Murong Qiuyu used to be a general in West Chu. She spent years on the battlefield, risking her life and enduring countless wounds to help her beloved, Li Mo, secure the throne. Despite the hardships, she never regretted her choices. Now that the realm is stable, Li Mo has fulfilled his promise to her. Qiuyu has taken off her armor and, as the Empress, stands by his side, like an ordinary woman, ready to bear his children.

Standing at the gate of Guan Ju Palace, pregnant Qiuyu eagerly gazes inside. Li Mo has been absent from the palace for a long time. Xiao Ju, her loyal maid, hesitates to reveal the truth that the Emperor intends to depose Qiuyu and elevate Xiner to the position of Empress. Qiuyu, unable to believe it, feels a faint pain in her abdomen.

Sweating profusely, Qiuyu lies on the bed, repeatedly asking Xiao Ju about the Emperor's arrival. Only when she sees the Emperor and Murong Xiner does she manage a faint smile. Xiao Ju reveals her wicked intentions with a sinister grin and cruelly presses on Qiuyu's belly. Even the Emperor lends a hand to hold Qiuyu's struggling arms. In that moment, all that remains is feeble cries and boundless despair.

The unborn child perishes in Qiuyu's womb, and Li Mo tightens his grip around her neck, taking her life. In her heart, Qiuyu silently vows that if there is another life, she will make them pay for their blood debt.

When she awakens again, she is dressed in wedding attire and bound with ropes. Seventh Prince Li Jian stands before her, surveying the surroundings. She has indeed traveled back five years in time.

Li Jian casually picked up the candle next to him and threatened Qiuyu. Thinking back to the scenes from their previous life, Qiuyu quickly calmed down and persuaded Li Jian. She only wanted peace now. With gentle words, she convinced Li Jian to put down the candle and helped Qiuyu loosen her restraints. Listening to Qiuyu's explanation, Li Jian finally understood that Qiuyu intended to betray Li Mo and form an alliance with him. She believed that Li Jian would agree, as she knew both Li Mo and Li Jian well. After speaking, Qiuyu picked up a hairpin from her head, cut her hand with it, and used a handkerchief to soak up the blood, which she handed to Li Jian to show that she had someone watching him. Seeing Qiuyu's series of actions, Li Jian was both skeptical and cautious, deciding to give her three days to prove her words.

The next day, Xiao Ju, who came to wake Qiuyu up, found a dropped handkerchief on the ground. After picking it up and thinking for a moment, she was startled by a sudden voice behind her. Remembering Xiao Ju's actions in her previous life, Qiuyu slapped her directly. Under two more slaps, Xiao Ju knelt on the ground, begging Qiuyu to spare her life. She used a calculated act to appeal to Qiuyu's mercy. Qiuyu, while caressing Xiao Ju's face, made a firm decision not to let them off easily. This was just the beginning, and they would have to pay back what they owed little by little.

After conducting an investigation, Li Jian confirmed Qiuyu's story, but he still had doubts and boundaries. Qiuyu revealed her plan to Li Jian: on the day of her return to the family, she would pretend to be insane to fool them into thinking that they were not in agreement and to relax their guard. All of this was heard by Xiao Ju, who was hiding behind the curtain.

Li Jian brought Qiuyu back to the family home. Looking at her stepmother in front of her, Qiuyu remembered the blame and insults she had endured from her in her previous life, filling her heart with hatred. When Murong Xiner, who was holding her arm, tried to approach, Qiuyu shook her arm free and hid behind Li Jian. Immediately, Li Jian explained to everyone that Qiuyu had been in poor spirits and feeling unwell recently. Murong Xiner, upon hearing the news, suspiciously eyed Qiuyu, thinking she might be pretending. Murong Hao, her father, who was familiar with her daughter's usually resolute personality, also shared those doubts. However, Li Jian's testimony on Qiuyu's behalf seemed to alleviate their concerns.

Meanwhile, Qiuyu remained silent, pretending to be mentally challenged, not uttering a word. She grabbed a handful of peanuts from the table and threw them at her stepmother, Liu Yun, while acting deranged. In a fit of madness, she also pushed Xiner down. Xiner, looking to retaliate, was blocked by Li Jian, which made her lower her raised arm.

