(Two male leads + pure love + mutual salvation + bad ending)
Delicate scholar-prince consort × broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted warrior crown prince
May the Matchmaker’s red thread transcend the bonds of worldly love, tie us together, and bear witness to the sincerity in both our hearts!
Though our marriage arranged by convention may never come to pass, I pray the Matchmaker’s skillful hands will bind us together for three lifetimes.
Your Highness, the Crown Prince, please grant me a way out!
The court is rife with undercurrents. Two ambitious men seek to control the affairs of the realm, and obstacles lie in their path. Can they ultimately stand together at the summit?
Shen Zeyuan: “Across ten thousand miles of mountains and rivers, the stars turn and dynasties change. That is ordinary. But my love for one person cannot be changed. Between the realm and him, I choose him.”
Chu Xijin: “I’ll follow you even as strangers, until death.”
Shen Zeyuan: “The Matchmaker has accepted the incense. From now on, you’ll be stuck with me.”
Chu Xijin: “Just what I’ve been hoping for.”
(Note: This is a spur-of-the-moment work, and my debut novel. It has many shortcomings, so please be kind!! (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c) Please ignore the ridiculous title. I never expected it to pass so soon <(._.)>)
Not bad. Keep up the good work, author. It's worth a read.
Very touching story
