Jiang Tingyue was imprisoned in the Cold Palace, where someone brought her a cup of poisoned wine. After the poison entered her intestines, she didn't die, but was reborn back to when she was still a young woman in her boudoir.

    Throughout the more than 3,000-year history of the Tiansheng Dynasty, there have been countless monarchs of great talent and ambition, as well as many ruthless and cunning warlords. Like stars in the night sky, they shone brightly in the long river of history, leaving behind a variety of inspiring legends and enchanting tales… Among these figures, the most controversial yet most revered, undoubtedly the number one person of Tiansheng, is Emperor Shengwu: Xiao Yi, known as the "Mad Emperor." He conquered twenty-three kingdoms, unifying the 25 million square kilometers of the Yagu Continent. He purged the court, punished corruption, promoted agriculture, emphasized commerce, developed industry, and attracted tribute from all nations, bringing the nation's strength and prestige to unprecedented heights, creating the most prosperous "Yuanjing Golden Age" in the history of the Tiansheng Dynasty. However, at the same time, for the throne, he murdered his father, brothers, wife, and children. He killed his father and brothers, his stepmother, his first wife, his empress, and two of his three sons, barely leaving a single bloodline. His throne was piled high with bones, his golden age couldn't conceal the rivers of blood. After his death, he wasn't buried in the imperial mausoleum, nor was he interred with others; he was buried only in the old Duan Prince's mansion. Buried with him was only a piece of furniture he'd stolen from Xiao Wei. Xiao Yi, throughout his life, disrespected gods and Buddhas, feared no ghosts or monsters, and was unafraid of retribution; his only fear was losing Shen Zhuo, yet he himself had lost her. Reborn twice, a wife-chasing ordeal ensues. The sickly Shen Zhuo starts off with a winning hand, only to squander it all. Her father is a powerful minister, her mother a princess, her sister a queen, and her brother a powerful general. Yet, she was blinded by a beautiful face, ending up with her family destroyed. Reborn, her first act is to assassinate her enemy from her past life.