Xiner then changed her mind and, pretending to have some medical knowledge, took Qiuyu back to her room to treat her. Xiner provocatively stared at Qiuyu and administered a painful injection. Unable to bear the pain, Qiuyu immediately slapped Xiner and then grabbed her, demanding to know the whereabouts of her real sister. Xiner, distressed by the commotion, ran back to her mother. Witnessing Qiuyu's outburst once again, Li Jian interrogated Xiner about what she had done to Qiuyu.

Seeing Seventh Prince Li Jian getting angry, Xiner was forced to apologize. However, Li Jian was not satisfied at all. He made Xiner kneel and beg for mercy directly. Though Xiner felt resentful, she had no choice but to comply under the pressure of imperial authority. She silently swore that what she did today would make them regret it.

Back at Guan Ju Palace, Qiuyu continued to feign madness in front of Xiao Ju. Xiao Ju, holding Chinese medicine, kept testing Qiuyu. When she realized that Qiuyu was truly insane, Xiao Ju attempted to force-feed her the medicine. However, Qiuyu fought back relentlessly, causing Xiao Ju to slink away in defeat.

Not long after Xiao Ju left, Li Mo appeared. He didn't believe that Qiuyu was truly insane and approached her, but to his surprise, Qiuyu pushed him away and knocked him to the ground. Listening to Li Mo's vows, Qiuyu chuckled with scorn, recalling the previous life when Li Mo had named Xiner as a noble concubine while she fought on the battlefield. She then gave Li Mo a resounding slap.

Qiuyu slapped Li Mo repeatedly, one after another. Li Mo, unable to bear it any longer, grabbed Qiuyu's wrist. Fortunately, Li Jian arrived in time to stop Li Mo's actions, reminding him to maintain a proper distance from his queen. With nothing to say in response, Li Mo had no choice but to leave.

Qiuyu finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to her normal self. Li Jian couldn't believe that Qiuyu, his childhood friend, harbored such deep hatred for Li Mo. Qiuyu thanked Li Jian for his cooperation and candidly revealed that she had come for revenge. Li Jian began to gradually believe in Qiuyu's intentions.

Murong Xiner, dressed beautifully, approached Li Mo and immediately noticed the scars on his neck. She hugged him and expressed her concern. Seeing Xiner's stunning appearance, Li Mo was also captivated.

The Emperor specifically summoned the top talent of West Chu, Xiner. She couldn't help but reminisce about the last time she danced when Qiuyu played the zither and sang beside her. Unfortunately, Qiuyu was seriously ill now. However, to everyone's surprise, just as the words left her mouth, Qiuyu appeared before the Emperor, in good spirits. Li Jian explained that the royal physician had already treated Qiuyu, and she was now well and healthy.

With the Emperor's permission, Qiuyu bent over to play the zither, while Xiner danced gracefully. Sudden changes in the tune repeatedly caught Xiner off guard, causing her to fall to the ground. Qiuyu kindly helped her up. The Emperor on the other side continuously praised Qiuyu's musical skills, leaving Xiner feeling neglected.

Once the Emperor left, Xiner began to question why Qiuyu pretended to be insane. This time, Qiuyu feigned memory loss, leaving Xiner speechless. Then, she expressed concern for Li Mo's injury, making Xiner laugh when she learned he was okay.

Li Jian looked into the mirror and, as usual, covered the scar on his left eyebrow. He felt satisfied but didn't know how much longer he would have to maintain this disguise.

After the incident with playing the zither, Li Jian became certain that Qiuyu was an enemy, not a friend. He observed her frequently rotating her wrist and personally found a pharmacist to prepare an ointment for her injuries. After a few pulls and tugs, Li Jian applied the ointment to Qiuyu's wrist himself, surprising her. She had never expected that they could get along so peacefully.

