Shen Xisui died the day after her wedding.
When she opened her eyes again, she had transmigrated into the body of a young palace maid in the Ye Ting Bureau and been sent to the Cold Palace to sweep snow. By chance, she saw a boy being pushed into a freezing pond in the middle of winter.
He was Pei Xuan, the Liang Prince's illegitimate son.
By blood, he was the current emperor's nephew. But the Liang Prince and the emperor had fought bitterly for the throne, and this former royal noble had also been confined to the Cold Palace.
Seeing a face eight-tenths like her late husband's, Shen Xisui was so startled that she nearly dropped her broom. Had her husband transmigrated too? But she soon confirmed they weren't the same person.
Shen Xisui, high-EQ version: Heaven itself is making up for the regrets my husband and I had in our previous lives!
Shen Xisui, low-EQ version: Isn't this a perfect stand-in? How convenient. I'm digging right in.
So Shen Xisui took in Pei Xuan, who was on the verge of turning dark, and tenderly cared for him, gradually taming the "little wolf" into a "puppy" who wagged his tail.
Later, the Liang Prince ascended the throne, and Pei Xuan regained his status as a prince. While the other princes waited for imperial edicts arranging their marriages, word spread from Pei Xuan's manor that his birth mother wanted him to marry a woman from a prestigious family.
Shen Xisui put on a wounded expression, then "accidentally" fell into the lotus pond right in front of Pei Xuan.
To take care of her, Pei Xuan punished every servant in the manor who had gossiped about her, then hurried into the palace that very night to refuse the marriage arrangement.
Shen Xisui was quite pleased and decided to "reward" him.
At dusk, beneath the bright winter moon and veils of mist, the night was filled with romance. As Shen Xisui and Pei Xuan clung to each other until they were spent, she unconsciously whispered hoarsely, "A Xuan..."
Suddenly, the person beneath her grabbed her chin. His pale face looked eight-tenths like Pei Xuan's, and the corners of his eyes were tinged with a sickly red. "Suisui, just now... who did you call?"
Shen Xisui's legs instantly went weak.
Why did this man's way of speaking sound so much like her dead husband?
Just then, several attendants hurried over and dropped to their knees in a panic, calling out, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, forgive us!"
Only then did Shen Xisui realize her husband had transmigrated too, and was none other than Pei Xuan's biological older brother, the Crown Prince Pei Xuan!
Shen Xisui's vision went black.
