In the fifth year of Emperor Chu's reign, the State of Chu was defeated. Its suzerain state demanded that Chu send a hostage to Dayu. The Emperor of Chu had only one child left: Princess Chu Ruo, who had been frail since childhood and kept hidden in the palace, unknown to anyone. With no other choice, she disguised herself as the Emperor's young son, "Young Master Ruo," and was sent to Dayu with the other hostages.
Sickly, weak, useless, and possessed of a pretty face but no substance, a useless pretty boy: that was how outsiders described Chu Ruo.
The King of Chu had a daughter named Chu Ruo, raised in the depths of the palace and unknown to all. She had a heart for the world and was full of clever plans. What a pity she was born a girl. That was how the Chancellor of Chu described her when she was ten.
A hostage who pretended to be weak while hiding her strength, burdened by national hatred and personal vendettas, single-handedly threw the powerful, prosperous state of Dayu into chaos. She also made two princesses of Dayu pine for her and fight over her.
Throughout her life, Chu Ruo kept a clear conscience. She did not fail her country or its people. The only person she failed was Jiyue, the princess of Dayu who had given her everything and trusted her completely!
Chu Ruo thought: If there is another life, I hope you never meet me again. I hope you find someone who truly loves you, takes your hand, and gives you a life of peace and happiness.
Jiyue said: If there is another life, don't be a hostage again, and I won't be a princess. I only hope we can both be ordinary people, sharing simple meals and growing old hand in hand.
CP: A beautiful, strong, tragic hostage top x a noble princess from an enemy state who bottoms (the bonus chapters have a bad ending. If you can't accept that, don't buy them.)
New novel recommendation: Hold Tight to My Eldest Sister's Golden Thigh
When you're unlucky, even water can make you choke. Xu Ruoshu stepped right into a sewer, and when she opened her eyes again, she had become a concubine-born young lady from the Prince of Jing'an's household in the State of Shuo, sent into exile.
Being exiled was fine. At least she was still a young lady from a princely household!
But her maid immediately poured cold water on that thought. It turned out her mother had been a maid who seduced the master behind the principal wife's back. Most importantly, Xu Ruoshu might not even be the Prince of Jing'an's daughter!
In other words, her mother had not only offended the principal wife, but also put an enormous pair of horns on the prince!
What kind of bizarre thought process could lead someone to do something so suicidal?
She couldn't just sit around waiting to die. Xu Ruoshu decided she had better run!
But before she could sneak away, a carriage from the capital arrived to take her back!
To save her own skin, Xu Ruoshu bombarded her companion with questions all the way there. She finally learned that the eldest daughter, Xu Qingcheng, was now the one in charge of the Prince of Jing'an's household. The prince was away from home most of the year, and the princess consort spent most of her time in the Buddhist hall.
In other words, as long as she latched onto this eldest Xu girl's coattails, she wouldn't have to worry about her life being in danger every second of the day?
Getting on a woman's good side couldn't be that hard. First win her stomach, then win her heart!
But when she returned to the capital and met the legendary Xu Qingcheng, Xu Ruoshu was instantly stunned by her beauty. Wiping the drool from her mouth, she thought to herself: Actually, you don't have to win a woman's heart through her stomach. You can also do it through her body... Just share a bed and chat, that's all (if your mind went somewhere else, go face the wall)!

It's so painful. Can there be an afterlife?
The pursuit ends here. I can't bear to part with it. The writing style is really good. Chu Ruojiyue will meet each other sooner in the next life. Oh, oh, oh, and the next life.
It's great to watch, and the ending is predictable. Finally, I'm not just blindly in love anymore.
Thinking about the next life, thinking about he
I can understand the author. Chu Ruo is so beautiful, so beautiful that I can't believe it.
Seriously, I love be!! No matter what, it's not the ending that attracts people to watch!
Where is the author? Why doesn't he reply to messages?
It's been a long time since I've seen such a beautiful GL article. There's no bad ending. The author has done a lot of hard work. Every character has his own path, and he doesn't necessarily have to have a good ending.
I have finished reading this book. It has a great pattern. There is never a perfect balance in the world. In the face of national justice, everyone should take care of everyone. This is the real pattern. This book allows me to see the power of women, and I also see that sacrificing love is never an ancient legend. After reading it, I feel empty in my heart. Every character has her own mission. I really couldn't stand it when I saw Chu Ruo's death, but that is the destined ending. No matter how she chooses to meet her, she will die.
It's really well written. I've finished reading it. Although there are some bugs in the story, the flaws are outweighed. This ending is just right and just the right tragedy. But selfishly, I still hope there will be an afterlife chapter... It's so uncomfortable. Wow.
