[Complete]
When Yingzhu was six, she was brought to the Cen residence, where she gained two older brothers.
They were equally handsome and tall, both excelling in the arts of war and letters, but their personalities could not have been more different. Yingzhu could always tell them apart, never once making a mistake.
Cen Zhuoyu was composed and proper, refined and gentle. He treasured her and doted on her, personally taking care of everything that concerned her.
Xie Jichuan was wild and unruly, arrogant and willful. He was always threatening to expose her secrets, pulling her pigtails, and ordering her to serve him tea. He was a little tyrant even more troublesome than she was.
Yingzhu had secretly loved Cen Zhuoyu for years. After her hairpin ceremony, she worked up the courage to confess her feelings, only to see his awkwardness and disappointment.
The young girl's heart shattered. She hid in the garden and wept, only to have Xie Jichuan block her path. His chest was solid, and he advanced step by step, trapping her in a corner.
“Why are you crying? If Big Brother doesn't want you, I do.” He looked down at her, a lazy smile playing at the corner of his eyes. “Besides, my big brother and I look exactly alike. What's the difference which one of us you choose?”
She stubbornly bit her lip. “I don't want you.”
The young man's gaze turned cold, but his smile only deepened. “What, are you scared?”
After enduring Xie Jichuan's bullying for so long, Yingzhu refused to back down. In a fit of pique, she agreed.
And so, while still unmarried and living under her family's roof, she brazenly sneaked around with Xie Jichuan behind everyone's back, doing all sorts of wicked things. She even agreed to marry him.
On her wedding day, she finally let go of Cen Zhuoyu and decided to give Xie Jichuan her whole heart.
But on their wedding night, she found him greedy and fierce, relentlessly conquering her until she begged him softly to stop. He was nothing like his usual gentle, clingy self, who took things slowly and gradually.
Yingzhu thought it was just part of their bedroom games and never suspected a thing.
One day, she accidentally saw Cen Zhuoyu changing. A ring of bite marks, red and provocative, circled his shoulder… By chance, the previous night, when she had been exhausted and begging for mercy, she had bitten Xie Jichuan in the same place…
When had the person beside her in bed been switched?
Who had been the one to speak of love and share a wedding cup with her?
Had she ever really been able to tell them apart?

Upcoming: The Third Year of a Prestigious Marriage. Please follow!
A dutiful wife × a sanctimonious brother-in-law × a devoted younger man with a wolfish streak
In the third year of her prestigious marriage, her husband took a mistress and stopped coming home at night.
Liang Yufu was a virtuous wife who would never presume to criticize her husband. She managed the entire Gu household without complaint, quietly seeking out a young, strong stable hand to relieve her loneliness.
The stable hand's love was passionate. He spent day and night showering her with pleasure, and his sweet words gradually won her heart. Unwilling to ruin his youth and afraid their affair would be discovered, she arranged for him to be freed from servitude and leave the household to make a future for himself.
Before leaving, he clung to her lips, reluctant to let her go. “When I return, I'll come for you with eight sedan chairs and ask you to marry me.”
Liang Yufu laughed at his foolish devotion, taking it for a joke.
The next day, her husband fell into the water and drowned, leaving no body behind.
*
Liang Yufu observed the prescribed mourning for her late husband. She had every luxury, yet spent her nights alone.
Seeing how heartbroken she was, her family sent her to recuperate at a Daoist temple, where she would care for the eldest Gu brother, who had been confined there by the emperor to reflect on his mistakes.
Her brother-in-law was upright and proper. Dressed in flowing Daoist robes, he was ethereal and handsome. One glance was enough to stir Liang Yufu's heart and set her pulse racing.
Having already tasted love, how could she endure widowhood?
That very night, wearing only a thin robe, she knocked on his door. “My husband died young, and I have no children. From now on, my only support will be my brother-in-law…”
Gu Huaizhen was cool-headed and stern. He glanced at the soft, jade-like hand she had laid against him, then sat perfectly composed. “My younger brother's wife is a chaste widow. You must show restraint before the Perfected One.”
For the next several days, no matter how gentle and considerate she was or how low she stooped to entice him, even hanging her bodice outside his window, Gu Huaizhen pretended not to notice.
Liang Yufu's heart grew cold. She turned to flirt with a young Daoist, and they were about to become lovers when Gu Huaizhen caught them in bed. He drove the Daoist away, tore her clothes, and scolded her for having no shame, before making love to her on the bed and cherishing her a thousand times over.
He was soon released from his confinement and returned home to inherit responsibility for both branches of the family. In broad daylight, he climbed into her bed. “I'll give you a child. Stop seducing other men. You have to observe a woman's virtue.”
As time went on, he seemed to live in her courtyard, keeping her in bed until she could hardly get up.
*
At first, Gu Huaizhen pitied her loneliness and feared she would bring shame on the Gu family by getting involved with someone else. Later, he fell deeply in love and could no longer let her go.
He was about to ask the family for permission to marry her when a new favorite at court came to propose, offering a huge bride price and using his power to pressure the family. He intended to carry Yufu off in an eight-person sedan chair.
In a panic, Gu Huaizhen tried even harder to please her in bed and swore again and again until he finally persuaded Yufu to stay with the Gu family and marry him instead.
Just as the wedding approached, his supposedly dead younger brother returned.
Theme: Companionship is the longest-lasting declaration of love.
Ah? ? I originally thought that there was a limit to the life-and-death struggle between brothers, but in the end, they were really running for their lives? ? 1V2 is not just about two people who love each other, but they also have to let go of their possessiveness for love. This ending is too hard to accept, right? [Changed]
Haven't the plot of the copywriting been written yet?
It ended too suddenly [split][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack][crack]
My brother is too bad, my mother, my second brother's hand [crying] [crying] [crying]
This is my brother, right? (Just guessing) [dog head]
Ouch, the second brother is so miserable, but the title belongs to the second brother, hehe.
Oh yo! Cen Da no longer pretends to be 13 [changed] Xie Er has been busy for a long time and is about to achieve success. I want you to cut off the nonsense.
Looking forward to Shura Field, the second brother will definitely find it later [dog head] [dog head] [dog head]
Is this considered bad? Inexplicably, the entire text suddenly came to an end, and I felt like I was getting more confused as I went to the end😅😅
My younger brother is going to the capital to report his elder brother?
