Don't Betray Those Years

This is Wei Xiang's first story. I started writing it full of enthusiasm, only to discover that I really am hopeless at writing blurbs! Aaaaaah!!!

Love came about in what seemed the most natural way. My identity is special, my position is special, so you became the wife I had to have.

You don't say much, you don't like to smile, and you're always cold toward me. But I still can't help sinking deeper and deeper into my obsession with being by your side day and night.

I don't know what you think. Guessing is exhausting, but I still carefully search for the tiniest clues that you might love me.

The nation, the realm.

In these troubled times, war rages and hidden arrows fly from every direction.

Some want me to stay alive, others want me to avenge them.

Some want me dead, others want me to live.

All I want is to be with you.

(Well, I nearly died writing that bit of blurb... Why is writing a blurb more exhausting than writing the story? Aaaaaah!!! Ahem, I know it's a bit melodramatic, so please bear with me~ Hugs~)

In short, this story is about a young prince who was raised as a girl and disguises himself as a lecher to stay alive in the imperial palace. Swept into conflicts between various factions, he journeys through the chaos of war with his beloved young princess consort, aided by a host of allies.

Everyone is welcome to offer Wei Xiang criticism, advice, and encouragement. I bow to you all. Thank you!

This story will go premium on Friday the 26th. I'll post three chapters that day. If you haven't read it yet, hurry and take a look! Because the story is so long, earlier chapters will be locked. Thank you for your support. Wei Xiang will keep writing just as diligently as ever! Hugs for everyone! Oh, and since this story is so long, my editor has already been very lenient. But I didn't apply for a leaderboard spot earlier, so a lot of chapters will be locked. Starting from Chapter 41, please don't buy them if you've already read them. The new chapters begin at Chapter 72. Thank you!

P.S. Wei Xiang has started a new story, "When the East Wind of Old Blows into My Dream." It's a transmigration story with an ancient-style, plot-driven narrative. I've got a steady backlog and a regular update schedule, and I swear I'll get my act together this time! Aaaaaah, please believe me!

Here's the blurb for the new story:

[The doomed, doglike, nonstop-chattering cannon-fodder top] vs. [The brilliant, stubborn young lady bottom]

Gu Zizhan: Good grief! I never imagined I'd transmigrate just from watching a bride-throwing-ball matchmaking ceremony. If I ever stop to watch a commotion again, I'm a dog!!!

Chu Lan: This little idiot isn't worth a second glance! Marrying her is just the cruel hand of fate. (Clutches her chest and sighs...)

Later

Gu Zizhan: A spectacle is the mother of a happy marriage! Watching them is wonderful, watching them is marvelous! Woof woof woof~

Chu Lan: This little idiot is so cute. Woof? Bah, I love it when I eat my words!

One is a hapless heir destined to be cannon fodder, from the household of a scheming prince. The other is a female physician, equally skilled in literature and martial arts, from a family of loyal, virtuous officials. Fate binds them together, and they lean on and support each other as they fight their way through the chaos of war.

Happy ending!!! Daily updates!!! I'll say it three times because it's important!!!

After the leads get together, sweet moments will pop up from time to time.

Here's the serious blurb:

[Seems free of desire, but bound by an overwhelming sense of duty, bottom] vs. [Warmhearted, sunny top striving to be a true gentleman]

Once I fell beyond a thousand mountains; now the east wind of old blows into my dreams.

Gu Zizhan never imagined she'd be hit by a bride's ball and transmigrate, only to become the chosen one of destiny. Of course, it would have been better if this chosen one hadn't been a pawn coveted and manipulated by others, doomed to be cannon fodder.

So, now that things have come to this, what is a doomed chosen one to do? Gu Zizhan wracks her brain to find allies and plan an escape route.

First, she has to get Chu Lan to marry her!

But she never expected that the marriage already written in the stars would conceal a struggle between all sorts of factions!

The writing style is restrained, and the plot takes its time warming up (the author says this with a serious face). There is an investigation, and the lead disguises herself as a man early on (the author isn't sure when she'll take off those clothes, either). There is also plenty about destiny and karma (insert doge expression here).

P.S. Top and bottom only refer to their clothing. In every other way, of course they're switches!!! After all, it depends on who's got the skills~
