I was born with a bewitching physique and am a lucky star reincarnated. As long as I marry, I can ward off evil and disaster for my husband's family, and turn death into life.
So after the child my father had chosen to be my childhood husband passed the imperial exams and became the top scholar, the first thing he did when he returned home was eagerly prepare our wedding.
But I rushed straight to the Prince Regent's residence, where I spent the night as a bride bringing good fortune to the recently deceased Prince Regent, while his corpse was still stiff.
It was because my half-sister and I had been ordered by the emperor to draw lots to choose our husbands.
One of us would marry into the Prince Regent's residence to bring good fortune to the dead, and the other would marry the newly crowned top scholar.
In my previous life, I drew the top scholar as my husband.
I never expected that three days later, when the top scholar's wedding filled the city with red decorations, my half-sister would end up taking my place at the wedding ceremony after sneaking into the bridal sedan.
I rushed to the wedding and stopped the farce in time.
My half-sister refused to go to the Prince Regent's residence to bring good fortune to a corpse. In her shame and anger, she drowned herself in a lake.
And my top scholar husband went white-haired overnight.
Only later did I learn that from the very beginning, when he came to live with my family as a son-in-law, the only person he wanted to marry was my half-sister.
