In my past life and this one, I had always been a sickly thing. When the emperor wanted to make me the Crown Prince’s Liangdi Consort, I refused.

Entering the Eastern Palace would only mean waiting to die in a different place.

Then, one day, the Crown Princess passed away. The Crown Prince, overcome with despair, actually confessed to an old crime: the pit burial of his own revered teacher.

The court and the realm were shaken. The Crown Prince was deposed, then took his own life. The emperor sank into grief and died soon after.

My elder brother and father were loyal and righteous all their lives, yet both fell in battle-one in the northwest, the other on the southern frontier.

The Liang Kingdom collapsed. I coughed blood in the depths of the inner residence and died.

Fearing she would be humiliated after my death, my personal maid took up a dagger and followed me into death.

When I opened my eyes again, I heard that the emperor intended to marry me into the Eastern Palace.

Just as Father was about to refuse, I stopped him at once.

“Father, I’ll marry him!”
