[Prince and Princess + Rebirth + Revenge + Marriage first, love later]
Ruan Yaoguang, a noble daughter of Yunji Prefecture, was framed by her concubine and her husband's family in her previous life, and was buried by Bai Ling. After wandering for five years, his soul was reborn back to the time when he fell into the water at the age of eighteen. Determined to take revenge, she regained her mother's misappropriated dowry and reorganized the Gu family business; on the other hand, she formed an ally with Li Huaizhou, the also reborn king, to fight against the encroaching prince and clan forces.
From Xijun Salt Farm to Xilanma City, from Dongpuhai Road to Beilin Snowfield, Yaoguang traveled among the five countries as an imperial merchant, strategizing and opening up trade routes. Li Huaizhou grew from a gentle and weak prince to a new emperor who turned the tide. From an alliance of interests to a life-and-death dependence, the two finally settled the disputes among the five countries and created a peaceful and prosperous era.
Yaoguang not only killed her enemies with her own hands, but also established a female officialdom as a queen, breaking the confinement of women and becoming a legend. The story combines the power game, business wisdom and female growth, showing how a woman breaks free from the shackles of the times, finds true freedom and strength in love and career, and finally makes the begonia bloom again and the spring tang never dies.
