The General Dotes on His Wife Without Restraint

The adjacent story, With You, Reborn, is currently being serialized!

The year Chu Yue returned to the capital at thirteen, she ran into danger and was fortunately rescued by Jing Li, heir to the Duke of Dingguo.

The heir was dashing and strikingly handsome. Chu Yue saw him only once, but secretly had a crush on him for a long time.

Her elders teased her, "When Ah Yue grows up, how about marrying Jing Li?"

Chu Yue blushed bright red, wishing she could grow up faster.

After an upheaval, Chu Yue fell from the much-admired Princess Ning'an to the daughter of a disgraced official, while Jing Li became the most sought-after young general in the capital.

Their stations were now worlds apart. No one spoke of a marriage between their families again, and Chu Yue quietly buried her feelings deep in her heart.

When Chu Yue was fifteen, Jing Li was ordered to lead a campaign against the Xirong.

She heard it would be a prolonged war. Clutching the heart-protecting mirror passed down by her ancestors, she waited for Jing Li on his way home, only to be mocked and ridiculed by the people accompanying him.

The young man she had admired for so long rode past indifferently, glancing down at her from his horse. Chu Yue felt as if she had fallen into an icy abyss. Clutching the mirror, she fled home.

But she had never expected Jing Li to come see her the day before he set out. He seemed like a different person. His gaze seemed to cross a thousand mountains and rivers, landing straight in her heart.

In the warm morning light, the young general cast off his usual coldness, his gaze tender and lingering. "Ah Yue, didn't you have something to give me that day?"

Jing Li and the Xirong were mortal enemies. Since childhood, he had sworn that he would never rest until he conquered them.

In his previous life, he crushed the Xirong and became a war god renowned across the land, but he regretted it every day and night.

The year he was trapped in Xirong, the girl he had fallen for at first sight volunteered to marry into the Xirong royal family, trading her life for his freedom.

From then on, the world was vast and empty, and she was gone forever.

When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to the day before his departure.

In the morning mist, the girl's eyes darted about anxiously. Jing Li could barely breathe from the pain. She was afraid.

He had a long life ahead of him. He would help her let down her guard and give her all the love and affection he owed her from his previous life.

Coming soon: Yu Huan

Qi Yuan, heir to the Duke of Anguo, is decisive, handsome, and a favorite before the emperor. His future is limitless.

Everyone says he keeps his distance from women, but Qi Yuan knows he is no ascetic. He often dreams of passionately reveling with a woman.

One day, he encounters his newly widowed cousin. Qi Yuan is stunned.

After the young woman greets him and lifts her head, he clearly sees the face of the woman from his dreams.

A year ago, Shen Ying visited the Duke's residence to see her aunt, but was set up and spent a night with Qi Yuan, the heir.

Their stations were far apart, and Shen Ying refused to become a concubine, so she left in the middle of the night.

Unexpectedly, a year later, she runs into Qi Yuan, who has come on official business.

From then on, he becomes a frequent visitor to her home, showing no consideration for her status as a widow. His gaze is laden with meaning. "I hear you tell everyone I'm dead and that you have my posthumous child?"

Shen Ying is a little flustered.

A little scene:

It's a fine spring day, and servants come and go outside the window.

In front of the dressing table, the woman wears simple clothes, her hair loose. A white silk flower trembles in her hair as she nervously urges the man behind her to close the window.

The usually calm and self-possessed heir's eyes are red at the corners. He glances at the child sleeping soundly on the bed, then slowly grips her slender waist. "Are you still going to pretend to be a widow?"

Coming soon: The Minister's Wife Was Stolen, and She Was Reborn

Jiang Wan, daughter of the Earl of Anping, is beautiful, soft, virtuous, and demure, but her life is rather miserable.

Her father doesn't love her, her stepmother doesn't care for her, and even the marriage her late mother arranged for her is given to her half-sister. She herself is casually matched by her stepmother with an obscure scholar.

Fortunately, although her husband is poor, he is kind and considerate. In the second year of their marriage, he comes first in the imperial examinations, and she rises from being a scholar's wife whom her sisters looked down on to the wife of the top scholar.

Jiang Wan thinks at last her happy days have arrived.

Until one day, her husband, who once swore eternal love to her, grips the hem of her skirt and sheds two tears. "Wan Niang, I've wronged you."

That very night, Jiang Wan is sent to the emperor's bedchamber. After enduring daily torment, her heart turns to ash, and she dies young.

When she opens her eyes again, Jiang Wan has returned to the night she entered the palace.

She casts off the resistance and hysterics of her previous life. Carefully plotting and advancing step by step, she tramples those who bullied her underfoot. With the support of Grand Tutor Xu Yanqing, she eliminates treacherous officials and assists the crown prince, becoming a virtuous empress praised by all and a wise, illustrious empress dowager.

In her eighteenth year in the palace, at the Hall of Compassionate Tranquility.

Jiang Wan, now the empress dowager, keeps her almond-shaped eyes half-closed, her lovely face glowing. She gently nudges the man behind her with her smooth, soft elbow. "What do you think about the crown prince taking over the government?"

The still young and vigorous Grand Tutor has no desire to discuss politics at that moment. As calm and steady as ever, he says, "Ah Wan, focus."
