The Bright Moon Returns

Ming Jiao is reborn.

In her previous life, she fell in love with Xun Yan at first sight at the imperial horse ranch. She was even willing to give up the throne of Empress just to enter the palace. But the emperor's heart was cold, and Xun Yan never trusted her. When the Ming family army was wiped out in the mountains, she was sentenced to die by poison.

When she woke again, she was back on the day she first received the emperor's favor after entering the palace. Ming Jiao no longer showed mercy. She made a cup of poisoned wine with her own hands and invited him to drink it.

But as the strong wine went down her throat, she realized that her own cup had been poisoned too.

You vile Xun Yan!

As she faced death for the second time, Ming Jiao bitterly regretted not making his death more painful!

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the days before her marriage. This time, the new emperor overruled all opposition and personally drafted an edict making her Empress.

Ming Jiao: Fine. Let's see how I kill you this time!

Xun Yan is reborn.

He was murdered twice, and each time after his death, his spirit drifted through the palace and saw the unloved Consort Ming follow him in taking her own life. Deeply moved, he made her Empress as soon as he woke again.

This time, he will never doubt her again. He will find the culprit who killed them and share the empire with her.

But on the night of the imperial wedding, Xun Yan looks at the familiar poisoned wine in his cup and falls silent...

Xun Yan had always expected to sit high in the halls and maneuver his way through life. But after being tossed about by the mortal world, he finally understood that everything he had ever wanted was worth less than one smile from her.

*A lightly sweet romance, with a touch of groveling, a hint of possessive love, and a cheerful tone and plot. Both leads are a little goofy, and the male lead is constantly imagining things and convincing himself of his own theories!!! No angst at all, so dive right in.*

[Blurb]

Jiao Yi is the precious jewel of the imperial family, cherished by everyone. Now that she's seventeen, the thing she dreads most is getting married.

That's because she's picky about looks, and there's not a single man in all the capital who measures up to her.

When the new imperial examination results are announced, Jiao Yi follows everyone else and goes to snatch a husband beneath the list of successful candidates.

From the Chunhua Tower, she looks down and spots a handsome young man with a face like jade.

As clear as a breeze and bright as the moon, his beauty is unmatched.

Jiao Yi thinks that even if he's a bookish dullard, she'll take him. So before he can even leave the alley, she has her people grab him.

The young man is very cooperative, too. The two exchange their birth details and hastily swap betrothal documents.

Only later does Jiao Yi realize that the man she grabbed may not be a bookish dullard, but an utter fool...

Xiao Yan is the leader of the greatest martial arts sect in the world. He has come to the capital to take the imperial examinations, but his real goal is to investigate a mysterious case from the imperial palace years ago. On the day the examination results are announced, he deliberately dresses up, hoping some noble family will snatch him and become his backer.

In the crowd, he spots a lovely young woman. She looks easy to fool, and surely comes from a distinguished family.

So he deliberately walks into a quiet alley and lets her capture him, then exchanges betrothal documents with that silly girl.

As the silly girl beams with joy, Xiao Yan feels a little guilty and thinks he will treat her well in the future.

Only when the imperial decree arrives at his home does he realize just how powerful a "backer" he has found.

On the day Princess Jiao Yi marries, as the whole empire celebrates, the martial arts world is thrown into chaos.

Who can tell them why their leader went to the capital once and came back a prince consort who sold himself for his looks?

Now that the emperor is the sect leader's father-in-law, should they still investigate the imperial mystery?

Premise: Find your equal, and stand beside each other at the summit.
