[Current serial: "The Widower for Sixteen Years"; completed novel: "Phoenix Emperor’s Hairpin"]
[Advance notices in the same series as "Condensed Light": "Cicada’s Wings" and "Royal Brother"]
Synopsis
A sweet-faced but scheming ruler x a cute, beautiful, easygoing consort (one-on-one, both virgins)
Synopsis One
The royal house of Jin has fallen into decline, while powerful clans control the court. Among them, the Bo family of Yangjun holds the greatest influence.
On the day the whole nation came to pay its respects, the ruler, known to all as a gentle, refined man of unmatched talent, snatched a young lady of the Bo family right before everyone’s eyes and brought her into the palace as a secondary consort, bestowing upon her the title of Ningguang.
She loved squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, so the ruler found a chef for her.
She was falsely accused, so the ruler fell out with the emperor’s envoys on her behalf.
She spoke up for her cousin, so the ruler sent the powerful Grand General of Agile Cavalry back to his hometown to farm.
Before long, everyone in Jin knew that the ruler doted on his beautiful consort and that the Bo family held enormous power.
Years later, King Ji Zhou of Jin quelled the rebellion, restored order to the court, purged the traitors, and executed the rebels. Hundreds of members of the once-overbearing Bo family knelt beneath the forty-nine white-jade steps of Linhua Hall, awaiting punishment. Among them was Lady Ningguang, Ye Wan, who had been the ruler’s favorite for years, according to the rumors.
She lifted her head to gaze at the young man in white, dressed like someone in mourning, and softly asked, "Didn’t Your Majesty say you would never abandon me?"
From atop the forty-nine steps of white Han jade, the young man’s voice was torn apart by the wind, but she still heard him.
"Ye Wan, how can you be so foolish? How could you believe something like that?"
Synopsis Two
Ye Wan was a young lady of the Bo family, a distinguished clan of Yangjun with a hundred years of history. Because she looked so much like the woman King Ji Zhou of Jin had loved and lost, she became his secondary consort.
Though she had all the makings of a femme fatale, all she wanted was to be a carefree slacker.
She had no other dream. She just wanted to live to a hundred.
After many twists and turns, she crossed paths again with the man from her past: Ji Zhou, the eldest son of the late King Zhuang and the current ruler of Jin.
He was the calamity fate had ordained for her, and she was the hardship Heaven had sent to test him.
All three of her lifelong dreams were shattered because of him. Gratitude and grievances intertwined, impossible to untangle.
"If I had a choice, I’d rather drink the potion of forgetfulness and erase you from my mind completely. If I could live it all over again, I wouldn’t have believed your ridiculous promise to marry me. ...If I could live it all over again."
She was merely a pawn in his quest to build his empire. The affection and love they shared for nearly ten years had been nothing but a complete and utter deception.
☆☆ Reading Guide
1. A tragic, passionate romance, both virgins, happy ending, and lots of melodrama.
2. Different strokes for different folks. If this isn’t your thing, it’s best to quit early.
3. The heroine’s past, present, and future all belong to the same person. She is both Ye Xiaowan and Ye Wan, the hero’s white moonlight and the cinnabar mole in his heart.

Theme: Cherish the present, and cherish the person before you.
The author's writing is really good. The female protagonist was killed by the male protagonist about twice, and she suffered so much, physically and mentally abused, and in the end, the male protagonist still loved his wife and son? I am the one who committed the crime. It makes me feel really uncomfortable. I want to kill the male protagonist to relieve my hatred?
"What kind of mistakes did he make that made him have to go to the half-soul level to seek his own perfection?" That's right, that's right. But when Ji Zhou wanted to make up for the unforgivable mistakes he had made, when he wanted to reunite the broken mirror, Xiaowan didn't know. Hehehehe! In fact, this is quite good. If Xiaowan treats him as "Wei Ming" all the time, Xiaowan will fall in love with him! (Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Hug A'Dean! You must protect yourself!)
Oops, I'm sorry to say, I really think Ji Zhou is blind and not good enough for Xiaowan, but what can I do if Xiaowan likes me?
Open it 800 times a day to see if there are any updates
Hmm... If it were me, I would definitely give up my son and there would be no possibility of reconciliation. No man in the world would die with him.
"He misses him so much that he doesn't miss him,
What he remembers has long been forgotten,
He was grateful and looked down upon him,
The one he loves never loves him back. "
Ji Zhou, but even so, I still think Xiaowan shouldn't forgive you! Xiaowan really hasn't forgiven you either! Hahahahaha!
I watched it intermittently along the way. I have always been paranoid about HE, but for this story, I hope it is BE. I just don't understand how you can forgive.
Your wife writes so well! ! Unexpectedly, some confusing points in the main text were revealed in the extra chapter. It turns out that this is the reason why Ji Zhou treats Xiaowan like this. Why is he so unsure of himself? ! Xiaowan likes him so much... Misunderstanding is really hurtful. But I like Xiaowan's character very much, she is so cute! ! The author's writing style is also very good, come on! ! Looking forward to new works! !
