From First Wife to Concubine? She Marries the Crown Prince and Becomes Empress

[Both Reborn + Chasing His Wife to the Crematorium + Second Male Lead Takes the Lead + Marriage Before Love]

Xie Qingwei was the only daughter of Yangzhou’s richest man. The greatest hardship she ever endured in her life was being deceived into marriage by Pei Huaijin.

He was the sixth prince of the current dynasty and already had a wife, but he hid his identity and tricked Xie Qingwei into falling for him.

When his lies were exposed, he tried to sweet-talk her into becoming his concubine.

“Weiwei, I did everything because I love you too much.”

“Your status is too low. Be my concubine first. Once you’ve borne me a child or two, I’ll find a chance to ask Father to make you a secondary consort.”

Xie Qingwei found it laughable and left without hesitation.

But Pei Huaijin refused to let her go. He forcibly dragged her to his residence and imprisoned her as a concubine.

Later, afraid his scandal would come to light, he killed her parents and took all the Xie family’s wealth.

He still wanted her to bear his child.

Overwhelmed with grief, Xie Qingwei failed to assassinate Pei Huaijin. She then ended the life of the child in her womb with her own hands and followed her parents to the grave.

Heaven took pity on her and gave her another chance at life.

She promptly married the Crown Prince, finding herself a powerful ally.

Pei Huaijin was reborn.

He never expected Xie Qingwei to be reborn too, let alone marry his Crown Prince brother behind his back.

It didn’t matter. He could wait.

Once that short-lived Crown Prince was dead and gone, Pei Huaijin would inherit everything that belonged to him, including Xie Qingwei.

But year after year, after one scheme and trick after another, why was the Crown Prince still alive?

And why had he gotten Xie Qingwei pregnant?
