Red Dust From Every Side (Love in Red Dust)

Original Title: Red Dust From Every Side “Hong Chen Si He” (红尘四合)

Desciption:

Although being an executioner may sound scary, it was actually just a means of earning a living.

When the Wen family’s eldest daughter, Wen Dingyi, was a young girl, her father committed a crime. Suddenly, their rich life seemed to be a pipe dream. Only she remained, rescued by her wet nurse, after family members either perished or were banished.

To survive, Dingyi disguised herself as a boy and became an apprentice of Wu Changgeng, the most famous executioner in Shuntian Prefecture. Through the changing seasons, she grew to the age of seventeen.

One day, she accidentally offended the Seventh Prince. As a member of the royal family, he viewed her as nothing more than an ant. Just as Dingyi was about to be dragged away and executed, a man strolled over and with a few casual words, saved her life.

He wore a stone-blue official robe embroidered with coiled dragons, his figure tall and elegant, his profile like finely carved jade. His air of superiority left an indelible impression on her.

Much later, Dingyi once asked him about his first impression of her. He raised an eyebrow and said, “Short, effeminate, standing under the scorching sun tilting your head and squinting like a fool.”
