The War-Hawk General's Spoiled Favorite: His First Wife

“If I’m ever reborn, I’ll wipe out the entire Anyang Marquis estate and send you, An Jingnian, to the eighteenth level of hell, where you’ll never be reborn!” As she lay dying, Ye Chujian swore an oath to the heavens, her eyes refusing to close. She could not imagine that the person she had loved so deeply would wear such a gentle mask while destroying her family and her country, step by step. After forcing her to watch her loved ones die one by one, he personally cast her into hell with a cup of poisoned wine, killing both her and the child she carried. Perhaps her resentment was too strong. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to childhood, to a time before any of it had begun. She vowed to stop everything, make things right, and make An Jingnian pay. But why did some things seem to have changed? An Jingnian said, “Chujian, I’ve loved you since the first moment I saw you. Will you marry me?” For her, he would rather give up the whole world. She curled her lips into a smile. “An Jingnian, from the first moment I saw you, I…” The anticipation in his eyes was unmistakable. “You what?” She laughed softly. “I didn’t like you!” Lian Xiting said, “Chujian, His Majesty has ordered me to inherit the title of Prince of Wu and lead the army to put down the rebellion in the Meng Kingdom.” Chujian glanced at the demonic brat who had bullied her day in and day out. At last, he’s leaving, she thought. But aloud, she congratulated him: “Congratulations!” “Congratulations to you, too!” Lian Xiting nodded. “What are you congratulating me for?” Chujian asked, puzzled. “I told the emperor that if he wanted me to lead the troops into battle, he had to issue an imperial decree granting our marriage and marrying you to me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t go! So you’re going to marry me. Congratulations, congratulations!” Lian Xiting looked thoroughly pleased with himself. Chujian’s face darkened. Gritting her teeth, she said, “I’ll defy the imperial decree!” “Chujian, the fate of the entire Yuanfeng Dynasty rests in your hands. Are you sure you want to defy the imperial decree?”
