Cong Ye was born bad to the bone.
He trampled over his clansmen’s blood, seized military power, rebelled, and forced the royal family into a corner beneath the city tower.
Cheng Yue stood atop the city wall in plain clothes, her frail body swaying in the wind as if she might fall at any moment.
“A Ye, if there’s a next life, be a good person.”
The seventeen-year-old princess leaped down.
.
The day Cheng Yue first met Cong Ye was the third day of spring, when insects awaken.
His older brother had punished him by making him kneel in the ancestral shrine. A pretty young girl held a plum blossom and smiled at him.
“I hear you’re a little rascal?”
“Well, I don’t like rascals at all.”
Cong Ye watched her cautiously. Beneath his oversized sleeves, his fingers dug into his palms until they bled.
“The little princess is right.”
“I won’t be a little rascal anymore, not in this life.”
.
That day, Cong Ye watched helplessly as his little princess fell before him, covered in blood.
Later, his older brother told him that before Cheng Yue died, she had prayed for him in the ancestral shrine.
My beloved has done many terrible things.
But I still love him.
If one day I die for my country and family,
please spare him.
After I die, he will repent.
