Seizing You: The Emperor Regrets It to This Day

“When Your Majesty personally bestowed me upon another back then, did you ever imagine you would regret it so bitterly today?”

Married life was like walking on thin ice.

A year after her wedding, she “ran into” the Emperor at Yuntai Temple.

Dressed in plain robes, her dark hair unbound, she looked like a young woman awaiting her wedding day.

He was captivated by her innocence, unaware that this was the first move in her scheme.

After that came several more “chance encounters”: praying for blessings, listening to the rain, sharing meals.

She always observed proper decorum, while he grew more and more captivated.

Back at the palace, he could never stop thinking of that lock of dark hair falling loose.

It was only when her husband was framed and she ran everywhere seeking help that she truly entered his sight.

He wielded her husband's innocence like a blade, forcing her to draw near.

Yet before the throne, she lowered her eyes and smiled faintly. “His Majesty personally decreed this marriage. How could I, a minister's wife, dare break my vows?”

“And isn't all of this now the best possible ending?”

A sovereign's word is never taken back. The game had long been set in motion...

[She used the marriage he arranged to destroy every last feeling he would ever have]

[She played the devoted minister's wife; he lost his mind from the sidelines]

#He wants to reclaim the woman he once rejected

#She wants to destroy the Emperor's eternally unhealed heart

#Your Majesty, you were the one who turned me into the thorn in your heart#
