The Worthy Prince

[A reborn, revenge-seeking drama queen of a young lady × a cunning, patient, ambitious power broker]

A new male lead | Marriage first, love later | The male lead's longtime crush comes true; the second male lead gets his comeuppance

Shen Yizhi never imagined that her husband, Mo Yunxiu, with whom she had always maintained a respectful distance, would personally send her to the execution ground.

When she opens her eyes again, she has been reborn before marrying him. Shen Yizhi immediately schemes to find herself a new protector: the favored confidant of the man who is about to become Regent, the Heibei heir.

To hold on to this protector, she uses him to take revenge and tear her ex-husband to shreds, deceiving him with a stream of lies.

She says, "Your Highness, I have long admired you. Heaven and earth can attest to my sincerity."

She says, "My heart is with you, so I know exactly what I want."

She says, "My husband is the pride of my heart, the center of my world."

His heart is as hard as stone? No problem. She just has to sweet-talk him!

In front of the man rumored in her past life to be the Smiling King of Hell, Shen Yizhi, a refined young lady, acts tender and affectionate.

But one day, when she is clinging to Xiao Wu and leaning in to kiss him, she hears him say, "Yaoyao, stop messing around."

A distant memory suddenly comes rushing back. No one has called her by that name in so long.

The pain of being beheaded in her previous life is still fresh. Shen Yizhi promptly drops a divorce agreement and runs.

Touched? No way! She doesn't dare be touched at all!

Xiao Wu knew from the very start that Shen Yizhi was putting on an act. He wanted to see what she would do.

Knowing she wanted revenge, he indulged her in every way. But just as he began to give her his whole heart, he received a divorce agreement from his wife.

He was stunned!

To win his wife back, he brought her the white eagle she'd loved as a child, all the way from Heibei, as a birthday present. His wife refused it.

He went off to pray with utmost devotion, making three kowtows at every step for forty-nine days, to obtain a Buddhist relic for her. His wife wouldn't even look at it.

His subordinate couldn't bear to watch and twisted the knife: "The young princess even brewed wine for someone earlier. Looks like Your Highness won't get to taste it now."

Xiao Wu coughed up a mouthful of black blood in a fit of rage.
