    His name is Xiao Sao (I don’t know how to spell his name right but it’s something similar to this). ML meet MC when the MC on the way she return to the capital city (from some village that her dad and the second wife send her to live there). ML comes to catch/kill someone and MC was attacked by some bad guys the second mother send to get rid of her (if my memory isn’t goes wrongly).

    In the early stage of MC’s life after her mother dies. Second mother set up a plan, that there is a priest comes to their house and the priest said the MC brings badluck to her parent so MC need to go to some village for couple of years (actually father and second mother never intend to bring MC back home until they need to send someone into the palace in the 1st life so MC can comes back)

    In 2nd life, MC wake up in her teenage, now she has sickly body/ catch a cold bcuz she jump onto the river. MC already stays in that small village with her 2 maids for a couple of years. She has been bullies by the ppl that second mother tells them (they’re all should be a servant) to “take care of MC”. So they (the should-be-servant) takes all the valuable things from MC and let her stay poorly. They gives MC + 2 maids a lots of work load to exchange with small money or food for living.

    MC jumps onto the river in order to runaway from the womanizer-son of that family. After wake up MC is not that docile girl they can bully anymore. MC finds the way to go back to capital city without waitting meaninglessly for her fater like the previous life. She crush that bad servant’s family and goes back home.

    Second mother knows that her servant meets bad ending and father+second mother has bad reputation from MC’s action/scheme in that small village (MC’s reputation still good) so she tries to get rid of MC b4 the MC can comes back home.

    PS. I don’t sure if the story I typed are all correct. Cuz I heard that this novel has more than 1 version that they publish and I finished it for sometimes already. I hope the main plot should be similar and nothing changes too much.

    8th prince always seem like a gentleman, good looks, well-behave and clever. He did everythings just for himself. Later, he’ll interesting in MC and never knows why MC seem so hateful toward him.

    After he lost...(a big lost that I think you should wait and read the story yourself) he’ll always dream everynight. In that beautiful dream he becomes a king. He has a beautiful girl that always faithful to him and follow every orders he asks her to do. The girl with beautiful eyes that always looks at him with love. That sweet dreams hurt him so much... and he finally ...at the end understands why MC so hateful toward him.

    He lost? What did he lose? I don’t mind getting more spoilers~
    So is the dream his past life? And since he dreamt about becoming king, that means he didn’t become one right?
    Btw are there other important princes besides 8th?

    It seems this story will be going with a complete Wei Yang template. Evil family, husband hooking up with step-sister, hubby remembering the past after falling in love with MC, MC exiled from home cuz of being a bad luck omen etc, all of it are similar to Wei Yang. Anyways, anyone knows what the ML's identity is exactly? Is he an aristocrat or an assassin or something along the line?

    ML holds the “Wang” title and he has an army under him. And this story’s plot is kind of similar to many reincranation story you read b4... but still fun though.

    The important prince that got perished in the previous life. This time MC doesn’t let that happen easily and they not that fall in love with MC, just good to her. The obvious love interest for MC is the ML.

    He lost the fight for the throne. Initially, when the 8th prince first sees the MC, he feels a strange deja vu like she is someone he knows very well. Later, when he sees that she avoids him and seems to dislike him, he feels a sense of loss like something that was his had been stolen away. He doesn't have any knowledge of the past life yet but some feeling of familiarity remains and the fact that the MC seems to know everything about him and judges his actions to the dot makes him feel simultaneously angry, confused as to how she knows and yet somehow happy because she has noticed him enough to know him that well.

    In the end, after he loses the fight for the throne, he dreams about the previous life where he became emperor with the MC's help and he sees further to how the MC's life ended previously as well as how he himself died shortly after at the hands of the ML. He understands how he was flawed and unfit to be emperor as well as why the MC always seemed to hate him. He also realises that he threw away the one person who loved him truly and wasn't just using him as a stairway to power. At the end, he teams up with ML's enemy to try and take back the throne one last time but the ML's enemy tries to kill MC. He gives his life to save her and just before dying tells her he regrets the previous life.

