Originally titled "The Evil Purple Usurps the Vermilion". Coercive possession, love and hate intertwined, with conflict from beginning to end.
A dangerously unstable, dark-hearted hero who hides his true nature × a heroine who is gentle on the outside, strong within, and just as fierce and ruthless.
Born into the family of a low-ranking government clerk, Qin Zhuye should have married into the Wei family and lived a quiet life, like all the young noblewomen in Luoyang.
But when her maternal grandfather's family suddenly fell from power, her father's position was dragged into the fallout as well. Forced to get involved in order to save her loved ones, Zhuye discovered that the Qin and Liu families, and she herself, had long been under someone's shadow.
Li Muchao was born into an eminent aristocratic family. Once the young emperor's favored minister rose to power, he launched a sweeping purge of political opponents at court. At the height of his success, there was only one person he could not forget: the woman he had glimpsed years ago, whose image had become a blood-red mark on his heart.
So he quietly laid his bait, luring her into his trap one step at a time. He watched her from the shadows, forcing her to draw closer to him little by little.
Months later, the Wei family sent a bridal sedan to the Qin residence to fetch their bride, only to bring home an empty one. The woman who should have been inside it instead tore at the sash on his clothes that very night, furious and humiliated.
Zhuye hated him for cutting off every path of escape, yet she had no choice but to depend on the way out he offered her.
Bound together for a lifetime, bound by hatred for a lifetime. Only death could end it.
Then one day, she finally found a chance to escape. She coaxed him, deceived him, and lulled him into letting down his guard. On the eve of their wedding, she rode out of Luoyang alone.
On the wedding day, the Li residence also received an empty bridal sedan. Li Muchao sat in silence all night. The next day, he saw that her medical records clearly showed she was pregnant. Overcome with rage and resentment, he spat out a great mouthful of blood.
After enduring many twists and turns, Zhuye earned merit for putting down a rebellion and was promoted by the emperor to serve as an official at court.
On her first day at the government offices, her colleagues gave her the cold shoulder at every turn. Someone offered her a piece of advice: curry favor with that man, and your career will flourish.
Zhuye looked up. The man they meant was none other than Li Muchao, the very man she had abandoned on their wedding night, now the most powerful figure at court.
Both leads are each other's only love. One-on-one romance. An alternate history inspired by the Tang dynasty.
Theme: Wild grass is hard to break.
None of the men around Zhuye are particularly normal.
It's so cool ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 🤩
The embarrassment of arguing with his mother was completely visible to Li Mu Chao. Zhu Ye was a little self-defeating. Why was Li Mu Chao always able to see his embarrassment? Li Muchao's relief was that if she had met him earlier, she would have seen his embarrassment, but this made Zhuye find it hard to laugh. She just kept blaming herself and feeling upset. She cried and complained that she still felt that her existence was a tacit mistake made by her family. Perhaps she had secretly thought about it in countless midnight dreams in the past, but she never took the initiative to tell anyone about it. In my opinion, Qin Zhuye has always been strong, but I also know that Qin Zhuye is fragile, and this worry is unique to Qin Zhuye. What was Li Muchao thinking while listening to his lover crying? Could it be that everything that is happening now was not caused by his single-handed push to create the current situation? But he will not regret it. The principle of no regrets is that if a person wants to gain something, he must also lose something. This is only fair. The original idea of joining the court was because of his relatives, but fate caused all his relatives to die. If he wants to get Qin Zhuye, the current situation is what he has to bear. People are selfish, so he asked her to