[Reborn + revenge + household intrigue + two strong leads]
[Cold, ruthless, obsessive prince + straightforward heiress born under the Phoenix Fate]
The first time he saw her was at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival. Disguised as a man, she competed with others in a lantern-riddle contest and took first place.
The second time he saw her was at Zuixian Pavilion. Still disguised as a man, she got completely drunk with a group of people.
He went to ask for her hand in marriage, but she refused.
The reason was that a diviner had foretold she was born under the Phoenix Fate, and whoever won her hand could become emperor of all under heaven.
Later, they met briefly in Liangye City. She saved him, but neither recognized the other.
After that, the entire Yun family was convicted, and he appeared at the execution ground as the presiding official.
She hated him. She thought that because she had refused to marry him, he had framed her family in the illicit salt case to settle a personal score.
Just as the execution blade was about to fall, Prince Chen, the man who had drunk and admired the lanterns with her, brought the imperial decree declaring the Yun family innocent to the execution ground.
“Qianqian, come back with me. I’ll protect you.”
“No!” She refused without hesitation.
She walked straight up to him. “Prince Shen, do you still have the courage to marry me?”
I particularly like the heroine, who is a straight woman, not green tea or white lotus. The male protagonist is also very handsome. She looks cold and perverted, but is actually a warm man. The most important thing is that the plot is new and not mindless. I recommend it.
