The Cold-Faced Heir Was Reborn and Kicked His Scheming Exes to the Curb

[Reborn to punish scumbags + Kicking a disastrous romance to the curb + A groveling quest to win back his wife + The legitimate daughter rises + Political schemes and revenge + Mutual salvation]

In her previous life, he was the most distinguished and cold-hearted young marquis in the capital, yet he fell for a white lotus.

At the Lantern Festival, Jiang Ruoshui carefully staged a fall into the water. With her frail, innocent act, she tricked him into protecting her with all his heart.

From then on, he was blind in both eyes and heart.

He believed slander and publicly humiliated Jiang Ruoning, the childhood friend who had been by his side since they were young;

He let the rumors spread, leaving her branded as a jealous woman who had stolen her younger sister's fiancé;

He looked on coldly as her stepmother and half-sister tormented and framed her until she died.

The pure white moonlight he cherished was, in truth, a venomous scorpion.

Jiang Ruoshui had long been carrying on an affair with Third Prince Xiao Yan. She had approached him only to steal the Gu family's military authority and city-defense maps, helping the treacherous prince seize the throne.

Once Xiao Yan ascended the throne, he discarded those who had outlived their usefulness.

He then turned around and falsely accused the Gu family of colluding with the enemy and betraying their country!

An entire household of loyal servants was slaughtered overnight, their blood staining the execution ground!

Only as he lay dying did Gu Yunque learn the whole truth.

The woman he loved was poison; the one he cast aside was his light.

He had betrayed the only woman who truly loved him and destroyed a marquis's house that had served the country faithfully for generations. Regret ate away at him, and he died with his eyes open!

When he opened his eyes again, he had been reborn to a time when the tragedy could still be prevented.

In this life, Jiang Ruoshui still held memories of her rebirth and believed the empress's throne was her destiny.

She secretly allied herself with the Third Prince ahead of time, plotting at every turn to control Gu Yunque more quickly, seize the Gu family's power, and claim the throne as empress!

But she did not know this:

In this life, the one who had been blind was no longer Gu Yunque!

He watched the world coldly, yet was stubbornly devoted and humbly submissive to Jiang Ruoning alone, following her at every turn and clumsily trying to atone.
