Yan Qijin, the legitimate daughter of Canglan Yan family, was born gentle and obedient. She was the prince's fiancée who was envied by all the noble ladies in the capital.
But she died once.
In her previous life, she dedicated her heart to the prince Xiao Jingheng, but in exchange, her whole family was slaughtered and her body was dismembered. The moment the blood spattered on the execution ground, she saw clearly - all he wanted from marrying her from the beginning to the end was the military power in the hands of the Yan family.
After resurrecting her life, the prince affectionately came to propose marriage, but she tore up the engagement and refused in court. The whole city laughed at her for ruining her future, so she turned around and married Xiao Jinque, the deposed king who was despised by everyone.
Everyone said that the crippled king was ill, violent, and short-lived. Marrying him would be like being a widow.
But no one knew - he was the master of the Dark Pavilion, he had been dormant for ten years, and he held the lifeblood of the entire country in his hands; he walked lamely step by step, stepping on the blood of the East Palace with every step.
In the eyes of the world, she is a docile and obedient daughter of the Yan family, but in fact, she has no plans and every step, dragging the prince's followers into the abyss one by one with a gentle smile; in the eyes of the world, he is a sinister and useless short-lived deposed king, but in fact, he tolerates his plans, controls the government and the public, and crushes the entire old court with a lame foot.
Everyone forced her to become the crown princess of the prosperous era, but she wanted to marry the deposed king who was despised by everyone.
Everyone looks down on it, but in the end everyone looks up to it.
The game between the two powers, the ultimate pull. In your last life, you owed me a lot of blood debt. In this life, I will help him rise to power and overturn your empire.
