[Complete]
Shu Mingyue was born into a family of high rank and privilege. From childhood, everyone doted on her, and she was made a princess in defiance of the rules.
But when the new emperor ascended the throne and reorganized the court, he took a dislike to her and sent her in Du Lanxin's place to marry far away on the steppe.
She didn't want to marry for peace. She didn't want to marry Ashina Yuluo. She didn't love him. But in the end, the princess bowed her head and entered the barbarian tents.
For three years, they loved each other, and he gave her the utmost affection and pleasure.
But in the fifth year of Jianyuan, war ravaged Yong and Liang. Shu Mingyue avenged her brother by stabbing the Northern Di general with her sword.
At the same time, the war between the two countries severely disrupted the northwest trade routes.
He cast her aside. With no Ningxiang pills left to take, she fell gravely ill. As she wasted away, her withered fingers instinctively rested on her still-flat belly, and she thought that perhaps this was for the best...
It was a dead end, with no one able to change the outcome. Life was so difficult. What was the point?
[The Hero's Version]
He was ruthless, cold, and renowned. He wielded blood as a blade, killing everyone who betrayed him.
He could answer to Heaven above and his people below.
But in the end... why wasn't he happy?
Looking back on his life, Ashina Yuluo suddenly understood. There was one wish he had yet to fulfill.
That year, he returned from the Western Regions with medicine. The gauze curtains fluttered beside the bed, and she lay there quietly, as if she were only asleep.
#Even heroes fall before beauty#
#I want both my wife and my empire#
#Though the one I love is divided from me by mountains and rivers, they can still be crossed#
P.S.:
The heroine is a pampered, spoiled darling.
The hero is not fully reborn. I get jealous of myself. He'll return to normal later.
The tragedy of their previous life was caused by their circumstances and differing positions, which will be explained in the story.
After being reborn, everything starts over, and the story will be given a proper ending.
The previous life is sweet and angsty. This life is sweet, sweet, sweet.
Set in a fictional era of war and chaos, with open-minded customs and a jumble of historical elements. Don't scrutinize the history too closely~
Please add my upcoming story, The Cousin in the Storybook, to your reading list.
Qing Lanyin's father is the governor of Yangzhou, her mother is a grand princess, and the emperor in the palace is her cousin. The Crown Prince has to call her Auntie. She was named Princess Anle at birth and has a status of unrivaled privilege.
When she was eight, she went north to the Duke of Qi's estate in Yanjing at her aunt's invitation. Before Qing Lanyin could even enjoy herself, she had a strange, vivid nightmare.
In the dream, she was the villainess in a storybook. From the day she entered the estate, she was always picking fights with the duke's second son, Mu Chi.
Mu Chi was the Crown Prince's study companion and trusted aide. Once the Crown Prince ascended the throne, Mu Chi would hold the highest office and wield overwhelming power. He was cold, scheming, and dark-hearted beneath his handsome exterior. Anyone who provoked him met a terrible end.
In the book, Qing Lanyin, the wicked little cousin who had offended him, would be torn apart and dumped in the wilderness, wrapped in a straw mat. Her parents would suffer for her too: her father would be stripped of his title and position, and her mother banished beyond the frontier.
The only problem was, she had this dream too late. She had just gotten into a fight with Mu Chi and pushed him into the water.
Qing Lanyin: ...Stunned (⊙o⊙)
When she was eight, Qing Lanyin secretly slipped a piece of candy into Mu Chi's hand and coaxed him not to be angry.
The little girl had two tiny buns in her hair and soft, fair cheeks. She looked just like a snowball.
Mu Chi's expression was cold, but in the end he couldn't resist reaching out to hug her. He held on to her for eight years.
When she was sixteen, Qing Lanyin was famous throughout Chang'an, and everyone in and out of the palace was busy choosing a husband for her.
After much comparison, everyone settled on a young scholar who had come to the capital to sit the imperial examination. One spring day, as the flowers bloomed, Qing Lanyin shyly gave him a purse she had embroidered herself.
Mu Chi returned from work with a square rice cake in his arms, bought for her. Standing behind a rockery, he watched it all without a change in expression.
#You coaxed me, deceived me, and dumped me. Who gave you the nerve?#
P.S.:
A feel-good story / pseudo-siblings / childhood sweethearts / possessive love
The hero is a true villain, the ruthless and vicious kind. Shameless, a bastard, and guilty as sin.
The leads are two years apart.
Theme: Keep sunshine in your heart, and you'll find the sun everywhere.
The extras feel a bit confusing. There is a life where the heroine gave birth to An An and was abducted, and there is a life where the heroine was raped by the second male protagonist. Plus the two lives in the main story, there are too many worlds, which makes it a bit confusing. In fact, I would rather read the extra story about raising steamed buns and cookies in this life after marriage.
Why is the extra ending like this again? The male and female protagonists are always awkward in front of each other, and then they talk to each other for a few words. The second male protagonist always wakes up from a dream for no reason. There is a lot to write about the previous aggrieved complex of the female protagonist and the second male protagonist. The compound sadistic complex is always skipped quickly, and before Before the end of the main text, I didn't raise any questions about the sweetness of the writing. I remember that the author also explained at the time that he would write a lot of sweet extras. Then after the main text ended, the extra chapters would be updated at an uncertain time, so forget it. In the end, he wrote a parallel time and space, and then it ended. You really shouldn't raise the flag again.
My eldest cousin provoked whomever, why are they all so miserable? Ji Buwei has simply set a new level of disgust for me. I hope he never dies a good death.
My eldest cousin was so miserable. He died twice and disappeared once in three time and space. And Curse Girl has to die in every time and space.
My evaluation of this chapter is that it's okay but not necessary... It's quite uncomfortable to make the second male lead so upset.
This episode is really rat shit, it's hard to put it into words...
A very, very ugly article. The male protagonist has semen in his head, and after rebirth, he only thinks about sleeping with the female protagonist, just like a sex maniac. The heroine is stupid and good-for-nothing. She can only faint, hit, and become incompetent and furious when encountering problems. Watching this stuff is a waste of time and money.
The eldest cousin finally rose to prominence. How could a general who had experienced hundreds of battles be easily killed by Jibudu?
The extras are more interesting than the main text. I hope the author is more productive!
"I am honored to have you as my chief"