Recalling Liu Yun's actions towards her, including the murder of her own biological mother, and how she reduced Qiuyu to a servant in the backyard, using cold water for laundry as a child, which led to her suffering from a cold-related illness, Qiuyu's hatred for her ran deep. Li Jian empathized with Qiuyu's experiences, and he was determined to help her embark on the path of revenge.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, Xiao Ju used the excuse of helping Qiuyu tidy up her clothes to finally bring her in front of the Emperor. During the toast to celebrate the occasion, the Empress Dowager noticed that she had lost her necklace. After a thorough search, one of Xiner's maids informed the Emperor that she had seen Seventh Prince and his consort take the necklace. She mentioned that as the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were leaving the Imperial Garden, a palace maid had placed something black in Seventh Prince's and his consort's hands. However, the Emperor was skeptical, and Xiner immediately pressured Qiuyu to be searched to prove her innocence.

Qiuyu, calm and composed, agreed without panic and, to everyone's expectation, a black necklace was indeed found on her. She explained that the necklace was a gift from the local people during her time leading troops in foreign lands.

After a careful examination, the Empress Dowager confirmed that this was not her own necklace, causing Xiner to pale at the realization.

Xiner instigated that Qiuyu had not appeared at the banquet, wondering where she had gone. The Emperor began to question whether there were any witnesses to Qiuyu's absence. Qiuyu was momentarily at a loss for words, but Li Jian, who was by her side, stood up to testify. He explained that he had accidentally bumped into a palace maid in the hall, causing his clothes to be splashed with tea. He and Qiuyu then went to the carriage to change their clothes, using this as evidence of Qiuyu's innocence.

Li Jian then shifted the blame to Xiner, which left Xiner flustered. She questioned her maids, who were equally clueless and kept their heads low. Qiuyu, daringly, requested a body search. The maid, intending to prove her innocence, took out a necklace from her own pocket. After observing it, the Empress Dowager confirmed that it was indeed her necklace. The maid knelt down in panic, begging Xiner and falsely claiming that she had found it. The Emperor immediately ordered her to be imprisoned in the dungeon awaiting judgment, leaving Xiner breathless.

Afterward, Xiner attempted to leave but was stopped by Qiuyu. Qiuyu grabbed her arm and checked her pulse, diagnosing her with a guilty conscience. Hearing this, Xiner felt even more uneasy and left in a hurry. Qiuyu tried to follow but was halted by Li Mo. Li Mo held Qiuyu's hand affectionately, and after exchanging a few words, Li Jian also appeared. Together, they took Qiuyu home, and as they were leaving, Qiuyu nodded to Li Mo to signal something.

Li Jian rubbed the necklace, lost in thought. Although it was still unbelievable, a series of events had verified that Qiuyu could indeed foresee the future, implicitly acknowledging their alliance. In the midst of their conversation, Qiuyu raised her hand to signal Li Jian to stop speaking. She became alert when she noticed a figure at the door. Hearing the silence in the room, Xiao Ju, who had been hiding outside, quietly slipped away.

The next day, Li Jian played host to Li Mo and Xiner at his home. Li Jian's subordinates whispered something to him, and he slammed the table in anger. Immediately, Xiao Ju was brought in and knelt on the ground. On the table were confiscated items and correspondences related to her interactions with someone else. Xiner's expression drastically changed upon seeing this.

Qiuyu questioned Xiao Ju about who had sent her. When Xiao Ju refused to admit it, Qiuyu slapped her. Li Jian threatened Xiao Ju's life, and she knelt, seeking help from Xiner. However, Xiner responded with a heartless kick, causing Xiao Ju to point out her master—Xiner. To prevent Xiao Ju from saying more, Xiner added another kick, sending her sprawling to the ground. At that moment, Qiuyu was examining the handwriting on the correspondence and admitted that she couldn't decipher it. She asked Li Mo to analyze it. Hearing Li Mo's explanation about sibling love, Qiuyu ordered her subordinates to drag Xiao Ju away and beat her to death. Xiner glared at Xiao Ju as she was being dragged away and breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiuyu fondled the necklace, reminiscing about Xiao Ju's actions in her previous life and how she had received the retribution she deserved. This brought her great satisfaction, and she happily selected a hairpin in front of the mirror.

