Ye Chuchu, the most beautiful young lady in the imperial capital, has been secretly chosen to become the Fourth Prince's consort. But the ink on the imperial edict granting the marriage has not even dried when Xiu Jingxing, the General's son who has been recovering from illness at a temple, suddenly returns to the capital and comes to the Ye residence to ask for her hand.
While the noble young masters laugh at Xiu Jingxing for overestimating himself, Ye Chuchu actually agrees to marry him!
The noble young ladies who have reignited their battle for the position of princess consort mock her: "You'd rather marry a monk than a prince? You deserve to be trampled underfoot!"
Delicate and frail Ye Chuchu holds a bloodstained blade and smiles faintly. "I only want to kill my enemies with my own hands. Why should I care whether the person sharing my bed is a sickly man or a wild monk?"
Xiu Jingxing, rumored to be near death, silently takes the blade from Ye Chuchu. His thin lips brush the crown of her head as he murmurs gently, "My lady, blood is filthy. Let me do it."
Later, after Ye Chuchu has looked down on countless people prostrating themselves at her feet, she finally pins her peerlessly handsome, sickly husband to the bed and tugs at his belt. "Will Buddha blame you?"
Xiu Jingxing calmly loosens his collar, revealing his firm chest. "For you, I would gladly descend into the abyss."
A fake sickly, fake monk, genuinely ruthless and scheming male lead VS a sweet and delicate, ruthless reborn heroine who is a one-woman fighting machine
Note: 1. The heroine is reborn.
2. The hero is at the temple to keep a low profile while carrying out a major plan. He is not actually a monk.
