In her previous life, he gave her poisoned wine.
In this life, she removed her phoenix crown.
Shen Qingtang is reborn on her wedding night, the night she marries Xie Xuan.
He is still the cold-blooded, murderous Prince Regent, and she is still the pawn offered up by the Shen family. There is only one difference: she has tasted his poison and seen the color of the road to the underworld. She will never trust anyone again.
She thinks this life is all about revenge. In secret, she chips away at his power, takes control of his princely estate, and pushes him down from the throne one step at a time.
He watches it all without stopping her or undoing her plans. Sometimes, he even hands her a knife.
Until she reveals her trump card in the Golden Hall, and the assembled officials kneel before their new ruler. Xie Xuan steps down from the dragon throne, places half a tiger tally in her palm, and leans close to whisper something in her ear.
She freezes in place.
Shen Qingtang, I wasn’t the one who killed you.
I’m the only one who has protected you, from beginning to end.
