--You protected me before. This time, it's my turn--
Previous life.
Jiang Che was an orphan with no one to rely on. After studying hard for ten years, he passed the imperial exams and entered the court, where he met the love of his life. But their statuses were worlds apart. As a low-ranking official, he was powerless to change their fate, and spent the rest of his life in misery.
She was a princess of the reigning dynasty, destined to become a tool in the emperor's marriage alliance to secure his position. She had already accepted her fate, but a chance encounter made her want to run away. Why had Heaven made her meet the love of her life just as she was drifting through life in a daze? A man as beautiful as jade, a gentleman without equal. She tried to break free, to resist, to grow stronger, all so she could stay by his side. But things did not go as she wished. In the end, she died in the arms of the man she loved most, praying that in their next lives they might each find peace.
