The New Emperor Regrets It Too Late

[The author is low on energy and can’t guarantee regular updates. The novel is no longer paid, and future updates will be whenever possible until it is finished.]

Everyone said Yaoyao was blessed. She had been a servant in the Wei household, yet married Xie Yanzhou, Prince Jing, as his principal consort. He kept her all to himself, and she enjoyed a life of luxury.

But no one knew that Xie Yanzhou’s heart belonged to Wei Yuyao, the eldest legitimate daughter of the Wei family.

He had married Yaoyao only because she bore some resemblance to Wei Yuyao.

Wei Yuyao entered the palace as a consort and became Xie Yanzhou’s sister-in-law. Xie Yanzhou rebelled and seized the throne, heedless of Yaoyao’s life as he tried to take back the woman he loved.

The day the capital fell, the desperate emperor suspended Yaoyao and Wei Yuyao, the woman Xie Yanzhou loved, over the edge of a cliff. With arrows aimed at them, he forced Xie Yanzhou to choose which one would live.

Xie Yanzhou chose Wei Yuyao.

He thought nothing would happen to Yaoyao. He thought this was just another act she and the emperor had put on to deceive him.

But he never imagined that Yaoyao would use a hidden weapon in her sleeve to saw through the rope and plunge over the cliff before his eyes.

At the bottom of the towering cliff, Xie Yanzhou searched along the sheer rock face for two days and two nights. All he managed to rescue from a pack of wolves was a jade bracelet stained with blood.

It was the gift Yaoyao had asked him for on their wedding night.

The wolves’ teeth were smeared with blood and flesh, and the remains of her torn clothes were still caught between their jaws.

His Yaoyao had been devoured by wolves, and he couldn’t even recover her body.

Xie Yanzhou clutched the jade bracelet, his eyes brimming with bloodlike tears. His mind was filled with every smile and frown she had shown him on their wedding day.

[The heroine isn’t really dead.]

[The hero is devoted in both body and heart. There’s more to the woman he once loved, but it would spoil the story to say more.]

The Heir Regrets It Too Late

Wan Ning grew up in the countryside, innocent and carefree.

Wei Linhuai was born into a prestigious ducal family. Handsome and renowned throughout the capital, he was peerless.

Wei Linhuai was gravely wounded and lost his memory. Wan Ning saved his life.

Later, when Wan Ning’s father fell seriously ill and could not be cured, he used his daughter’s kindness to pressure Wei Linhuai into marrying her.

Wei Linhuai agreed.

Wan Ning’s father died, and Wei Linhuai, his memory restored, took her back to the Duke’s estate.

The ducal household was grand and prominent, but Wan Ning was still innocent and kept calling him “husband.”

Everyone privately said Wan Ning was just dreaming.

Stubbornly, Wan Ning refused to believe them.

Until the day she found out she was pregnant, when Wei Linhuai brought her a bowl of medicine to end the pregnancy.

The bitterness of the medicine and the wrenching pain in her belly left Wan Ning unable to speak.

She looked at Wei Linhuai and smiled, tears filling her eyes.

She thought, So those people were right. He was never my husband.

The day Wan Ning lost the baby, war broke out on the border. Wei Linhuai left the capital with his troops, abandoning her at the Duke’s estate.

At the time, he thought, She’s only a woman. How much could she matter?

But later, when his life hung by a thread on the battlefield, all he could see in his mind was Wan Ning’s tear-filled eyes.

Wei Linhuai survived by a hair’s breadth and returned victorious. By the time he reached the capital, Wan Ning had disappeared.

He searched for her year after year, but never heard a word.

Years later, she came to the capital to seek medical help for her child.

That day, rain poured down in sheets. She held the child in her arms while the man beside her sheltered them both beneath his umbrella.

Through the rain, Wei Linhuai heard her call the man “husband,” exactly as she used to call him...