    Incidentally, the one who becomes Emperor in this life is MC's adopted son from the previous life. He also regains his past life memories and treats the MC as his mother.

    It kinda is very much on the Wei Yang template but marginally less gory in the revenge bits. Also, she does manage to protect everyone she cares about. Not as much loss and tragedy as Wei Yang.

    ML's identity is a bit complicated.

    TLDR version: He is the son of the current Emperor's elder brother (from the same mother, the Empress) and a woman who seems to be a transmigrator. The current Emperor wants to make him Crown Prince to compensate his dead brother but ML wants no part of the throne and the complexities that come with it.

    Longer Version:
    The emperor's older brother, who was the crown prince at the time, met a woman who was very skilled in medicine and surgery in the mountains and fell in love. He brought her back to the capital and planned to marry her. The present emperor too fell in love with the same woman but never said anything as she too loved his brother.

    After the death of the previous emperor, there was a succession crisis as the other 8 concubine born sons of the previous emperor rebelled. The Dowager Empress had to make a lot of sacrifices in order to stabilise the throne. Her daughter was married away to a different country in order to get their support, where she was mistreated and died. At the same time, a princess of a neighbouring country wanted to marry the Crown Prince as a condition of providing military support. However, the Crown Prince refused because the transmigrator woman he had married wanted him to be monogamous. The princess was crazy and was willing to marry him even as a concubine but he still refused. Then, his brother, the current Emperor, agreed for him secretly and he was forced to marry the princess. But, he refused to even touch her after marriage and so she plotted to kill the transmigrator woman who was pregnant at the time. She died giving birth to ML and the Crown Prince hid his son because he was afraid the crazy princess would kill him too and had him adopted by a noble Wang and his wife who had no children of their own. He also made the Wang and his wife promise that his son's birth wouldn't be revealed and that he wouldn't be forced to become the emperor. The crown prince then died himself, making his brother, the current emperor, his successor.

    The current emperor holds great guilt in his heart because he thinks the whole mess was created because he secretly agreed to the princess' marriage request. He constantly looked for his elder brother's son to make him the emperor which is why he never named any of his own sons as Crown Prince. When he found out that ML was his nephew, he tried to take him away from the Wang who had been entrusted with him. The Wang wanted to keep his vow to the ML's father and rebelled against the emperor which ended with him and his wife dying. The ML then took on his foster father's mantle and place as the head of the nation's dark army (spies, assassins, ninjas), completing missions with his life on the line in order to keep his current identity and not become the Crown Prince/ next emperor.

    ML first met MC when she was very young and had a soft corner for her since then. MC's mom was dying and she wanted to go to the temple to pray for her recovery. The second mother, who was then the concubine, arranged for her father to forbid her from going. She sneaks away anyway and while at the temple she meets the ML who was wounded on a mission to the neighbouring kingdom and nurses him. She gets caught stealing supplies and food for him and beaten. ML notices that she tries to keep her hurt from him and remembers her as the last innocent bit of softness in his life. He promises that he will help her in the future when she needs him. Later, he sends his spy to check on her identity and he mistakes her step sister for her. After her rebirth, when he meets her, he is attracted to her but ends up having to help her sister due to the past debt he mistakenly thinks he owes. Later, he finds out that MC was the one who helped him and he realised that he was in love with her. However, because he helped the stepsister, MC doesn't like him and avoids him. He has to take a lot of pains to convince her to marry him in the end.

    She first destroys the stepbrother's chances at winning first place in the exams to become and official by exposing the corrupt examiner who helped him in the past life. Simultaneously, she starts a letter conversation with a poor scholar who in her previous birth was the actual first place winner but was demoted due to her brother's tricks. During the conversation, she slowly convinces him to learn flexibility which had held him back in his career previously. The stepbrother is then lured into a brothel auction and made to overbid beyond his financial resources. He loses a finger as penalty and it becomes widely known that he is a wastrel.

