The Imperial Preceptor Has Been Coveting Me for Ages (Reborn)

In her previous life, Rong Yu's father, who had always doted on her, suddenly changed his mind and forced her into a political marriage. But she was so frail that she died on the journey. After Rong Yu died, her soul lingered and drifted back to the old capital, only to discover that someone else had taken the throne. Grand Preceptor Xu Huaihe sat above all others. The ministers all knelt and addressed him as emperor. Not one person opposed his killing of the former emperor and ascending the throne. Rong Yu was stunned. So after being reborn, she resolved to attach herself to this aloof, celibate beauty. She tried all sorts of clumsy approaches, and he even responded to her advances. It wasn't until she was pinned in the corner of a carriage, his long fingers lifting her skirt as she was forced to arch her neck and whimper, that she realized Xu Huaihe's celibacy was a pretense. He was truly ravenous, and he especially loved making her feel flustered. On the night before her wedding, Rong Yu sneaked out of the princess's residence and climbed onto the wall of the Grand Preceptor's estate, hoping to meet Xu Huaihe in secret. Then she saw the person who had angered her a few days earlier lying at Xu Huaihe's feet, blood running freely from his neck. The grand preceptor, renowned as a cool and noble gentleman, lowered his head and unhurriedly wiped the blood from his fingers before reaching out to her: "Your Highness, have you seen enough?" * Xu Huaihe had coveted Princess Zhaohua for a long time. He had planned to wait until he reclaimed the throne before keeping Rong Yu imprisoned at his side. But before he could clear away every obstacle, she came right to him, weakly telling him in his arms that she'd twisted her ankle and needed him to escort her home. Xu Huaihe thought that if she liked cool, noble gentlemen, he could keep up the act for the rest of his life. But she still saw the side of him he'd hidden away. In that case, he no longer needed to hide his fangs or his cruel streak... She wasn't going to escape anyway. * A frail, dignified, pampered, innocent princess x a duplicitous, cold and crazed grand preceptor Theme: Give sincerity in return for sincerity
