In order to avoid being married off to an old widower as a house filler, Yun Zhiyi told a big lie.
She spoke freely, saying that she had an unknown and affectionate past with Fu Hanjiang, the Zhenbei general who had great military exploits but died young.
"On the eve of his departure, he hugged me and was reluctant to let go. He said he would never marry me unless I was the one in this life."
"The jade pendant he never leaves is actually a token of love that I secretly gave him."
"Don't look at his cold and fierce look, but he is actually very gentle to me."
…
Anyway, dead people can't speak, so Yun Zhiyi made it sound so emotional. The whole capital believed it, and it is said that even the old emperor in the palace was so moved that his eyes turned red.
Relying on her status as Fu Hanjiang's widow, Yun Zhiyi lived a happy life surrounded by stars.
But she never expected that "her lover" would come back alive.
The emperor clasped his hands and laughed, and ordered General Fu, who was so powerful in the Northern Desert and had fought back from the dead, to return to the court and marry her.
