If you're waiting for updates, you can read The Second Persona Awakened After I Lost My Memories with My Archrival and My Rebellious Disciple Confessed Before He Died.
The actual blurb:
Do you believe in coming back from the dead?
Among the countless believers under heaven, Lan Shi, a Buddhist who believed only in karma and reincarnation, just had his understanding turned upside down.
Someone else's bridal chamber, someone else's red candles, red curtains, and red bedding.
He looked at the woman who had once worshipped him blindly and clung to Lan Yin Temple, refusing to leave even when they tried to drive her away. She had promised countless times to love him in every life, yet after he told her, "I could never fall for you," she had wept and leapt off a cliff. In the end, not even her bones were found.
Now, at this very moment, having "come back from the dead" and become another man's concubine, she smiled triumphantly at him. "Well, Abbot Lan Shi, come to steal the bride?"
What about her family's wrongful conviction? What about the danger facing his subordinates? All the flattery and groveling she'd done before now made every last bit of his trust collapse into a joke.
"You deliberately got close to me, deceived me with vulgar lies, and faked your death to force me to leave the clergy, all so I would bless your marriage to another man?"
Qi Zhuo replied breezily, "What else?"
"You once swore a solemn oath: if you ever deceived me, you would never get what you wished for in this life."
"And? Does Abbot Lan Shi want to claim a place in my heart on my wedding day?"
"I came to tell you that this oath will come true!"
The next day.
After six years of turmoil, the throne that had long stood vacant finally had an heir.
Mei Zhengge was the only prince of the Kingdom of Chishui to be treated kindly in the struggle for the throne.
He had planned to enjoy some peace and quiet, leave the world behind, and transcend its earthly concerns... No, actually, he just wanted to get away from that bunch of lunatics in the imperial family and spend the rest of his life quietly in the mountains.
He never expected some deranged, crazy, and fearless swindler to show up, claiming she loved him so much she'd lost her mind. She talked nonsense, spun perfect lies, and clung to him so relentlessly that he actually believed her?
He avoided mountains, waters, and the gentle breeze; renounced fame, fortune, and the corrupt world. Yet one person came rolling in with all the splendor of the mortal world, becoming his inner demon, his obsession, and the tribulation he could never escape.
This poor monk wants to see, and I want to see even more: this calamity, this illusion, who will be the one to fall into hell?
"My lord!" Qi Zhuo tugged at his sleeve in a hurry. "My becoming his concubine was a sham. I did it to save...!"
The prayer beads came to an abrupt halt. Mei Zhengge cut her off with a cold laugh. "When have you ever been sincere?"
Qi Zhuo tossed her divorce letter and the concubinage contract into the fire. "Tell me, what will it take for you to believe me?"
Mei Zhengge said, "The latest military reports say the border is in turmoil. Go clear your head."
Clear my head by killing people?
Ha!
Three years later, at the desolate frontier.
Mei Zhengge personally presented her with a marriage contract. "I've summoned you repeatedly. Why haven't you accepted the decree?"
Qi Zhuo calmly wiped her sword. "This general is used to cultivating in solitude. Looking after myself is quite nice."
Mei Zhengge relented. "What will it take for you to agree?"
A wicked thought stirred in Qi Zhuo's mind. "How about marrying into my family? The ruler becomes the bride...!"
