My Sister Stole the Life I Had in My Past Life, So I Turned Around and Married into the Prince’s Manor

In her previous life, Gu Jinglan studied military strategy and trained guards for her father and brothers. She even went to battle in armor as a woman, fighting for years until she finally drove back the Beidi and won her whole family a life of glory. But when the army returned to the capital, the military achievements went to her father and brothers, while her title as a commandery princess and her betrothal to the Crown Prince became shackles that held her captive. Her own family used soul-locking needles to cripple her martial arts, imprisoned her in their mansion, and left her to die in a fire set by her younger sister. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the day the sisters were to choose which family to stay with. Her younger sister, also reborn, was first to stay at the general’s residence, hoping to follow the path Gu Jinglan had taken in her previous life and become the Crown Princess, exalted above all others. Gu Jinglan did not fight her for it. Instead, she followed her mother, who had divorced and remarried, to the Jingwu Marquis’ residence. Her sister thought she had snatched a fortune beyond imagining, not knowing that without Gu Jinglan and her mother, the good-for-nothing members of the Gu family would never be able to hold the border three years later. As soon as Gu Jinglan sets foot in the capital, she is kidnapped and accidentally ends up in the carriage of Prince Su, Xie Linyuan. One has a damaged soul meridian and only thirty days to live. The other is cursed by a life-devouring baleful force and could drop dead at any moment. She uses his royal qi to nurture her soul, while he uses her blood talismans to suppress the curse. The two strike a hundred-day deal. From then on, the Marquis’ residence’s life-locking formation, the palace’s shared-fate curse, the military weapons scandal on the northern frontier, and the Gu family’s old stolen-credit case all come to light one after another. The Gu family wants to steal her military achievements, so she ruins their reputations; Her sister wants to take her fate, so she tears apart her sister’s dream of wealth and status with her own hands; The powerful officials at court laugh that she only knows how to play at mysticism, but one talisman from her sends a hundred ghosts fleeing and shakes the land. But why is Prince Su, who agreed they would each get what they wanted, now refusing to give her back?
