In her previous life, Princess Zhaoyuan, Tang Jinyan, fell in love at first sight with the newly appointed top scholar, Chu Moqing. She willfully requested an imperial decree for their marriage, forcibly keeping him by her side as her Prince Consort.
She believed it was a gesture of profound affection, not realizing that a Prince Consort was barred from holding office. With her own hands, she had shattered the “blue cloud” ambitions he had cultivated through ten years of study by the cold window.
Henceforth, within the high walls of the deep palace, the Princess’s Manor became a gilded cage of gold and jade. He remained indifferent year after year, wallowing in gloom and frustration.
Upon her death, he stood before her grave, sighing only for a life wasted on the wrong person, wishing only to never meet again in the next life.
Reborn, she returns to the moment of their first meeting in the Golden Palace.
Looking at the upright and principled Chu Moqing before her, whose heart belongs to the world, Tang Jinyan finally comes to her senses.
In this life, she is determined to let go and never again be the cage that traps him. She only wishes for his career to be smooth and his ambitions to be realized.
Yet, the obsession carved into her marrow from her past life has not faded, and the fluttering heart from their first meeting in this life remains. Can she truly turn away gracefully, without a hint of lingering attachment?
As he ascends step by step to the peak of power, amidst the treacherous schemes and lurking dangers of the imperial court, can she resist the urge to ensure his safety?
Can the resentment of “never meeting again in the next life” truly be rewritten? Will the fates of these two ultimately drift apart, or will they remain entangled in another way?
