[Reborn, repentant, and determined to govern well empress × gentle, bright, and sickly regent prince]
Xiao Yi'an wasn’t a good person in her previous life. She was suspicious, arrogant, and obstinate.
She ascended the throne at ten, using every scheme and stratagem to secure her position. She made many terrible mistakes.
The one she regretted most
was trampling on the sincere feelings of Yan Changning, the regent prince, and driving him step by step into a desperate situation.
She had dreamed of Yan Changning’s death, only to learn the truth in the end and realize how terribly wrong she had been.
Yan Changning was as gentle and bright as the breeze and moonlight, the dream lover of countless noble young ladies.
But the world would never know his deepest secret: he had fallen in love with Xiao Yi'an.
He had poured his heart into teaching her to govern, never imagining his devotion would be misplaced and that he would ultimately meet a fate from which there was no escape.
When Xiao Yi'an opened her eyes again, she had been reborn in her youth.
Though she and the regent prince had fallen out, it was still not too late. She could make things right.
So she began to care for Yan Changning, cling to him, and address him as she had when she was little.
Xiao Yi'an: Brother Xingzhi~
Yan Changning: Your Majesty.
Xiao Yi'an: You didn’t used to call me that.
Yan Changning: There is a distinction between ruler and subject. I dare not overstep.
Xiao Yi'an: ...Serves me right! That’s what I get for treating him that way before.
▲ This is not a matriarchal story. The late emperor had few heirs, so the female lead inherited the throne.
▲ The romance doesn’t suddenly turn into sickly-sweet sugar. At first, the female lead only wants to make amends. She falls for the male lead after they spend time together.
▲ In her previous life, the female lead had a husband, but theirs was a relationship of mutual exploitation.
▲ The male lead excels at both letters and arms. He is usually gentle, but ruthless and decisive in court. Old injuries cause him physical pain, but otherwise have no effect on him!!!
One-on-one | Sweet romance | Happy ending
Theme: I only meant to make it up to him, so how did I end up giving him my heart?
