When Gu Mingzhu was reborn on the night of the Lantern Festival, the first thing she did was to knock down Pei Yan's wonton stall with her horse and force her to marry him in the street.
In her previous life, she was the deposed queen and he was the regent. Until her death, she thought it was the poisoned wine given by Pei Yan. After her death, she found out that he was the one who dug up her grave and was sentenced to death for "peeping into the imperial mausoleum" the following year.
In this life, she wants to be his wife, and then ruin every move he makes - marry her when he is still poor and destitute, and see if he can climb back to that position.
But she didn't know that Pei Yan was also reborn.
He married her with a smile, smiled as she watched her stumbling in secret, smiled and dipped the Hexin wine she spilled into his fingertips and wrote the word "sweet".
On the wedding night, when he finished the last stroke on her palm, he thought - in the last life, I stayed with you for seventeen years after your death. In this life, I will wait for you to carve out my heart with your own hands to see if it is black.
