Power and Prestige in a Golden Age

Everyone says the Chancellor of Liang loves someone with all his heart.

For her, he even took the wife of his own ruler.

Everyone says the Crown Prince of Zhao dotes on someone beyond measure.

For her, he even toppled the two kingdoms of Liang and Yu.

But in the end, he could only watch her die before his eyes. Her last words to him were: “If there is another life, I hope we never meet again.”

She loved him deeply, and she hated him just as much.

Song Qinghuan felt as if she had the world on easy mode.

She died while carrying out a mission, only to open her eyes and discover she had transmigrated into the body of a princess of a kingdom.

The princess might not be favored, but at least she had food and clothes, and her life was much better than her previous one, spent dodging bullets.

But her comfortable days didn’t last long before someone set their sights on her.

She could accept being sent off for a political marriage, but why had the Chancellor, who once asked for her hand on behalf of his ruler, set his sights on her instead?

Daring to steal a woman from the ruler of a kingdom was practically asking for death.

Who would have thought the Chancellor’s identity was no ordinary one? In a flash, he became the Crown Prince of another kingdom.

Unfortunately, the deeper the love in the past, the colder the reality.

In the end, her expression resolute, she leaped from the towering city wall before his eyes on the day he returned victorious, becoming a flower blooming in a pool of blood.

Jun Shu, everyone says I’m your weakness. If you’re going to be hurt, then perhaps I must hurt myself first.

And yet, after all that, she still wasn’t dead! She had been reborn three years before she first met him.

In this new life, she had only one wish:

Stay as far away from him as possible. The farther, the better!

But

She wasn’t the only one who had returned. He had too.

Having lost her in his past life because of all their misunderstandings and entanglements, this time he would cherish her and love her like a treasure, granting her a lifetime of peaceful happiness and protecting her so she could live carefree and joyful.

A realm stretching ten thousand miles could never compare to her flowerlike smile.

Song Qinghuan thought that trading the deep love of her past life for the favor she received in this one wasn’t such a bad deal after all.

1. In his previous life, the male lead’s devotion to the heroine was obsessive. In this life, he’s just as possessive and lovesick, but he hides it much better! No angst, no angst, no angst. That’s important, so I’ll say it three times.

2. The leads are both virgins in both their lives, so feel free to jump in.

3. Set in a fictional world with four kingdoms. Political intrigue is secondary, romance is the main focus.

4. Check out Yaoyao’s rebirth story, The Detective Princess Consort: Please Take Your Seat. The heroine is sweet and easy to win over. She pursues the hero at first, then he dotes on her later. Sweet romance, no angst.
