Blurb: Zhao Zhao was born breathtakingly beautiful, with a beauty so dazzling that people called her a little fox spirit from the time she was young. She caused such unrest throughout the Zhou household that they sent her away early to help secure the family's business.
Wei Linchu was proud and noble, the Crown Prince of Great Wei.
The first time he saw her, she was in tears, having just been sent to the estate of a man old enough to be her father.
From afar, beneath the gauzy curtains of a pavilion, Wei Linchu watched the delicate little girl and slowly narrowed his eyes. He lifted his wrist and drained his cup of wine.
When she woke the next day, the tearful Zhao Zhao discovered that she was somewhere else...

Coming soon: The Beloved Consort Is Utterly Alluring
Zhen Zhen was the cherished jewel of the Duke of Jing. A translucent, lovely little beauty from childhood, she was renowned as the most beautiful woman in the capital. She had grown up surrounded by endless affection, but the change of dynasties dealt her a cruel blow.
The emperor was incompetent and immoral, and someone usurped his throne. After the new emperor ascended, he placed his trust in others, and the Duke of Jing's family, who had served the former emperor faithfully, were the first to be targeted. The duke fell seriously ill in a distant land, compounding the family's troubles.
But that wasn't even the worst part. The usurping emperor was none other than a former servant in her household, and little Zhen Zhen had bullied him more than once.
Everyone said that Ying Yu was ruthless and vengeful, and that anyone who offended him was as good as dead.
So someone offered him little Zhen Zhen, the apple of the duke's eye and a girl who had spent years opposing him, for his amusement.
But as they amused themselves...
One day, someone reported, "Your Majesty, the Duke of Jing has recovered and will return to the capital soon. The old man is stubborn. Should we make an example of him?"
The sweet little person in the man's arms jolted at the news, tears welling in her eyes as she clutched his clothes and held him even tighter.
Ying Yu lowered his eyes and glanced at her, then smiled. "Her father may be a bit rigid, but his daughter is quite lovable. Never mind. I'll restore his post first and make her happy, then we'll see..."
Little scene:
Ying Yu had been troubled lately, often lying awake at night, unable to solve one question: "That little fox spirit lies all the time. She says she's loved me since she was six, but I clearly remember that when she was six, she nearly had someone break my fingers. Should I believe her, believe her, or believe her?"
Content notes:
1. Both leads are each other's first and only, one-on-one romance, happy ending.
2. Three lifetimes. Everything serves the sweet, satisfying romance.
3. The main story takes place in the third life. It isn't sweet from the start; it takes time to develop. Please keep this in mind before reading.

I bought it and found out that the finale is still about a scumbag. I was so angry. I thought it was a sideshow about Zhaozhao. It was a forced whitewash and disgusting. A dirty man is a dirty man and a scumbag is a scumbag. He might as well be cut off and become an eunuch. This shit makes people feel sick.
The more I watch it, the more uncomfortable it becomes. It's anticlimactic, putting the cart before the horse, and it's not sweet. I don't recommend it.
It was hard to calm down after reading this episode. I could still accept it at the beginning of rebirth. But when I took them back after rebirth, Gu Zha had always had a relationship with Na Du. It was no longer clean and it was not worth taking the place of his sister. (It's understandable to use women for power, but Suidu is not doing it for power.)
Oh my God, this line about sister and husband is so disgusting. Gu Wenxuan is so disgusting, so disgusting. It would be better if he was a scumbag. Talking about love while sleeping with another woman is so disgusting.
Lan Lan and Gu Wenxuan are just normal. You didn't hold anything accountable in the past. After you picked up Lan Lan's mother and brother, you slept with that woman and said you loved Lan Lan. You were really convinced. The problem wasn't just once but countless times. Even after you were kicked out of the house, you still got together with that woman! Talking about loving Lanlan doesn't stop him from sleeping with others. It's better to be with him directly. He didn't care about it when he went on his own for a few years and found someone after the divorce. The problem is that it's disgusting if you have Lanlan by your side and still sleep with other women!!
Harmful, I would rather Gu Wenxuan was a playboy who wandered around the flowers and kept his integrity after meeting his sister. It would be like being both responsible and established here, having both wants and needs.
Gu Wenxuan is not worthy of his sister. Since he felt that he did not love his sister at the time, why did he take her back and take her back just to torture her? After all, he is a hypocritical man. While having a passionate fight with his concubine, he pretends to be gentle and plays the role of a good husband. He is really a hypocritical white lotus and disgusting. Stay away from my sister. It took eight lifetimes for my sister to meet a scum like Gu Wenxuan. To take care of his mother and brother for him and get this kind of reward is really not worth it for my sister. It also delayed our sister's search for a second love. I hope Gu Wenxuan will not meet her sister again. She really deserves better, not like Gu Wenxuan.
The author figured it out! The heroine is Zhao Zhao, not Mulan! Why did you write so much Mulan in the end?
I am so disgusted by this brother-in-law
This is the second ancient novel that I love after the author The Concubine of the East Palace (PS: I have only read three books?) I love the male and female protagonists of The Concubine of the East Palace very much. I also love the male and female protagonists of this book, but both books left me with some regrets. What made me sad about the Concubine of the East Palace was that the ending of the sister and brother-in-law was so regrettable, and there was no rebirth extra. I felt sad for them for a long time? What I regret about this book is Jade Bone Heavenly Fragrance. There are really too few sweet plots between the male and female protagonists, especially in the extra episodes, which are not introduced. The third experience is painful. There should be more stories about their sweet daily life and daily interactions with the baby. There is no introduction?
