Wen Beichen rescued Li Xunling from danger in his previous life and took her all the way back to the capital to help her inherit the throne. She thought that the two of them cherished each other sincerely, but she never thought that Li Xunling's heart would fall on her.
She wielded power over the government and became the regent. She did good things to benefit the country and the people, but she was criticized as a sycophant who used sex to serve the emperor.
The girl she likes is shying away from marrying someone else because of Li Xunling.
Li Xunling had been kind to her all his life, but she always ignored him.
Before returning to save Li Xunling in her next life, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll find someone else to save her this time and see how she falls in love with me." They will be kings and ministers, confidants, but not lovers.
But when Li Xunling really regarded her as a subject and a confidant, she crawled at his feet, crying and begging him to fall in love with her.
This is Wen Beichen's own journey to pursue his wife, her own crematorium.
...
Regarding rescuing people, Wen Beichen took his junior brothers and sisters with him.
The two have good looks and different personalities, and can meet Li Xunling's various requirements.
She just acts as a transparent person and does not compete for the qualifications to rescue people.
The junior brother received the Night Pearl as a tribute from the Western Regions: "Senior sister, look at the Night Pearl. It is big and round. I like this kind of treasure best."
Wen Beichen raised his eyes and saw that this was the night-glow pearl she used to illuminate next to her desk in her previous life.
Junior sister received the Longquan sword: "Senior sister, look at my sword, which cuts iron like clay. It is a reward from the princess."
Wen Beichen's eyelids twitched. This was the sword she had worn in her previous life. It's psychologically unpleasant to look at something that originally belonged to you in the other person's hand.
She snatched the Longquan Sword and the Night Pearl.
...
About meeting.
In his previous life, Li Xunling tried every means to see her, using various reasons including banquets, injuries, and rewards. Li Xunling would knock on the door of Wen's house, holding a bottle of wine in his hand and asking her: "Beichen, I specially found a century-old wine for you. Would you like to have a drink together?"
After having an official position in this life, Li Xunling would only announce her presence when something happened.
Wen Beichen suddenly went to the princess's mansion one day. She was poisoned, so he bowed down to Li Xunling and said, "Princess, I heard that there is a thousand-year-old snow lotus in the princess's mansion, so I came to ask for medicine."
No one knew that she had given this poison to herself.
...
Regarding the position of the queen, according to Daqi law, the female emperor cannot have children and must establish a female as his queen.
In her previous life, Li Xunling begged her to join the harem, but she refused.
After Li Xunling ascended the throne in this life, he prepared to be crowned queen according to the law.
I don't want it for those who want to be an official in the court, I don't want it for those who have a sweetheart, and I don't want it for the only daughter in the family. The Ministry of Rites selected the portraits of twenty people and handed them to Li Xunling.
As a close minister of the emperor, Wen Beichen took his portrait and knelt at the feet of Li Xunling: "I petition... To run for the election of queen."
...
What hurts Wen Beichen is not that Li Xunling doesn't love her. What hurts her is that in Li Xunling's heart, her love has no reason, and her kindness has no reason.
She wanted to atone but was not guilty.
Purpose: Cherish the people in front of you
