Eastern Romances

A good brother was troubled by the need to break off a marriage engagement,
After drinking, the young Marquis of Marquis Duanjing Residence, Yan Qing, was willing to take a stab for his good brother, "It's just a woman, right? I'll marry her!"
When the alcohol wore off, he looked at Ling Hua who had come to find him—
He regretted it so much his guts turned green!
At the age of thirteen, Ling Hua struck the complaint drum to bring a lawsuit to the Emperor's attention, daring to risk her life by dragging down the Crown Prince's Grand Tutor's family from power, saving the entire Ling Family and thus making a name for herself in the Capital City. Three years later, she reorganized the Ling Family, firmly grasping it in her hands, leaving no one able to shake it.
Every time Yan Qing mentioned her, he sighed with emotion, thankful he didn't marry this woman.
—In the end, he married her!

Yan Qing: A young man holding a grasp of the crisp breeze, intoxicating the verdant courtyard with the fragrance of orchids for miles
Ling Hua: Stained by the color of Begonia from Qiyun Mountain, worthy of plucking a single bloom to hasten the adornment of makeup

Laying It On Thick

Xiao Ze silently finished reading Zhao Jiang's memorial and handed it to the Emperor. He really couldn't display the urgency and heart-wrenching distress one would expect for a brother who had been ambushed and forced into the Barrier Poison Forest, lost without a trace. He and Xiao Zhen didn't share that kind of bond; over the years, Xiao Zhen had been too insignificant. If he was the natural moon, then Xiao Zhen was but a speck of dust; he wasn't worthy of Xiao Ze's concern.


Moreover, he was well aware that even if he did show such concern, the Emperor wouldn't believe it.


Thus, he could only speak with gravity, "Father, should someone be sent to look for my second brother? The traitor is truly bold and audacious, daring to assassinate the empire's second Prince. Your Majesty must order a thorough investigation to find the murderer and have him cut to pieces a thousand times over."
