The mute Huo Wanjian married Ling Yang, the disgraced crown prince.
A fallen prince married a mute woman and was banished to Lingnan. Surely he could no longer cause trouble.
Three years later, the exiled prince returned to Chang'an with the mute woman at his side, seized the throne, and became emperor.
People said Huo Wanjian was lucky, never knowing how hard she had worked in Lingnan just to keep Ling Yang alive.
At first, Ling Yang detested her and even wished they could die together. Only after they reached Lingnan did her unblemished sincerity slowly move him.
At the height of their love, Ling Yang once held her close and vowed between ragged breaths, "As long as I can be with my A-Jiang, I'll gladly spend my whole life as an ordinary man."
Later, he broke his promise. The mountains and seas of Lingnan could not keep the golden-scaled dragon from Chang'an at bay. He returned to the position that had always been his.
The first thing Ling Yang did after returning to Chang'an was bring his beloved into the palace.
Yet he told Huo Wanjian that she was the wife he had chosen for life.
Then she heard him pour out his longing to his beloved, and even make a promise with his own lips: "I won't let you suffer, and I won't allow a mute woman to trample you underfoot."
An emperor's heart could never be warmed by someone incomplete. She refused to remain the empress of a heartless monster.
Huo Wanjian "died in childbirth" and escaped the prison that was Chang'an.
She never imagined that once she was "dead," the young emperor would go mad and personally slaughter everyone who had ever bullied her.
So what? It had nothing to do with her anymore.
Five years later, the emperor made a secret visit to Yunzhong and encountered a woman who looked just like someone from his past.
In a daze, he called out, "A-Jiang."
The woman turned around, her voice sweeter than heavenly music. "You must have mistaken me for someone else, sir."
Ling Yang's eyes reddened. He had nearly forgotten: his A-Jiang could not speak.

The characters are vivid, with shadows of historical figures, and the writing is sincere. I hope the author will update it more.
Beautiful, exciting, I like it
I really don't want to see their relationship break down again because of Huo Suzhi. The early stage was too cruel.
After reading more than 130 chapters, I feel that it is well written and the author has clear ideas. The story development and conflict rhythms are well grasped. The emotions are delicate, and the male protagonist gradually grows up and his character is very layered. The most rare thing is that although the heroine is mute, both the male and female protagonists feel "longer mouthed" than expected, at least 9 points, which is lower.
