Blurb:

[Innocent, doted-on young princess x devoted, wise emperor]

On a dark, windy night, Ren Nan'an fell asleep and began to dream.

She dreamed she was dressed as a man, riding boldly across the autumn hunt, with her worried older brother Ren Beining close behind, along with her princely cousin Zhou Jiali, whose eyes were full of her.

The cool breeze brushed her face. Everything felt so real.

Ren Nan'an remembered: this was her thirteen-year-old self.

She had thought that being reborn meant she would never have to worry about a political marriage again. But after she read the letter she received that day, the dream ended.

The next day, Ren Nan'an received another letter. That night, after reading it, she once again entered a dream, returning to the past described in the letter.

Little by little, she learned the other side of the past: the person writing the letters was her cousin, Emperor Zhou Jiali, who had supposedly died.

And Zhou Jiali had secretly loved her.

Zhou Jiali's wish was to marry her.

To uncover the real reason for Zhou Jiali's death, she read one letter after another and entered one dream after another, carrying her memories of him as she met him again and again.

-

Ever since he caught a brief glimpse of his cousin Ren Nan'an at the General's residence as a boy, Zhou Jiali had been unable to forget her.

Gradually, he developed the habit of writing letters, in which he recorded the wishes he had always known he could never fulfill:

He wanted to share with Ren Nan'an the joy of winning a prize at the hunt.

He wanted to watch a spectacular fireworks display with Ren Nan'an.

He wanted to marry Ren Nan'an...

[Short Scene 1]

As the emperor's attendant, Eunuch Su naturally knew many of His Majesty's unspoken secrets. One of them was that whenever he had a moment to himself, the emperor would return to his bedchamber and take a treasured portrait from the cabinet, gazing at it for a long time.

Eunuch Su knew exactly who was in the portrait: Ren Nan'an, the legitimate daughter of General Ren.

Like the other attendants around the emperor, he understood the depth of His Majesty's feelings for the princess. Yet he could only watch as the emperor was unable to marry the woman he loved, destined to regret it for the rest of his life.

[Short Scene 2]

Dressed in red, Ren Nan'an traveled to another country with the wedding procession. Not long after they reached Xianzhou, a group of black-clad assassins suddenly appeared and surrounded them.

Driven to the edge of a cliff, Ren Nan'an had nowhere left to run.

She glanced down at the mountainside hidden by the clouds. As the assassins stared in shock, she jumped without hesitation. "Zhou Jiali, I love you too."

"Now I'll come be with you..."

When she opened her eyes again, a familiar figure stood by her bedside, his hands clasped behind his back. His posture was just like Zhou Jiali's.

Ren Nan'an's eyes reddened, and her voice trembled. "Zhou Jiali...?"

"It's me."

1. One-on-one romance. The heroine enters dreams eight times to uncover the truth.

2. The story is far-fetched, but the author had fun writing it. The hero didn't die after all, and it has a happy ending.

3. That's all for now. Please consider bookmarking it.
