[Next Novel: Has the Heir Apparent Set Up a Crematorium Today?] A wife-chasing crematorium romance, featuring a quiet, self-effacing girl and a steadfast, stern general. The blurb is at the bottom.
In her previous life, everyone in Dongdu knew that Zhao Yu'an, the powerful Marquis of Qingyuan, was hopelessly in love with his childhood sweetheart, his cousin.
His so-called secondary wife, Yun'er, had merely become a phoenix through marrying into a noble family because she had the same cinnabar-red mole beneath her right eye. In truth, she was nothing more than a plaything the Marquis of Qingyuan used to ease his longing for someone else.
But no one knew that Mu Yunqing was willing to stay in the Marquis of Qingyuan's residence only because Zhao Yu'an's beautiful, sparkling eyes reminded her so much of someone from her past.
Reborn into a new life, Mu Yunqing stood once more on the soil of her hometown in Yanbei, tears streaming down her face.
Her home was still there, and the land of her birth was unchanged. The white-robed general who guarded the northwestern frontier of Great Wei was just as she remembered him: spirited, dashing, and unrestrained, in the full bloom of youth.
Mu Yunqing resolutely joined the army and became one of the young general's soldiers.
In this life, she wished only to remain in her homeland forever, following that white-robed figure and defending her country.
She never expected that the young general she had once been able only to look up to would one day lean down and ask her, “Would you be willing to become my wife?”

Pei Yanchuan, Heir Apparent of the Prince of Fenyang, donned armor and rode into battle at fifteen. In white robes and silver armor, his spear swept through the ranks, and even the Di, renowned for their brutality and burly physiques, had to give way before his might.
He was Great Wei's undefeated god of war, a deity in the eyes of the people of Yanbei.
But later, he no longer wanted to be the so-called deity in her eyes. He wanted her to see him as a person.

The Duke Dingguo's residence was top-tier among the Great Yu nobility. For generations, its ancestors had been either virtuous ministers or talented generals.
The Jiang family, by contrast, had descended from farmers who could not even read. At last, they produced Jiang Sheng, who entered the court as an official, only to become a true villain whom everyone wanted dead!
And now, these two families were to be joined in marriage!
-
Qi Heng, heir apparent of the Duke Dingguo, was refined yet reserved, noble and self-possessed, like a deep pool beneath a towering mountain. Yet he married Jiang Qie, a daughter of the Jiang family.
The whole court was in an uproar.
Jiang Qie knew this was the result of imperial maneuvering and political calculations, and that they had no choice. She also knew her position was awkward, so she was always cautious in her conduct and dared not cause the duke's residence any more trouble.
But in the end... she still let herself hope, wishing she and Qi Heng could share a life of mutual respect, raise children together, and grow old side by side.
Until Qi Heng defied an imperial edict and traveled thousands of miles to bring the woman he loved back to his residence.
The servants in the household said she was his childhood sweetheart, and that if Jiang Qie had not barged in and taken what was hers, the two of them would have been a perfect match.
Jiang Qie finally gave up hope and cut away every last remnant of her past fantasies.
Since they were such a perfect match, she would bring them together.
-
Since divorcing Qi Heng, Jiang Qie had eaten well and slept soundly.
She no longer had to worry about conducting herself properly lest she embarrass the duke's residence, nor did she have to endure people pointing at her all the time.
The day Qi Heng came to see her, Jiang Qie cursed someone for the first time in her life and smashed a bowl, telling him to get as far away as he could.
Qi Heng was cursed out without getting a word in. In the end, only after Jiang Qie had worn herself out did he ask softly, “So, can we not divorce?”
Jiang Qie turned away resolutely, but someone caught hold of her sleeve. She looked back and saw the usually solemn, proper man staring at her with a stiff expression as he asked, “Didn't you used to like touching me?”
Jiang Qie: ?
Qi Heng: “Do you still like it now?”
*
Everyone knew that Qi Heng was wise beyond his years, with a backbone of iron, the last pillar of the Great Yu aristocracy.
Yet when he learned that a woman had fallen off a cliff and her fate was unknown, a redness spread across his eyes as he searched for her like a madman.
If she was not by his side, what meaning was there in living through this long life?

I also like this couple of brother and sister-in-law very much~
Princess Pingyang Zhaozhang of the Tang Dynasty!!
The women in the article are all great, I like this kind of warmth
Is this the author's first book? The writing and plot are so smooth.
The male protagonist and the female protagonist are so good, they really match each other well.
Why is there no update? Come on.
"At the entrance of the valley, the leader is Bai..." This is a big bug for the author~ The spear should not be used to cut down, but to knock the horse off.
Brother, you don't even know her name, why bother bothering her about such an insignificant shortcoming in your previous life? Let the heroine go, please🙏
I saw the military post last night, and the Khan ordered his troops. There were twelve volumes of military books, each with his name on it. My grandfather has no eldest son, and Mulan has no elder brother. I am willing to serve as a saddle horse for the city, and from now on I will fight for my grandfather 😂
The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were once a pain for the family and the country
