“In this life, I’ll make them pay in blood!”
Yu Qingyan died on her wedding day.
Her fiancé and half sister joined forces to force her to drink poisoned wine, accuse her of treason, and have her entire family executed.
When she opened her eyes again, she had been reborn five years earlier, before any of the tragedies had begun.
In this life, she would no longer be the helpless legitimate daughter of a marquis’s household, at the mercy of others.
A poem meant to mock her at a poetry gathering? She improvised a brilliant verse that turned the tables and caught Prince Jing’s attention.
Her stepmother plotted against her? She turned the scheme to her advantage and exposed the scoundrel in public.
A plague ravaged the land? She offered a remedy to save lives and quietly cultivated ties with powerful officials of the future.
As she plotted each step and swore to take revenge, she stumbled into a pair of unfathomable eyes.
Why did Prince Jing, Xiao Jingheng, the cold-blooded God of War of legend, always appear when she was in danger?
He took her hand. “With the realm as our game board, will you join me in moving the pieces?”
“What I want is more than revenge. I want a world where no one would dare hurt the people I hold dear!”
