Meeting Again in Autumn

- Fake-death plot for the heroine

Gu Mohen, the regent of the current dynasty, holds power over the court and can cover the sky with one hand. He is quick and ruthless in his actions. Though he has never wielded a sword or spoken of killing, others have privately dubbed him the Asura.

Even his own family has no choice but to stay on their guard around him.

Yet Han Qingqiu knows another side of her younger uncle.

When she was a child, he was the only one who treated her well.

Her family paid her little attention, but Gu Mohen would smile at Han Qingqiu and call her in a low voice:

“Xiaoshuang.”

Frosty skies, clear autumn: Gu Mohen had given her that nickname.

-

A sudden upheaval in the palace shook the court. The unloved youngest daughter of the Han family ultimately died beneath the blades of those fighting for power.

Only in her final moments did Han Qingqiu learn that she was not her parents' biological daughter.

As she lay dying, she saw the man she had long loved, her younger uncle, wearing a brocade robe stained red with blood.

In his hand was the sword that had pierced her heart.

-

When Han Qingqiu opened her eyes, she was back at the age of sixteen. She was standing before Gu Mohen, just as he said:

“Xiaoshuang, will you stay by my side?”

In her past life, she had accepted without hesitation. This time, Han Qingqiu only smiled in reply.

She would cherish this hard-won new life.

With a faked death, Han Qingqiu severed every tie to her past.

She left without a word, took on a new identity, and vanished into the mountains to live a carefree, happy life.

Who could have guessed that when they met again, Gu Mohen would be the new emperor, in control of the court?

Rumor has it that the new emperor slaughtered the old powers solely to avenge his late empress.

P.S.

The heroine was raised by the hero. In her previous life, the hero was not the one who killed her.
