In the winter of the first year of Yuanqing, a new emperor took the throne. The former Crown Prince's entire faction was accused of fabricated crimes and executed, without a single survivor.
As Fu Hezhou died, she saw an umbrella decorated with winter plum blossoms. Beneath it stood a man in black, sword in hand, his gaze cold. Her husband, whom she had married only two days earlier, slaughtered the entire clan before her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, Fu Hezhou had returned to the age of eighteen.
At the time, she was sitting on a green-tiled roof, watching the future's most feared assassin get beaten up beneath the red walls.
Remembering the 1,800 innocent lives lost in her previous life, Fu Hezhou smiled and rescued him, vowing to uncover the true master behind him.
For the next year, she shielded him from hidden arrows and open attacks, staying by his side through one disaster after another. Several times, she nearly gave her life for him.
Everyone around them said Fu Hezhou was hopelessly in love with Xia Que.
But after she discovered the truth about her previous life, Fu Hezhou pressed her foot against the scars crisscrossing the wounds on the man beneath her and ground down hard.
Leaning close to his ear, she laughed softly. "Xia Que, do you still like me?"
Though he was covered in blood, he answered in a hoarse voice: "...I do."

Xia Que's entire family was slaughtered when he was a child. Later, he took the murderer as his adoptive father, and his pride and conscience had long since been lost amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
He had thought he would spend his whole life sinking into a filthy mire of blood, but then someone reached out and told him, "I'll always stay by your side."
Even though Xia Que knew she was a little liar, he still willingly fell into the trap she had woven for him.
Because she was his little fairy, and little fairies should never be sullied by anything vile.
All he wished was to become the sharpest blade in Fu Hezhou's hands, cutting through every obstacle for her and clearing a path through seas of blood.
Even if it meant endless ruin, he would never regret it.
