Mu Ningshu took the place of a Jiang princess and was sent beyond the frontier for a political marriage. In three years, she married three times. Her new husband, Helian Xuan, was her stepson. He murdered his father and seized the throne with ruthless methods, then took her as his concubine according to the customs of the grasslands.
He was consumed by ambition, cold and distant. She spent her days eating, drinking, and lying flat, playing the part of a sweet, delicate princess. They shared a bed every night, yet kept out of each other's way, a couple in name only.
Until one day, Mu Ningshu was given a rather crude aphrodisiac.
Helian Xuan, who had never shown the slightest interest in her, appeared at her bedside.
She knew he didn't love her, and didn't even want to touch her, but her whole body felt as if countless insects were biting her. She steeled herself and hooked a finger around his, begging for help. At worst, he could shove her away and leave her behind.
Her eyes glistened with tears. "Please."
In his other hand, Helian Xuan held the antidote he'd found for her.
His eyes darkened. His voice hoarse, he tossed the antidote aside without hesitation.
By accident, Mu Ningshu became the emperor's most favored consort.
When her identity as a palace maid was exposed, she faked her death and fled.
Years later, she happened upon Helian Xuan on an imperial tour.
Mixed in with the onlookers, Mu Ningshu listened to the gossip about herself.
"Ever since that demonic beauty from the Central Plains died, the Great Chanyu has gone mad. He kills without mercy and thirsts for blood."
"Keep your voice down. He loved her deeply. He might cut your tongue out."
That gossip was way too far-fetched.
She'd know if he loved her, wouldn't she?
A familiar, icy gaze swept toward her.
Mu Ningshu: "..."
Oh no. This is bad.
A cold, calculating Chanyu x a cute, slow-on-the-uptake princess
● Both leads are sexually inexperienced. Happy ending. They fall in love after marriage.
● Notes:
1. The leads are not related by blood, and there is no romance while their pretend mother-son relationship is in effect.
2. The male lead's father is not his real father, but his enemy. There is no patricide.
3. This is a fictional setting. The geography, peoples, and characters are not based on real-life counterparts.

No??? No???? Why do some people always go crazy while writing??? No?? I don't understand the author. Do you know what you are writing? You've laid the foundation for the male protagonist's deep affection through explicit and implicit lines before, so why on earth do you agree at this juncture????? Give your woman away??? Do you know what to write? Don't tell us that you are a foreshadowing, and there will be a reversal later?? Everyone knows that there will be a twist later, but this way of dealing with it is too disgusting. Maybe if you read the whole story, this series of things will happen in chapters 3 to 5, but we and the serial are going to be disgusted for 3 to 5 days??? Either you write more and finish it all at once and don't get stuck on this inexplicable crazy plot, or please change it and see for yourself, is this what a sweet article can do? This is embarrassingly sweet, it makes me sick to my stomach! No, I really don't understand. Why do you start to get crazy in the middle of writing? Aren't the previous parts written well?? Why go crazy? Why go crazy?? This is worse than a eunuch
??? I... Mrs., Do you know what you are writing 💔💔
Suddenly seven years later, I thought I missed it 😂
Didn't he think he was hallucinating when he saw her through the fire, then walked towards her, and then went into the fire pit? (*￣M￣)
When will this old routine and misunderstanding end? Why don't you say it when you have your mouth? Why does the heroine have so many things going on in her mind? Why does she love to think so much?
No, this is a bit too hasty, right? This ending
The ending is a bit sloppy, so I think I started high and left.
The plot moves very quickly [Gotou] There have been big changes in these chapters
Another seven years passed!? Meow meow meow?
Emmm, you have to prepare such a bloody plot for the death escape 😂
