It is said that Princess Jiang Yuan of Anyang was doted on by the Empress Dowager from childhood. She was spoiled and overbearing, and knew nothing of poetry, books, or proper etiquette. But so what? In her previous life, Jiang Yuan believed that with her maternal grandmother's affection, she would marry her cousin Xun. He was the heir of the Duke of Anguo, a famed war hero, and they had grown up together. Surely, once she married him, she would never have to suffer a grievance.
But who could have imagined that the Empress, coveting the military strength of the Duke of Anguo's household, would scheme to get Jiang Yuan drunk with the Crown Prince so that the family would support him? In her panic, Jiang Yuan had no choice but to enter the Eastern Palace.
She thought that since she and the Crown Prince had grown up together, he would surely treat her with dignity even if she remained in the palace. She would still live a life of incomparable privilege.
But barely two years after she married the Crown Prince, the new emperor could no longer tolerate the Duke of Anguo's family, whose achievements threatened to overshadow the throne. The family was framed for treason and wiped out overnight. As empress, she too was trampled underfoot, until she was treated worse than even the lowliest palace servant.
She was no longer the graceful, dignified woman she once was. Whenever people spoke of her, their envy had turned to pity.
Reborn, Jiang Yuan looked at the Crown Prince, who had yet to ascend the throne, and hatred surged in her heart. "In this life, someone else must become emperor!"
But who was fit for the throne? Jiang Yuan could not help thinking of Xie Shen, the son of the Xie family. In her previous life, he had risen from obscure origins to become a prince with a different surname.
In her previous life, everyone said Xie Shen was born among common folk, unlike the refined and elegant young noblemen of the capital.
But Jiang Yuan didn't care about that. She had already died once. Why should she care about appearances?
Then, the day she finally met Xie Shen, she looked at his strong, handsome face and suddenly realized that appearances mattered after all.
What she didn't know was that just as she had set her sights on Xie Shen, she had already caught his attention.
