The Phoenix's Plot: The Imperial Consort Who Stained the World with Her Glory

He was reborn with memories of his previous life. In his past life, one of them was a prince who held power over all under heaven, while the other was the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister, raised in the seclusion of her inner chambers. Yet one ended up disgraced and perishing in a sea of flames, while the other was left half-dead, driven mad and consumed by evil. In this life, he returned from hell to the age of five and built up his own power, expanding it step by step, all so he could wait for that woman to come back. Fortunately, he changed everything from the very beginning. She was no longer his nephew's wife, but the princess consort he could rightfully marry in a grand wedding procession! The course of their past life has quietly changed. What will their ending be this time? [A Memorable Scene] Candlelight flickered in the room, casting a rosy glow over the woman's stunning face. “Jingzhi, do you still mean what you said before?” The man deliberately played dumb. “What did I say? I've said too much to remember.” “Since that's the case, it's probably better that you've forgotten. Then I won't have to feel embarrassed,” Xia Xiran murmured. Shangguan Yi smiled. “Ranran, I've been waiting a long time for this day, too.” [Excerpts] Past life: Shangguan Ze: I don't want to let go, and I don't want to give you up. So I'll hate you in my heart. Xia Xiran: The night wind stirs beyond the window, candlelight falls upon my dreaming soul. Only one person truly knows and understands me. Shangguan Yi: I can only blame that fleeting glimpse you gave me that day. Your beauty made it impossible for me to part from you, and from then on, I was bound to love you through every life and all eternity. This life: Shangguan Ze: My greatest regret in this life is that I failed to understand my own heart. Shangguan Yi: What are power and riches to me? I could give up the realm, but I could never give you up. Xia Xiran: Meeting you must have used up all the good fortune I had in this life! P.S. Both the male and female leads are reborn!
