When Ruoxi Was Granted a Marriage in the Main Hall, Reborn to Rewrite Her Fate

Lan Lan, the legitimate daughter of a noble family from another dynasty, transmigrates amid the chaos of war into the era of Maertai Ruoxi. Carrying Ruoxi's memories and knowing how history will unfold, she is shocked, but quickly changes Ruoxi's fate of defying the emperor's order and rejecting an arranged marriage. Instead, she accepts the marriage bestowed by Emperor Kangxi, turning her fate around.

In her previous life, Ruoxi defied Kangxi's decree and incurred his wrath. After falling out of favor, she struggled to survive in the palace. Eunuchs and maids treated her with open contempt, her ties with the princes fell apart, the Eighth Prince looked down on her, and the Fourteenth Prince was powerless to change anything. Caught in the storm of the struggle among the nine princes for the throne, she knew too many secrets and became an object of suspicion to every faction. As her old friends drifted away in the vortex of power, love remained out of reach. After enduring years of torment in body and mind, she finally died in despair, a tragic example of how little control a weak woman in the ancient palace had over her own fate.

But Lan Lan is not like Ruoxi. Though she holds the key to changing history, she chooses to follow its course. After all, in her previous life as the daughter of a powerful family, she learned how insignificant one person is in the tide of history, and that past glories vanish like passing clouds. Carrying Ruoxi's unfulfilled hopes, Lan Lan relies on her intelligence and courage to navigate the complex palace and court politics along history's predetermined path. She carefully handles the various factions and skillfully defuses suspicion, striving to find safety and peace for herself and those around her amid a life fraught with danger. Clear-eyed and resilient, she writes a new chapter for Maertai Ruoxi, hoping to shine in her own way between the cracks of history and discover another possibility for life in this turbulent age.
