[Sickly fallen princess × scheming emperor uncle]
[Palace intrigue + love and hate + marriage first, love later + mutual salvation + tragic romance + bad ending]
Lin Wantang should have died by her father's sword, but she was saved by her uncle, whom she hadn't seen in eight years.
But he returned to seek revenge. He had lain in wait for twenty years for the chance to kill her father with his own hands.
After that, her engagement is annulled, she parts ways with her childhood sweetheart, and a new Consort Shu arrives at the palace.
The Haitang Palace stays brightly lit all night, with water called for again and again. Hearing the sounds from inside, the maid guarding the door often blushes.
She believes all of this is his revenge, and cries out in anguish, “You don't love me at all. You just want to see me suffer!”
No matter what he does, Yan Zhao seems unable to reach her heart.
She carries too much in her heart. One by one, the people around her leave because of her, and she is powerless to stop them.
She doesn't want to go on living like this.
Lin Wantang wraps her arms around his neck and whispers softly in his ear, “Uncle, Wanwan has only just fallen in love with you, and now I have to leave!”
(The pacing is quite fast, so please go easy on me.)
This is too cruel, right? 😢😢
