Divorcing My Wife

As a girl, Zhou Shaojin had a crush on Prince Zhao Zhan. To help Zhao Zhan get revenge, she framed Prince Zhao Yan, making an enemy of him. Zhao Yan volunteered to go to another country as a hostage. When the two countries went to war, he barely survived and was left disabled.

After many twists and turns, Zhao Yan married Zhou Shaojin and made her his consort. Once she moved into his manor, Zhao Yan treated her coldly. She was careful and ingratiating around him, hoping they could put their resentment behind them. As time passed, Zhao Yan's hatred faded, and he considered accepting her despite their past. Just as the couple were beginning to reconcile, Zhao Yan realized Zhou Shaojin still couldn't forget her former love, Zhao Zhan. His heart turned cold, and the two separated.

Not long afterward, Zhou Shaojin discovered she was pregnant. When the new emperor held his coronation ceremony and Zhao Yan ascended the throne, Zhou Shaojin died in childbirth.

After being reborn, Zhou Shaojin became Zhu Xiyun, a gentle young woman raised among ordinary folk. In a year of disaster, with corpses strewn across the land, Zhu Xiyun fled to the capital. Through a stroke of fate, she entered the palace as a maid and was assigned to serve the unpopular Third Prince. She did her work diligently and looked forward to leaving the palace at twenty-five, marrying a decent man, and living a peaceful life.

The neglected Third Prince had a peculiar temperament, and gradually, the way he looked at Zhu Xiyun began to frighten her. One night, while she was on duty, the usually indifferent Third Prince underwent a sudden change. His sharp, predatory gaze was full of menace.
