Synopsis

Everyone says Luo Jinyan married into a good family, with kind in-laws and a loving husband. But only she knows the filth hidden beneath their devoted marriage.

Only after the wedding did she learn that Pei Zhiyan had fallen in love with his widowed sister-in-law, the concubine-born elder brother's wife, and had passed off their illegitimate child as her own.

He took advantage of her, making her exhaust herself raising his stepson, then waited until she was on her deathbed before putting an end to her life.

Reborn, Luo Jinyan is determined to divorce him.

But divorcing someone in a marriage personally bestowed by the emperor is no easy matter.

With nowhere else to turn, she climbs into the bed of that notoriously tyrannical ruler...

The tyrant has never been interested in women, but she makes him break his vow of abstinence.

After securing her divorce, Luo Jinyan wants only to find a widower and live out the rest of her days in peace. But the tyrant, now addicted to her, has her imprisoned by his side.

Even when powerful officials accuse her of coveting another man's wife, Pei Yiyuan pulls her into his arms. “You have been mine for a long time. You still think you can marry another man?”

Pure Historical Romance, No Transmigration or Rebirth

Looking for books similar to Notes on Gathering Spring. Any purely historical romance novels where the male lead isn't a rough, macho type? Generals and princes are all so overdone. I'd like something more unusual.
