(Strong male and female leads, both devoted to each other, extremely doted on)
Wei Wanyun was reborn.
In her previous life, someone plotted to marry her off to the heir of Prince Jing.
Later, Prince Jing rebelled and toppled the imperial court, and his heir became the crown prince overnight!
Before she could get used to being crown princess, someone sent her to the afterlife with a cup of poisoned wine.
Remembering how she had been left to sit alone in the Eastern Palace, Wei Wanyun decided that next time she saw the heir of Prince Jing, she would take the long way around!
"A Chu, do you think the heir of Prince Jing will hate this outfit?"
Wei Wanyun deliberately picked out an outfit he was rumored to hate most and showed it to the steward she trusted above all others.
Gu Jinzhi smiled coolly. "Of course."
So Wei Wanyun happily went off to the Peach Blossom Banquet she couldn't avoid.
But she didn't know there was more to Gu Jinzhi's answer: Of course he wouldn't hate it. He likes anything as long as it's you.
At first, Gu Jinzhi cared only about power and empire.
Later, he realized that this young girl could easily sway his emotions.
After struggling and finding no way out, Gu Jinzhi only fell deeper, and for the first time decided to accept his fate.
But then he suddenly remembered the things that had happened between them in their previous lives.
Thinking of how sharp-tongued and dismissive he had been, Gu Jinzhi broke into a cold sweat.
He hadn't been able to protect her in their previous life. This time, he would protect her at all costs, crush everyone who had ever bullied her into the dirt, and turn the empire upside down!
What Gu Jinzhi hadn't expected was that the biggest problem he would face was the young girl he had cherished in the palm of his hand in both lives. It seemed she didn't want him anymore.
