I’ll tell my story, and you can go your own way.] Shen Jiayan had finally waited for his friend Gao Zhan to kick the bucket. He kept waiting and waiting, until Lu Zhen finally agreed to go with him to Turpan and grow old together. But on her way back to find him, Lu Zhen kicked the bucket too. He had finally risen to power... Then he was so furious that he died of rage as well. The two of them were reborn together, back to the days when Gao Yan ascended the throne. Shen Jiayan thought he was the only one who had been reborn, and rushed off to find Lu Zhen at once. He knew Lu Zhen’s whole story, from her family burning black porcelain to her becoming the first female chancellor. Shen Jiayan swore that this time, he would meet A Zhen before Gao Zhan did. If he met her first and claimed every chance encounter, then he wouldn’t be stealing his friend’s wife. Who knew Lu Zhen seemed to be stringing him along the whole time? Lu Zhen returned to the days of Gao Yan’s accession, the very day her family had fired black porcelain. She was already figuring out how to meet Shen Jiayan. Last time, she hadn’t met Shen Jiayan until she was already a Rank Eight Keeper of Treasures. Looks like she’ll have to deal with her stepmother, save Gao Zhan, sort out the household registers, and enter the palace to take the female official exam all over again.
