Ming Zhao died in the third year of his wedding.
A well-designed poisoning and the stigma of "suicide due to jealousy" became the end of her short life.
When she woke up again, she became Ming Zhao, an orphan on the border.
Her mother died early and her father was newly deceased, leaving her with only a cinnabar mine and a group of eager relatives.

He would help old farmers repair fences on holidays, secretly bring bones to wild dogs outside the military camp, and after discovering that she was proficient in arithmetic, he would ask with bright eyes: "Girl, would you like to teach me how to read a ledger?"
Thousands of miles away in the capital, someone woke up from a long dream.
Lin Yuxian looked at the faded marriage certificate and finally understood:
