[Pairing: gentle, breathtakingly beautiful bottom × iron-blooded, ruthless God of War top]
Ye Yunting, the unfavored legitimate son of a duke's household, was granted by imperial decree in marriage to Li Fengqi, the Prince of Eternal Peace, as his consort.
The Prince of Eternal Peace guarded the northern frontier and had slain countless enemies. He was, beyond dispute, Northern Radiance's God of War.
Yet by the time Ye Yunting married into his household, the God of War had already been poisoned. His meridians were shattered, and he could do nothing but lie in bed, clinging to the last threads of life.
Ye Yunting entered the marriage with his heart already dead. Terrified by the God of War's fearsome reputation, he hid away in his own courtyard and simply drifted through the days. Not long afterward, he accidentally drank a bowl of poisoned soup meant for the Prince of Eternal Peace and died.
Before his death, the Prince of Eternal Peace—who was supposedly on the verge of dying himself—knelt beside his bed, held his hand, and solemnly promised, “You lost your life because of me. From this day forward, I will do everything in my power to protect your family. Go in peace.”
Later, he ascended the throne and truly kept his promise, protecting Ye Yunting's only family member.
Given another life, Ye Yunting still could not escape the fate of marrying the Prince of Eternal Peace to ward off his misfortune. This time, however, he decided to care properly for the dying man and repay the kindness from his previous life.
He never expected that, once the man had rid himself of the poison, he would impatiently drag Ye Yunting off to consummate their marriage.
Held tightly in the man's arms, Ye Yunting felt warm breath brush his ear. “Stay with me without fear. From now on, I'll protect you.”
★Reading Guide★
1. A one-on-one sweet romance. In both lifetimes, the top and bottom have only each other.
2. Yes, it starts with another old trope. If this is a deal-breaker for you, don't read it. The author simply loves this kind of thing. If you don't enjoy it, please stop in time instead of making both yourself and the author suffer. Seriously.
3. The dynastic setting is a patchwork, and there are mountains of author-created details. Please do not scrutinize it for historical accuracy.
