The daughter of a founding general was framed. Unmarried and pregnant, she was branded a fallen woman and scorned by the world. On a scorching winter day, she jumped into a pond and ended her life. She was buried in the You Garden. Five years later, a hapless grave robber went to rob her tomb and was scared to death by the resurrected mother and child. The tale was passed down for generations as a legend.
------The following is the real blurb------
Meng Fuchen is a 21st-century assassin. Her specialties are laziness and being cold-hearted, ruthless, arrogant, aloof, and indifferent. She has a sense of humor, but can also be scatterbrained and downright split-personality.
He is the crown prince of the day, bedridden and confined to his chambers for twenty years. His specialties are scheming and being cold-hearted, ruthless, composed, and dazzling. He is flawless, like a god, which is complete nonsense.
When her son, on the run, meets him:
“Father, they hit me!” The young master throws himself into his arms, looking aggrieved.
“Father will stand up for you. I’ll tie them up and let my son hit them back.”
That was faster than lightning.
When she, chasing after her son, meets him:
“Father, she’s trying to kidnap me.” Her son’s shameless eyes gleam with cunning.
What a good son!
“Father will stand up for you. I’ll tie her up and take her back to my room.”
The little guy’s expression changed. He shoved the man aside, planted his hands on his hips, and pointed angrily at him. “My mother has a man already. You’re not allowed to betray my father!”
The embarrassed woman rubbed her forehead, pulled her son behind her, and struck a pose. “Your Highness, my husband probably isn’t dead yet, so I can’t do anything that would betray him. How about this: once he dies, it won’t be too late.”
The man nodded in agreement. “Did he just call me Father?”
Meng Fuchen smiled faintly. Your Highness, being your lifeline is pretty unlucky. I’m afraid one day I might get so fed up I kick myself into ruin.
“Imperial Brother, Fuchen has already returned to her family. How can you say you don’t know?”
“I say I don’t know, so I don’t. I’m sick, you know.”
-------I promise, the following really is the real blurb-------
As power shifts like sand swept away by waves, the court becomes a storm of intrigue. Who is the target of this carefully planned scheme?
She reveals her sharp edge and moves the clouds with a delicate hand. She destroys three cities, takes control of six ministries, seizes the gang’s token, and brings down nine gates. She rises to the heavens. Watch as she turns the world upside down.
The legitimate daughter has to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to return home? Then I’ll make you kneel three times and kowtow nine times to welcome me.
The prince has cleverly arranged my death? Then I’ll let you watch the prince die.
You want a scumbag to violate me and ruin my reputation? I’ll give you the wedding night you’re wishing for.
She pulls off one counterattack after another with ease, so why does this elusive man keep catching her in the act? And now he’s even set his sights on her son?
Son, open the door and sic the dogs on him!
He said: “You take a city, and I’ll take a city. You take a kingdom, and I’ll take a kingdom. You overturn the heavens, and I’ll flatten them. I’ll show you that behind every powerful woman stands an extraordinary man. Even if one day you overturn the path of reincarnation and can’t return, I’ll carve a road through the underworld to bring you back to my side.”
He said: “Whatever I want, I’ll get, no matter what. Even if it’s you, I’ll take you, even if all I get is your body!”
He said: “If fate turns upside down and you grow tired of everything, remember to look back. I’ll be here.”
He said: “I don’t like her, and I don’t love her. But if anyone dares hurt her, no matter who they are, I’ll make them pay, wherever they may be.”
-----------Little Scene---------
Inside the Hall of Peace:
“Father, Fuchen has suffered so much. I failed in my duty as her fiancé, and the guilt is eating me up. I want to restore her title as my Third Princess Consort, first to make it up to her, and also because she has always been the only one in my heart.”
The emperor nodded. “And what does Fuchen think?”
Before she could answer, a shameless, scheming man spoke languidly. “Third Brother, unless my memory is failing me, your future Third Princess Consort was supposed to be Meng Qingge, who is now buried in ashes in the You Garden, wasn’t she?”
The Third Prince’s expression changed. “Imperial Brother, don’t you know that Qingge is Fuchen, and Fuchen is Qingge?”
“I don’t. I only know your Third Princess Consort is Meng Qingge, and my Crown Princess is Meng Fuchen. Fuchen is Fuchen, and she’s my lifeline.” The man smiled faintly and shot the woman a flirtatious glance.
Meng Fuchen smiled. Your Highness, being your lifeline is really unfortunate. I’m afraid one day I’ll lose my patience and kick myself into ruin.
“Imperial Brother, Fuchen has already returned to her family. How can you say you don’t know?”
“I say I don’t know, so I don’t. I’m sick, and you have a grudge...”
