Cool and devoted immortal x defiant crown princess
The day the Matchmaking Envoy Wen Yi descended to the mortal realm, she figured this assignment wouldn't be too difficult.
The Book of Fates was quite clear: Xiao Chengzhao, crown princess of the Great Yan dynasty, and Xie Linzhou, the young son of the Marquis of Wuding, were destined to be together.
The mortals had already made things easy for her. The emperor intended to arrange the marriage, the marquis's household had no objections, and the Ministry of Rites had even delivered the wedding ceremony plans to the Eastern Palace.
There was only one problem: Xiao Chengzhao refused.
When Wen Yi first brought her the wedding plans, the crown princess was reading military reports from the northern frontier. She glanced at just two pages before pushing the booklet back into Wen Yi's hands.
"Take it out and burn it."
Wen Yi had tied many people's fates together, but this was the first time she'd met someone who refused to acknowledge even her own match.
Then war broke out in the north, and Xiao Chengzhao was ordered to lead the campaign. As the official in charge of her marriage, Wen Yi had no choice but to go along.
On the journey, she made little progress on the wedding, but she organized plenty of military reports. When Xiao Chengzhao was wounded, she watched over her while her dressings were changed. When the princess personally inspected the outposts, Wen Yi rode after her on a stubborn horse to keep her company.
Wen Yi gradually realized that she hadn't thought about Xie Linzhou in quite some time.
Then, after a snowy night, she looked down and saw a red thread around her wrist.
The other end was attached to Xiao Chengzhao.
Only then did Wen Yi realize that the match she had come to arrange was not someone else's. It was her own trial of love.
But an official who tied the threads of fate could not have a red thread of her own.
After a lifetime of joining others together, she would have to cut the one thread that belonged to her with her own hands.
Many years later, Xiao Chengzhao ascended the throne. She never married, and only posthumously named a woman who had died long ago on the battlefield as her empress.
The history books recorded only her name: Wen Yi.
They did not record that twelve years later, when the empress fell gravely ill, the friend who had supposedly died once again stood before her.
Xiao Chengzhao gazed at her for a long time.
"Wen Yi, I knew you couldn't bear to leave me."
Theme: Even if two people cannot spend their whole lives together, a choice made with a sincere heart can still lead to a happy ending of their own.

Hooray for the ending! Reading it left me with a sense of unease and a feeling of injustice for the Crown Princess, but I'm just a reader, not a character in the story. Only the readers can truly understand their own feelings; I can only offer my opinion. Thank you for your hard work, Tanlang!
But putting myself in the Crown Princess's shoes feels unfair. It's like your first love unilaterally cuts off contact and disappears for the sake of her future, even faking her death. You can't forget her, leading to your untimely demise. Then, before you die, she secretly comes back to see you but refuses to acknowledge you.
This is a great place to put double take
I just saw the teacher's reply, and it's true that what I said seemed a bit frivolous on both sides. Neither the inviolable celestial rules nor the power struggles and checks and balances of the mortal realm were adequately depicted. To commit such a grave offense as large-scale interference in a human war, a mere twelve-year imprisonment, without even stripping them of their status as heirs…
It's alright. We weren't here to find a partner, but to learn how to be human. From what I've seen so far, this assessment seems less about overcoming emotional barriers and more about understanding human nature. But what distinguishes humans from other creatures is their seven emotions and six desires; emotional barriers aren't limited to romantic love.
I think I prefer the premise of this story, haha. I hope there will be more amazing moments in the plot.
I just finished watching "The Matchmaker," it was a seamless transition, he's amazing!
So, your Marriage Bureau is quite humane towards people, but a bit strict with its employees, huh?
? You wouldn't say Cao Cao is Cao Cao, but the Crown Princess is, right? 🍉 Is this life about raising a child? I was thinking Wen Yi couldn't do that, but then I thought better of it and decided not to know, after all, large-scale following of fates is crazy ().
They didn't release them back then either. What if there's no afterlife or they can't be found? (Pointing and gesturing. Jpg) Is it that the Crown Princess has no afterlife, or is it that you don't want to hurt her again and would rather never see her again?
