In her past life, Wei Yao was meek and helpless. She went blind at thirteen, physically, and at fifteen her unscrupulous parents sold her to Zhao Huan, heir to the Duke's estate, as his concubine.
Blind and with no one to rely on, she thought that having him meant she finally had a safe place to call home.
Later, when Prince Qi raised an army, Zhao Huan chose power over her. He drugged her, forced her to be with another man, and sent her to Prince Qi's estate as a concubine.
In the end, she conceived Prince Qi's child. As she sat in terror and despair, Zhao Huan poured a bowl of poison down her throat, killing both her and the baby.
When she awoke again, she was reborn on the night she was sent to Zhao Huan's private residence.
Wei Yao swore that this time, she would never entrust her fate to Zhao Huan again! And the family who blinded her and sold her off would pay, too!
She knew that Prince Qi, gravely wounded, would hide in this residence that night.
In her past life, she saved him, and Zhao Huan took the credit.
This time, she would escape Zhao Huan's control on her own.
So on the night she was reborn, she knocked Zhao Huan unconscious, then sat nervously on the big bed waiting for him to come.
Footsteps sounded in the darkness. Her heart raced as she reached out with her little hand, caught his sash, blushed, and began to play dumb. "Husband..."
Huo Changlan: "..."
Wei Yao hugged him. "Husband, how did you get hurt? Ah Yao will apply some medicine for you."
Huo Changlan paused, scooped her up, and tossed her onto the bed.
Wei Yao panicked. "Wait, something's not right!"
It wasn't like this in her past life! Wasn't Prince Qi supposed to be seriously wounded? How come he's so... Ah! Mm!
