Coming soon: "The Deceptive Beauty and the Emperor," please add it to your reading list.
Jiang Yu had spent years wandering outside her home when a steward from the Minister of Works' household suddenly recognized her and brought her back to become the legitimate eldest daughter.
Her father refused to acknowledge her. Her mother clung to the elegant, lovely impostor daughter with tears in her eyes, while her siblings secretly looked down on and shunned her.
But because of an imperial decree left by the late emperor, the legitimate daughter by blood had to marry into the marquis's household and wed the refined young marquis, adored by all the noble young women in the capital.
On their first day together, the young marquis told her that the woman he wanted to marry was the impostor daughter, and that he would have nothing to do with Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu had nothing to say. She simply enjoyed the power and influence of the marquis's household, chatted about gossip with her mother-in-law and aunt-in-law, found good matches for the family's two younger girls, and helped keep the marquis's career on an even keel. Then she ate and drank to her heart's content, living a leisurely, carefree life.
Whether her husband took concubines or flirted with other women, she didn't react at all.
Later, when her family kept pressing her, Jiang Yu took the initiative for the first time and politely asked the young marquis to take a concubine and have a child.
The usually mild-mannered young marquis smashed his teacup. His eyes reddened slightly as he glared at her through clenched teeth.
"I will not have a child with another woman."
Tags:
1. One-on-one romance, both leads are devoted to each other, happy ending.
2. A husband pursues his wife. The heroine is forced to marry the hero and cannot divorce him because he has power over her.
3. The whole story costs just six yuan. Writing takes effort, so please respect and support every reader who buys the book.
Content warnings:
1. This is a husband-pursues-wife story, and the pursuit begins after the story is published. It has a happy ending. The hero falls for the heroine and pursues her, gets hurt for her, is rejected and pushed away by her, and gets stabbed by her. I'm not sure whether this meets the usual standards for this trope, so if you're uncomfortable with it, please don't read.
2. The plot serves the romance, and there is no outline for the plot itself, so it will be fairly simple. Please don't read if that bothers you.
3. The second male lead is the hero's younger brother. This is a sister-in-law and younger brother-in-law romance, so readers with strong moral scruples should avoid it.
4. I don't know how to assess writing style. I'll do my best to tell the story in my humble prose, so readers with high expectations for the writing should avoid it.
5. I'll add more warnings if I see other common dealbreakers. Everyone has different tastes, and I hope you enjoy reading.

When Jiang Rongxue was thirteen, she met the person her twin sister had rescued. He was lofty as a mountain, with snow falling from the clouds. She had never seen such a beautiful boy.
Jiang Rongxue secretly protected him, brought him food, and pricked her hands while sewing clothes for him. But whenever a smile appeared in his eyes, it was always her sister reflected there.
Later, he returned to the Eastern Palace, and she learned he was the crown prince.
Later still, the Jiang family was sentenced to exile, and her sister disappeared. With nowhere else to turn, Jiang Rongxue put on her sister's identity and knocked on the Eastern Palace's door.
She took credit for her sister saving the crown prince's life, seduced him into falling for her, and made enemies of his ministers and defied the ruler. She endured countless injuries, all to overturn the case against her family.
At night, whenever he pulled her close by the waist, he would call her tenderly,
"Niannian."
But her childhood name was "Suishui."
On a rainy day, her sister sent word that the Jiang family would soon be exonerated and return to the capital, and that she would come back too.
Bruised and bedraggled, Jiang Rongxue packed her clothes and left the Eastern Palace that very night. She left Bianjing, too. She didn't even dare to send a reply or offer an explanation.
Less than a month after she left, the crown prince, who had long since taken power, cornered her with his Black Armored Guards and strode toward her step by step.
Jiang Rongxue was in a pitiful state. He gripped her cheeks and forced her face up. In his eyes, she saw a cold, dark fury she had never seen before.
"Jiang Rongxue, aren't you good at lying?"
"Why don't you dare keep lying to me?"
Theme: The past is dark and beyond reclaiming, but the road ahead is bright and brilliant
It's not necessary. Stop picking up men from the trash can. As I said, female video writers should give the female protagonists more good food.
Many of the plots in this article are about fighting and killing, and women have no role in it. Most of the time, the female protagonist is like duckweed, being caught and saved by that, while the male protagonist is like Superman, who is seriously injured every time he is stabbed and cannot die. The plot is also very classic. First, the male protagonist has no emotions and only wants to pursue his career, and is indifferent to the female protagonist. The heroine's enthusiasm was extinguished and she turned around to do other things (career, relationships, etc.), Which impressed the hero. The male protagonist discovers his feelings and confesses to the female protagonist, but then the female protagonist no longer wants her. Classic wife chasing crematorium. The reason why the heroine doesn't want it is usually because she feels that she is not worthy (this article is the case), or she thinks that something else would be better, or there is no reason why she wants the crematorium anyway. This type of male protagonist is usually cold-faced and hot-hearted, only working and saying nothing, and is eventually exposed by relatives and friends. In the ending, the male protagonist suffered a great hardship for the female protagonist, and even let the female protagonist leave. In the end, the female protagonist decided not to leave.
It's totally unnecessary and I don't understand it at all. Who is this torturing? Male protagonist or female protagonist? Or the eyes of our readers?
Mr. Chen San: Thank you, uncle!
It took me an afternoon and a little bit of the evening to finish reading it. I feel that there is not much problem with the author's writing, but the whole feeling is very depressing. Many things are not explained clearly. The male and female protagonists seem to have no mouth. The emotional line is so, the main plot is not so clear, and the male and female protagonists have a lot less sense of CP. Well... Come on...
It was very uncomfortable because the heroine's pain also came from the male protagonist, but the heroine forgave him. I don't think it's necessary, I'd rather the oe heroine wander around the world.
This plot is really shocking... I'm speechless
What a hasty ending. I cried. Looking forward to the next book.
What did you do there early?
I skipped chapters and read it. I felt that I would rather be. There could be a side story where the male protagonist is reborn and then the two of them have sex. This is acceptable. This ending is perfect. It's so strange. I obviously have a lot of time and can live freely. Why do I have to stay in the capital and fall in love every day?
