Reborn to the very day she was demoted, Noble Consort Su Su finally came to her senses.
In her previous life, she had been mad with love. In the end, her loyal servants were scattered, her father and brothers died tragically, and she herself was left with nothing but a cup of poisoned wine in the depths of the Cold Palace.
In this life, she put away all her sharp edges. She wanted nothing more than to save money, wait for the right moment to fake her death, and escape far from this man-eating cage.
But the emperor who had always upheld “preventing powerful in-laws” as an iron rule panicked instead.
He blocked her from leaving the palace, promoted her rank, and laid the world’s greatest treasures before her.
Yet she merely lowered her gaze and folded her sleeves.
“Thank you for Your Majesty’s grace.”
In the end, just to earn a single backward glance from her, he was willing to betray the ancestral rules: leaving the six palaces empty, handing over the phoenix seal, and elevating her father and brothers to the heights of power.
