In her previous life, Shen Yunxi was determined to marry Jun Xuan. Afraid something might go wrong, she even ruined her own reputation to keep their engagement intact. But after entering the palace, she never received his protection. Even consorts of lower status could bully and humiliate her, wearing her down until she was covered in wounds. In the end, she died the day before he returned from leading a campaign in person. The truth was that Jun Xuan had never believed her. He had only compromised because of her good reputation. Their obsessive past was like the moon reflected in water, a flower seen in a mirror. In the end, all her efforts came to nothing, leaving memories shattered across the ground. Living again, Shen Yunxi looked at her gentle elder sister, who was still safe and well, and her young nephew, and resolved to break off her engagement to Jun Xuan. No matter. If she takes care of her health, she can start over from scratch... Slapping her brother-in-law, turning the tables on her younger sister, talking back to the emperor, and arguing with charming young scholars: there’s nothing Shen Yunxi wouldn’t dare do!
