Meng Hongzhuang

"I dream of your red makeup, and miss my old self." In troubled times, Jun Yuanzhao, the princess of Dingguo Changping, and Nalan Ying, the prince of Junguo who were held hostage, redeemed each other and secretly fell in love. But this chaotic and turbulent situation is destined to cause twists and turns in their relationship... Many years later, Nalan Ying seized power in his own country and became emperor. At the same time, he conquered the country and avenged his humiliation. However, due to lack of discipline, his soldiers massacred and abused the people of Dingguo indiscriminately. Even the princess's sister-in-law was humiliated to death. This kind of shocking cruelty is no different from the treacherous and evil deeds of Emperor Dingguoxiang back then. Nalan Ying's previous promise to the princess - "I will calm the world with gentleness and live up to your wishes." Also disappeared. As a result, the princess had a deep estrangement from him, but Nalan Ying didn't know it from beginning to end. At this time, Shen State and Jun State were competing for hegemony. The final battle for hegemony was the decisive battle on a snowy night, which was essentially a fight for the princess between the emperor and the general. At the time of the decisive battle, the princess, who had just given birth, rode her horse to the battlefield. She knew that this unnecessary war was for herself, so she would rather sacrifice herself in exchange for a truce, even if it was only for temporary peace. "I would like to exchange my life for peace." When she was in a dilemma, she held on to her love, hate, affection, and hatred for the world, and finally committed suicide. Where the blood spattered, the white snow reflected red. In front of him is his former lover, the father of his child, and the emperor of the most powerful country today. Behind him is the person who admires him, the person who taught him his skills, and the brave and straightforward general. "This is why she doesn't love you anymore." Were General He Tingyun's last words to Nalan Ying. Then the two countries ceased fighting for a long time. It was not until the prime of life of Jun Yuanzhao and Nalan Ying's son that they unified the countries and the world was truly unified and settled. For the rest of her life after losing her lover, Nalan Ying never took a concubine and raised her children alone. He also did not pursue his lover, because he knew that as long as his lover was truly married, it would never be possible. Jun Yuanzhao loved fraternity all his life, yearned for peace, and died resolutely between love, hate and his true heart. However, Nalan Ying's great fame could not buy her long-lasting love, and she died with endless longing. Note: 1. Historical fiction, troubled times.
