After I Stopped Competing for the Crown Prince’s Favor, My Consort Rival and I Went on a Rampage

In my previous life, the Crown Prince's cousin, Liu Yuhua, and I married into the Eastern Palace on the same day. But on our wedding night, the Crown Prince never came to my courtyard, his principal wife's residence. That humiliation made me hate Liu Yuhua for years. We hated each other. She caused me to miscarry, so I forced her to drink an abortifacient, leaving her unable to have children. Claiming he had no heir, the Crown Prince raised Qingshuang, the wet nurse's daughter, to the rank of secondary consort. From then on, Qingshuang was the most favored woman in the Eastern Palace. The Crown Prince spent every night in her courtyard, and the three of us fought like our lives depended on it. When the Crown Prince ascended the throne, neither Liu Yuhua nor I had any children, so Qingshuang naturally took her place as empress. But on the eve of her coronation ceremony, she suddenly died. Liu Yuhua and I were accused of poisoning the empress and both banished to the Cold Palace. Just as we were waiting to die, an unexpected woman pushed open the Cold Palace door, holding the child Qingshuang had left behind. “You called yourselves noble ladies, but in the end, you were nothing more than stepping-stones for me.” When I opened my eyes again, I was back on my wedding day.
