A gentle, refined emperor who hides a dark side and bears everything in silence x a forthright, spoiled young lady of noble birth who becomes his consort: everyone reborn + mind reading + two strong leads competing for her + the male lead and second male lead share all five senses + devoted favoritism + the male lead has a harem early on, but remains pure in body and heart.
The day she died, the capital was struck by a once-in-a-century blizzard.
Everyone said Heaven was avenging Consort Shen.
In her previous life, he was an emperor consumed by regret.
He loved her, yet with his own hands he pushed her into the clutches of a wicked woman, all to prove one thing: “See? I’m the only one in this world who can protect you. Every warning I gave you was right.”
He won the wager, but lost the one he loved forever.
As Shen Zhishu lay dying, she heard two men roar.
When she opened her eyes again, she was back on the night she first married Jiang Caiyu. The candlelight glowed warmly around their wedding chamber.
The emperor, who had lost everything, clutched her hand tightly, his eyes filled with feelings she couldn’t understand.
Lord Cui, as elegant as a gentle breeze beneath a clear sky, didn’t sleep all night.
Worse still, she realized that somehow her thoughts seemed to be leaking out.
She only secretly missed the clever math puzzles Lord Cui had told her about, and that very night, Jiang Caiyu picked a fight with Lord Cui and made him kneel on the icy steps.
She merely complained to herself that “His Majesty is so fierce,” and the next day, the entire imperial harem felt the gloomy pressure of the emperor’s mood.
The emperor pinned Shen Zhishu against the edge of the bed.
His burning kiss fell beside her ear, his voice hoarse and broken.
“A Yuan, don’t be afraid.”
“In this life, I’ll kill every rat hiding in the gutters for you.”
“You need only… try to love me once more.”
Where she couldn’t “hear” them, the tyrant and the powerful minister were forced to share all five senses and everything else because of the forbidden sacrificial magic from their previous lives…
