(1V1, two equally powerful leads, marriage before love, political scheming, life as a princess consort, reborn)
In her previous life, Song Nanzhi was blinded by love. She severed ties with her family to marry a poor scholar.
But after he came first in the imperial examinations, he had her killed so he could curry favor with a princess.
Reborn, Song Nanzhi immediately decides to take revenge on the scoundrel. Using the leverage she has, she sets her sights on becoming empress.
A scheming younger sister, biased parents, an arrogant princess... None of them frighten her. She can handle them on her own.
What she never expected was that her husband would be the one thing she hadn't accounted for.
When Song Nanzhi married him, she knew they were only using each other.
She just never imagined that this calculating man wanted far more than that.
His tests, schemes, and retreats are all driven by the love he keeps hidden in his heart.
Love... Song Nanzhi thinks she never wants to love again in this life.
But the man says casually, “Princess Consort, remember when you once told me to follow you? It seems I took a wrong turn.”
It's quite nice, not overly descriptive, I like it very much.
Nice! It's not a loss if you fall into the trap.
