Junzhu Yin Mingshu is peerlessly radiant, the cherished jewel in the emperor's palm.
After a palace coup, she has no choice but to seek refuge beneath the bed of Xie Congyu, a powerful minister born a lowly slave.
She doesn't know that Xie Congyu has long yearned for her, yet never dared lay a finger on her.
Reborn, he can no longer bear to watch her fall into another man's arms. He plots and schemes, forcing her to yield.
Xie Congyu gets his wish and claims the jewel in his arms. But after clearing every obstacle for her, he never expects her to run away.
Only then does he realize that he isn't the only one who has been reborn! All the tenderness they shared was merely a means to an end.
Xie Congyu crushes the pearl on her phoenix crown, gritting his teeth as he vows to capture her and lock her by his side.
But when he finally sees Yin Mingshu, he hides his fangs and claws and coaxes her gently: "Zhenzhen, if you stay by my side, you can even be empress. If you don't want to..."
Xie Congyu bends down, picks up the hem of her skirt, stained with mud, and carefully wipes it clean. "Let me be your dog."
