Thrice Married to a Salted Fish (Novel) Vol. 3

Imperial physician Lin Qingyu and his husband, the formidable Gu Fuzhou, find their fragile domestic stability tested by the encroaching shadows of the imperial court. While Lin Qingyu remains laser-focused on dismantling the reign of his archenemy, Crown Prince Xiao Cheng, he stumbles upon a damning secret hidden within a seemingly innocuous silk belt. His pursuit of vengeance is perilous, threatening to tip the scales of power in a way that could either topple a tyrant or destroy himself.

Simultaneously, the geopolitical landscape of the Great Yu dynasty fractures. As the war in the northwest intensifies, the court demands the return of Gu Fuzhou, the only general capable of securing victory. However, Gu Fuzhou’s past scars serve as a grim reminder of the cost of duty.

He faces an agonizing dilemma: abandon his husband to return to the front lines, or remain in the capital and risk the nation’s collapse. Bound by a complex marriage that transcends political convenience, the two men must navigate a web of state secrets and battlefield horrors. Their survival depends on whether their growing devotion can withstand the weight of crown, country, and the ghosts of their shared past.
