-Mo Lingjiu was the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's household. Clever and talented from childhood, she was the gifted young woman everyone in the capital envied.
Countless talented young men came knocking, but she chose a disgraced prince.
She planned for him and helped him ascend the throne, only to be poisoned to death on the day of his empress-making ceremony.
It turned out Li Wen had long been involved with Lan Mengyao, and Mo Lingjiu had been nothing but a pawn from beginning to end.
When the game was over, the pawn was dead.
By a stroke of fate, after her death she became bound to a livestream and entered another person's body.
This time, she did everything she could just to survive, but she was still outnumbered.
Qi Jun, the palace's living King of Hell, struck fear into the hearts of all. Yet she went against the tide. She wanted the power in his hands, and she didn't care if it put her in danger.
-Everyone knew the palace's Seal-Holding Eunuch, Qi Jun, as a powerful, treacherous, and cruel man, a living King of Hell.
Few knew that he had entered the palace as a child, suffered bullying and false accusations, and endured countless hardships before rising to the position of Seal-Holding Eunuch.
When his bone-cold illness flared up, it felt as though his skin and bones were being stripped away, pain piercing his heart.
As the weakness buried deep inside him surfaced, a woman's delicate hand reached for his wrist. He seized it, frowning as he reprimanded her harshly.
The woman leaned against his chest, her butterfly-wing lashes fluttering as she said softly, “My lord, look at me.”
-That day, Xunzhen had just climbed onto the imperial bed when he caught her by the ankle.
A searing heat smoldered in the man's eyes. His cool breath filled her lungs and crept into every pore.
“Look at you, all clever and quick-witted. Use me and then throw me away?”
