The Phoenix’s Cry Across the Land: The Princess Consort in His Highness’s Palm

In her previous life, Qiao Chiyu was the legitimate daughter of the prime minister’s household, and she gave her heart to the wrong man. On her wedding night, her husband, the Third Prince, and her white-lotus stepsister teamed up to poison her. Her maternal family was wiped out, and she died full of hatred. When she opens her eyes again, she has returned to three days before the turning point of her fate.

In this life, she rises from the ashes, vowing to repay blood with blood. Outwardly, she is still the gentle, fragile fish in the pond; within, she is a strategist, planning every move. She foils conspiracies, reclaims her dowry, and exposes hypocrisy, all while quietly building her own intelligence network and business empire amid the power struggles.

She will be the fisher holding the rod, drawing out one by one the fiends who once dragged her into the abyss, then grinding them to dust.

Just as she thinks she will live only for revenge, Jiang Linye, the Sixth Prince rumored to be cold-blooded and heartless, forcefully enters her world. He sees through every disguise she wears and protects her when she is in danger, reserving all his tenderness for her alone. From exploiting each other to entrusting each other with their lives, he promises her, “I offer you this empire as my bride price. I want both the realm and you.”

The household power struggles are treacherous, and the court is swept by political storms. Qiao Chiyu and Jiang Linye join forces as equals, rooting out corrupt officials and unraveling mysteries as they embark on a thrilling path through the world of political intrigue. Once all their enemies have been brought to justice, she finally lets go of her hatred and ascends with him to the highest throne, ushering in an era of peace and prosperity.
