about Gao Cheng and Yuan Zhonghua, but let me tell you, Gao Cheng and Yuan Zhonghua got married when they were twelve years old! I also hope that the novel is arranged like this. Although it is not, I also like this book very much. I hope it will not abandon the trap and sprinkle more sugar! Hope HE!
