Reborn + marriage swap + household intrigue + sweet romance + devoted love + both leads are chaste
As the second legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an's household, Xie Jitang was never favored. Her parents doted on her older sister and casually betrothed her to Ji Xian, a scholar from a poor family.
No one expected that Xie Wanning, the eldest legitimate daughter who was supposed to marry Prince Jin in a grand wedding, would become a widow on her wedding day.
Meanwhile, Xie Jitang's husband passed the highest imperial examination with top honors, enjoyed a smooth official career, and even won her a noble title.
Reborn, Xie Jitang hears her older sister making a fuss about marrying Ji Xian.
Her sister says, “Zhao Xuan will die young. I refuse to marry him! Our parents love me, and Xie Jitang is only good enough to take what I don’t want.”
Xie Jitang sneers. Ji Xian treated her cruelly in her previous life, so if her sister wants to steal this marriage, she can have it.

Her sister gets the marriage she wants, while Xie Jitang packs up and heads straight to Prince Jin’s residence without looking back.
There, she meets Zhao Xuan, the Prince of Jin, whom everyone calls arrogant and utterly overbearing.
Zhao Xuan lifts an aloof brow. Rubbing his jade ring, he grabs her chin and pulls her close.
“Xie Atang, aren’t you afraid of dying?”
Xie Jitang obediently rests her face in his palm, her beauty like a flower. “Your Highness, ever since I married you, I’ve never been afraid.”

After her wedding, Xie Wanning spends her days waiting for Zhao Xuan to die and for Xie Jitang to become the poor widow.
But she waits and waits, until Zhao Xuan proves harder to kill than ever and Xie Jitang takes the throne as empress!
The Xie family of the Marquis of Wu'an bitterly regrets its choices. Xie Wanning, whose beloved has become nothing more than a grain of rice, grits her teeth and kneels in humiliation, addressing Xie Jitang as “Your Majesty, the Empress.”
It's a waste of your rebirth quota.
It's just average, and there aren't any big problems overall, but I just feel that the plot is a bit slow, and I just don't have the desire to continue watching it.
Good looking 👍
