Synopsis

Ning Huan, the concubine of the Zhenguo Palace, lived for seventeen years under the bullying of her aunt and sister, and was once offered a marriage to the regent Xiao Yan, who was rumored to have "killed three fiancées." On her wedding day, she thought she was certain to die, but she didn't expect that this cold-faced murderer not only didn't kill her, but instead stepped forward when she was in danger and said the shocking words "I can't bear it anymore." As they got along, Ning Huan discovered that Xiao Yan was not as ruthless as the outside world rumored - he would remember every word she casually said, and would silently buy her favorite books, washed strawberries, and a box of non-expired candies. What's even more shocking is that Xiao Yan has waited for her for seventeen years. A secret edict from the late emperor hidden in the cellar of the Shen family's old house revealed the truth that had been hidden for seventeen years: Ning Huan's biological mother was not an ordinary musician, but the only surviving bloodline of the Shen family; the current emperor's throne had a shady origin; and everything Xiao Yan had done in these years was just to protect her. When the secret edict was in hand and the country was at stake, Ning Huan made a decision that surprised everyone - she burned the secret edict and chose another way of "revenge". This is a story about waiting, protection and redemption. The male protagonist waited for seventeen years, but never said love, but engraved love in every detail; the female protagonist went from humble and cowardly to radiant, and finally understood: the fate destined in the name is to live up to the family rather than the joy.

It's short and concise, the language is concise, and the way the male and female protagonists get along is quite special. The emperor surprised me. No loss in investing.

The heroine Ning Huan is indomitable, and Xiao Yan is brave and resourceful. The story between the two is very exciting and worthy of recommendation.

Everyone in the World Is Afraid of His Cruelty and Paranoia, but Only I Know All His Gentleness

I want to watch content similar to "Oops, I failed to redeem the dank villain". Focusing on the core setting of the heroine's unexpected redemption of the dank and paranoid villain, the novel's opening chapter and complete synopsis are created with distinctive characters and a sense of plot, highlighting the sense of contrast and fate, and fitting the ancient saying.
