She died once, so she had nothing to fear.
Shen Qingyuan has been the queen for ten years, in exchange for an edict to abolish the queen, three years in the cold palace, and the execution of everyone in the family.
She only learned the truth before she died - the emperor who kept saying "I will never let you down in this life" had been lying to her from beginning to end. What he married was not her, but the three hundred thousand soldiers of the Shen family; what he was guarding was not anyone else, but her father and brother; what he wanted to destroy was not rebellion, but the entire Shen family.
The night he died in the cold palace, it was snowing heavily.
When she opened her eyes again, she was sixteen again.
This year, she was still the eldest daughter of the Zhenguo Palace. Her father was still alive, her brother was still alive, and the 300,000 Shen family soldiers were still surnamed Shen. And the future emperor—Sixth Prince Xiao Jamel—was smiling as warmly as jade and handed her a cloak.
In her previous life, she took over the mantle in exchange for ten years of mispayment.
In this life, she took half a step back and saluted respectfully: "Thank you, Your Highness. Your Majesty's carriage has arrived."
From then on, the Miss Shen who was full of poems and songs disappeared. Instead, there was a woman crawling back from the mountain of corpses and sea of blood. She wanted to take back everything that had been plotted against her, to stop the Shen family from being a knife in anyone's hands, and to let those who planned the plan have a taste of the backlash of the chess game.
But this chess game is bigger than she imagined.
