Tang Li never expected to see a life-flashing-before-your-eyes moment before she died, let alone one featuring her nemesis, Luo Yuan.
Luo Yuan, a prince enfeoffed despite having a different surname, with the privilege to enter the palace armed and wearing his sword.
More handsome than Wei Jie, yet a reborn Yama whom everyone feared even to speak of.
Parricide and fratricide were the least remarkable of the rumors about him.
He had eighteen kinds of torture devices, three hundred forms of torture, and over a thousand ways to kill an enemy.
Since she was going to die anyway, she thought of an unfulfilled wish and simply kissed Luo Yuan.
Everyone's jaws dropped, and they all started wondering how many days she had left to live.
Tang Li: "What are you looking at? So what if I kissed him? I could kiss him a thousand times, ten thousand times."
It's her dream, so she makes the rules.
Luo Yuan sneered. The veins beneath his pale skin bulged, as if he were enduring some kind of humiliation.
"As you wish, Your Highness."
Even in her dream, Luo Yuan was still cruel and ruthless, just like the real thing.
Terrified, Tang Li shut her eyes and waited for the dream to end.
On the first day, the dream didn't end.
That night, priceless treasures appeared in the Princess's residence out of nowhere. Tang Li said, "I wish ten chests of gold would appear tomorrow."
The next day, her maid stared at the gold that had appeared from thin air. ???
On the third day, the dream still hadn't ended.
That night, the consort who had bullied Tang Li suddenly broke down in tears and apologized to her.
Tang Li said, "It would be even better if my good-for-nothing younger brother showed up too."
The next day, the Seventh Prince spontaneously came to Tang Li and begged her forgiveness. Her political enemies: ???
On the tenth day, the dream still hadn't ended.
Luo Yuan drew a clear line between himself and Tang Li, vowing never to see her again.
Tang Li said, "Heaven is on my side. But when will this dream finally end?"
That night, an exceptionally handsome man appeared on Tang Li's bed--
Luo Yuan pressed against her waist, his fingers slowly brushing over her lips. "Have you had enough of your sweet dream, Princess?"
His warm breath swept over her ear, his voice sinister. "It's my turn now."
Tang Li: ...?!
The ministers, upon learning that the two had become engaged: !!!
--
Later, Luo Yuan asked Tang Li, "Is it possible that you aren't dreaming, but have been given another life?"
Tang Li replied, "Are you kidding? If this weren't a dream, you'd have chopped me into mincemeat for kissing you."
Luo Yuan: ?
Tang Li counted on her fingers. "Also, if this weren't a dream, how could I have brought down the Empress Dowager, outmaneuvered my younger brother, pacified the border and quelled the rebellion, and had every wish come true, all while living in wealth and splendor? It's like the gods are helping me."
Luo Yuan, with blood on his hands but nothing to show for it: ...
Tang Li concluded, "Dreams are great."
Luo Yuan leaned over her again and spat through clenched teeth, "...Great. Just great."
*1v1, both virgins, happy ending. Lighthearted.
