[Female-dominated world]
Pei Siheng was the star male courtesan of the pleasure houses, a man whose single smile could stir the hearts of all. With a face as beautiful as jade, he captivated everyone from silver-haired old women to young girls just budding into womanhood.
Yan Ning'er was the eldest princess, enjoying the emperor's utmost favor. Willful and spoiled, she never let anyone get away with being in the wrong, and could make trouble even when she had no cause.
She couldn't bear to let such extraordinary beauty fall into the mundane world and become a spectacle for other women, so she went to great lengths to force him into her residence and make him her “caged bird.”
She never imagined that while she coveted his breathtaking looks and enticing body, he wanted her life!
He was adored in the princess's residence, yet in truth he was the last surviving descendant of the previous dynasty, burdened by a blood feud and dreaming of overthrowing the imperial throne.
His heart was cold as iron. Even a stone might have warmed to her, but he remained aloof and distant, refusing even to let her hold his hand.
Only when she stood resolutely atop the city wall, as the wind swept everything away, did his face finally show unprecedented panic and helplessness.
Then her soul journeyed to the underworld, but he still refused to let her go. He used forbidden magic to defy heaven and turn back time!
Never expected that, did you? She was reborn with her memories intact!
In this new life, everything was different. Yet the rogue refused to follow the usual script. He shed his former coldness and arrogance, becoming tender and affectionate as he clung to her without end.
Fortunes had turned, and times had changed. Now she wanted his life, while he craved her body...
Pei Siheng: The Princess Consort loves me to the bone.
Yan Ning'er: Kill this bastard.
