[Past and present lives + reborn through a soul transmigration + joining forces as equals]
[Sweet on the outside, ruthless and career-minded princess VS a hostage prince who plays the pig to eat the tiger and is hopelessly love-struck]
[We were never meant to meet. It was all thanks to me clinging to you.]
In her previous life, Ling Wangshu was the most gifted woman in the capital of Chu. Beloved by her family, she lost them all in a conspiracy, perished in a sea of flames, and died with hatred in her heart.
When she awoke reborn, she had become the daughter of her enemy, the legitimate princess of Chu Zhao. From then on, she planned every step carefully, smiling with a knife hidden behind it, and toyed with the foolish emperor as if he were in the palm of her hand.
The empress can't beat the favored consort? She'll help. The crown prince's position is unstable? She'll secure it.
But while investigating an old case, Li Wangshu accidentally discovered that Yan Yusheng, the dissolute hostage prince who seemed to have no interest in study, had secretly woven an inescapable net across Chu Zhao.
She had his life in her hands, and he knew her secrets. Forced to work together, they each got what they wanted.
In the end, the hostage prince returned to his homeland, and the princess avenged her family. They thought they would never cross paths again.
Who knew that as soon as an imperial decree for a political marriage was issued, the man would come straight to her door to ask for her hand?
Beneath the willow branches in the moonlight, the man climbed in through the window and said fervently, “Why dirty Your Highness's hands? Let me be your blade.”
On their wedding night, Li Wangshu sat at the edge of the bed and laid things out calmly:
“Same arrangement as before. Yan Shuo is yours, and Chu Zhao is mine.”
He gave a low laugh and leaned over her:
“Fine. Yan Shuo is mine, so who do I belong to? ... My wife.”
Yan Yusheng: “I want to talk about romance with my wife, but all she wants is to work with me. What should I do?”
