Deep Love by the Luo River: The Mad Emperor's Beloved Came from Another World

Cao Rui was a deranged, possessive emperor of the Three Kingdoms period.

When he was seventeen, Cao Pi confronted Zhen Mi in the Taiji Hall. “Is this child really mine?”

Cao Rui was forcibly held down as someone cut his finger and dripped his blood onto Yuan Xi’s bones. He watched the blood mingle with them.

Zhen Mi said coldly, “Cao Pi, this is your son! You’ve been deceived by wicked people. If you still don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do. I’ll prove how wronged I am today by taking my own life.”

Cao Rui watched as his mother ignored his pleas and drank the cup of poison, dying in his arms.

He was about to take the poison and follow her in death when Cao Zhao knocked the cup away and stepped forward. “Our cook accidentally cut her finger while chopping vegetables, and her blood seeped into a sheep’s bone. Does that mean she’s a child of the sheep?”

After speaking, Cao Zhao cut his own finger and let his blood fall onto Yuan Xi’s bone. His blood seeped in just the same.

Cao Rui accepted Guo Zhao as his mother and never spoke of it again. From then on, he became reserved and obsessive.

Years later, Cao Pi fell gravely ill. Before he died, he hoped Cao Rui would treat his adoptive mother, Guo Zhao, well. But Cao Rui said nothing until his father drew his last breath.

After ascending the throne, Cao Rui went to Changqiu Palace, where Zhen Mi had once lived, and met a strangely dressed woman.

She was Hehe, a woman who had transmigrated from another time, and her appearance greatly resembled Zhen Mi’s.

Hehe, a transmigrator, healed Cao Rui’s childhood trauma and helped him conquer the land.
