Qing Shanshan

Murong Jiu, the Ninth Young Miss of the Marquis Mansion, was ugly and talentless, and her fate was to harm her relatives. She was raised in the countryside from a young age. Due to her exceptional medical skills, she was used by the Crown Prince, who drained her of all her value and then threw her into a deep well to drown.

Only before her death did she realize she had been switched at birth. Others were rightfully enjoying everything that should have been hers; later, all her family died for her, becoming stepping stones for the Crown Prince!

Reincarnated, she returned like a vengeful ghost from hell, making her enemies tremble with fear, ready to seek revenge for each grievance.

Unexpectedly, she unintentionally became the darling of her biological family, which made her retract her sharp edges.

As the substitute Princess Consort of Prince Ling, she and Prince Ling were a fake couple, intent only on finding the real father of the child in her womb, yet unaware that the man from that night was right in front of her…

Reborn as the Crippled King's Beloved

The Empress Dowager practiced vegetarianism and chanted Buddhist scriptures, her mind tranquil, and her face betrayed little trace of the years.


If she wore more colorful attire, she might appear even younger, but the Empress Dowager always favored simplicity over bright reds and purples, preferring plain colors, which lent her an air of utmost purity and kindness.


Although Consort Jing often wore clothes similar to those of the Empress Dowager, there was a significant gap in their demeanors; looking at Consort Jing gave one the impression of trying too hard to emulate her superior.


The Empress Dowager did not like the Imperial Palace; once she left it, her spirits greatly improved, and she spoke with Murong Jiu with a smile.


She inquired about the goings-on in the Prince Mansion and about the two children, treating Murong Jiu with warmth and without the airs of an Empress Dowager.
