About this story:
(The 15,000-word collection of bonus chapters is in Bonus Chapter Collection and is now complete.)
[Blurb 1]
In this life, Du Ruo became Wei Xun's princess consort once again.
But now, her gaze was colder than it had been in her previous life.
She remembered that in their three years of marriage, Wei Xun had kept watch over Ling Lan, who had become the emperor's consort, and had never once looked at her. Later, to save his elder sister, Princess Liyang, who had been sent to marry into the Kingdom of Yan, he even let Ling Lan steal the military seal and lead troops in a rebellion against the capital.
In the end, the princess was safe, the emperor's consort remained at court, and Wei Xun was made a marquis and chancellor in Yan.
Only she was left alone and trapped in Prince Xin's manor, bearing the title of Princess Consort of Xin. Her entire maternal family, the Du clan, was wiped out. After four years held hostage and imprisoned, she died in despair and terror.
Reborn on the day of her wedding, Du Ruo could think of only two words: "Divorce!"
But when she saw the Wei Xun of this life, she didn't even bring up a divorce. She went straight for him with a knife...
[Blurb 2]
Prince Xin, Wei Xun, was the sixth prince of Great Wei, the most favored in the imperial capital, and an unparalleled young man who galloped down the vermilion streets of Yedu.
When Du Ruo's father proposed the match, he described him as "a proper gentleman, refined and gentle."
But the noble families and relatives of Yedu all knew that after returning from Yan, the young gentleman was no more. All that remained was a bloodthirsty minister in power.
Of course, no one dared say a word.
Years later, as the misunderstandings and grudges from their past life were gradually unraveled, Du Ruo looked at the person on the bed, not knowing when he might wake, or whether he would ever wake again. Only then did she slowly understand: it wasn't just that the gentleman had never returned in the years after their previous life.
Even after being reborn, that young lord who had once been so pure and noble, untouched by worldly dust, had never come back.
The one who returned was a young commander, restrained and taciturn, who dealt death with bloodthirsty resolve.
Wei Xun: In my previous life, I held the vermilion brush and steeped myself in books, yet I still failed to protect you. In this life, let me test the world with blade and sword, and protect you.
An icy beauty vs. a gentle gentleman
Content warnings:
1. Happy ending. The main story will put you through the wringer; the bonus chapters are pure sweetness.
2. In their previous life, everyone gets their comeuppance. Anyone named in the blurb meets a bad end.
3. The male lead had a first love in his previous life, earning him a painful reckoning in both lives.
4. Soapy, old-school melodrama; both leads are reborn; completely fictional setting with many original details.
Theme: Though the road is rough, perseverance will lead you to the light.
I really like the heroine of this article, she is smart and tough. At the same time, I also really hate the male protagonist of this article. He is an indecisive loser. Counting his past life, he was a mentally and physically dirty person. He is not even worthy of carrying the female protagonist's shoes~
Wuwuwu third brother. . . . . . He deserves a good home
From God's perspective, it's really annoying. Everyone's thoughts can change a bad situation, but how can the people in the game have so many God's perspectives and foresight?
Three times later, I'm crying again!!!!! Love dogs and daughter very much
... This book is really poorly written. Even after reading the beginning and looking directly at the ending, I will still be angry.
The author is great, this is really good. Most of the main characters are both good and evil, good and evil in an instant. It's so touching. The story is complete, I like you so much~
It's too hard, it's too hard for these two people
Maybe my ability to empathize is poor. In this chapter, I just felt that Du Ruo was stupid. She chose the worst of all the strategies, moved herself, and hurt the people who loved her.
It's been a long time since I've read a story that's so sad and sad. The author is so good at writing 💪 💪
I feel like my whole life has been quite tragic. It's nothing more than my previous life being completely wiped out in a daze, and this life I'm soberly watching things happen.
