Three years after marrying Zhuang Nanzhou, the Regent, Luo Sheng, the Prime Minister's legitimate daughter, mysteriously died while pregnant.
Everyone said the Regent had secretly dealt with Luo Sheng because she had been vicious in life, even going so far as to murder her own younger sister.
Gu Sheng knew only that the Regent had long been in love with Luo Xiao, the Prime Minister's second daughter.
When Luo Sheng opened her eyes again, she had been reborn as the wife of the Jin dynasty's newly appointed top scholar,
Gu Sheng, who had met with misfortune while traveling to the capital to find her husband.
Luo Sheng had never had much to complain about when it came to her previous life. Though she was the legitimate daughter, her father showed her no affection and her mother did not love her. Her younger sister was a scheming little white lotus who opposed her at every turn.
She had only wanted to stay alive, but in the end, she died on a cold night.
No one cared for her anyway, so it didn't matter.
When she came back to life, five years had passed since "Luo Sheng" died. The people of the Jin dynasty said the Regent was born under an ill-starred fate and was destined to die alone.
Yet one day, he cornered the top scholar's wife in a courtyard, in front of everyone, his eyes reddening as he demanded, "A Sheng, is it you?"

She was his wife, the woman he had personally asked to marry him. How could he not love her?
He had simply understood what love was too late.

A ruthless heiress who wants nothing x a Regent with overwhelming possessiveness
My other novel, "Accidentally Winning Over the Villain," is currently updating:
In the original story, Fang Ying struggled all her life. Just one step away from becoming empress, she was utterly crushed and took her own life in the grand hall.
Fang Ying, who transmigrated into a book, believes putting your hopes in a man is sheer fantasy. Forget becoming empress, she could even try for the throne itself.
But she never expected that Jiang Que, the powerful official who helped the male lead, the Seventh Prince, at every turn, would join her side and repeatedly try to win her favor.
*
The wicked woman Fang Ying was doted on by the Prime Minister's household from childhood. Arrogant and overbearing, she rode her horse through the street and injured people, yet even the emperor repeatedly covered for her.
From the moment she schemed to marry Prince Rong, she plotted her way toward the position of empress, caring neither for family bonds nor Prince Rong's wishes.
In the end, the male lead's scheme brought all her plans crashing down. Knowing her cause was lost, she took her own life atop a high platform. Her corpse was left in the hall for three days, with no one to tend to it. Her end could hardly have been more tragic.
Yet one person broke down the door on the fourth day, gently lifted her from the ground, and granted her the honor of being buried alongside the emperor as his empress.
*
Jiang Que had been raised by the imperial family like a vicious hound, taught only to bite and kill, never to question right or wrong. Everyone in the realm feared him.
In his previous life, he pretended to support the Seventh Prince, but at the last moment turned against him, plunging the court into chaos and killing the emperor to avenge his father's death.
But for all his calculations, he failed to account for Fang Ying's proud spirit and her refusal to go on living. She ended her life right there.
Amid the carnage of the battlefield, all he received was news of her death.
When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to the time before Fang Ying married Prince Rong. This time, nothing in the world mattered as much as the sway of your skirts stirring my heart.
A scheming, calculating love-struck man x a haughty, petulant young lady

. . . . . . The heroine was so poorly written that she fell into a cliche
