In her past life, Zhao Qiuling had long dreamed of becoming empress. Three months after entering the palace, she became the emperor's most beloved woman, yet ended up poisoned to death.

Given another chance, Zhao Qiuling was terrified and firmly refused to enter the palace.

But the emperor insisted on marrying her and bringing her into the palace!

After becoming empress again, Zhao Qiuling decided to be a dutiful, well-behaved empress and never compete for the emperor's favor.

Unfortunately, she couldn't stop the emperor from favoring her. He spent every night in her palace, making her the target of everyone's resentment once more...

With the three-month mark drawing near...

At her wits' end, she clung to the emperor's leg and sobbed, "Please, give me a way to survive! Your concubine doesn't want to die young!"

The emperor curled his lips and drew her into his arms. "Good girl! This time, I'll protect you!"

P.S.:

Rong Yu has two secrets.

First, she's known for a long time that Xie Jing doesn't want to marry her. He wouldn't even take her as a concubine.

Second, she doesn't actually love Xie Jing either. All her apparent devotion is just a way to buy herself more time.

One day, she meets the perfect man. He doesn't care that she is the daughter of a condemned official, and he is willing to marry her properly.

Rong Yu agrees without hesitation and waits for his bridal sedan to come take her away.

As she plans the day she will leave the Xie residence, Xie Jing storms over, furious.

Drunk, he demands, "A Yu, didn't you love me more than anything? Why are you marrying someone else?"

Rong Yu touches his forehead and sneers. "Fool. Who said I loved you? I never said that."

At that moment, Xie Jing feels as if a bucket of ice water has drenched him to the bone.

Later, just days before the wedding, Rong Yu's room catches fire, and she dies in the blaze.

In a dim secret chamber, a man's hoarse, obsessive voice asks again and again, "A Yu, tell me again. Who do you love?"

Song Jin has been Li Chengye's fiancée for three years. She is gentle, well-behaved, and obedient.

Everyone laughs at her: "What's the point of having such a good temper? She's just an outsider and a concubine-born daughter. Young Master Li won't marry her."

Song Jin doesn't take it to heart. Li Chengye proposed the engagement himself, so surely he has feelings for her.

Only later does she learn that Li Chengye already loves someone else. He proposed to her only so he could order her around without anyone questioning it.

On the Qixi Festival, Song Jin invites Li Chengye to celebrate with her, but he refuses, claiming he doesn't celebrate holidays. That night, however, she sees him embracing a woman on the Magpie Bridge.

At that moment, Song Jin's heart finally dies.

Six months later, the Crown Prince's wedding shakes the entire city.

A breeze lifts the bridal veil, and Li Chengye sees Song Jin in her wedding dress, beautiful as a celestial being and perfectly matched with the Crown Prince beside her.

Consumed by jealousy, Li Chengye chases her all the way to the bridal chamber. "A Jin, come back with me."

Song Jin doesn't even look at him. "Someone, throw him out!"

One night, while traveling, Song Jin accidentally injures a man. His leg is fractured, leaving him unable to walk properly, and he refuses to leave her alone.

With no other choice, Song Jin takes him in at her little courtyard and cares for him every day, hoping he will recover soon.

At first, the man often makes bold declarations. "As soon as my leg heals, I'm leaving. I can't stand staying in this dump another moment."

A month passes, then two.

Then three...

The man's leg still doesn't seem to get better. Song Jin is troubled by it, until one day she sees him kick a shuttlecock straight into a basket.

Song Jin: You tricked me?

Furious, Song Jin throws all his luggage outside.

The man pounds on the door from outside. "Song Xiaojin, open up! If I hadn't been worried you'd be alone here, upset with no one to comfort you, I'd have left ages ago!"
