Blurb: [The hero's wife-winning redemption arc / He'll be reduced to ashes]
In the second year of the Zhenyuan era, the deposed empress Jiang Chenyu was burned to death in the Cold Palace. In life, she had suffered hunger, cold, and endless torment.
In her youth, she had been born to privilege. Her father was a hereditary marquis, her mother a Grand Princess, and she was so beautiful she could topple kingdoms. She was the undisputed choice for Crown Princess.
Unfortunately, she loved the wrong man and chose Fu Yanzhi, Prince of Yongjia, whose birth mother was unknown and who was not favored.
No one could have imagined that the seemingly gentle, scholarly Prince of Yongjia possessed such a dark, calculating mind and such ruthless methods. With the Jiang family's support, he climbed step by step to the throne.
People praised Chenyu for having such good judgment.
But only Chenyu knew that ten years of painstaking effort and wholehearted support had earned her his respect, but not his love.
She loved him, so she told herself he was simply cold by nature and silently endured every grievance.
*
But once he had secured his throne, he deposed her as empress and brought his white moonlight into the palace to become his new empress.
Only then did Chenyu realize that he did understand love. He just didn't love her.
She met his frigid gaze and finally laughed bitterly.
It turned out that ten years of devotion and careful scheming from the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family had merely paved the way for someone else.
That night, the Jiaofang Palace went up in flames, consuming all her resentment and hatred.
*
After a deep sleep, Chenyu returned to ten years earlier.
In the main hall, the emperor smiled and asked her, “Have you made up your mind, Chenyu?”
Chenyu's gaze swept contemptuously over Fu Yanzhi's face and moved on without a moment's hesitation.
She raised her hand and pointed to the man beside Fu Yanzhi, who had just been punished and looked as grim as a wolf. “I want to marry him.”
[Bonus scene]
The Shangyuan Lantern Festival was the day Chenyu announced their engagement in front of everyone.
Fu Yanzhi didn't care. It was just a chance to do everything over. She would still marry him without hesitation, and ten years later he would still ascend to the throne. Only this time, he wouldn't lose her.
Until Chenyu spoke the name of the man beside him, and he suddenly realized she was no longer the girl whose heart and eyes held only him.
He called out to her with a trembling voice. “Chenyu?”
The man beside her frowned slightly and discreetly blocked his view. Possessiveness filled his eyes as he said, “Little brother, take a closer look. This is your imperial sister-in-law.”
#No one knows how long he has waited for her. This time, he will never let her go again#

Blurb for The Brocade Guard Claims His Bride:
After a sudden calamity leaves her parents dead, Lingge heads alone to the capital to seek refuge with her maternal grandparents.
But not long after leaving the city, she nearly gets abducted by bandits.
Luckily, a chivalrous man comes to her aid, and she escapes unharmed.
With a long journey ahead and wanting to reach the capital safely, Lingge finds herself a powerful protector and persuades him to take her back to the city.
Once they arrive, she makes a quick getaway to her maternal grandparents' home before her identity can be exposed.
[The hero's version]
Lu Tingzhi, Commander of the Brocade Guard, is sinister and ruthless, a living demon king feared by everyone in the capital.
When he hears that something has happened to his maternal aunt's family, his grandfather orders him to fetch the young cousin he's never met. But he fails to find his cousin and ends up falling into a woman's trap instead.
She was alluring and delicate, and one glance was all it took for her to capture his heart.
She said, “This concubine will belong to you for the rest of her life, my lord.”
His heart softened. He planned to take her to meet his parents as soon as they arrived in the capital, then marry her.
But she had used a trick to escape.
It didn't matter. There was no one in this world he couldn't find.
[Bonus scene]
Not long after Lingge moved into her maternal grandparents' home, the cousin she'd never met returned.
Her aunt held her hand and advised her, “Your cousin may not smile much, but he's the one who cares about you most. There's no need to be afraid.”
Lingge nodded, but froze the moment she stepped inside.
“Lingge, say hello.”
Her aunt assumed she was frightened and teased him, “Tingzhi, look how scared you've made Lingge!”
Lu Tingzhi walked over, his unfathomable eyes reflecting her face. “Cousin, it's been a long time.”
Reader's guide:
1. A timid little rabbit and great beauty heroine × a scheming, unhinged hero, one-on-one romance.
2. Sweet romance, with coercion and enticement.
Theme: Love is the warmest thing in the world. I hope everyone cherishes the person by their side
Gee, two pairs of bitchy men and women are really weird. Mr. He and Mrs. Wang actually did not avoid people. When they were together, the royal family's face was trampled under their feet. It is said that the two concubines are dirty and rotten. The entire palace was in a smoky atmosphere, and death was a relief for Chen Yu.
After reading the whole article, I feel that the most puzzling thing is Zhou Si. She keeps saying that she loves Fu Hengzhi, but then she wants to be the queen and cling to power. It may be said that she only seeks a high position, and she is also sad because of Fu Yan's cold treatment. Seeing that Fu Hengzhi was not interested in her, she immediately turned around and hooked up with Fu Yanzhi, while still thinking about Fu Hengzhi. I felt that in the end, Thursday's feelings for the female protagonist were more intense than those for the male protagonist and his co-star, which gave me the illusion of hatred arising out of love. I am reminded of Faye Wong and Zhou Xun's jokes on the Internet. Love, hate, and hatred are all between the two of them, and men are just tools in their love, hatred, and hatred.
She was released because of the mercy of the male protagonist for what she had done before. For her grandfather's sake, she was lucky, but it was outrageous that she could still enter the palace. Last time, it could be said that it was to apologize. She should be allowed to stay in seclusion to think about her past. After all, she was married to a sinner. Today's banquet must be attended by the bride, but this kind of sinner will only spoil the fun.
Is there something wrong with your brain =_= For so many years, you stayed away from the wedding night, stayed with other women, quarreled every time we met, humiliated others... And you still want others to look at you?!?!
Why does He Lanzhi have feelings for Chen Yu? Let's write a side story
Um, how come a sinner who was pardoned on Monday could casually enter the place where the emperor approves memorials... She loves the male protagonist so much, and what's the situation with Fu Yan? She feels that Fu Yan has only one true love in his life and has made her mess around...
Don't marry someone with low status and low self-esteem. Look at this emperor who harms others and himself. He has been awkward all his life just to make his wife care about him. If he were to be more confident, he would have three or four children.
Why do we have to give her so many scenes in the extras? . . So annoying
I don't think Zhou Si should still be alive this week
Wei Xiyue is as stupid and arrogant as ever. It seems that Wei Sheng will die in battle, but Wei Xiyue will not rest until the Wei family is dead. Zhou Si is still making trouble, so Tai Chuan cannot escape the blame, and her death is not a pity.
