On my eighteenth birthday, my father planned to choose a husband for me from among all the civil and military officials at court.
I had people present jade tokens and let the draw decide.
In my previous life, without hesitation, I chose Wen Muchen, heir to the Marquis of Zhenbei, whom I had loved for years. My maid, Lin Yutang, married into his household with me.
That year, when the Wen residence caught fire, I was disfigured protecting him.
Yet he was convinced that Lin Yutang had saved him. He sent me to the borderlands to be a sex slave, where I was tortured to death.
Reborn, I drew Shen Zhibai, the son of a merchant rumored to eat people.
I married into the Shen family in phoenix coronet and bridal robes, and took Wen Muchen's life as a wedding gift.
