Currently revising the text and updating the bonus chapters.

An educated, composed, young and beautiful marquis's legitimate daughter who transmigrated / a newly successful, pure-hearted and upright top scholar

He helps her rise to prominence, and she protects his spotless reputation for generations.

After waking up, Lin Cengceng, a cultural relic restorer who had been repairing a damaged dossier, found herself transmigrated as Lin Lang, a daughter of the Lin family awaiting marriage. The emperor had forced her to marry Zhou Jue, the top scholar of the court.

Lin Lang: ...There's no way to refuse. Refusing means death. (But the dossier says he's stubborn and self-willed, a scourge to the court who insists on reforming the system, ultimately bringing about the fall of the Song Dynasty. I don't want to be a treacherous official's wife!)

Zhou Jue: How did such an incredible stroke of luck fall into my lap? (I'm together with the person I like. I'm secretly thrilled.)

A short scene:

In the third year of the De Zong Emperor's reign, Zhou Yunshan knelt outside the main hall to receive his punishment. Snow and wind swept across the vast, empty world. His lone figure was all that remained, soon to disappear into a sea of blood.

The young emperor who had once trusted him could not escape the shackles of imperial power. He grew suspicious and distrustful, and sought to use the life of my husband, Zhou Yunshan, to prolong the fading fortunes of the Song Dynasty.

At first, I didn't know why he wouldn't fight the false charges. The officials condemned him, while the historians filled their pages with accusations, turning a once-spotless minister into a treacherous villain in the annals of history.

Now I understand. It wasn't that he didn't want to fight. He couldn't. This was the authority of the emperor, and he was powerless against it.

But I want to try. I'll use everything I have to clear his name.

Theme: Cultural relics cannot speak, but love can. One kind of love saves a beloved, while a greater love saves the nation and its people.
