The gentle young man in the past has become an iron-blooded Yama, but when she saluted, he lost his breath: "Ah Wan... You are beautiful in mourning clothes." 💫 The relationship between the characters is like a tangle of branches: 👵 Mrs. Jiang clenched the prayer beads tightly: "Just come back, I will open an ancestral hall tomorrow to remove your name." 🕯️ Song Wan pinched his fingertips into the palm of his hand: "I have been a widow for six years, and I have recognized the wrong person." 🗡️ He wiped the blood-stained sword and chuckled: "Then this unfinished marriage letter is written to a ghost?" ✒️ The writing style is as meticulous as the white flags in the mourning hall, the green silk wrapped with sword tassels, and the unfinished vows under the crabapple tree, outlining the sharpest tenderness. 🌟 Critical highlights: - When the "widow" collides with the "resurrected" - The childhood sweethearts who were crushed by conspiracy in those years - The fatal pull between the ancestral hall and the wedding room ⚠️ Reading warning: Prepare the ice handkerchief!
