Tuoba Zhen had been emperor for only a few short years in his previous life, yet he died on his wedding night. What he never understood while alive was why the subordinate who had fought alongside him to conquer the realm had turned against him over a woman.
Reborn, he would never compete with his subordinate for a woman again. If the man took a fancy to anyone's woman, Tuoba Zhen would immediately order her given to him. He would even give him the empress.
But why was the man's gaze growing darker and darker? "Your Majesty, you don't understand love..."
Tuoba Zhen had suffered terribly in his previous life:
At six, his kingdom fell and his family was destroyed. Under the protection of Zhu Su, a palace guard, he narrowly escaped and spent years fleeing from danger. At eighteen, he successfully restored his kingdom and ascended the throne. Zhu Su was named a great general for his service protecting the emperor.
He enjoyed a few comfortable years, but then an argument with Zhu Su over the matter of taking an empress ended with him inexplicably dying that very night.
Reborn, he couldn't be bothered to fight for his life anymore. Whatever woman Zhu Su wanted, he would give him, even the empress. Why not? If Zhu Su wanted the realm stretching ten thousand miles, he could have that too.
He had spent his whole life pursuing great ambitions, only for the fruits of his labor to become someone else's wedding gift. He might as well spend this life eating, drinking, and waiting to die.
But the mysteries of his past life gradually became clear.
He had wronged Zhu Su in his previous life, so this time he would stay by his side!
