The simplest summary of "Unable to Distinguish Right from Wrong"
Although he does not share the surname Huangfu, upon seeing her, he feels an irresistible urge, wanting to make things difficult for her at every turn, to break her spirit and cut off her escape routes, leaving her pitifully kneeling at his feet, kissing his toes
The story begins with Ruan Dong faking his death, subsequently descending to the status of a commoner, and marks the beginning of a love story that unfolds after his separation from Dongfang Fei
A long time ago, in a dynasty that has been submerged by history, there was a young woman with the surname Ruan. In pursuit of her grand ambitions, she purchased an official position and became the second Meng Lijun.
Unexpectedly, over the years, they cultivated relationships in the court that were both adversarial and friendly, both brotherly and fraternal, both paternal and filial (because they hoped for her growth) and so on
The scene of humiliation played out repeatedly in her mind, and she indulged in her fantasies, yet there was no time to act upon them (this is indeed a lifelong regret for the Eastern individual). Just then, someone attempted to preemptively break her spirit. The powerful and possessive chief minister was furious, and thus, inadvertently, he helped her a few times out of sheer obligation. For the young sprout to thrive and grow, it must be trampled down hard, which would bring him continuous pleasure.
In summary, the overly complicated emotions made it difficult for him to let go. He would not allow her to keep a male lover, yet he was unwilling for her to become merely his bed warmer (it was too wasteful). In a situation where her life was uncertain, the great demon finally admitted that from the moment he first saw her, his heart raced. He both wanted to ravage her and could not bear to see her suffer; it turned out to be love at first sight
In the current dynasty, there was a handsome and wicked prime minister, a great villain who delighted in manipulating people's hearts and was destined to be infamous for eternity. Upon discovering the presence of Deputy Minister Ruan, whose bones were as unyielding as diamonds, he became so excited that he could not sleep at night, secretly drooling a whole jar, fantasizing about biting through her bones piece by piece to consume her noble and righteous essence.
Thus, standing at a lofty position in the world, he would rather give up the tasteless riches and glory than challenge the most difficult thing to attain in the world—this selfless love that Ruan Donggu has devoted (of course, this also excites him to the point of restlessness, planning every night, wishing he could directly swallow her whole)
It can also be said that this is a love story of an unmarried couple
Of course, it can also be said that it is a story of love that the East cannot attain
