Splendid Peace

A Ruthless Warlord x A Gentle Noblewoman | Reborn The day Xiao Xiyue was sentenced to death by her husband, heavy snow was falling. She married him when he was still a nobody, accompanying him from a down-and-out prince to the ruler of all under heaven, yet she could never enter his heart. She could only ever be a substitute. His moonlight was Xiao Huayan, the legitimate daughter of the Chancellor's household, not a lowly concubine-born girl like her. Her legs were broken and her heart was cut out. She died on the day Xiao Huayan was crowned empress. Wrapped in a rush mat, her body was hastily thrown into the river. The bone hairpin she kept close to her was a gift from the man she had detested most in her life. He had told her to carry it with her. He always said he loved her and would even rebel to possess her. He had nearly forced himself on her, too. She hated him to the core. Only because he was so clingy. But looking back in that moment, it seemed he was the only one in her life who had chosen her without hesitation. And she had sent him to his grave with her own hands. The warlord of a troubled age, Prince of Pingjin, Qin Yu. - He had loved her all his life, but no matter how hard he tried, she still didn't like him. She even hated him. Qin Yu thought, then I'll give her another life as compensation. Using his own flesh and blood as the medium, he brought her back reborn... - As if waking from a long dream, Xiao Xiyue opened her eyes. Spring sunlight filled the world, and she was lying in her own little room. Outside, beneath a magnolia tree, a young royal named Qin Yu stood tall and straight. He turned to see her, first startled, then smiling with his pearly teeth showing. "Lady Xiao, you're awake?" Xiao Xiyue froze. Memories of her previous life surged through her mind, and she clutched the bone hairpin even tighter. That was his bone. Theme: Cherish the person before you