be selfish. Only by being selfish can you get what you want, and only by being selfish can you not lose what you have. The reunion between mother and daughter a few days later was always a little awkward, but the appearance of two young girls in front of the audience gave Zhuye the answer to the question that had been bothering Zhuye for a long time. She quickly went to find the princess, and a conversation with the princess made Zhuye understand that there was another Li Muchao who knew the truth about Yaocheng. When I saw this paragraph, I heard "Yesterday's love can never come back" in my ears, but it still lingered in my heart. Once suspicion arises, the crime is already established. Under Li Muchao's questioning, she used a montage of lies to smooth things over, but the excuse seemed to be really bad. So what else will happen next? Does the appearance of those two girls have any other meaning? Finally, I wish you all good luck in September
When Zhu Ye was busy with an unexpected incident, Liu's mother came when she learned that Zhu Ye was going to marry Zhang. Under her mother's questioning, Zhu Ye's reaction made her, a person who had been trapped in a fixed frame, even more angry, but she couldn't say those unbearable words. She was talking about her daughter, so she wanted to know what her daughter was thinking, and Li Muchao, the son-in-law, would actually agree to such a ridiculous thing (?). Zhuye's unfinished explanation was interrupted by her again, and she blurted out the unbearable words to Zhuye. When I saw this, I felt unsurprisingly silent. Maybe it was because I had the same mother-daughter problem, but Zhuye always loved and cared about her mother. After Zhuye said that he didn't want his child to be born, he didn't even dare to say who his mother was. Qin Zhuye? Cui's daughter? Yang Xihua? My selfish intention is to hope that Qin Zhuye will always be herself. When hearing these words, the two people, one Li Muchao and the other Liu Mu, both had different moods. Li Muchao's reaction made me wonder if he regretted his past actions? In my opinion, Mother Liu's reaction was like that of a cat whose tail has been stepped on. She wanted to leave, but she also wanted to know what her daughter would say, because she realized for the first time that she had never really known her daughter. The quarrel between mother and daughter made me stunned for a long time. Not only did I feel the same way, but especially when I saw what Zhu Ye said, I didn't feel very happy when I said it. When I saw my mother's appearance, I felt even more uncomfortable. It is true that words spoken are overwhelming, but if they are not spoken out, the grievances will snowball like a snowball until they avalanche. I see that Zhuye has always felt that she was the one who caused her mother to become like this. I want to tell Zhuye that this is not your fault from the beginning to the end. You are not the one who made such a choice. You do not need to bear the consequences of your parents' choices because of their choices. This conversation between mother and daughter reminds me of a passage I saw before: "Don't say that parents are parents for the first time. The most important thing is that no matter how many times you have been a parent, you have been a child once." Although this sentence is not completely appropriate in this situation, in my personal opinion, neither Qin Simeng nor Liu Miaowu have fulfilled their responsibilities as fathers and mothers. The former is a scumbag, while the latter is completely self-absorbed. At the end of the conversation, Zhuye still awkwardly expressed her concern for her mother. As the intermediary between the mother and daughter, Li Muchao also raised Zhuye's suspicions, but we, Mr. Li, said he was wronged! Instead of doubting him, it is better to doubt a certain ex-husband. I was particularly touched by the mother and daughter in this chapter who care so much about Li Xianggong 🐶🌹 who is madly pulling Wei Qi. Finally, today is the Chinese Valentine's Day, I wish everyone a happy Chinese Valentine's Day 🐰
Li Muchao, at this time, you still want to criticize Wei Mingyi with a comment 🌈
Zhuye did nothing wrong, it has nothing to do with you! Pearl night!
