In her previous life, Ye Roujia went from being the little princess adored by everyone to the only surviving princess of the former dynasty, forced into a political marriage overnight.
Everyone said the new King of Dongzhao treated his niece like his own daughter. In the end, however, a single imperial decree sent her to Xiling.
She thought she was walking into a den of tigers, but he treated her with respect and love. Just as she let down her guard and devoted herself to supporting him, he put his arm around her cousin and looked at her with contempt. “General Zhao has admired you for years. Make him happy, and I'll count it as you making amends for your crimes. How does that sound?”
“Older sister, do you hate me? You and your father are both losers.”
Then, in a single turn of fate, she returns to the time before she was sent away to marry.
This time, she sees through her uncle and aunt, wolves in sheep's clothing. She will have her revenge, change who rules the empire, and hold all the power in her hands!
This time, without hesitation, she chooses the most overlooked hostage from Xiling in the palace of the King of Dongzhao. All she wants is to ensure that he never takes the throne of Xiling.
Ye Roujia: “This palace of the King of Dongzhao has trapped both you and me. How about I help you break free?”
Qi Yue: “People who offer help in fair weather are common, but those who come to your aid in a snowstorm are rare. So... what do you want from me, Princess?”
Ye Roujia: “I want Dongzhao. I want you to help me.”
A battle of wits, flirtation, and stepping into a trap by choice, as both fish and bait.
But as the act goes on, it starts to feel real...
“If the princess wants the moon in the sky, I'll risk my life to pluck it for you...”
