Dark Fragrance

Before his rebirth, Shang Junyan's view of Su Xinyi: Despicable and shameless, cunning and deceitful, cruel and ruthless. He dreams of divorcing her.
After his rebirth, Shang Junyan's view of Su Xinyi: Beautiful and kind-hearted, open and upright, full of righteousness. He dreams of marrying her.
Before her rebirth, Su Xinyi's view of Shang Junyan: Generous and understanding, steady and dependable, a true gentleman, worth marrying.
After her rebirth, Su Xinyi's view of Shang Junyan: Petty-minded, pretentious, a real scoundrel, won't marry him even if she dies.
In her previous life, Su Xinyi had a difficult life. She jumped from a countryside girl to the only daughter of the fourth family in Qi Country Duke's Mansion. She lived cautiously and carefully. The other three families of the Duke Mansion coveted her family's property and regarded her, who had returned to her ancestry, as a thorn in their eyes, hating her and wanting her gone.
After getting married, her husband disliked her, her mother-in-law was unhappy, and they forced her to die so that her husband could marry a noble woman. Su Xinyi burned down the Pingjing Prince Mansion, so they could all die together.
After her rebirth, Su Xinyi fears nothing. First, she destroys her own marriage, then she dutifully serves her birth mother, hoping she lives a hundred years. Finally, she repays the Crown Prince's help in her previous life, praising him as a good and generous person whenever she meets someone, helping the poor and uplifting the needy, a great man indeed.
The great Crown Prince: I heard someone is spreading the word that I am a good person.
The Crown Prince, praised into his role, finds out that the little girl who has been praising him is actually meeting someone else for a blind date, a little liar telling lies!
His heart, once black as coal, gradually gains warmth because of her.
In the end, the little liar marries the very successful Crown Prince whom she praised, and her scumbag ex-husband becomes the Crown Prince's servant.

Once the Crown Prince Joins In

Su Xinyi understood—it was to create a stance of uncompromising confrontation between the Su Family and the Zhu Family, which would give the civilian officials a sense of balanced power.


At that thought, she couldn't help but laugh, "It seems like it might actually work."


"Of course it will, at least for the next five years," Yan Junchu said with a smile.


Su Xinyi heaved a sigh, "Yes, there won't be any issues for a short while, but in the long run, it will still depend on each family's choices."


The higher the power, the more likely it is to make people lose their sanity. How things will turn out in the long run indeed requires one step at a time.


Naturally, Su Xinyi hoped that both the Su and Zhu families would do well, but as the Empress, she definitely wouldn't be able to leave the palace often in the future. Therefore, she dared not comment on the future of the two families.
