A Prosperous Age: The Peerless Grace of the Legitimate Daughter

In her previous life, she was one of the capital's two great beauties, with delicate features and unmatched elegance.

But her family used her, her friends betrayed her, and she gave her heart to the wrong man.

She thought she had found the perfect match, a marriage ordained by fate. Who could have guessed it was all someone else's scheme?

“In this capital, one peerless beauty is enough. You, my dear sister, should go to hell.” Her closest friend stood beside the man she believed was her true love, smiling faintly.

Her beloved glanced coolly at the woman, who was a wretched mess in prison, put his arm around the other woman, and said flatly, “The road to the underworld is so lonely. Let Yu'er accompany you.”

“You're so heartless! He's your child too! I curse you two treacherous lovers: may you fall into hell for all eternity and never find peace!”

Each word dripped with blood.

Yu'er, let your mother's blood nourish and water the red spider lilies blooming along the road to the underworld. All you have to do is walk safely along it.

If she is given another life, she will be ruthless and vengeful. She will forgive not a single person who wanted to harm her or actually did.

Reborn, she smiles faintly. No one knows that she once entered hell and could find no light.

In his previous life, he had been ambitious and calculating, with a heart as cold as ice.

He thought he was destined to be cold and detached, never bound by anything.

Then he met her and fell in love with her. It was truly beyond his control. Having her is fate, and a blessing.

Even if he lost a kingdom spanning ten thousand miles, what would it matter?

After all their twists and turns over the years, all he has ever wanted is her, and only her.

A little scene:

“I hear Your Highness is known for being cold and heartless. What brings you to my chambers today?”

The man presses his lips together. “That's just a rumor. Haven't you already experienced my passion for yourself?”

“So Your Highness is one thing in public and another in private!”

“Not at all. I've always been passionate. Other people simply can't see it,” he says with a perfectly straight face.

“...” The woman is speechless. The man before her truly is the very picture of a hypocritical gentleman.
