Sweet-tongued, gentle, healing beauty vs. beautiful, strong, tragic, tsundere king with a gloomy streak (the heroine won't get depressed)
By imperial decree of her aunt, the Empress Dowager, Su Yi entered the Eastern Palace as crown princess.
Three years later, also by imperial decree of the Empress Dowager, her father, who plotted to usurp the throne, personally handed her a cup of poisoned wine, killing her as a useless pawn.
Her ghost remained in the palace. She watched Zhao Qizheng, who had hated and neglected her, return from battle and sit by her coffin for three days and nights. He ruthlessly executed her father, stepmother, and aunt, the Empress Dowager, then left the Six Palaces empty and lived alone from then on.
Reborn, she returned to the time before her wedding.
Su Yi resolutely ran to the only person in her previous life who had cared for and loved her, the tsundere emperor. She would walk with him through the thorns, live well, and wait for him to say, "My heart longs for you alone."
The lonely, tsundere emperor plans every step carefully. His gentle, sweet little empress is the one unexpected thing in his life. Though tender and delicate, she is determined to face every storm with him, pull him back from the abyss, and see the world by his side.
A little scene:
At first, beneath the red wedding candles, the breathtaking beauty gazed at him with a sweet smile, her face flushed with shyness.
Zhao Zhi's expression was icy. He sneered, "The daughter the Duke of Liang sent me is nothing special!"
Later,
Behind the brocade screen, beneath the warm curtains, the scented quilt lay in disarray.
The beauty furrowed her brows and kicked him away. "I was nothing special!"
The shameless man didn't so much as change his expression. He wrapped an arm around her slender waist. "Even that was enough to haunt my dreams!"
