The Regent's Blind Little Husband

Regent Xiao Yan has a strikingly handsome face, but he rules with absolute authority. He is a cold-hearted, ruthless, and brutal madman.

In his entire life, he has only ever obeyed and dutifully cared for his grandmother, who raised him by herself.

To repay a debt of gratitude his grandmother once owed, he has no choice but to marry a frail young husband from a poor family who is visually impaired.

At first, he has no particular thoughts about the man. He merely brings him home and provides food and shelter, ignoring him completely.

But before long, the young emperor comes of age, and the regent steps down from office, becoming a former official who has "retired to his hometown."

For the next ten years, Xiao Yan endures disdain and humiliation, hardship and bitter cold, with only his young husband by his side, remaining faithful and never leaving him.

Song You is an inconspicuous son born to a minor sixth-rank official's family. He is a male-born child, destined to become someone's wife and bear children.

Seeing how handsome he is, the Song family shamelessly uses an old family debt of gratitude to force him into the residence of Regent Xiao Yan.

Everyone knows the regent is cold and merciless. Sending a frail young man like Song You into the wolf's den will only get him eaten until not a bone remains.

But no one knows that during the Lantern Festival that year, Song You was deliberately pushed into the river by his older legitimate brother. The freezing water nearly killed him, but then a strong, warm arm wrapped around him and pulled him to safety.

"Are you all right?"

Before Song You could react, someone draped a thick, warm cloak over him.

It carried a refined medicinal fragrance.

Afterward, he kept that fragrance in his heart, often imagining what its owner looked like.

Only later did Song You learn that the owner of the fox-fur cloak was the powerful Regent, a man far beyond his reach.

Later still, his older brother sent Song You to the regent's residence, where he became Xiao Yan's young husband.

Everyone thinks that someone of his standing will surely be tormented to death after marrying into that household.

But he doesn't care about the gossip.

Time will prove that whether in the splendor and prestige of the capital or in the humble simplicity of the countryside, Xiao Yan is the right man for him.