Children are innocent, Zhuye is innocent 😭
Zhuye, who was summoned to the princess's mansion, was uneasy. After all, she also knew a little about the relationship between the princess and Zhang Faxi, and she was also worried about losing the princess's strong support because of the latter. It was obvious that the princess directly stated that Zhang Faxi had instructed her. Not only Zhuye was stunned, but I was also. After all, the blank imperial edict from Yaocheng was still vivid in our minds. We really couldn't figure out what the princess was really thinking, and what the princess was going to do next. The words also made Zhuye understand that Li Muchao and the princess, she and Li Muchao, the princess and her, the former was a temporary interest, and they were tied together. The same was true for the purpose of the so-called marriage between high families, and Zhuye's thinking was advanced. From ancient times to the present, children raised by mothers have only received the words "inherit their father's genes" from others after they have prospered, as if the mother's contribution has been ignored as it should be. But now that there is such a good opportunity in front of her, she will take it without hesitation. No one can stop her. Faced with what these elders said, Zhuye did not choose to argue but pointed out the Zhang family's current predicament. And what this kind of self-respecting and upright family values most is face and reputation. Faced with Li Muchao's unilateral "break of the promise", Zhuye suffered from unaccustomed insomnia several times, and the urge to find someone was hindered by the awkward feeling in his heart. It would be better when there was a step down. Li Muchao was sick, and Zhuye was worried that he was really sick. But he was worried that Li Muchao would repeat his old tricks (let's just say that when Li Xianggong was sick, he went to the imperial doctor and called Zhuye. Zhuye couldn't cure the disease, right? It was purely entertainment. You had to lie down when you were sick.) After seeing that Li Muchao was really sick, Zhuye's heart It seemed that he softened, and then I thought of two words: "What about you? Do you really care about me?" "Am I more than half sincere to you?" From the two people's standpoints, I couldn't help but feel sorry for the other person T^T Zai Zhuye said that he didn't know how to face himself When his ex-father-in-law, Li Muchao said to Zhuye, "As long as you think about what you want and what you want to do, you will definitely know how to face him." This sentence made Zhuye think about it for several days and didn't understand it, but it gave me, who was confused outside the screen, an answer. When I really see my ex-father-in-law Wei Xin again and see him bowing his eyebrows and saluting me, power is such a good thing, Zhuye. I have to admire Wei Xin's inner thoughts. The old-fashioned is indeed an old-fashioned. He is criticizing Zhu Ye again. He really regards himself as a wise minister worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple. Every time Zhu Ye and Zhang Faxi meet alone, I can't help but laugh. Why do you choke each other's lungs as soon as you meet? What's on your mind? But when it comes to avoiding suspicion, here are a few pairs of CPs who have avoided suspicion for a long time. T^T, cough, let's get back to the topic. Zhang Faxi, who was laughing a second ago, saw Li Muchao behind Zhuye not laughing, and even wanted to take action. As a result, we, Li Shisan, lost all his smiles. In one day, they were both yin and yang, Zhang Faxi: I will seriously block the wall of Qin Zhuye and Li Muchao! What a bully! At this time, Zhuye also realized that the conflict between the two was not limited to herself, but there seemed to be something she didn't know about. The two of them had another argument about Zhang Zan. Zhang Faxi originally wanted to use Wei Qi as bait to threaten him, but it turned out that you, Sister Qin, didn't take the pressure at all. Zhang Faxi was silent, Zhang Faxi broke his defense, Zhang Faxi was helpless, Zhang Faxi gave up resistance, and Zhang Faxi decided to marry Zhu Ye. Zhuye also took advantage of the situation and teased Zhang Faxi to resign to serve him better. Unexpectedly, Zhang Faxi took the opportunity to step on Li Shisan. Well, knowing the truth, I remained silent and kept suppressing the corner of my mouth. It finally ended with Zhang Faxi giving up the bickering with the two. At this time, Li Muchao smelled a familiar smell of medicine. He remembered that there was a new face next to the princess who had this smell (suddenly he wondered if the princess had sent someone to eavesdrop). And from Li Muchao's memory, we also saw Zhang Faxi who was still an angry horse in bright clothes a few years ago, but now Zhang Faxi looks more like a weak person who can be knocked down by a gust of wind. Li Muchao didn't say anything but took Zhuye away and asked Zhang Faxi why he was looking for a doctor. I was really heartbroken when I watched this next part. The issue about the child earned Zhuye all the explanations at this moment, but in the face of Li Muchao's silence, Zhuye became inexplicably annoyed. Let's talk about this slowly and focus on it first. Zhuye said that if she didn't have any children in this life, the two would have nothing to do with each other and they would go back to their own way. Her words made Li Shisan angry. And Zhu Ye's short period of silence let me know that she cared about Li Shisan but she couldn't express it in front of him. He asked him if he was crazy? But Zhuye seemed like he couldn't bear what