She was born to be an empress. Beauty like immortal, talented in many aspects and a great politician.

She married to the crown prince at the age of 11. Engendered two heirs for the kingdom. She really lives a perfect life. 

Shining crown and beautifully embroidered gown. Tingling hairpins on her head doesn't make her happy. Is it too greedy to ask for more? Is it insolent to say that she's unpleased with her life? 

Because the emperor never looked at her. Because he doesn't favor her, her days are full of sorrow. 

All she ever wanted is him.

"He loved once. This time, he'll outlive love itself." •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• A tale of love lost, lives reclaimed, and a second chance written in blood. Liu Changsheng entered the imperial household not as a schemer, but as a man hopelessly in love-with no ambition, no desire for power. Married to the Fourth Prince, he believed love was enough. He was wrong. Betrayed, assaulted, discarded, and imprisoned for crimes he never committed, Liu Changsheng died like a nobody-forgotten by the court and cursed by fate. But on the brink of death, clarity struck. And then... he woke up. Back in his maternal home, injured in a bandit attack, he discovers the impossible: he has been sent ten years into the past. His family is still alive. His future, unwritten. This time, he vows to change everything. No more palace. No more princes. No more love stories written in sorrow. He will marry a normal person from a quiet place and live a quiet life far from the empire's poisoned politics. But fate has never been one to grant peace easily. As old players return and new secrets unravel, Liu Changsheng must walk a razor-thin line between survival and vengeance. In a world where court politics bleed, betrayal is currency-and love... love may yet have the cruelest price. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🖋️ Author's Note: This is a story we'll unravel together. I don't know where it's headed yet-but neither does Liu Changsheng. Let's find out what fate has in store. 📸 Cover credit: Image sourced via our very own ChatGPT.
