The Prime Minister's Wife Wants a Divorce (Twice Reborn)

★ Chasing His Wife to the Crematorium, Both Leads Reborn

Jiang Suwan married the man she had loved since she was young.

Xie Li, the Chancellor, was exceptionally talented, noble and self-possessed, and so strikingly handsome that no one in the world could compare.

Jiang Suwan was a merchant's daughter, worlds apart from him. But after the Xie family was falsely accused of treason, Xie Li was implicated and demoted. That was how Jiang Suwan got the chance to become his wife.

After their wedding, Jiang Suwan put Xie Li first in everything. He suffered from a leg ailment, so she studied medical books day and night, searching for a cure. He liked women who were refined and well-read, so she restrained her nature and became gentle and accommodating.

Over ten years of marriage, Jiang Suwan stayed by his side as he healed his leg, and as he went from a disgraced man to being cleared of charges and reinstated when the Xie family case was overturned. She, too, rose from an insignificant merchant's daughter to the Chancellor's wife.

But because of their difference in status, everyone in the capital said Xie Li would divorce her and marry a princess.

Jiang Suwan didn't believe it. Xie Li might be cold toward her, but he was an upright man. He would never abandon her, the wife who had stood by him through hardship.

Until she heard his personal servant say to someone, "That Jiang woman is just a merchant's daughter who took advantage of my master when he was down. She isn't fit to be the Chancellor's wife. My master has already prepared the divorce papers..."

Only then did Jiang Suwan realize that if the Xie family hadn't suffered a disaster, Xie Li would have married the noble princess who shared his affection.

In his eyes, her wholehearted love for him was nothing more than a dog taking advantage of a tiger fallen on hard times.

Jiang Suwan died of grief and anger. Before she died, she thought that if she could have another life, she would never love Xie Li again, much less marry him.

The male lead's story:

After plotting to clear the Xie family's name and becoming the youngest Chancellor in the dynasty once more, Xie Li was reborn. He returned to the time before the Xie family case was overturned.

He had only to walk the same path as in his previous life, so Xie Li faced it calmly.

But then the greatest unexpected change appeared.

The wife who had put him first in everything in their previous life, and constantly told him she loved him, handed him a letter of separation in this life.

Here's a coming-soon story. Please add it to your reading lists, my dears!

[Adored Wife, Cherished as Empress]

The merchant Qu family once saved the Emperor's life, so a childhood betrothal was arranged. The legitimate daughter, Qu Xiangwan, grew up with the title of Crown Princess.

Yet on the eve of her wedding, rumors spread that she had beaten her stepmother and was utterly ill-bred. The Crown Prince broke off the engagement and married her younger half-sister instead.

The Qu family thought Qu Xiangwan was an embarrassment and sent her off in a small sedan chair to marry the neglected Fifth Prince, who lived far away on the border.

According to rumors, the Fifth Prince had made a name for himself as a young man and was a fierce warrior, but he looked like a demon and was bloodthirsty and cruel.

Everyone in the capital waited to see how long the arrogant and domineering Qu Xiangwan would survive in the hands of Fifth Prince Wei Heng.

Having heard the rumors about each other, when the two first met, they formed the same opinion: Bad temper, pretty good-looking.

After marriage, Qu Xiangwan nervously managed every affair in the household. She respected her mother-in-law and treated the servants courteously, earning the affection of everyone in the residence.

So everyone felt sorry for her, believing that the Fifth Prince disliked her and left her to suffer neglect.

Until someone caught the Fifth Prince, who was known to keep his distance from women, stopping Qu Xiangwan and demanding, "Aren't you my wife? Why don't you smile at me?"

Wei Heng had thought he was marrying a spoiled and domineering woman. Who could have known she was a gentle, beautiful woman who smiled at everyone except him?

And why did everyone say she neglected him? Wasn't she the one who ran far away as soon as she saw him?

A little scene:

After the Emperor died, the Crown Prince took the throne. His younger half-sister, now Empress, traveled a thousand li to mock Qu Xiangwan for her miserable life on the border, battered by the wind and sun, with yellow sand all over her face.

But instead, she stumbled upon a rebellion in progress.

"It was indeed unfair of me to make you stay in the desert with me, my wife. Do you like the imperial palace? I'll conquer it and give it to you."

At first, Qu Xiangwan thought she was being sent to the border to suffer. Only later did she realize she had been sent there to enjoy herself.

A sweet, doting story of marriage first, love later.
