    Description:
    She, the prime minister’s daughter, was timid and cowardly. Because her engagement fell through, and her reputation was ruined, she was pressured to spill her own blood in the palace hall! Once again opening her eyes, the cowardice had vanished, replaced by coldness, causing others to be intimidated at first glance. Yet no one realized, she was not her.

    He, the current dynasty’s Chu Wang, served the country and brought peace and stability. Peerless and magnificent, all the girls under the Heavens eagerly pursued him! He helped her break off her engagement in the palace hall, but she avoided him at a great distance. He set his mind to pursue her, but she didn’t intend to love him.

    At home, the turbulent currents of government affairs surged violently, disputes from every country continued to spring up everywhere. The stunning her who had been reborn, and how she didn’t bat an eyelid to resolve that terrifying carnage; her name had shaken the whole world!

    When the dust had settled, and the song and dance had ceased, who could hold hands with her and look upon this thousand-year golden age, this flourishing ten thousand miles? Nowadays in this land under the Heavens, everyone spoke of how Chu Wang was cunning and two-faced, he desired the whole world, and was someone they seriously could not provoke. Yet the one they could not provoke even more was his Wang Fei – Yun Qian Meng! Anyone who provoked Chu Wang Fei, must surely be prepared to lose their necks!

    A breathtaking rebirth, a thrilling marriage, in the blink of an eye the once weak woman had become the honorable Chu Wang Fei!

    Wang Fei: In the palace chambers, between the feasts, smiles are hiding daggers, with layers and layers of plots and machinations; those who hurt my flesh and blood will have to pay the price.

    Chu Wang: In these troubled times, carrying the fire beacon, over thousands of miles of fortresses and mountains, I have traveled to the distance to these border stations; if you dare to hurt my wife I will take your life.

    Wang Fei: In another country, in a foreign land, will his thoughts stay pure? The princess of another nation is graceful and beautiful, will “a pair of people for one life” change?

    Chu Wang: Returning home, difficult problems arise. As green hills extend into the distance, beautiful flowers and tender feelings grow deeply; dealing with the ruler and his ministers is harder than rising into Heaven.

    That night, all the monarchs struggled for power, smoke rising all around; that night, the husband and wife were separated, neither humble nor haughty; that night, the land was in great disorder, lying corpses filled the plains; that night, whose heart was confused, whose family was broken, whose country was lost?

    In the chaos of war, during their separation, separated by thousands of miles of unmoving mountains and rivers, the gentleman’s heart and the wife’s heart never changed. In the lonely city without aid, hand in hand as before, they advanced together while chatting lightly about this West Chu country.

    Personal Review:

    The FL was a policewoman in her past life when she suddenly transmigrated into the body of a young girl in ancient times. It turns out that the original girl had just killed herself because her fiancé ended their betrothal.

    The original was weak and timid; people bullied her and made her life miserable. The FL is strong, intelligent, and witty. Unlike some of the cheap and half-assed stories similar to this, the FL is actually smart and it's not just that everyone else around her is stupid.

    Because this is her new life now, she decides that she won't let those people bully her anymore. If you're looking for scheming, evil stepmothers and bitchy stepsisters, you're spot on. And also expect some good-looking guys while you're at it. The romance will be a little slow though because of all the scheming and plot that goes on in the chapters.

    I know some people don't like it because the ML becomes incredibly clingy and obsessed with the FL after they get married. I actually really love that about this story. I'm kind of fed up with asshole ML's who treat the FL horribly, speak horribly, have harems, cheat, abuse them, misunderstand them, and then call it love. I want to read about a ML who's crazy obsessed and in love with his wife and treats her well.

    Thanks for picking this up <3
