Lin Yuyan, the Princess of Jiaxiu, was mocked by everyone. In her previous life, she died young before she could get her revenge. Reborn on the very night she was attacked, she was supposed to be the proud and virtuous legitimate daughter of the Ningyuan Marquis's household, but unexpectedly gained a powerful eunuch for a father, one who cherished her above all else.

Rumor had it that she, the daughter of a eunuch, had become the apple of Prince Chu's eye.

But Lin Yuyan knew perfectly well that Prince Chu was using her to seize the throne.

Whether in this life or her previous one, whether she was the pampered, arrogant legitimate daughter of the Ningyuan Marquis's household or the reviled daughter of a powerful eunuch, Chu Yu was always there.

She knew Chu Yu had married her for the throne, to win her father's support, and to further his countless schemes. What she didn't know was that the once-unfavored Third Prince had spent three years campaigning across the frontier, all to earn permission to cherish her in the palm of his hand. He had played power games and landed himself in prison, all to put her heart at ease.

On their wedding night, she didn't dare face her husband, who was rumored to be cruel and cold-hearted. She claimed she was feeling unwell, yet stood rigidly in place like a statue.

He leaned close to her ear and murmured, “Didn't you say you were unwell? Why aren't you going to bed? Don't tell me you're lying to me?”

“Didn't you say you would marry no one but me?”

When Gu Yanfeng said this, Xiao Yao lowered her lashes.

When Xiao Yao was sixteen, her father sent her to the family home in Lin'an. By chance, she saved a young general and devoted herself to caring for him every day until his wounds had fully healed.

The young general didn't want to leave. He stayed by her side, making her laugh, and the two fell in love.

Later, the border war grew urgent, and the young general left. He was gone for three years.

He asked Xiao Yao to wait for him for three years, and she did, not a day more and not a day less.

Three years later, Xiao Yao returned to the capital and married. Her husband treated her wonderfully, and she was content with their peaceful life. Then, at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, she sat at her table and saw from afar that the Crown Prince looked exactly like her young general.

But the Crown Prince's eyes seemed to hide an abyss of torment, and they frightened her.

When she stepped outside for some air, the Crown Prince followed. Leaning against the carved railing, he regarded her with seemingly gentle eyes, but his voice was sharp as an icy blade. “Were you really unwilling to wait even one extra day for me?”

Xiao Yao knew she had done nothing wrong. “We agreed on three years. I waited.”

The relief in her voice struck the Crown Prince's deepest nerve. Gu Yanfeng scooped her up around the waist and carried her straight toward the Eastern Palace.

“Gu Yanfeng, I'm another man's wife. What are you going to do to me?”

A dark smile glinted in his eyes. In an unhurried, icy voice, he replied, “Another man's wife? How interesting.”

Everyone in the capital knew the Crown Prince hated people who were late.

They also knew he loved hearing why people were late.

On a chilly autumn day, the man had rushed from the frontier to Lin'an, riding three steeds to death, and still arrived a day late. But Xiao Yao was always punctual.

Ming Xi and Xiao Yunhuan were a perfect match, talented and beautiful, and their romance was the talk of the capital.

Just days after their wedding, Xiao Yunhuan led his troops into battle and died on the battlefield.

Ming Xi wept until she went blind, then stayed inside the prince's manor, never going out.

Half a year later, Xiao Yunhuan returned with a pregnant woman. He didn't know how to explain things to Ming Xi, but since she was blind, he kept the matter from her and got her pregnant too, thinking she wouldn't leave him if she were carrying his child.

Later, Ming Xi's eyesight recovered, and she learned that during those six months of unbearable grief, Xiao Yunhuan had been living happily with another woman and leaving her to suffer alone.

He called the woman Mianmian. When she gave birth, Xiao Yunhuan stayed in the courtyard all night.

“Then let's divorce, Xiao Yunhuan.”

“Xixi, no one else would dare marry you. I won't let you leave.”

It wasn't until the child in Ming Xi's womb died that Xiao Yunhuan finally let her go.

That year, under the brilliant spring sun, Ming Xi, the youngest daughter of the Fengyang Marquis's household, went hunting with her elder brother. From a great distance, the radiant young woman, bright as the sun, left her mark on Xiao Yunhuan's heart. Everyone thought their love was mutual, but at first, he had deliberately sought her out.

After Xiao Yunhuan became emperor, he visited the Fengyang Marquis's household three times to ask for the youngest daughter of the Ming family to be his empress, but he couldn't even get to see Ming Xi.

So, if three visits weren't enough... he would visit every day. And if a daily visit wasn't enough, he would move into the Fengyang Marquis's household...
