[Pure sweetness]
Prince of Yan Gu Changheng was decisive and ruthless, quick and efficient. He had never once shown mercy.
He achieved remarkable things throughout his life and never lost a battle. His one regret was that Liang Xi, the white moonlight in his heart, jumped from the city wall right before his eyes.
*The heroine:
The sight of Prince of Yan Gu Changheng's army at the gates and the fall of Qi's capital played out three times in Liang Xi's life.
In her first life, she stood atop the city wall and leaped to her death, sacrificing herself for her country.
In her second life, she returned to the day her country fell. This time, she chose to give herself to him. She sowed chaos in his harem and spent half her life tormenting him. In the end, she took her own life with a three-foot length of white silk.
Only after she died, when she saw him keeping vigil in her bedchamber day after day, alone beneath a fading lamp, did she feel regret.
Then she returned for a third time. He cautiously offered her the imperial decree making her empress.
"A Xi, will you marry me?"
"If you don't want to, I'll send someone to take you away. From now on, we'll live separate lives and never... never meet again."
Liang Xi looked at the violent ruler whom everyone feared. After a long silence, she finally answered in a hoarse voice:
"What if I say yes?"
The man froze. "What?"
"If I say yes, will you let go of the past?"
He had been through countless trials, great and small, but at that moment, for once, he grew nervous in front of a young woman.
She said nothing more. She simply stood up and climbed straight into his arms, then called softly, full of tenderness, "Husband..."
After two more chances at life and years apart, they'd been separated for far too long. They would spend the rest of their lives making up for it.