he was thinking anymore. The quarrel between the two reminded me of a certain ancient drama. I especially wanted to say to Zhuye: "There is only one Qin Zhuye in the world, and your happiness is the most important." Two idiots who sincerely love each other, the communication between the two has been hindered because of the harm of their original family. Occasionally there was a mismatch. What Zhuye cared about was that she could see how much Li Muchao wanted a child, but it was difficult for her to give it. Li Shisan thought more deeply, knowing that his position would fall from the clouds sooner or later, and the child would be implicated because of him. He didn't want to and didn't want to, because it was Zhuye's child. And these words touched Zhuye, and she told herself that she couldn't believe it, it wasn't that she didn't dare, but that she couldn't. In Li Shisan's brief words of flattery and love, the two finally reconciled. Wuwu was uneasy about being summoned to the princess's house. After all, she also knew a little about the relationship between the princess and Zhang Faxi, and she was also worried about losing her husband because of the latter. With such a strong backer, it was obvious that the princess directly expressed Zhang Faxi's instructions to her. Not only was Zhuye stunned, but so was I. After all, the blank imperial edict from Yaocheng was still fresh in our minds, and we really couldn't figure out the princess's true inner meaning. What she was thinking in her heart, and the princess's next words also made Zhuye understand, Li Muchao and the princess, she and Li Muchao, the princess and her, the former is a temporary interest, and they are tied together. The so-called high-sect marriage purpose is also the same, and Zhuye's thinking is advanced. From ancient times to the present, children raised by their mothers will only receive others' words of "inheriting their father's genes" after they succeed, as if the mother's contribution is ignored as it should be. But now that there is such a good opportunity in front of her, she will take it without hesitation. No one can stop her. Faced with what these elders said, Zhuye did not choose to argue but pointed out the Zhang family's current predicament.

This sentence made Zhuye think about it for several days and didn't understand it, but it gave me, who was confused outside the screen, an answer. When I really see my ex-father-in-law Wei Xin again and see him bowing his eyebrows and saluting me, power is such a good thing, Zhuye. I have to admire Wei Xin's inner thoughts. The old-fashioned is indeed an old-fashioned. He is criticizing Zhu Ye again. He really regards himself as a wise minister worthy of enjoying the Ancestral Temple.

After all, she also knew a little about the relationship between the princess and Zhang Faxi, and she was also worried about the latter's fate. Therefore, losing the princess as a solid backer, it was obvious that the princess directly expressed Zhang Faxi's instructions. Not only Zhuye was stunned, but I was also stunned. After all, the blank imperial edict from Yaocheng was still vivid in our minds, and we really couldn't figure out the true nature of the princess. What Zheng was thinking in his heart, and the princess's next words also made Zhuye understand that Li Muchao and the princess, she and Li Muchao, the princess and her, the former was a temporary interest, and they were tied together. The same was true for the purpose of the so-called marriage between high families, and Zhuye's thinking was advanced.

At this time, Zhuye also realized that the conflict between the two was not limited to herself, but there seemed to be something she didn't know about.

And Zhuye's short period of silence let me know that she cared about Li Shisan but she couldn't express it in front of him. He asked her if she was crazy, but Zhuye finally seemed to be unable to hold back what was in her heart and began to vent. Seeing the quarrel between the two, I wanted to say to Zhuye at this moment, "You are the only one in the world, Qin Zhuye, and your happiness is the most important." The two idiots have sincere feelings for each other. Because of the hurt of their original family, communication is difficult. There was a misalignment. What Zhuye cared about was that she could see how much Li Muchao wanted a child, but it was difficult for her to give it. Li Muchao, on the other hand, thought more deeply. He knew that his current position would fall from the clouds sooner or later, and then the child would be implicated because of him. He didn't want to and didn't want to, because this was Zhuye's child. These words also touched Zhuye, but she told herself that she couldn't believe it, it wasn't that she didn't dare, it was that she couldn't. In the end, the two reconciled due to Li Muchao's flattery and love words (can you describe it this way? Can't think of a new description next time). As soon as the two returned home, they learned about the assassination of King Xiang from Li Shen. Because of this, we also welcomed the return of an old character and the appearance of a new character. Liu Chiyuan and Su Changying from Yaocheng, one will come to Chang'an soon to take up a job, and the other Li Muchao can't find out the results after a quick search. So what difficulties will Zhuye face next? Can the marriage with Zhang Faxi still go smoothly? Can the princess successfully enthrone the crown princess? So stay tuned. By the way, I wish everyone a happy August!
I'll give you a slap in the face to make you feel better.
Li Muchao: There is a second level in 666