    She supports one of the other concubines who came from a brothel against the stepmother. Finally, the stepmother loses her child and is starved to death by the father. The sister gets her face scarred and reputation ruined and is sent to a nunnery. There she somehow learns some arts which add to her charm and heal her face. She comes back from the nunnery after a few years and her mother convinces the father to let her stay. However, she needs to drink fresh chicken blood and eat unclean things regularly to maintain her beauty and charm. She ends up eating her unborn brother who was the child her mother lost. This is found out by everyone and she is shunned. She is later killed. The stepbrother dies in jail due to her machinations (I don't remember the exact details). The father loses power, money, family and position. MC's brother succeeds in rising to a good position within the army and returns. His position rises well above her father and they separate the family. The father also dies later, I think.

    So MC and ML meet when MC is on her way back to the capital from the country. She stays overnight at a temple and ML ends up in her room hiding from assassins. The next time she meets him is in the capital when she is at a party in the Shen house. Shen family is allied with her father to do some corrupt things and make money. The Shen master recorded all the details of his deeds and earnings in a book which he hid in his house. MC knows the locations of where he hid the more incendiary items that could get him in trouble and goes to steal the book. She meets the ML there trying to do the same thing. She gives him the book and tells him the hiding places for the other proofs in the Shen manor and says as long as he gets the Shen family in trouble it doesn't matter to her. He saw how she immediately went to the hiding spot and extracted the book like she already knew it was there and gets suspicious. So, he asks his spies to check her background.

    They meet again during the Lantern Festival where her stepsister falls into the water and is saved by a random man who then claims to have had private dealings with her. Stepsister had plotted that MC would be caught in this situation but MC turned the tables and stepsister was the one who got humiliated. ML stepped in to say that the item found on the stepsister belonged to him because he had a misunderstanding that the stepsister was the one who had helped him when they met as children. MC gets mad at him because anyone who helps her stepsister (Jiang Su Su - JSS) is an enemy in her eyes.

    MC has a blood brother (Jiang Xin - JX) who had gone into the army when she was exiled to the country. In her previous life, JX was killed by the stepmother (Xia Yan - XY) to prevent him from getting in her own son (Jiang Chao - JC). MC wants to save him in this life. She gets her maternal relatives, the Zhao family to help through various machinations. At the same time, the general (Guan Liang Han - GLH) who leads the army which JX is part of, comes back to the capital ahead of the army to meet with ML. ML and GLH are disciple brothers from the same school/master and work closely with each other. While they're talking, ML sees MC riding in man's clothes with the Zhao family to rescue JX. He follows them and helps in the fight against JX's assassins. He takes the assassins in custody as rebels who attacked the army for interrogation to help MC get revenge. So, MCs opinion of him gets a little better.

    Later, XY arranges for MC to be ambushed by bandits on the way to a temple. MC forces JSS and JC to go along with her and they get caught up in the ambush. ML comes to the rescue but unfortunately, MC jumps off a cliff before he can reach her. She jumps off knowing that she will get to the bottom mostly unhurt and can stay safe till rescuers arrive but ML doesn't know. When he reaches the spot, he drops an ornament and MC's maid recognizes it as one of a pair of earrings that MC's mom left her which she cherished. ML had picked up the earring from the girl who helped him as a child and now realizes that MC was the one to help him. He jumps off the cliff to save her.

    That's the moment when the ML falls in love, I think. He connects the child who helped him despite her own pain when he himself was a teen suffering from a burden too big to bear with the girl who now is struggling to get stronger and protect her loved ones and he can't help but fall in love.
    There's obviously a lot more nuance and backstory here that I've left out. For instance, there is a plot thread where the MC destroys the Prime Minister's family, the Li family, for their atrocities against her adopted son in her previous life and their attempts to harm her in this one. This ties into the whole picture which the ML is building of the MC, trying to figure out her character and how she knows things. There's also a really cute side plot where the ML's housekeeper and servants keep trying to matchmake him with MC because they are literally desperate to get him married off and he has never so much as looked at any other woman before the MC. The ML's friends also keep teasing him about the MC because this is the first time they've seen him less than dismissive of any woman around him. The MC's adopted son is also an interesting character with his own motivations and place in the story. The adopted son was killed painfully in the previous life and he too reincarnates with his memories of his previous life intact like the MC. The relationship between him and the MC is very nicely built.
