This is a game played by the gods, with reincarnation as its board, the Five Continents as its lines, the Seven Seas as its grid, and the Three Kingdoms as its pieces. The players themselves are also caught up in the game.
The night air was cool. A child leaned against his grandfather's knee and pointed to the river of stars in the southern sky. "Grandpa, look. There's a river in the sky."
The old man smiled. "That's the River of the Moon. Long ago, a moon hung there. It wasn't as bright as the sun, but it waxed and waned, gentle and peaceful, with a charm all its own."
The child asked, "Where did the moon go?"
"It's still there. For the girl he loved, he shattered into a winding river of stars. Look at that curve of stars. Doesn't it look like the girl's smiling eyes?"
Even if I live surrounded by lies, with you, what is there to fear?

Also known as "The Princess Consort Is Devoted to Preserving Culture" and "Did the Prince Pretend to Be a Fool Today?"
Shen Shuyun is an accomplished illustrator. After dying from staying up all night, she transmigrates into the body of a concubine-born daughter of the prime minister and marries Gu Xihe, a foolish prince who lost his wits after an injury.
Though the prince is a fool, the Prince Rui's household is wealthy and influential. Shen Shuyun gets to spend her days studying, drinking, and chatting with cultural luminaries, living a carefree life.
Passionate about preserving culture, she vows to leave precious historical records for future scholars. Without realizing it, she helps advance the cultural life of the Great Zhou Dynasty and enriches the spiritual and cultural lives of ordinary people.
She is a detached observer of history, but Prince Rui is like a little sun, melting her cold, long-sealed heart.
The famed Prince Rui, a war god who once shook the world, is poisoned by accident and loses his mind. A miracle-working physician manages to save his life, but his injuries are severe. He continues pretending to be a fool to conceal his identity, only for his father, the emperor, to hastily arrange his marriage to Shen Shuyun, a concubine-born daughter of the prime minister.
After being bitten by a snake once, he sees everyone as a villain. But after testing her again and again, he gives her his heart.
As he watches his princess consort make more and more friends, Prince Rui grows so jealous that he can't take it anymore. Risking exposure, he puts on a secret identity to get close to her, begging for her attention and affection. Thus begins his long road to winning his wife back.
One lie takes countless more lies to cover up. Prince Rui teeters between being lucid and pretending to be a fool, suffering all the while. Things gradually slip out of his control and head in an unbelievable direction...
One day, out of control and still in disguise, he passionately confesses and demands of his princess consort, "You have to choose one: me or Prince Rui!"
The princess consort walks away. The next day, she sends him a comic titled "The War God's Past." On its title page is the author's dedication: "The image of a hero in my heart comes entirely from him. The War God of Great Zhou deserves to be known throughout the world."
Gu Xihe goes frantic when he gets the comic: It seems like she rejected me, but not entirely?
Only belatedly does Shen Shuyun realize that her foolish husband, whom she'd been raising like a big cat, seems to have changed.

This episode is so sweet, woo woo, it still has that heavy feeling that spans time and space after a long absence, woo woo. I like this chapter so much. The water in the Jinjiang pool is a thousand feet deep, and it's not big enough to crush your love~
It is night in Changxu, and there is a dream in Changxu. At this point, the curtain has come to an end. All love, hate, and resentment have ended here. The people left behind are still going on, and the people who have passed away have been lost. Chirp~~~~~bang! One hit the author's backstage!
Congratulations on the ending, but the ending of this article is sad
It turns out that all their life's hardships are just a glass bead in the hands of others. Oh my god, it's so miserable.
A group of young men and young ladies from rich families enjoy the love and hate in the world, but they have to join in the greedy struggle of their fathers. After experiencing life and death, the young boys took over the mantles of their predecessors and became their own kings. Facing the end of the world, people in the world have no time to grieve and lose, and instinctively look for ways to survive, especially those saints who have compassion for the common people and work tirelessly to guess a way to salvation from the clues of history. However, saints are always human beings, and even demigods and gods have a destiny that cannot be changed. Everything they are looking for is in vain caused by the unknown power of holding the chess pieces. In the world of destruction, the realm of reincarnation is filled with the helplessness of gods and the powerlessness of mortals. Everything returns to dust, and dust returns to dust, just like the universe was born from an explosion, then shrank sharply and finally died. Just like a ballad of destruction sung by a transcendent "person".
Ah, it's so sad to see you again after so long.
The plot is good. Blow it up!!
