I avenged my brother and married his "enemy".
Wei Qingyi, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Guo, decided to marry her as a substitute after her brother died in battle. She had irrefutable proof that Xie Zhaolin, the commander of the Zhenfu Division, had collaborated with the enemy and treason.
On the wedding night, the wedding candle reflected the man's cold eyes: "Now that you have entered this door, life or death is up to me."
She lowered her head and said meekly, "I understand."—The hatred in her heart was like fire, and she vowed to drag him to hell.
She pretended to be flattering and searched secretly, but found that this man was more dangerous than she thought. The late-night secret conversations in the study, the blood-stained robe, the vague and vague temptations... And the complexity that flashed through his abyss-like eyes when he occasionally looked at her.
Until that night, he came back covered in blood and pressed her against the wall, his breath hot:
"Have you had enough drama? My 'enemy' lady."
"Now, there are two ways." His voice was hoarse, and his eyes were filled with madness that she had never seen before. "One, continue to be your avenger, and we will die together before dawn."
"Two——" He wiped the blood on her face and said word by word:
"Stay with me to the end and be my 'accomplice'."
The court is in turmoil, the prince is seizing the throne, and a shocking conspiracy involving the royal bloodline gradually comes to light. The person she thought was her brother-killer turned out to be the guardian with the most stigma; the revenge she thought she had for her marriage was just a step in someone else's chess game from the beginning.
And when the truth was revealed, he stood in the middle of thousands of people, covered in blood, but he reached out to her:
"Qing Yi, this game is too dirty."
"But if the end is you, I am willing to overthrow the world."
