I finished my last book, so now I'm writing this one.
Fake frail, scheming old rogue x ruthless little fairy who can put on a convincing act
Blurb:
Chu Peizhi was born into a military family, yet she was willing to clip her own wings for Pei Fuyun. For three years of marriage, she gave him her whole heart and helped him rise.
But she never imagined that the day he succeeded would also be the day the Chu family was wiped out.
Only then did she understand that the imperial court had long considered the Chu family a thorn in its side.
If there's no road, then she'll carve one out herself.
Reborn into a new life, Chu Peizhi began pretending to be a fragile woman and chose a sickly husband after careful consideration.
Her new husband took medicine all year round, fainted at the sight of blood, and collapsed at the slightest breeze. The imperial physician said he wouldn't live more than three years.
Yet he was also a loyal official who went to court every day, even when coughing up blood.
Chu Peizhi: That's fine. It's only three years. I can keep up the act until then.
But she never expected her new husband to survive three years, then another three, and another, until he was more lively than she was.
Chu Peizhi: ...
One dark and windy night, Chu Peizhi set out to sneak into the imperial palace and assassinate the emperor. When she turned around, she found Ning Qingyuan there, his face covered by a black veil.
The delicate woman Chu and the loyal official Ning stared at each other in silence.
Chu Peizhi: Husband, were you acting this whole time?
Ning Qingyuan: Fair enough. We were both pretending with each other, my dear.
