[Blurb for this story]
Sweet-talking, optimistic county lady who loves a pretty face x beautiful, charming young nobleman with a dark side
*
After many years away, Song Yujing returned to the capital with her family. On her first trip to a flower-viewing party with her mother, she got lost. After wandering around, she came upon a young gentleman in a peach grove.
A peerlessly handsome man, without equal in the world.
More beautiful than anyone she'd ever seen.
...It would have been even better if she hadn't mistaken him for a pretty young lady when they were children and followed him around calling him "big sister" all day.
Song Yujing: Is it too late to pretend I don't know him?
*
Rong Heng hated it when people called him beautiful. Song Yujing was the only one he desperately wanted to think he was handsome.
*
After they married, Song Yujing felt she was short on help, so she found a few more young, beautiful maids to keep by her side.
Rong Heng agreed at the time, then turned around and pinned her to the bed, his eyes full of worry.
"They say love fades as beauty fades. Jingjing, do you think other people are prettier than me now? Are you starting to grow tired of me?"
The beauty furrowed his brow, looking utterly deserving of pity.
Song Yujing blurted out, "No one can compare to my husband's beauty!"
*
Note:
1. One-on-one, lighthearted everyday romance, happy ending.
2. Fictional setting. The background is inspired by history, but I've made a mountain of changes.
[Blurb for "His Majesty Joins Me in Stargazing at Night"]
Jiang Wangyu hated the current emperor. When he urgently summoned her, she was forced to impersonate her twin brother, who had suddenly lost his sight, and enter the court as an official. She trembled with fear in the Directorate of Astronomy, each day feeling like a year.
Fortunately, in the long, dark nights, she unexpectedly met a young man.
Bright as the moon, swift as the stars.
He was not only willing to stargaze with her, but also to listen to her explain the dull art of calendar-making.
Jiang Wangyu couldn't help feeling fond of him. They talked by candlelight and traveled together, until the day she saw the chief councilor of the court respectfully bow to him, and heard him declare himself to be...
The emperor.
*
He Shang ascended the throne as a child. The court officials all hoped he would become a wise ruler, care for the world and forget his personal feelings, and be so sagacious that a hundred years later, the history books would record a tale of a sage ruler and worthy ministers.
The one exception appeared in the Directorate of Astronomy.
As he spent long nights by her side, He Shang sank deeper and deeper. For the first time in his life, he entertained a selfish desire:
To force a worthy minister to become his empress, and keep her hidden away in the depths of the palace.
To belong to him alone.
*
That night, Jiang Wangyu finished recording the celestial phenomena and looked at the young man beside her. Remembering the recent rumors in the palace, she couldn't hold back her curiosity and secretly poked him in the back.
"I heard His Majesty nearly fell asleep during court today, and that he's been missing for several nights. You serve in the emperor's presence. Do you know where he goes?"
He Shang paused, then slowly smiled. "I don't know."
But later, he held her tightly and whispered into her ear, "I'm with you."
Theme: Learn to notice the beauty in everyday life
You kid, you shouldn't have bought all the jade stones that meet the requirements in Quandong City in advance just to be alone with your wife while she accompanies you to pick jade stones 🐶
Hahahahahahaha, as soon as my brother opens his mouth, he smells like Northeastern big dirt 🐶
[The copy of the follow-up article "Your Majesty accompanied me to watch the sky at night", please collect it] His father died of a sudden illness, his mother was seriously ill, and his twin brothers even lost their sight unexpectedly. However, there was an urgent call from the palace, and the officials who carried the message were pressing forward step by step, refusing to accommodate at all. Seeing that his family was about to be charged with a serious crime of disobedience, Jiang Wangyu had to pretend to be his brother and serve as an official in the imperial prison for him. During the long night, she unexpectedly met a young man who was not only willing to accompany her to stargazing, but was also willing to listen to her talk about the boring method of making calendars. She introduced him as her close friend in life, talked with him at night by candlelight, and traveled together with him. It was not until she saw the chief minister of the court saluting him respectfully that she realized that he was actually the immediate boss of her immediate boss—— His Majesty the Emperor himself. Jiang Wangyu touched his fragile neck. Can she still save herself and her family's lives after being disrespectful in words and deeds before the emperor, and committing a serious crime of deceiving the emperor? He Shu found a good seedling in the Qintian Prison. He was good at stargazing and compiling calendars, but he was not good at speaking and was suppressed by his superiors and colleagues. He cherishes talents and intends to train and promote the other party to be the prisoner of Qin Tianjian. But then... He even hoped that she would become his queen. It was night, Jiang Wangyu recorded tonight's horoscope, looked at the young man beside him, remembered the recent rumors in the palace, couldn't hold back his curiosity for a moment, and secretly poked his back. "I heard that His Majesty almost fell asleep in the court today, and no one can be found for a few nights. You are on duty in front of the emperor. Do you know where Your Majesty is going?" He Shu was stunned for a moment, then smiled slowly and said: "I don't know." Until later, she was held in his arms and kissed softly on the lips. She saw the bright stars in his eyes and realized in a daze—— His Majesty stayed up every night because he was watching the sky with her.
It turned out to be heatstroke. I was relieved as I was thinking of some congenital disease or even poisoning.
This is the bond between the male and female protagonists
"Rejection" "I Won't Lie to You" 🐶
