A grand secret crush and counterattack.
In the sixteenth year of Xuanyuan, Xie Wenjun first met Chen Liangyu. Xie Wenjun remembers it was a day of brilliant sunshine—one fleeting glance, and in solitude she cherished that love for many years.
But in Chen Liangyu’s memory of that same autumn, the seemingly serene yet truly twisted and shadowed princess ranked among the top three people she least wished to approach. If avoidance was possible, she would avoid her.
For a long stretch of years, Xie Wenjun concealed her distorted emotions deep within, yet could not resist drawing closer to the one who guarded against her with utmost caution.
Xie Wenjun: “Must you really marry my third brother?” (heartbroken)
Chen Liangyu: “The Crown Prince sent her to test my stance.” (firm and resolute)
Years later, the Princess Regent delayed her marriage for the sake of national agricultural affairs. Officials, with painstaking effort, selected more than twenty consorts for her. Chen Liangyu could no longer sit still. She hurried to Xie Wenjun and declared: “My appearance is passable. I am willing to offer myself to your bed.”
One-Sentence Summary: A grand secret crush and counterattack.
Theme: If it is unprecedented in history, then let it begin with me.
