[Severe writer's block. I'll fill in the gaps slowly.]
On the way to the capital, Du Qingyuan saw a Brocade Guard wielding a blade and drinking blood in the rain at night. The sight haunted her nightmares for over half a month.
Only later did she learn that he was the man she had married in her elder sister's place.
A living hellion who had killed countless people and was infamous throughout the land.
On their wedding night, she met his dark, fathomless gaze and felt like a rabbit caught in a beast's sights.
All color drained from her face. Not even her heavy makeup could conceal her pallor, and her round eyes brimmed with the desperate will to survive.
Yi Xiao found her utterly uninteresting. Irritated, he lost interest and couldn't even be bothered to go through the motions of drinking the wedding wine. He swept out of the room.

Yi Xiao had climbed to the top over mountains of corpses and seas of blood. His eyes were fixed solely on the road to revenge, and his heart was so hardened that he had never imagined anyone could move him.
Even his lawfully wedded wife was just another piece in the political game.
After the wedding, Yi Xiao looked at her with unconcealed disgust. "Starting tomorrow, move to the south wing."
He had expected her to be heartbroken and beg him to reconsider. Instead, her round eyes instantly lit up, and her voice rose with excitement. "Really?!"
For some inexplicable reason, Yi Xiao suddenly felt annoyed.
-
After they began living separately, Yi Xiao gradually started paying attention to what was happening in the courtyard next door.
When her lights turned on and off, when her bright, chattering laughter rang out, it all kept him tossing and turning late into the night.
After putting up with it for several days, he decided to warn her to move back and live under his nose.
But she pleaded illness and refused. "I wouldn't want to pass my sickness on to you, my lord."
The next day, Yi Xiao returned from the government offices and ran into his "frail" wife laughing brightly by Anhe Bridge.
A handsome young gentleman beside her spoke with gentle sympathy: "The Commandant is so cold-hearted and unfeeling. You must have suffered so much..."
Yi Xiao's face was as cold as frost. His narrow phoenix eyes were like an ancient, frozen pool, cold enough to kill.
#A sinister official who thinks he has everything under control but falls deeper with every step X a seemingly sweet and innocent girl who is actually cold and heartless#
Theme: Love takes root without our knowing, then sinks deep.
It's like workers don't like to meet their bosses in the company. Of course they feel comfortable when the boss is not around 🐶
Tuesday? Say it again [angry]
It's so beautiful, ah ah ah, rob it, rob the secretary and be nice to others, and I'm very curious when Master Yi will be able to drink Du Bao's wine~ Humph, then let this arrogant man face up to Du Bao's ability
Master Yi always lives in intrigues, but he especially likes Du Bao to show his true appearance? In particular, Du Bao's real appearance is also very beautiful, he is smart and lively, and he has the drive to resist those in power, and he is not a completely brainless fool.
Master Yi began to think: Could it be that she wants to live like this with me? Huh, I'm not a casual man
Du Bao is really a shining soul in that gloomy society. He will definitely be happy in the future. By the way... While he is still not good enough, let Yi Darensha penetrate the Du family.
I really feel sorry for Du Bao... Sigh... But don't worry, even if your words fall into Master Yi's ears, he won't be really angry except to tease you, scratch his head
Master Yi's character, actually from God's perspective, is really cute, just like a cat, bullying the shit collector every day, he has a bad temper and looks fierce, but when he is happy, he is so beautiful that it makes people happy.
It's so sweet, really... Even if they are not in love, they still feel the sweetness in every move they make. "I can't tell that his wife is still a good candidate for practicing martial arts." Even if it was a substitute marriage, he did not deny the other party's identity or cause any embarrassment. He seemed to know the difficulty of the woman. Du Bao is the same. I can see the spirit of the soul under feudal oppression. I really like this book.
Hooking up your fingers to call people over, lowering your head to pretend you can't see, hahahaha
