Synopsis
Liu Shunhua only realized she was merely a decoration after marrying into the Prime Minister’s mansion.
Her husband, eager to marry his beloved, coldly watched her suffer humiliation in the inner quarters.
Only her disabled uncle, He Xuandu, was her mentor and friend.
He would bring her a lamp on rainy nights, teach her to read and understand principles, and tell her, “You deserve a wider world.”
A great fire broke out in the Prime Minister’s mansion, and Liu Shunhua and He Xuandu perished in the flames.
Reborn at sixteen, Liu Shunhua excitedly ran to the Prime Minister’s mansion.
There, she saw the cheerful and refined He Xuandu from her past life, holding a feather fan, dressed in flamboyant attire, and… with both legs intact.
She rushed forward in surprise: “Your leg? Your leg?”
He retreated in terror: “Help! Someone help! A lecherous woman is groping me in the street!”
Liu Shunhua: …He Xuandu’s leg is healed, but his brain seems to have gone mad.
***
He Xuandu had witnessed the coldness and indifference of the world since childhood, his face wearing countless masks.
Until that day, amidst the lush willows in the spring breeze, he met Liu Shunhua.
At first, seeing her deliberately approach him, he only wanted to scare her away.
But later, she helped him get rid of troubles, accompanied him in cockfighting and dog racing, and gave him handmade trinkets to cheer him up…
Then, he broke his leg and traveled thousands of miles back to Chang’an.
His thought was: even if I have to crawl, I will see Liu Shunhua.

In her previous life, Song Yuhe was a failed white lotus. While staying at the Marquis’s mansion, she repeatedly interfered with the relationship between the young Marquis and Lu Zhaoyun, and was crushed by him, losing her reputation and dying tragically. On her deathbed, she realized that Lu Zhaoyun was like a destined heroine from a folktale, while she was merely a pathetic supporting character. Reborn, she resolved to stay away from conflict and Lu Zhaoyun. Then, she found a frail, dying boy. The boy was aloof and distant, yet incredibly handsome. Song Yuhe’s heart softened, and she cared for him tenderly. One day, she inadvertently glimpsed the boy’s jade pendant… Oh no! Wasn’t this the future powerful Zhao Yuanyin?! In her past life, he was Lu Zhaoyun’s ultimate sycophant, and his fate was even worse than hers! Later, to save her family, Song Yuhe had no choice but to curry favor with this most powerful minister. She steeled herself and resorted to her old tricks: “Lord Zhao, my hands are so cold…” Zhao Yuanyin immediately took off his cloak and wrapped it tightly around her. “They’re all bullying me…” Zhao Yuanyin turned around and beat them until they were crying for their parents. Song Yuhe: ??? So Lord Zhao falls for this! Mini-drama: At the spring banquet, Song Yuhe lazily complained to her best friend: I don’t know what Zhao Yuanyin likes about Lu Zhaoyun? Back then, Lu Zhaoyun only gave him a piece of pastry, but I saved his life. He should like me more than her. A clear, crisp voice rang in my ears: “Okay.” Content Tags: Courtly Romance, Rebirth, Sweet Romance, Lighthearted, Liu Shunhua, He Xuandu, He Xuanhui, Liu Tanghua, Liu Jiusheng, Liu Chang, Others: Requesting Pre-orders.