Li Jian entered the room with light steps. He had heard that since the banquet for Murong Xiner, Qiuyu had claimed to be frail and unwilling to see anyone, but in reality, she had been plagued by nightmares and had trouble sleeping and eating. Qiuyu was pleased with everything that had happened. She shared with Li Jian the information about Li Mo building an army in Feiying Fortress in their previous life, intending to frame and harm him. Li Jian had mixed feelings but decided to investigate further.

The next day, Qiuyu met with Li Mo. She told him that, based on her observations, Li Jian might be plotting a rebellion and showed him the wound on her arm. Li Mo, deeply concerned, gently touched the wound and gave a sinister smile. Qiuyu expressed her genuine feelings to Li Jian, and Li Mo held her hand, nodding in agreement. Xiner, who had been hiding in the distance, witnessed everything with a fierce expression.

When Li Mo returned to his room, he realized that Xiner had eavesdropped on their conversation. He scolded her, explaining that he had only used Qiuyu, which made Xiner feel very uneasy.

Xiner questioned Li Mo uneasily, asking if he had feelings for Qiuyu. She had come to find Li Mo in high spirits but was met with his dismissal. Frustrated, Xiner left, and Li Mo, with a furrowed brow, didn't chase after her.

Late at night, news arrived from the agents sent to Feiying Fortress, confirming Qiuyu's claims once again. Li Jian held Qiuyu's wrist and examined the bruised wound, using a fake story of self-inflicted injury to gain Li Mo's trust. As he applied ointment to the wound, Li Jian couldn't help but feel sorry for her. He didn't know what Qiuyu had gone through to make her so ruthless, even towards him.

Qiuyu practiced with her Xuantie bow and arrow alone, but her shot missed the target and landed on the far edge. Li Jian, who was watching from a distance, couldn't resist stepping in to give her some guidance. He held her hand on the bow, teaching her the essentials of the Xuantie bow and arrow. Together, they focused intently on the arrow's tip, and when she released the shot, it hit the bullseye, bringing joy to Qiuyu's heart.

Qiuyu looked at the map of Feiying Fortress on the table, amazed by its size and strength. She felt the urgent need to destroy it as soon as possible, as it could pose a threat to Li Jian. Qiuyu and Li Jian discussed their strategy, and Li Jian once again marveled at Qiuyu's ruthlessness. Qiuyu suggested supporting Li Jian to leave the capital after ascending to the throne, but Li Jian immediately vetoed the idea.

Late at night, Li Mo received a messenger pigeon letter from Qiuyu: Li Jian had gone out to train the troops, and he should hurry to suppress the rebellion. As he read the words on the paper, he fell into contemplation.

Li Mo was summoned to the palace by the Emperor, who had received reports of rebel troops. Li Mo speculated that as soon as he received the news of Li Jian's military training, his father, the Emperor, received reports of rebel activity. Could it be Li Jian? With this in mind, Li Mo proposed to the Emperor that he should lead the operation to suppress the rebels. The Emperor was pleased with his initiative and ordered Li Mo to lead the troops to Feiying Fortress to eliminate the rebel forces. When Li Mo heard the name Feiying Fortress, he felt a jolt of unease but had no choice but to accept the command.

He immediately led his troops to Feiying Fortress and eliminated all the rebels. Only the leader refused to reveal the identity of the rebel mastermind. With a blade at the leader's neck, Li Mo interrogated him relentlessly, but to prevent the leader from divulging more information, Li Mo ultimately slit his throat. At this point, Li Mo, in a state of near-collapse, knelt on the ground, unable to understand who had sent the secret message. Witnessing all of this from a distance, Qiuyu secretly rejoiced.

After everything concluded, the Emperor summoned Li Mo again. It turned out that the Emperor had received reports of rebel activity, and upon investigation, it was confirmed. To allow Li Mo to rectify his mistake, the Emperor chose to let him handle the situation on his own.

