Everyone thought Zhou Yuetang had terrible luck.
On the very night she married into Prince Rui's household, the prince was forced to leave the capital on official business in the dead of night, and never returned.
Prince Rui died in the line of duty in a distant land. His newly widowed princess repeatedly wept until she fainted.
But no one knew that the princess was only putting on a show in public. In private, she was practically over the moon.
With a husband she'd never even met gone, she had…
a flood of compensation from the court,
endless gold, silver, and farmland,
and…
One summer afternoon, Zhou Yuetang reclined on a daybed beneath the shade of a tree. She glanced over lazily and tossed a grape at the groom in the blazing sun.
"Hey, no slacking off. Take good care of my flowers."
The grape hit his temple. The groom turned, his tall, broad frame casting a heavy shadow.
His gaze was deep and sharp, like that of a dangerous beast ready to pounce.
Sweat soaked his thin vest, outlining his powerful chest.
He lifted a huge bucket of water, nearly half his height. The muscles in his arms bulged, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
"This servant obeys the princess's command."
Utterly humble, yet somehow…noble.
Zhou Yuetang's mouth went dry.
"Wash up, then wait for me."

Life was looking bright, and youth was still on her side. There was certainly more than one excellent man in the world.
Zhou Yuetang didn't understand. She'd only made the same mistake every man in the world made. Why was he so angry?
She struggled and kicked at him. "You lowly, base servant! What right do you have to throw a fit at this princess?"
The groom was driven away by her, but before long he returned, carrying the Nine-Dragon Umbrella and Peacock Fan. Beneath the imperial crown was a familiar yet unfamiliar face, hard and cold.
"Princess, did you miss me?"

The little palace maid Yun Yao had a prophetic dream.
In her dream, she would marry the emperor and then successfully assassinate him.
When she woke up, Yun Yao didn't hesitate for long. The emperor had an awful reputation, so she decided to do the world a good deed.
Besides, her dazzling life in the dream had so much to look forward to. Once the foolish ruler was gone, she'd become empress dowager and live a splendid life until the age of ninety-six.
Fate had arranged everything for her, so what was there to fear?
Yun Yao rubbed her hands together. Let's do this!

That night, in the emperor's bedchamber, the curtains were warm and the spring air thick with desire.
Yun Yao wept softly, utterly baffled.
Why wasn't he dead? Wasn't she supposed to become empress dowager at twenty and enjoy a carefree life?
Fate had tricked her. How unfair!
The emperor looked up in the middle of his busy schedule.
"A-Yao, don't move…"
"Why are you crying? I'll give you my life."

Pre-collection of "Wang Di Chun Xin", in which a tyrant puts on a vest and chases his wife after a robbery. Interested friends can click to collect it to show your interest! ~ **** Copywriting **** A prosperous family in Xijing has been wearing hairpins for generations. Now there are two cabinet ministers in one family, and he is a well-deserved leader of the scholarly community. As the eldest daughter of the Sheng family, Sheng Hongyuan got engaged to the Crown Prince of Wu while peeing. Her life of stability and wealth had come to an end early. Until one day, the city of Xijing was destroyed. Hongyuan's father and brother were strong-willed and would rather die than draft edicts for the new dynasty. Her father and brother were imprisoned, and the Holy Order entered the palace. Hong Yuan thought that the Dog Emperor wanted to kill her nine tribes, but unexpectedly, it was actually an edict to make her his queen. The jackal on the Jinluan Palace looked at her from a distance, curling his lips and sneering, "I can rob you of you, but you still want to escape?" Hong Yuan could not escape for the time being, so she entered the palace in tears for the sake of the Sheng family. The jackal probably wanted to humiliate her, but he never showed her face after the marriage. On the contrary, Hong Yuan was happy and happy to be at peace. He had been in the palace for three months and had no idea what his husband looked like. One night, she sneaked out of the palace, intending to see her ex-fiance who had been imprisoned for a long time, but she met a guard on the way. The guard stopped her politely and said, "Whatever message your Majesty wishes to convey, I will handle it on your behalf." Hongyuan felt that he had met a good person. She asked the guards to deliver a message to the Sheng family, "Your Majesty is cruel and does not allow my family to enter the palace to see me. Sir, you are kind-hearted, please help me." She asked the guards to bring a snack from outside the palace, "Your Majesty is cruel, and the imperial kitchen bullies me and shows no favor. I can only rely on you, sir." The guards were gentle and polite, and obeyed her requests. Hong Yuan's gratitude gradually turned into a heartbeat for this obedient and good-looking man. She ordered her guards to set fire to help her escape from the palace, "Your Majesty is cruel, what should I do if one day he thinks of taking my life? You help me, and I will marry you." The guards were willing to take risks and did everything for her, and the two of them escaped from the palace smoothly. The mountains are high and the sea is vast, making me feel uncomfortable, but Hong Yuan found that the guard seemed to have gradually changed him into a different person. After nightfall, he is cruel, greedy, and demanding. Hongyuan shivered. Every morning, he woke up with tears. Only then did she realize that she had escaped from the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den. She whimpered, "I really misjudged you." His eyes darkened, and he smiled coldly, "You are from a scholarly family, a noble girl, but my queen wants to have an adulterer with her husband and wander around the world. I misjudged you."
If the if line unfolds, it will really be another story hahahahaha
The ending is indeed rushed, but the heroine does have the temperament of an NP heroine in the end.
The little general has already gone to the house to meet his parents and is going to Oita.
