The Chief Minister Begged to Marry the Marquis's Widow

Lin Qianyue only found out when she was on the brink of death.

Her husband had faked his death.

The absurd part was that everyone in the world knew the truth except her!

She had secured a chastity arch for her husband's family and lived alone in misery for the rest of her life.

Meanwhile, her husband had settled down with his mistress in the outskirts of the capital.

They stayed together until their hair turned white and had a house full of children and grandchildren!

Her in-laws had even stolen her money to help the pair of scoundrels.

Lin Qianyue said, "You eat my food, drink my water, and treat me like a fool!"

But!

She was reborn.

She returned to the day her husband was being laid to rest.

She sneaked into her mother-in-law's room and switched out the antidote that could have saved her husband's life.

Gritting her teeth, she said, "Qi Huai, just die."

Afterward,

her mother-in-law nearly cried herself to death as she clutched her husband's corpse.
