"The only stain on her life was her husband, Fu Chaozhao."
Ye Yuanqing came from a distinguished family. Her father was the Grand General Who Protects the State, her uncle was the Grand Preceptor, and her grandmother was a princess of the previous dynasty.
She was brilliantly talented, deeply learned, breathtakingly beautiful, and exceptionally clever. In all of the Ling Kingdom, she was like the bright moon in the sky: admired from afar, yet impossible to reach.
·
At nineteen, she married Fu Chaozhao.
Fu Chaozhao, the third son of Prince Fu, was a weapon his father had painstakingly cultivated to clear the way for his eldest legitimate son. He was sinister, cruel, and utterly devoid of charm. He treated everyone with icy reserve.
He relied on his father's protection and his own talent to do as he pleased. He purged loyal officials and disrupted the court, becoming the person the emperor most wanted to eliminate.
·
For years, Ye Yuanqing was married to him, watching him recklessly fight for power day after day. He climbed without regard for anything, only to lose his power and dignity in the end, and die at the hands of his own elder brother.
Fu Chaozhao was an utterly dull man. He neither knew how to cherish a woman nor how to show tenderness, and he was always cold toward Ye Yuanqing.
But he never took a concubine or sought romance elsewhere.
This man, viewed as a traitor by everyone from the imperial court to the common people, had secretly borne the blame for every charge brought against Ye Yuanqing's father, uncle, and brothers, shielding them from accusations and execution.
·
The snow fell heavily that year. Ye Yuanqing ran outside and saw Fu Chaozhao, covered in blood and with both legs gone, slowly crawling toward her. A long trail of crimson blood spread across the ground like red silk.
He said, "Yuanqing, I want to see you one more time before I die."
Later, the entire Ye family was executed, and Ye Yuanqing died at the age of twenty-six.
·
Reborn seventeen years into the past, in the Ling Kingdom.
The autumn wind blew, and yellow leaves drifted down.
On a drizzly night, Ye Yuanqing rose from bed and looked at Fu Chaozhao, still cold and handsome, leaning beneath the eaves. She asked softly, "May I ask what brings Lord Fu here so late at night?"
He frowned at her, a fleeting trace of sorrow in his eyes. His voice was cool as he said, "Ye Yuanqing, when your cousin and I raced horses that year, I clearly won. Why did you give him what should have been mine?"
She paused, thought for a moment, then asked, "Do you mean the sachet I embroidered? Didn't you refuse it back then?"
His expression grew colder. "When did I ever say I didn't want it? You were the one who played favorites and secretly gave it to him. Besides, didn't you marry me just to spite him?"
Ye Yuanqing glanced at the rain growing heavier and urged him to leave. "Lord Fu, it's late and raining hard. I won't keep you here."
She turned and left. Behind her, he asked, "Ye Yuanqing, in this life, are you really going to marry your cousin?"
The rain was loud, but she faintly heard herself answer, "Yes."
·
1. Both leads are reborn.
2. In his previous life, the hero loved her without realizing it. In this life, he fights like mad to win his wife back.
3. The romance between the leads is sweet.
Blurb for the completed book Folded Green Joy:
Wan Qingyu and Xiao Qiuzhe lived apart as soon as they married. She lived halfway up a mountain, tending flowers and plants, while he fought ruthlessly for power in the capital.
·
Everyone knew their marriage was a transaction of mutual benefit, with nothing to do with love.
After two years of marriage, they were only a couple in name, growing more sick of each other by the day.
·
When Wan Qingyu's childhood friend Fu Yushu returned, a gifted young man as bright as the wind and moon, rumors that she and Xiao Qiuzhe were about to divorce spread through every street and alley.
·
That day, Xiao Qiuzhe returned from court and, as usual, ate and slept alone.
Late that night, the attendant he had sent to investigate arrived in the rain and reported, "My lord, Fu Yushu went to the cottage in the mountains and hasn't come out."
Xiao Qiuzhe abruptly sat up in bed and asked coldly, "Do you know what they did?"
