Su Qingluo was stunningly beautiful and the most talented woman in the capital, yet she fell for an impoverished duke.
For love, she publicly broke off her engagement, turned against her father, and insisted on marrying the man she loved.
Only when all four of her limbs were broken, her father was poisoned to death, and her own child died before her eyes did she see through the schemes of the man beside her and her half-sister.
She regretted it. If she hadn't stubbornly gone her own way, how could her family have been destroyed?
She resented it. The man she'd entrusted with her whole heart had turned out to be the one who sealed her doom.
Reborn, she awoke and could only sigh with relief that Heaven had finally opened its eyes.
Her father's concubine wanted to seize the family fortune? She'd let her.
Her half-sister wanted to marry into a powerful family? She'd help her.
The scoundrel wanted a career in government? She'd give him a leg up.
She cast aside love and affection, intent only on seeing her revenge through to the end.
But when she was driven to the brink, she suddenly uncovered a secret she'd never known in her previous life.
The prince whose engagement she'd broken, whom she'd wronged and whom the capital had mocked, had given everything for her.
