How Can Anyone Resist Her Soft, Sweet Charm?

Everyone in the capital knew that the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei was as beautiful as a celestial maiden, the most stunning woman in the city. But she made the wrong choice and married the heir of the Ning family, only to see her family destroyed. Even her corpse wasn't retrieved until much later, by which time it had already begun to rot. Her soul drifted with nowhere to rest.

Reborn, Tang Ru began tormenting the scheming white lotus and punishing the scoundrel, making quite a name for herself. So many princes and noble young men came to propose that they nearly broke down the gates of the marquis's mansion. Even the Crown Prince of neighboring Yan came to join the fray.

The Marquis and his wife were considering which good match to find for their daughter when the Fourth Prince, Shen Hechen, arrived to propose with 999 betrothal gifts, tens of thousands of taels in cash, and countless rare treasures, trinkets, gold hairpins, and delicate ornaments.

“A master once cast a fortune for my daughter and said she was destined to be a phoenix, that she would one day be the mother of the realm and enjoy boundless wealth. What do you think, Your Highness?”

“The realm is not worth half a glance from her. I gave it up for her. If she wants it, I can give it to her, too.”

After a night of upheaval, Shen Hechen truly became an emperor wielding supreme power.

“I offer you the realm as my betrothal gift and promise you a procession stretching a thousand miles. Will you let me pin up your hair, marry me, and share a lifetime of love?”
