The Crown Prince Marries Into His Wife’s Family

After transmigrating as a baby, Cen Xi spends seventeen years proving that if the timing is right, she can transmigrate back and find her first love:

Day One of the Journey Back:

She meets a crown prince who looks exactly like her ex-boyfriend. So he can transmigrate, too, but he’s been here for seventeen years without looking for her. She starts sharpening her knife.

Day Two of the Journey Back:

After exhausting every means to be sure, she concludes that this overly young crown prince isn’t her ex. There’s still one possibility: his father might be her ex. He must have been in a hurry to have such a grown son. She starts sharpening her knife.

Day Three of the Journey Back:

He’s not her ex, nor is he her ex’s son. Fine, she’ll just take it as a bonus surprise from the goddess of fortune. But what’s this about him having a fiancée? Is he trying to have it both ways? She starts sharpening her knife.

Scene One:

The heir of the Gu Hun Kingdom strikes fear into everyone who hears of him. He kills whoever he likes, friend or foe:

Any man who flirts with his big sister must die.

Any man who displeases his big sister must die.

Any man his big sister wants dead must die.

“Big sister, I’m afraid of thunder. Let me sleep with you.” His soft, sweet voice carries from inside the room.

Outside, a guard stumbles, nearly swallowing his tongue, thunderstruck.

The heir is afraid of thunder? The heir who spent nearly three years trapped in the Forest of Ghostly Wails, killing countless people, is afraid of thunder? At this rate, will the elite guards be afraid of cockroaches, too?

Scene Two:

They say the chancellor of the Great Jing Kingdom is determined to spoil the queen until she is the most exceptional and imperious woman in the world.

“Your Majesty! The queen looked twice at a handsome young scholar yesterday and said his eyes resemble that prince.”

“She must have taken a liking to him. Have him captured and sent to the villa tonight.”

“Your Majesty! The princess doesn’t seem satisfied. She said...”

“What did she say?”

“She said there’s no need to send her any more men from now on, unless the man is more handsome, more refined, and more capable than you. Otherwise...”

“Otherwise what?” His handsome brow furrowed. It lent him a touch of coolness in the dark, but he still seemed perfectly unruffled.

“Otherwise, Your Majesty, you’ll have to take his place...”
