Because of an accident, he devised a plan to defeat the enemy in a battle, and his name became known throughout the land. From then on, he rose rapidly through the ranks, eventually becoming the head of all officials. Later, he even orchestrated a coup, overthrowing the biggest villain in the original work, the heroine's own brother, and becoming the first regent of a different surname.
He met Zi Linglong in that battle and fell in love at first sight. He then helped her with her plans and, after becoming regent, he paved the way for her. In the end, he died trying to save her.
He was the only man who remained outside the Mary Sue heroine's harem. Even when the whole world mocked the heroine for taking ten husbands, he stood up and killed more than a dozen ministers and their families, using ruthless methods to create the grand scene of the heroine's ten-mile-long red bridal procession and her taking ten husbands.
But ironically, he wasn't included in this; he remained unmoved by the female lead's various attempts to seduce him.
Now, let's talk about the woman Xia Yixin is currently possessing.
The bad news is that she is indeed a married woman, but the good news is that she is Chu Mubai's wife. However, the original owner's marriage was a conspiracy.
The original owner of this body was Xia Yixin, the only daughter of the deceased General Xia Chen. She had always guarded the border with her father, living a carefree life. She was exceptionally skilled in martial arts, a woman who was just as capable as any man, and even had her own cavalry.
Five years ago, after the death of the general, 15-year-old Xia Yixin was taken back to the capital by her uncle, Minister Xia of the Ministry of Personnel, and has lived a life of dependence ever since.
Moreover, there was a scheming cousin in the household who had been openly and secretly ostracizing her. Minister Xia turned a blind eye and dragged it out for 5 years, hoping that she would become an old maid and marry off to an ordinary family. However, the old lady of the Grand Tutor's family suddenly asked the Empress Dowager for favor and asked to find a wife for her eldest son, Chu Mubai, to bring him good luck. She said that she had listened to an old fortune teller and that the wife must be surnamed Xia.
Minister Xia only had one daughter, so he was naturally reluctant to part with her. Thus, the original owner of the body, Xia Yixin, was tied up and forced to marry Chu Mubai in place of her cousin.
The original owner was proud and had actually met Prince Rui of the Northern Underworld Kingdom at the border. She couldn't forget him and looked down on the sickly Chu Mubai. On the first night of her marriage, she challenged Chu Mubai to a drinking contest. As a result, Chu's old illness relapsed and he vomited blood. As a result, the old lady of the Chu family not only whipped her three times but also beat her twenty times and made her kneel in the ancestral hall. She "caught a cold" and fainted.
At this point, Xia Yixin replaced her.
So today is the second day of her marriage to the male supporting character Chu Mubai. She is confined to the West Garden, while the male supporting character Chu Mubai is being treated by the imperial physician in the East Garden.
