The Buddhist Maiden Only Wants to Become a Nun, but a Dog of a Man Won't Let Her Go

According to unofficial historical records, Pei Quezhi, the former dynasty's Lady of Gu'an, was born holding a lotus. A natural-born Buddhist maiden, she was destined to enter a convent. Yet she had four husbands. Her first marriage was to Gu Ting, heir to the Duke of Zhenguo. They were a devoted couple. Her second marriage was to Emperor Yonghe, Fu Chi. He kept his harem empty and devoted himself to her alone. Her third marriage was to Shao Yin, founding emperor of the Great Pei, and she became the beloved Consort Pei. After Shao Yin died, his legitimate son made Pei Quezhi his empress. They were buried together. Father and son at odds, an emperor taking his subject's wife, a dynasty rising and falling. In the history books, she is the most notorious beauty who brought ruin to a kingdom. But a femme fatale has no choice in the matter. Her life was defined by schemes and ruthless possession. They claimed to love her, yet stole the freedom of her Buddha nature, caged her like a pet bird, defiled her sacred spirit, and slaughtered her entire family. Now that she has been given another chance, Pei Quezhi sets aside the Ten Virtues Sutra and forgets the Buddha of Unbound Compassion. Just as old grudges are reaching their height, a dashing young man on a fine horse abandons his pride and fights for her. In her previous life, she tried to talk them down. This time, she watches coldly and fans the flames.
