Even if you beg for mercy ten thousand times, you won't get one life back. In her previous life, she was a foot-washing maid in Prince Duan's Mansion. She was humbled to the dust, but she was still cannon fodder who was easily pushed out to die. After reviving her life, she doesn't want any mercy.
She took the initiative to find the ambitious Prince Duan Muyuan and made a deal: she would seize his heir and help him ascend the throne. After that, she would become the queen.
The price is to kill the original mistress with your own hands, replace the skin, and live as another person. Pain? It hurts. If it doesn't hurt, you won't survive three episodes.
From a foot-washing maid to a noble daughter, from being alone to being a camp at every step. She helped Mu Yuan eradicate dissidents, win over forces, quell palace troubles, and even gave birth to a prince - not for his love, but for her own stability in the rest of her life.
But Mu Yuan seemed to have forgotten that this was just a transaction. After she changed her appearance, he held her face and said, "You are still you"; after she blocked his arrow, he said with red eyes, "I won't allow you to die." She listened without any disturbance in her heart - she had believed in her sincerity in her previous life, and the grass on her grave was already three feet high.
Later, she really sat on the phoenix throne. The whole palace hated her, and the courtiers scolded her. Mu Yuan asked her, "Have you ever truly loved me?"
She smiled and replied: "Your Majesty gives me glory and wealth, and I give birth to children for you. Isn't this the most sincere heart in the world?"
——You want to have a relationship with me? No, this is a sale. If you can't give trust and respect, then give power and status. As for love? I quit in my last life.
