Unexpectedly, Xie Zhuo soon distinguished himself with one great achievement after another, finally shaking off his reputation as a mediocrity. He was strikingly handsome and talented, so everyone assumed that now that he was crown prince, he would marry a noblewoman of equal standing.

Visit the author's page to add it to your collection Zhao Jingwei died in the second year of her marriage. Only after death did she learn that her husband, Shen Zhongning, had married her to secure the position of crown prince, then schemed to get rid of her so he could marry the woman he loved. Zhao Jingwei became a vengeful spirit and followed Shen Zhongning around, cursing him every day. One day, she finally got her wish. An army of rebels stormed the capital, and their leader killed Shen Zhongning. She heard that his name was Di Jing. Filled with gratitude, Zhao Jingwei repeated his name and peacefully prepared to be reborn. But when she woke again, she had returned to five years earlier, as Di Jing's frail wife, who was destined to die young… "Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it." Zhao Jingwei decided to build a good life with the man who had avenged her. Unfortunately, she was the only one who felt that way. Di Jing had no affection for his sickly wife. After they entered the bridal chamber, he wouldn't even touch her. "I warned you back then: a melon forced off the vine isn't sweet. You insisted on marrying me, so fine. My father owed your father. But if you think I'll touch you, dream on!" Zhao Jingwei: "…" His constant use of "I" in that rough, self-important way left her stunned. She was a refined young lady, well-read and courteous, and she liked refined, courteous gentlemen too. But Di Jing… It seemed that some people were best admired from afar. Up close, they were a disappointment… But in this chaotic era, as an orphaned woman, she had nowhere to go if she divorced him. And her health was poor. Zhao Jingwei thought it over and decided to give herself three years. If they still weren't suited to each other after that, she would wait until her health improved and peace returned, then divorce him. In the first year, Di Jing remained indifferent. In the second year, he was going stir-crazy. In the third year, he said to Zhao Jingwei, "Go on, tell me what I'm doing wrong. I'll change. How about it?" Another book, The Edict of Peace: Yun Xiu and Ji Xianqiao had been childhood sweethearts, and they loved each other dearly. Yun Xiu dreamed of inheriting the family business and becoming a coroner. Ji Xianqiao was exceptionally clever and became an official in the Ministry of Justice at a young age. She thought they could support each other and grow old together. But just before she was about to become a coroner, Ji Xianqiao said, "If you won't give it up, then from now on, let's pretend we never knew each other." As it turned out, all he cared about was his career and his reputation. She was merely a small embellishment in Ji Xianqiao's life, someone who made no difference whether she was there or not. Yun Xiu's hopes for the future were shattered. She chose to go her own way. Five years later, Ji Xianqiao was thriving. Still young, he had already become the head of the Court of Judicial Review, earning the emperor's favor and rising to prominence in the capital. One day, a suspicious death case came up. The coroner had fallen ill and couldn't examine the body. A constable suggested, "I've heard Coroner Yun is very capable, and the Ministry of Justice often borrows her. Why don't you ask for her help too?" Ji Xianqiao's face turned icy. "She's a perfectly respectable young woman, yet she chooses to debase herself by becoming a coroner. Why should I give her a job?" "…" The constables gradually realized that this promising young official was rather strange. He was usually calm and composed, but whenever Coroner Yun came up, he went completely off the rails. Eventually, they reached a conclusion: Lord Ji acted that way because he was in love with someone he couldn't have. Ji Xianqiao scoffed. "What are you talking about? Even if there wasn't another woman in the world, I still wouldn't like her!" Later, when he learned Yun Xiu was going to marry, he went even more out of his mind. A childhood sweetheart turns rabid, and a story about taming him.
