[A pampered young lady with nothing on her mind but wealth and status x a calculating, carefree prince]
[Reborn + mistaken turns of fate + sweet and satisfying]
Xia Xingque spent her whole life striving and scheming, only to meet the most miserable end imaginable.
There was no other reason. She wanted to be empress too badly.
To claim the throne, she did many shameless things and earned a reputation as a loose woman.
Who could have guessed she'd end up a discarded consort, drinking poison in the Cold Palace and dying without ever becoming empress?
Oh, how miserable.
Reborn, Xia Xingque is afraid of dying and doesn't dare get involved with those two powerful men again.
But she still wants to be empress.
She can't help it. This obsession runs too deep. Just thinking about giving it up makes her feel as if her heart is being torn apart.
She is miserable and dazed, and somehow ends up falling into the palace's imperial pond.
A handsome young man rescues her, then complains that she wasted his time.
Xia Xingque stares at his face, momentarily entranced.
Later, nestled against his side, she cautiously asks:
"...Do you want to be emperor?"
At first, Li Xuyou thinks Xia Xingque is so shallow it's laughable.
But one day, outside the warm pavilion, he sees her sobbing uncontrollably and changes his mind. He pulls her hand away from her tear-streaked face:
"Stop crying. I'll make you empress, I promise."
P.S.:
This is probably a story about a girl who covets wealth and status finally meeting her destined love.
