Emperor Han and Empress Wei

The inexplicable inferiority and cowardice she felt in her previous life condemned her to a lifetime of depression!

She didn't want to enter the palace, yet she became a Jieyu!

Alas, she spent half her life in the palace's desolation, like a flower withering away!

You don't understand life until you've lived through it!

Perhaps Heaven thought she'd suffered enough indignity and grievance in that life.

After experiencing modern civilization in her second life and seeing things clearly, Heaven took pity on her and let her live again as a descendant of the Wei family.

With memories of two different eras, how could she go back to being a timid, self-pitying nobody? Wouldn't that be letting down Heaven, Earth, and her parents!?

"I wish to marry you. If you agree, I will send ten miles of wedding gifts, and you alone will be my companion for the rest of my life." He had fought on many battlefields and survived countless battles. Whenever she was in danger, he was there to help. He had fallen for her long ago, and would marry no one else!

"If you wish to become empress, then marry me, and I will make you empress! Even if it costs me everything, even my life!" He had been a prince of a fief. Faced with the hopes her family had placed in her, he fell silent for a moment, then finally resolved to ask for her hand.

"Hmph! Forget it, all of you! I uphold benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, and propriety, and I always behave with humility and courtesy. But do you really think I'll yield everything to everyone!?" He had never imagined that if he let his guard down for even a moment, the woman in his heart might become someone else's.

How could he let that happen!

If I hadn't allowed it, how could you have saved her in that moment of danger?

You're a prince of a fief. Even if you rebel and become emperor, could you dote on her and cherish her as I do, with her as your one and only!?

If you can't, then stop fighting me for her!

What!? You're waiting for me to die!?

You can die first. I'm not going anywhere!

This is outrageous!

Wei Yan frowned at his side. "Can you really promise I'll be your only empress for the rest of your life?"

"What if I can't?"

"Then let me go sooner rather than later! I could... Actually, being a nobleman's wife wouldn't be so bad!" Wei Yan considered her age and decided she was still in her prime. She picked up a bronze mirror, saw that she was still as beautiful as ever, and let her thoughts wander to the man who had truly cared for her... Back then, if fate hadn't played such tricks, she would have changed her mind and not entered the palace to become empress. She had been just one step away from not becoming a wife of the Liu family.

The next day, His Majesty issued an edict: Men over twenty must not remain unmarried! The harem would accept no new consorts. Anyone who petitioned otherwise would be charged with trying to persuade the emperor!

I've started a new story, set against the backdrop of the Han Dynasty. As usual, it's an imagined story written within a historical framework.
