[Two utterly unhinged leads + high-stakes mind games + no filler side characters + satisfying revenge + possessive love]
In her previous life, Jiang Ruyue, the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, married into the Eastern Palace, only to catch the Crown Prince secretly involved with her half-sister, Jiang Ruolian.
Ten years of devotion brought her nothing but betrayal and death.
Only when her half-sister shoved her into a deep pool did she learn the truth: “One heart, one partner for life” was nothing but a lie told by a scumbag!
When she opened her eyes again, she had somehow switched places with her half-sister, returning to the day of her wedding!
This time, Jiang Ruyue would no longer back down.
The Crown Prince was a hypocrite, so she would tear off his mask with her own hands. Her half-sister was vicious, so she would make her suffer the consequences of her own actions.
“Older sister, you’re only a concubine-born daughter. What makes you think you can compete with me?”
Jiang Ruyue sneered. “Because what you stole will never see the light of day.”
“Ruyue, my feelings for you have never changed.”
She lifted her eyes. “Your Highness has too many hearts. I can’t afford one.”
She had planned to use Prince Shuo Zhao Beixiao’s influence to take revenge, never expecting to provoke a mad prince feared by everyone.
The world said Prince Shuo was debauched and bloodthirsty, but when it came to her, he said:
“Whoever lays a hand on her will be buried with her.”
“My lord, don’t you hate me most of all?”
“Mm. I hate you, so I want to keep you trapped by my side for the rest of your life.”
She would take down the fake saint, crush the scumbag, clean up the court, and claim the throne!
He would conquer the realm and command all beneath heaven, granting his favor to her alone!
On the day the people came to pay their respects, the emperor descended the nine steps himself and led her up to the heavens.
“Ten thousand miles of empire are nothing compared to Jiang Ruyue.”
