Reader's Guide: One-on-one, both leads pure, happy ending
I'm now accepting favorites for my next story: A Sparrow in Her Palm [The Long Road to Winning Her Back]
Lin Zhiyuan was radiant and charming, clever and quick-witted, and the famous beauty of Songyang County.
Sadly, her life was as fragile as paper. Her mother died young, and her father tried to force her to become the concubine of a sixty-year-old licentiate.
Furious, Lin Zhiyuan refused. Her father threatened her:
Marry a beggar, and you'll live with a beggar. Marry an old man, and you'll live with an old man. Either marry the old man obediently, or go marry a beggar!
*
In her previous life, she foolishly tried to make her point by banging her head against a wall. She ended up unconscious and was carried off to the licentiate's house, where she lived a miserable life.
Reborn, Lin Zhiyuan chose the beggar, determined to take charge of her own life and get revenge.
She firmly believed that as long as she had control over her own fate, she could turn her fortunes around and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat!
Not one of the people who had hurt her would get away!
In the end, she did get her revenge and let go of her anger, but why was her beggar husband getting more and more out of her control???
*
Years later,
Lin Zhiyuan held the robe of an imperial noblewoman and let out a deep sigh:
I only wanted to find a lazy, greedy husband who'd do whatever I said. Why is that so hard?
Ji Mingye proudly tossed his head:
Hey, it's my fault for being too rich, clever, and handsome~

[Violent, fierce Marquis × Gorgeous, resolute black lotus]
[The long road to winning her back * Both leads pure, one-on-one]
[Qin Rao]
She was a tool for the harem to win over powerful ministers;
A bargaining chip for the Qin family to rise again;
The betrothed of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
From childhood, she grew up to suit the Marquis's tastes:
The Marquis liked the moon lute, so she practiced day and night to perfect her playing;
The Marquis liked slender waists, so she wrapped herself in raw silk, hoping to make her waist slim.
She ate the finest food, used the finest things, and wore the finest clothes, pampered and treated like royalty,
All so the person who enjoyed her could be satisfied.
But what the Qin family's years of scheming got in return was a letter breaking off the engagement.
[Huo Yuan]
Many years ago, on his way to a royal banquet, he rescued a little girl as lovely as a doll.
The emperor's consort personally arranged the match, taking the opportunity to unite the Qin and Huo families.
Only then did he learn that the girl he'd saved was the younger sister of the emperor's favorite consort.
Unless something unexpected happened, he had clearly been set up.
From then on, the Qin family devoted itself to selling their daughter for glory, raising Qin Rao to suit his tastes.
But Huo Yuan was cold-faced and cold-hearted, and repaid the Qin family with a one-way trip to the Cold Palace and dismissal from office.
"A woman like her is unworthy of being my wife."
"I'll grant her the status of a concubine. That should be enough to honor our old ties."
[Afterword]
She had hoped to marry into power, but instead became a maid in his bedchamber. Qin Rao became the laughingstock of all Chang'an.
Everyone said, "The Marquis of Zhenyuan is arrogant and proud. The Qin girl is bound to suffer every humiliation."
And sure enough, after a palace coup, word spread that the beauty had died in the Marquis's residence.
Yet from afar came rumors that the Marquis of Zhenyuan had fallen ill with longing and regretted everything. He searched the whole realm,
Demanding to see her alive if she lived, and to find her body if she died,
Determined to make her the only wife of his life.
[Bonus Scene]
Aboard a lotus boat in Jinling, Huo Yuan's eyes were bloodshot as he stared at her familiar face. His voice was hoarse, his words breaking apart:
"Rao Rao, I was wrong. I was terribly wrong..."
"Tell me what kind of person you like. This time, I'll change for you, all right?"
Qin Rao, expressionless:
"I like someone with one eye and two mouths."
"..."
"I like someone with half a nose and three legs."
"..."
"Rao Rao, here's the knife. Stab me wherever you like!"
Theme: Stay committed to targeted poverty alleviation and actively change your fate
I actually finished reading it without finishing a chapter.
Sure enough, a pig teammate is still needed at the last moment to promote the plot/face covering
Today's update is relatively late, giving a little fat chapter to the little angels~ There is another update today, the countdown to the finale has officially started! After finishing, send red envelopes to the little angels, thank you for your support (//?//)
Let me go, do you want to clear your name for this scumbag father? He treated his ex-wife so badly and slept with the woman who killed his son. This alone cannot clear his name.
What I hate the most in this article is Mrs. Yu. It would not be too much to kill this poisonous woman by a thousand cuts.
I guess that concubine is the male protagonist's chess piece
Yu must be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts, and life would be worse than death. This woman is too poisonous.
I hope you won't be affected and write the last part well. Also, this is a bit of a personal thing. Why don't you seriously consider writing the next film Chasing Wife in the Crematorium in which the ex's ashes are raised and the second male lead takes over? Don't worry, just think about it a little bit
Hey, what are you planning to write in your next book? The subject matter is very serious. Also, it is very important to comment on the red envelope lottery and what you say (:3″Z)
Lin Yuee was also a miserable person, but fortunately there was someone who truly loved her, and the two died together.