In the late night, Qiuyu and Li Jian were in high spirits, celebrating with raised glasses. Qiuyu looked at how her scheming had made Li Mo personally retrieve everything, and Li Jian couldn't help but admire her. Li Jian raised his glass and offered a toast. After a few drinks, he had already slumped over the table. Qiuyu watched his face with mixed emotions. In the previous life, this drink had been poison. In this life, they could peacefully coexist, and everything had changed. In her words, Qiuyu also fell onto the table. However, Li Jian had heard every word she had just said, but he didn't understand its meaning from the previous life.

In her dream, Qiuyu was awakened by the nightmares of her previous life. When she opened her eyes, Li Jian was lying next to her. Qiuyu jumped out of bed in surprise, waking up Li Jian, who was still in a deep sleep. Qiuyu hurriedly and awkwardly left.

Xiner carefully comforted the angry Li Mo, but emotional comfort wasn't enough for him. So, they found solace in each other's bodies. As they kissed and embraced, they began to undress. However, suddenly, a disheveled woman drifted by the window, causing Xiner to scream. She pointed outside and shouted about a ghost, but Li Mo saw nothing. When Li Mo went outside to investigate, the disheveled woman sneaked into the room and grabbed Xiner by the neck, refusing to let go.

Xiner, who was being strangled, struggled continuously, her forehead veins bulging. By the time Li Mo heard the cries for help and returned to the room, the ghost had already disappeared. At this moment, Murong Hao, Liu Yun, and the guards also arrived after hearing the commotion. To prevent the guards from spreading rumors about Xiner and Li Mo, Li Mo requested that Murong Hao eliminate the witnesses. After much consideration, and prioritizing his daughter's reputation, Murong Hao reluctantly agreed. Xiner lay on the bed, holding her head and screaming, seemingly unable to hear anyone.

Meanwhile, the mysterious Qiuyu, who had staged her supernatural act, encountered Li Jian, who had also launched an attack. The two met here without much negotiation and exchanged a few words before parting ways.

The next day, Murong Hao summoned numerous physicians, but none of them could diagnose Xiner's condition. Xiner accused Murong Qiuyu of being responsible, but Murong Hao couldn't see the connection. During their conversation, Qiuyu arrived with a pot of stewed donkey-hide gelatin, appearing innocent and concerned for her sister Xiner. However, Xiner tossed the donkey-hide gelatin to the ground upon seeing it and displayed a disrespectful attitude. Murong Hao couldn't help but slap her. Qiuyu, being tactful, left the room, leaving behind Xiner and Liu Yun, who glared angrily at Qiuyu's departing figure.

Qiuyu, who had just left, coincidentally ran into Li Mo, although it wasn't by chance; Li Mo had intentionally sought her out. Qiuyu pretended to be clueless when facing Li Mo. She falsely claimed to have been monitoring Li Jian all along and hadn't noticed anything unusual. She also mentioned that upon learning about Li Mo's operation to wipe out the Eagle Fortress, she had disbanded her own rebellious army. To make Li Mo believe her, she even presented the shattered tiger tally, using it as proof. This left Li Mo even more puzzled, and he revealed the truth about the importance of the Eagle Fortress to him. Qiuyu seized the opportunity to suggest that Li Mo might be close to someone. After pondering for a while, he suspected that the only person who knew about the Eagle Fortress incident might be Xiner, who had overheard it inadvertently.

After discussing these matters, Li Mo expressed concern for Qiuyu's situation with Li Jian. He pretended to be sympathetic, holding her arm and comforting her. Afterward, they hastily bid farewell.

As Qiuyu left and had taken only a few steps, she was stopped by Li Jian, who questioned her about meeting Li Mo. Qiuyu casually mentioned spreading false information to brush off the topic, but Li Jian couldn't help but feel jealous. He insisted that they should act together, but Qiuyu didn't care and walked away.

Li Mo, holding the shattered tiger tally in his hand, turned to find Xiner and questioned whether she had anything to do with it. However, Xiner had never done anything, so she couldn't admit to it. The two had a heated argument and parted ways.

The emperor had arranged a chrysanthemum-viewing banquet for the princess to select a husband. If it weren't for Qiuyu's insistence on attending, Li Jian wouldn't have appeared there. While conversing, Xiner suddenly appeared before them.

