The Regent Princess and the Marquis's Powerful Wife

A story about a clever, devious heroine and an equally clever, devious hero. She is of noble birth, while his identity is shrouded in mystery.

The phoenix is known as the king of birds and is often regarded as an auspicious symbol, representing nobility and status.

Her name is Fenghuang. She is a phoenix reborn across time and space, a princess of the phoenix clan with noble royal blood. Once the brightest phoenix in the Tianqi Dynasty, soaring through the heavens, she was entrusted with regency in a time of crisis. She is Tianqi's most powerful princess. Though a sheltered young woman, she has been forced into a life utterly unlike the one she longed for. From that day on, the fate of Tianqi became her responsibility.

He is a disabled marquis of distinguished status, yet often criticized, and the youngest imperial tutor in history. Once a prodigy of Tianqi, he could not escape the cruel twists of fate. One accident turned him overnight from a genius admired by all into a young, disabled marquis confined to a corner of the realm.

Yet these two people, so different from one another, are joined in marriage for reasons no one knows.

Though she is of noble birth, there are times when she has no choice. Her position means she must make sacrifices. So, for the sake of peace in Tianqi, and so that she can focus without distractions, she marries the famous young disabled marquis in the imperial capital.

The regent princess's marriage to the disabled marquis sends shock waves through the capital. But no matter how vicious the rumors outside may be, no one can stop their union.

What no one knows is that he is no longer himself. The person everyone sees is an impostor who has taken another's identity and name, and carries a secret.

He is not the man he claims to be, yet must shoulder everything that originally belonged to that man, including the “fiancee” he had cherished since childhood.

He marries a woman who was never meant to be his, believing it is all part of the plan. In the end, even he never imagined that he, renowned for leaving nothing to chance, would miscalculate his own heart. At some point, he had already fallen for her. Because of her, he ultimately has to change his plans and is willing to share the burden that was never his to bear.

She had thought marrying him was simply a way to carry out her father's wishes and temporarily make peace with reality. She shoulders the fate of an entire dynasty alone, facing wolves and tigers closing in from every direction without daring to relax, like a string pulled taut. Only when she occasionally lets her guard down does she realize that she is not alone. Someone has been supporting her in his own way all along, standing at her side to weather the storm together.

At last, the phoenix has found a parasol tree where she can rest. But when the truth comes to light, what path will these two people, each burdened with a secret, take?
