The fourth year after Zhou Yun's death, the Zhou family was wiped out, and his younger brother, Zhou Fei, was imprisoned.
Everyone who had once been close to the Zhou family treated Zhou Fei like a plague, afraid to go anywhere near him.
Only Yu Zheng traveled all the way from Liangzhou to Shengjing, petitioned the Emperor for a pardon, and brought the dying Zhou Fei out of the death cell.
The once high-spirited young general had been tortured until he was covered in wounds, with no will left to live.
Yu Zheng fought for justice for him and searched everywhere for renowned doctors. She gently took his hand and led him step by step out of his despair, then spent seven whole years helping him rise again.
Everyone said Yu Zheng loved Zhou Fei, loved him to the bone.
But Zhou Fei always remembered how she had stared blankly, clutching the cold body of his elder brother, refusing to let go no matter who tried to persuade her.
Everything kind she did for him was because he looked so much like his late elder brother.
But... so what?
If she loved his elder brother's gentle refinement, then he would set aside his own nature and spend his whole life imitating his brother's every move.
My next novel is titled After I Got Involved with a Paranoid Opera Singer. Please add it to your to-read list!
Ling Yue loved an opera singer when she was young, and the whole city knew it.
Unconcerned by their difference in status, she spent lavishly on him, washed her hands to cook for him, and chased after him with wild enthusiasm for five whole years.
Unfortunately, he was cold-hearted. No matter how she pursued him, he remained distant and aloof, never wavering in the slightest over those five years.
Eventually, Ling Yue married someone else, and the opera singer disappeared without a trace.
Ling Yue saw him again seven years later.
The opera singer of old had become a powerful regent, while Ling Yue had become a disgraced prisoner.
Ling Yue was now pregnant, and her husband had been framed for treason. He was to be beheaded before long.
In a dark, damp dungeon, the regent gently held Ling Yue and asked in a hoarse voice, "Marry me, and I'll let him go. How about it?"
Theme: Those who gather firewood for everyone must not be left to freeze in the snow.
To be honest, the description of what happened to the second sister makes me feel physically uncomfortable. It's really, really uncomfortable to write about an innocent girl's experience of being violated in such a long way. And I scrolled back a bit, and I saw that this man didn't suffer much, and the description of the consequences was "death." It's really an advantage for him that he didn't suffer at all [holding his chin] Still don't understand why this part should be written in so much detail to irritate the male protagonist? Anyway, it must have resonated with readers
Rubbish!!! Can the male protagonist let the emperor go??? The hypocritical and vicious Zheng family and their gang members deserve to die!!! The hypocritical emperor and empress are no better!!!
The hypocritical emperor and queen are so hypocritical. The Zhou family is so miserable and the Tutor is so miserable.
欸不对不对[躺平]我屯了一些没看 一看番外咋这样了不对不对我回头去看看前面的
Congratulations on joining V~Looking forward to updates! Faster, faster, more, Modo Modo
The majority of each chapter is filled with memories. There is no emotional line between the male and female protagonists, and there is basically no interaction.
There is so little interaction between the male and female protagonists
In the next chapter, the male and female protagonists should interact more. Woohoo.
Waiting for the update, the capitalization is very good
Come on, it's very beautiful
