Five Years as a Substitute Bride in the Marquis's Household, Then the New Emperor Turns Out to Be Her Ex-Husband

[Captive Love / Both Reborn / Mad Dog Emperor vs. Sweet Little Flower Who Knows How to Tame Him] In the fifth year after Lu Yinzhu took her elder sister’s place and married into the Jiangyang Marquis’s household, Prince Jing, Yan Wei, ascended the throne. No one knew she had once been his Princess Jing, standing by him as he rose from humble beginnings to the highest seat in the realm. In the end, she watched her family perish with her own eyes, her heart turning cold as she took her own life. After being reborn, she thought that marrying someone else would ensure they never crossed paths again. But he had been reborn too, in the very fifth year of her marriage into the marquis’s household. “You hid for five years, and still ended up back at my side?” The new emperor, Yan Wei, looked at her with a chilling gaze and a dangerous tone. Lu Yinzhu lowered her eyes. “Your Majesty, we belong to the past…” “Divorced.” “This subject’s wife and the marquis are deeply in lo…” Yan Wei scoffed. “So deeply in love that he’s kept an empty bed for five years?” He didn’t know she had already divorced the marquis, and she was even less willing to tell him the truth, hoping to provoke him. He pressed her at every turn until she had nowhere left to retreat, his fingertips brushing her cheek. “Five years, A Zhu. You even lied to me when you died.” Lu Yinzhu turned her face away. “Your Majesty, if you seize me by force, won’t you become someone the whole world despises as cruel and unjust?” Yan Wei chuckled softly, his scorching breath against her earlobe. “They call me a man who can’t tolerate his own kin and wipes them out to the last. I’ve long since earned the whole world’s condemnation, so one more charge makes no difference.” He would make her understand that even if this little bird flew to the ends of the earth, he could still catch her and bring her back.
