[Marriage Before Love] [Substitute Bride with a Twist] [Two Powerful Leads Join Forces] [All-Consuming Devotion] [A Satisfying Revenge Story]
From the start, I take my enemy’s daughter’s place as the Regent Prince’s bride, with a poisoned hairpin hidden in my sleeve, ready for us to die together.
He knows my identity from the start. He marries me to protect my life, and has been plotting in secret for seven years.
He burns the Grand Tutor’s household’s poisons in front of everyone. “No one else gets to worry about my princess consort.”
I slap his secondary consort, and he backs me up. “Well done. Does your hand hurt?”
When the real daughter returns to the capital and tries to seize the throne, he says coldly, “There has only ever been one Princess Consort to me: Gu Zhiwei.”
When the Empress Dowager poisons me, he massacres everyone in the Palace of Compassion and Tranquility. “Anyone who harms her will have their entire clan executed.”
The truth: On the night of the palace coup, he shields me, covered in blood, and hands over conclusive evidence to clear my name.
“That’s enough of this act, Princess Consort. Let’s go home.”
It turns out the cruelest political schemes hide the deepest love.
