Forced Marriage

When You Ning saw Shen Jian being made to kneel in the rain again, her kind heart moved her to give him her umbrella.

The rain poured down. She didn’t notice the unnerving longing in the man’s eyes, and had no idea what kind of demon she had provoked.

Later, You Ning was ordered to marry. Just then, Shen Jian returned to court victorious.

The slave who had once been as lowly as dirt had risen to the highest ranks of the imperial court. Wearing black armor, he stormed into the wedding procession, roughly yanked open the sedan curtain, and fixed his burning gaze on her.

“Prince Zhao is not right for you. Come with me, and I’ll keep your family safe!”

The heat of his gaze set her heart pounding. She lowered her eyes to avoid it, her breath catching.

“Thank you for your kindness, General. I love Prince Zhao, and I’ll never change my mind.”

The Pei clan of Hedong had enjoyed a century of noble prestige.

This rough-hewn general must have tried to seize a bride in broad daylight so the Pei family would help him claim the throne.

The Emperor could tolerate no defiance. He would surely kill him to set an example.

You Ning sighed, lamenting the loss of a brilliant general.

She never expected that the general would escape death, then wipe out the entire imperial family!

Rain mingled with blood as it splattered across the white jade steps. The man strode into the hall with a sword in hand.

Her little nephew wailed in her arms as You Ning pleaded in a trembling voice, “General, you can’t, ”

“I can.”

He lifted her outer robe with the tip of his sword. His rough, scorching fingers parted her disheveled hair and forced her to look up at him. “Pei Youning, marry me or die.”

Shen Jian was born into lowly circumstances and had long grown used to the filth and injustice of the world.

But the warmest spring sunlight fell into the dirtiest hell.

Though it wasn’t his to keep, it stirred an inexplicable urge to claim it for himself.

From then on, through mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, through poisoned wine and schemes, he clawed his way out of hell, took on a new identity, and rose to power, all so he could hold that spring sunlight in his hands.

#Such beautiful spring sunlight belongs hidden away with me#

#I hate how the moon hangs high in the sky, shining on everyone, not just me#
