My Mortal Enemy Got Married

Overnight, the dynasty changed, and the Xie family, exiled to the frontier, was exonerated. Xie Yu went from a lowly convict to a rising star at court.

Three years of wind and sand at the border had blown away every trace of the young man's noble pride. The gentle gentleman was gone, leaving only an emperor's close aide, cruel and brutal in his methods, both pitied and feared.

The first thing Xie Yu did after arriving in the capital was seek out Jiang Fu.

She was the daughter of a princess of the previous dynasty.

Innocent and cruel, she had lured him into making a mistake, just to add another charge to the Xie family's record: failure to educate their child, and offending a member of the imperial family.

But Jiang Fu had vanished without a trace.

They met again at a victory banquet.

She had changed her name and taken on a married woman's hairstyle. With her head slightly bowed, she sat beside her husband, revealing a pale, delicate profile and a few stray hairs behind her ear. She looked every bit the gentle, virtuous wife.

Xie Yu clenched the jade pendant in his sleeve, lowered his eyes to suppress his dark expression, and sent a message ordering her to leave.

In an empty corridor, beneath dim lamplight, he met the woman's alarmed, evasive gaze and said each word deliberately: "Four years ago, on the Shangsi Festival, Madam and I went boating together for three days."

"You have a red mole on your ankle and one on your chest."

"If you don't want anyone to find out, come to my room at the third watch."

An old-school melodramatic romance.

Theme: Love is sincerity.
