After Qu Qing was reborn, all she wanted was to help Song Ran build his career. She played pitiful and schemed, and even when she became a widow, she never complained about her lot. She only wanted to watch Song Ran coast to success.
Lately, everything had been going suspiciously well for Song Ran. When things seem too good to be true, something must be up. He investigated, only to discover that the one behind it all was the widow from the Zhao family.
She was a threat. She had to die.
At the instant a sword’s edge pressed against her throat, he was reborn! The person he had protected with his life in his previous life was now at his mercy, a knife at her neck. Behind him, his own concubines were urging him to strike. The prince’s mind was blown!
From then on, the whole capital watched as the decisive Prince of Jin showered the Zhao family widow with kindness every day, even caring for her posthumous child as if it were his own. He said he couldn’t let a loyal subject’s heart grow cold.
A loyal subject? The Zhao family man was only a provincial graduate when he died!
