Synopsis
(This is my first time writing a novel. Because my writing isn’t very good, I’ve decided to wrap it up hastily. I’m sorry I left out so much. If the response is good, I’ll fill in the missing parts.)
Jiang Huaizuo transmigrates to the Kingdom of Huainan after a medical dispute. She is bound to System 0380, which Jiang Huaizuo later names Angela, and takes on missions in hopes of staying there. The System lies to her, claiming that her final mission is to kill Xie Jiuqing when he loves her most and help Xie Jiuxi ascend the throne. She thinks that moment has come, not knowing the System has deceived her. It is actually when she loves Xie Jiuqing most that she, Jiang Huaizuo, kills the person she loves...
Xie Jiuqing died on that snowy day.
Jiang Huaizuo can change everyone’s fate except Xie Jiuqing’s.
Xie Jiuqing seems to be someone whose good fortune was stolen. The whole story is about him, yet he isn’t the protagonist. His older brother, Xie Jiuxi, is.
There is no such thing as fairness. He was born to be a stepping stone for his older brother, Xie Jiuxi. He never believed in fate, but it seemed Heaven was playing a cruel joke on him. He realized that no matter what he did, he could never escape the chains of destiny.
Since it had already been foretold that one would be a king who lost his country and the other a wise ruler who ushered in an age of prosperity, he would be the treacherous villain who brought down the Kingdom of Huainan. He flogged ministers, imprisoned loyal subjects, promoted petty villains, murdered his father, and staged a rebellion. In the end, he died on the snowy day he loved most.
What true justice is there? What absolute light?
