A Beauty That Captivates the World: Wen Ruyan

Plain robes. I don't want this imperial robe or these thirty thousand miles of land. For the rest of my life, I only want to worry about you. We met when I came of age, stood by each other in our twenties, and faced life and death together in our seventies. I'll trade half your life of earthly splendor for a lifetime of my own bewilderment. If you never leave me, then I will... stay by your side, in life and death. A lifetime together, bound by a love that could move the world. Which pair of eyes will open amid the long passage of time, gentle and warm as your words? This is fanfiction by Huli for Bottle of Wine, Moment of Fireworks, a side story about an old emperor and his longtime courtier in the State of Zhao during the Warring States period. It was written on a whim, so please point out any bugs. Theme:
