In her previous life, she was the timid, easily bullied legitimate daughter of the Chancellor.
Betrayed by her gentle half-sister and used by the man she loved, Prince Jing, she watched her mother die a tragic death and her maternal family suffer a wrongful accusation. She herself froze to death in the Cold Palace’s icy pool, dying with hatred in her heart.
Then, in a single moment, she was reborn, returning to the eve of her fifteenth-birthday hairpin ceremony.
All the tenderness in her eyes shattered, leaving only bone-chilling coldness and boundless hatred.
Her false-hearted half-sister plays the virtuous innocent? She’ll tear off that mask in front of everyone!
The scoundrel Prince Jing insists on their betrothal? At her hairpin ceremony, she’ll break off the engagement before all and sever every tie between them!
From the dark schemes of the inner household to intrigues within the manor and conspiracies at court, she’ll plan each move carefully, wield political power, and settle accounts with every enemy.
Everyone says the Chancellor’s legitimate daughter has changed completely, becoming ruthless and cold-hearted.
Only Xiao Jue, the Regent who holds power over the entire court, protects her in the palm of his hand and dotes on her with all his heart.
“Though the world’s wind and snow cut to the bone, I alone will give you a lifetime of peace, help you avenge your wrongs, and promise you a life of prosperity and glory.”
In this battle for power within the household, amid political schemes and rivalries, she’ll tear down her enemies and join hands with a powerful minister. In this life, she will keep her family safe, crush every regret from her past life, and shine like a phoenix over the capital!
