This was the story of a hero rescuing a beauty. To Princess Mingzhu, An You shone with the halo of a hero.
And a life-saving grace must of course be repaid with the body.
She was a noble princess, yet she’d so easily drop to her knees to kneel to people. She was clearly supposed to be living in the imperial palace, but she insisted on staying in the home of a subject and pressed the heavy responsibility of rebuilding Prince Yan’s legacy on a child who hadn’t even reached the age of seven while she spent her time enjoying romance.
And she even had a servant that had no sense of class status.
Ning Shu had a premonition that a wave of utter stupidity based on the name of true love was about to attack.
However, Ning Shu only really fell apart when she saw the original host’s wish, because this was what the wish looked like.
Wei Lingxian’s wish: …
There was no content at all. Fudge, if you don’t have any tasks or demands, how am I supposed to counter attack for you?
“2333, what happened?” asked Ning Shu. “What’s with Wei Lingxian’s wish?”
2333 said, “The original host doesn’t even know what she should wish for since she has so many complaints that she doesn’t even know where to begin to voice them. She had respected her mother-in-law, carefully supported the entire family so that An You wouldn’t have any worries while he was out on campaigns. Towards her two children, she was naturally so loving it doesn’t even need to be said, but she ended up with nothing. No matter how good she was towards her mother-in-law, her mother-in-law only cared about her son and her grandson and had agreed to Princess Mingzhu becoming her son’s mistress. As for her husband, after nearly twenty years of mutual love and having no mistress, he now tells her that he had found his true love. On top of all that, both her children support the mistress.”
“What wishes could a person who had lost everything wish for? Her heart’s pretty much dead.” 2333 then said, “This is a task that’s near mid-level difficulty. The tasks in which the entrustor doesn’t have any specific demands are the hardest to carry out.”
Fudge. This was the meaning of no regret for the sake of love, going mad for the sake of love, and for true love, giving up everything including family.
This task was seriously troublesome.
She scratched her head and some strands of hair fell into her hand. Every time An You set out on a campaign, the original host would wait anxiously for him to return, hardly even eating. She was always worried that something would happen to An You on the battlefield, but she still had to maintain a calm demeanor and carefully manage the entire residence.
Ning Shu got off the bed and glanced towards the copper mirror. Wei Lingxian had harmonious and dignified features. It was clear with one glance that she was a composed and generous woman who understood propriety well and look after the family skillfully. She was a woman that was capable of bringing her family to higher heights in the feudal society.
For Wei Lingxian’s sake, An You hadn’t taken any mistresses, so that had caused all the other married women in the capital to greatly envy Wei Lingxian. Wei Lingxian had once talked to An You about taking a couple mistresses, but An You had refused to.
An You, the General Who Inspires Might, ended up being called henpecked, but Wei Lingxian found it very sweet.
She never imagined that An You would actually end up going into spring heat in his old age and having undying feelings for a woman who was about the same age as her daughter. What did that make her?
The difference between humans and animals was that humans had rules and morals, responsibilities and a sense of justice. If one acted based on just instincts and did whatever they wanted, then they were just animals.
