The Cold-Hearted Prince’s Captive Consort

She was his consort, yet he locked her away in a dark chamber. She was his childhood sweetheart and wife, yet he force-fed her an abortion drug and sent her to her death. Reborn, she endured the same abuse, and worse. In front of a crowd, he ignored her pain and abandoned her in a prison cell. He smeared her good name, ignored her pleas, had her feet broken, and imprisoned her. She hated him to the core. What kind of man was he? For her, this ruler, who was usually so cruel to her, faced an army of three hundred thousand without so much as a change in expression and tore up the declaration calling for his defeat. For her, he defied the entire court, willingly bearing the accusation of killing his brother and father, and put her back on the throne as empress despite the world's opposition. She was a fairy with broken wings. He would become an emperor of a glorious age, riding forth to conquer the heavens. He said, “Even if I have to give up everything, I will never let you leave me. Don't even think about taking a single step away. Even in death, I will share a tomb with you. You, Zhuang Yichu, have no choice in this life.” She sneered. “So what?” They say nothing is worse than a heart that has died. For her, no words could be more fitting. So she threw herself from the towering cliff. A cry of anguish tore through the air above the cliff, while her tears fell deep within her heart. It wasn't that she didn't want to know, or that she didn't care. She was simply tired and no longer wanted to pursue the truth. Three years later, in a remote village, a woman stood by the window. Her eyes showed the wear of time. They had lost some of their sparkle, but gained a certain depth. “Woman.” The icy voice behind her made her tremble. Before she could turn around, a strong pair of arms enveloped her. For some inexplicable reason, her eyes reddened. “I told you, even in death, you would share a tomb with me. You have no choice in this life, you wicked woman.” [[[[]]]]]] [[[[[]]]]] [Disclaimer: Let me make this perfectly clear: this is an angsty novel, so bring your emotional armor before you dive in.
