Everyone knows that the second daughter of the Liu family is a delicate flower who mustn't be touched, weak as a willow in the wind and gasping after every few steps. She spends all day clinging to life with medicine.
Until one day, Wanning was invited to a flower-viewing banquet. She stumbled and fell straight into Xie Chen's arms.
Wanning: (#?Д?)??? d(?д??) o(≧v≦)o
Her legs no longer hurt, her back no longer ached, and she had the strength to walk!
After that, Wanning often visited the imperial palace, doing everything she could to get close to Xie Chen. Her health improved more and more.
When she learned that Xie Chen was about to discuss marriage, Wanning thought it over from every angle before shyly asking her aunt, the Empress Dowager, to arrange their marriage.
The third son of the Xie family, Xie Chen, passed both levels of the imperial examination in the Jianwen era and studied under a Grand Academician of the Wenyuan Pavilion. A heaven-gifted genius, he became Minister of Works at a young age. In the eyes of the world, Third Young Master Xie was modest and gentle, uniquely handsome, and without equal. All the noble young ladies of the capital adored him, eagerly awaiting news of his marriage.
Not long afterward, they learned that, by the Empress Dowager's decree, Xie Chen was to marry the second daughter of the Liu family, Liu Wanning.
To Xie Chen, this marriage was simply an ordinary imperial decree to wed. His new wife might be delicate and frail, but there was no harm in taking extra care of her.
Only after they were married, with a fine sheen of sweat on Xie Chen's forehead and a trickle sliding down to the side of his nose, did he lower his lashes and gaze at his little wife nestled in his arms, soft and warm as she clung to him. His throat bobbed, and his heart stirred despite himself.
