The Brooding Tyrant Is Actually a Good Guy!

(New book, Springtime Romance in the Duke's Mansion, updating now) Everyone knew that Emperor Yuanxi was reclusive and indifferent, cold and cruel. No one in his harem dared approach him. But A Ning watched him secretly from the shadows and knew he was the man who often appeared in her dreams. He was her husband in her previous life. He was such a good man... Emperor Yuanxi grew up in the Cold Palace, dark and reclusive. Even as a boy, he had fixed his gaze from the shadows on his elder brother's childhood sweetheart. She was rosy and fair, soft and sweet. They said she had studied Buddhism since childhood, and was blessed with divine light and a Buddhist nature. But all he had was greed. He wanted to swallow her whole. He used every means at his disposal, plotting carefully until he destroyed her engagement and married her as his consort. He loved her madly, obsessively, and with a heart full of guilt. He treated her like a treasure, cautious at every turn, as if treading on thin ice. Who could have known how much the world would change? She was bedridden for a long time and died the year before he was fortunate enough to ascend the throne. Emperor Yuanxi placed his late wife's memorial tablet on the imperial bed and held it in his arms every night as he slept. He thought that was how he would spend the rest of his life. Then one day, among a group of female physicians with their heads bowed and faces composed, he saw a pair of eyes. She was sneaking a glance at him. Is it you? It is me.
