Unable to defy the imperial decree, Xue Miao had resolved to wait for the prince to die and become the freest widow in Baojing. But the instant she saw her new husband on their wedding night Xue Miao: What widow? Whoever wants the job can have it! * At first, Chu Xuan remained unmoved by the love letter Xue Miao had painstakingly written, and made her practice calligraphy for an hour. Later, when Xue Miao wrote to the young man next door about something, Chu Xuan saw the elegant letter, addressed in beautiful flower-style small script to "Dear Elder Brother Meng," and grew so jealous he could have drunk a whole vat of vinegar.

Visit my author page to see it For a few taels of silver, Azao was sold by her stepmother into the household of Marquis Wu'an, the most powerful eunuch in Great Wei, where she became the lowest-ranking maid. Just a few days after entering the household, Azao was assigned to serve Chu Ge, the marquis's only master, as his personal maid. Everyone in the household said the marquis had taken a liking to her looks and planned to make her his concubine. The marquis was vicious and cruel, with a fearsome reputation. Azao was so terrified of losing her life that she didn't dare resist. But the marquis not only refrained from taking her against her will, even when Azao accidentally made a mistake, he merely smiled and called her "a silly little date." Azao thought the marquis was a good man and that everyone outside must have misunderstood him. She would be sure to know her place and serve him with all her heart. Later, after Azao had saved enough money to buy her freedom, she packed her things and prepared to return to her hometown and find herself an honest, dependable husband. But she didn't even make it out the gates of the marquis's residence. The marquis, who had always seemed "gentle and easygoing" to her, changed his expression in front of her for the first time. Gripping her waist, he forbade her to leave. "I'm right here. Who do you think you're going to marry?" Everyone thought Azao was just lucky to have won Chu Ge's favor. Only Chu Ge knew that in his previous life, when everyone had turned against him and he had fallen into the mire, she had cried as she rescued him from a pile of beggars, and even lost her life for his sake.