The attendant glanced at him and replied, "I couldn't see clearly, but..."
Xiao Qiuzhe pressed him. "But what?"
The attendant answered cautiously, "But... the lights in the room went out."
The lights in the room went out?
·
Xiao Qiuzhe immediately got out of bed, grabbed a cloak, and hurried outside.
The rain was growing heavier, and the weather colder.
He mounted a fast horse and rode through the bitter wind and pouring rain, arriving at the mountain cottage in the middle of the night.
·
Xiao Qiuzhe knocked on the door. Wan Qingyu opened it, looking astonished.
Without a word, Xiao Qiuzhe rushed inside and looked around. There was no one else in the room.
·
Wan Qingyu closed the door, walked to the bed, and lay down. After coughing weakly a few times, she said to Xiao Qiuzhe, soaked from head to toe, "Lord Xiao, my home is modest. Please sit wherever you like."
Xiao Qiuzhe gazed at her pale, emaciated face, his eyes full of complicated emotions.
·
Wan Qingyu coughed repeatedly, then told him, "A few days ago, the Xiao household cut off my allowance. I was too embarrassed to ask my family for money. Lord Fu heard I was ill and came by just now to bring me some."
Lord Fu? Her childhood friend Fu Yushu, the man she had once loved.
·
Xiao Qiuzhe frowned at her, his expression both conflicted and stern. He said, every word deliberate, "Wan Qingyu, you should understand that I am the husband who went through the wedding ceremony with you."
"When you were in trouble..."
"You'd rather turn to him than to me?"
·
Wan Qingyu looked at her husband, who seemed somehow different from before. She opened her mouth, not knowing how to explain.
Xiao Qiuzhe gave a cold laugh, strode to the bed, and swept her up into his arms.
He tossed out a frosty command: "Come back to the capital with me. Spend as much of the Xiao household's money as you like. Anyone who stands in our way will be killed."
·

It is really not easy for our young lovers to miss one life and suffer for two. Two people who have endured all the hardships can finally live out their lives together in peace and joy!! Every character is portrayed with flesh and blood and characteristics, even the villain is not flat and vicious. Ye Zhuo and Wen Yan's journey from looking at each other and hating each other to going to Yu Kingdom together at the end is also touching. I feel that in the end, Ye Ning and Fu Chengyan can write a separate book wwMarry first, love later
A very nice novel. Almost the entire story is about attacking the male protagonist, and the female protagonist also spends most of the article worried about the male protagonist. As for the ending of the previous life, even if it was written as sweet, it was just sugar in the shards of glass. There is only one poem about the dream of a boudoir as a tribute to the young couple in their previous life: they pitifully carried a crossbow and went through all kinds of hardships. Hungry, cold, fed and warmed by no one, sleeping and eating alone. Have you ever suffered physical injuries or been frightened repeatedly? When I think about the past carefully, I still feel resentful, and I divide the mandarin ducks into two parts. I feel drunk and sick all day long, sitting in a smoked cage until dawn. When I left, the flowers on the street were like brocade, but today the willows on the roof of the building are green again. Poor Nong is waiting in the boudoir. I think of the day when Begonia blooms. The door knocker occasionally rings and letters of suspicion arise, and the city's whispers and worries arise. Why haven't I heard from him since I left? I don't care about the heartbroken people in my family.
Just let his father go like this...
I like both the male protagonist and his brother, and the ending is great. But I also want to read Ye Ning's story
There must be something unspeakable! Fu Chaoxun loves the heroine so much and has suffered so much along the way. There is no big obstacle. It can't be like this. It's too difficult for them [bursts crying] Update soon. I want to see what the reason is. Give me candy quickly, give me candy quickly! [Purple sugar][Purple sugar]
He keeps being awkward and awkward, so let's just say goodbye and regret him to death.
I feel like Big Brother and Ye Ning are a bit interesting hahaha, finally there is someone who can deal with Big Brother
It's very interesting and the content is very innovative!
Can we continue kissing in the next chapter, hahaha
Hahaha, Fu Chaoxun couldn't help it!
