[Synopsis]
Wen Yan went to the capital to investigate the injustice done to her father. Because of a jade tablet, she deliberately approached Li Chengxu, the only son of the Duke of Dingguo, under the guise of being his "aunt."
When she first met him, he was high above everyone else, as if all the stars revolved around him. His eyes were fixed on the heavens, and he treated Wen Yan with distant arrogance.
Later, when his father scolded him and he lamented that no one understood his ambitions, Wen Yan casually offered him a few words of comfort. The very next day, he started following her around, calling her "Aunt" in a clingy voice.
All she wanted was revenge. She had no interest in his attempts to please her. She rejected him again and again, pushed him away again and again, and even stabbed him without hesitation in front of the emperor's bedchamber.
He smiled and replied, "Very well, then."
The night she left the capital, the snow by the lake had piled up to her calves. He smashed the boat she was about to board. His face twisted with madness as he grabbed her tightly and gritted his teeth. "You shouldn't have come to tempt me. You tempted me, then let go and walked away. How dare you?"
Li Chengxu kept a secret in his heart: he had fallen for his aunt in a way he shouldn't have. After countless sleepless nights, he finally broke free of the chains of morality and confessed his feelings to her.
But she only looked at him coldly, hurling one cruel remark after another. Yet he loved her so much that he had lost himself. He couldn't bear to let her go. So he humbled himself, stooping to beg her to try to accept him.
At last, she agreed to marry him. But what awaited him was not a future of tender, loving bliss, but a dagger driven straight into his abdomen.
She said, "Your father killed mine, so I'll kill his son."
He laughed as blood poured out, staining the snow on the ground in great dark patches. Perhaps from the moment they turned against each other, he had gone completely mad...
Clear-headed, scheming female tutor who seeks revenge for her father × pure-hearted, lovesick, obsessive young general
This is a fictional world. The male and female leads are not related by blood. The entire plot serves the romance. Happy ending.
[Upcoming novel The Princess Is Hard to Serve has over 100,000 characters posted. Please add it to your collection!]
After bandits killed her husband, Princess Xiahou Xi became a widow at a young age. Lonely and bored, she came across a lowly slave stealing medicinal dregs in the kitchen. Xiahou Xi was taken with his handsome face, pointed at him with a dainty finger, and ordered him to serve in her courtyard from then on.
She gave him a name, had people teach him to read and write, and trained him in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She even had him practice the operas she loved to hear. Her efforts paid off, and she finally molded him into exactly the kind of man she liked best.
The nights were cold, and Xiahou Xi thought of how there was no one beside her in bed. She felt lonely and miserable. Giving in to her lust, she began to tease and flirt with him on purpose, enjoying how she could make him blush and avert his eyes.
At last, she was happy, and so was he. When she cried, he suffered too. When she was angry, she took all her frustration out on him. She kept him in the princess's residence for her own pleasure.
She thought her happy days would continue like this forever. But one night, while her laughter echoed through the entire princess's residence, her husband's corpse rose from the dead. He had come back alive and lifted the curtains around her bed. She and the slave in the bed were both too stunned to react.
Her legitimate husband had returned. Xiahou Xi's lustful courage deserted her, and the very next day she drove him out of the residence, secretly warning him never to show himself in front of her again.
Later, fate played a cruel trick. The lowliest slave became emperor, and one night he boldly entered her bedchamber. Outsiders said he was visiting his imperial elder sister, but only Xiahou Xi knew he was a devil returned from hell...
Lu Jin'an thought that his handsome face would help him stay by Xiahou Xi's side for longer. But before half a year had passed, she had already grown tired of him. Later, he used a few more tricks to lure her back. Just as he thought they could enjoy a few more days of affection, her husband returned.
The next day, Xiahou Xi abandoned him. No matter how desperately he begged, she remained unmoved and threw him out of the residence. For the sake of so-called love, he humbled himself to the very limit.
"Please, just take pity on me and let me stay by your side. You don't know that I can't live without you."
"Lu Jin'an, I hate it when people won't take no for an answer. Let's part on good terms. Don't make me look down on you. If you really can't go on living, then go die."
In that instant, Lu Jin'an's heart turned to ash. Later, he really did go and die...
Note: Happy ending. The male and female leads are not related by blood.
Theme: Seeking justice, not fame or fortune
It ended so unexpectedly hahaha. The overall story is good, but the telling is very jumpy, and the final ending is like riding a rocket. The development of the emotional line between men and women is more detailed than the revenge line of the heroine. Good luck to the author for his next one.
I really love this kind of male protagonist who humbles himself for love, it really pokes me.
"Breasts" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ fierce
Seeing this, I would like to make a suggestion to the author. The title of the protagonist's parents can be replaced by their identities. For example, "Ding Guo Gong and his wife are deeply in love". This feels better. The same goes for the protagonist, Mr. Li, Mr. Wen, please change the title more often. And the big imagination is really wonderful, I love it
Come on? Catch a treasure author, I hope you will become a big author with JJ million collection!
Oh, what a pity that he became a general and we are so gentle.
This silver mine is fake. What's the use of this prince?
It's very good, the plot can attract people to keep watching~

She gave him a name, taught him how to read and write, play chess, calligraphy and painting, and also asked him to learn her favorite opera by babbling. All the hard work paid off, and she finally trained him to be the way she liked him most.
