The Phoenix Arrives in the Capital: Prince Xie Insists on Bending the Knee for Her

In her previous life, Tang Jinglin was brought back to the capital by the marquis’s household, only to become a stepping stone for her elder sister, a pawn of the Crown Prince, and a castoff of her family. She took the blame for others and shielded them from disaster, until her reputation was ruined and she died miserably on a snowy night. As she lay dying, only Prince Jing, Xie Yunxiao, a man with power over the entire court, came to claim her body.

When she opened her eyes again, she was back on the day she entered the marquis’s household.

In this life, Tang Jinglin wants no family affection and trusts no one’s kindness. She wants everyone who wronged her to pay in blood. When her elder sister pretends to be weak, Tang Jinglin tears off her mask in public. When the marquis’s household tries to use her, she settles old scores. When the Crown Prince makes her a pawn, she topples the entire Eastern Palace.

But she never expected that Xie Yunxiao, cold-faced and ruthless, would make exception after exception for her.

He says, “I can calculate everything under heaven, but for you alone, I’m willing to bend the knee.”
