Gu Zhaoning died at Midnight on a snowy night, watching helplessly as his father, brother, and the entire Gu family became sacrifices to the royal family.
When she opened her eyes again, she returned to the night before her wedding.
In her previous life, she was given to the prince by an imperial edict at a palace banquet.
Everyone said that it was a gift from heaven and an honor from heaven to the Gu family.
Only she knew that it was not a marriage contract, but the first blow that sent the Gu family to the guillotine.
In this life, she will not cry or bear it, and will no longer be the legitimate daughter of the Gu family who is at the mercy of others.
The concubine wanted to step on her to climb up, so she cut off her path first.
When her stepmother wanted to trade her life for the reputation of the family, she overturned this wealthy family.
The prince wanted to use her and the Gu family to stabilize the military power, so she ruined the marriage in public, spoiled his plan, and forced everyone to see clearly what was going on.
She originally wanted to change her life, protect her family, and collect old debts.
However, they found out step by step that there was something wrong with her mother's death, the destruction of her grandfather's family was not an accident, and the tragic defeat at the border was never a natural disaster.
It turns out that the Gu family is not innocent, nor is it an exception.
All the nobles, frontier troops, and old clans who were unwilling to completely surrender to the imperial power had already been written into the sacrificial texts.
And Lu Tingzhou, who had always been watching from afar, reached out to her when she was at her most cruel.
He asked her if she wanted to join forces.
She asked him whether he wanted her or the world.
He just smiled and replied -
"If you want to sacrifice to the world, I will light a lamp for you."
In this life, she doesn't want to be a sacrifice anymore.
She wanted to hold the knife, reverse the case, and make all the powerful people in the city take care of her family and pay with their blood.