Xiner suddenly knelt on the ground with a pitiful and remorseful expression, confessing that her jealousy had clouded her judgment, leading her to make many mistakes. She begged her sister for forgiveness. Qiuyu was unsure what act Xiner was putting on this time but quickly helped her up and played along with the act. Xiner, now on her feet, proactively poured a cup of tea for Qiuyu as a gesture of her apology.

As Qiuyu looked at the tea in her hand, memories of the past life flooded back. She recalled how Xiner deliberately spilled tea on her clothes in their previous life and then led her into a room to change. However, before she could finish changing, a drunken man made advances towards her. At that moment, Xiner loudly cried for help, tarnishing Qiuyu's reputation.

With these thoughts in mind, Qiuyu accepted the tea cup and intentionally spilled water on Xiner's clothes. She then took her to a guest room. Before leaving, she quietly mentioned Li Mo's name to Li Jian. In the guest room, Qiuyu smoothly handed Xiner her clothes to change into. This time, however, as Xiner was still in the process of changing, Li Mo unexpectedly entered the room. Qiuyu witnessed this scene by chance.

The matter reached the emperor's ears, and he questioned Li Mo about his actions. Qiuyu stepped forward, appealing to the emperor to safeguard Xiner's reputation.

The emperor approved of Qiuyu's explanation and issued an edict for Li Mo and Xiner to set a wedding date. Xiner was shocked to see Li Mo compelled by the imperial order, but she felt a mixture of surprise and joy. Meanwhile, Qiuyu had achieved her desired outcome.

Xiner felt like she was in a dream, about to marry Li Mo. She was overwhelmed with happiness but Li Mo was visibly upset. He questioned Xiner if she had planned everything that had happened that day. Although Xiner denied any involvement, Li Mo was convinced that she had set up the situation intentionally to marry him. Li Mo had unwavering trust in Qiuyu. Xiner, realizing that Li Mo had no intention of marrying her, threatened to defy the imperial edict and never interact with him again. Li Mo immediately softened his stance, squatting down to console Xiner. However, he was unaware of whether Qiuyu would still hold a grudge against him after he married Xiner.

Li Jian, angered by Qiuyu's solo actions, was only jealous and concerned for her safety. However, Qiuyu misunderstood his intentions and didn't grasp the meaning behind Li Jian's use of the term "husband and wife." His words touched her heart.

Afterward, Li Mo hurriedly sought out Qiuyu and was met with her sarcastic remarks. Li Mo explained that he had never harbored inappropriate feelings for Xiner and assured Qiuyu that he would never touch Xiner after their marriage.

Li Mo promised Qiuyu that before long, he would personally kill Li Jian and marry Qiuyu in a grand manner, making her the queen of the entire Western Chu. Qiuyu pretended to be deceived by his sweet words and listened obediently to Li Mo's commands. They embraced passionately, each harboring their own secret intentions.

After Li Mo left, Qiuyu quickly grabbed her clothing and wiped her hands in disgust. Li Jian, who had been hiding behind a pillar the entire time, appeared and praised Qiuyu's acting skills. He scolded her while gripping her arm, expressing his displeasure that she hadn't informed him about Li Mo's visit. Qiuyu, unaware of Li Mo's visit, faced Li Jian's criticism. Li Jian looked at her with a mix of frustration and affection, questioning whether she had any affection for Li Mo. Hearing her denial, Li Jian finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a hidden sense of satisfaction.

On the day of the grand wedding, Xiner tried to light incense according to the ceremonial steps, but no matter how hard she tried, the incense wouldn't catch fire. She exchanged three sticks, but all failed to ignite. Watching this, Qiuyu nonchalantly flicked a stone at a candle, causing the wax to spill onto Xiner's dress.

To protect Xiner, Qiuyu reached out to shield her, and the spilling wax from the candles burnt Qiuyu's wrist. Li Jian tenderly touched her injured hand, showing deep concern. The Emperor, who had witnessed everything, wore a stern expression and questioned everyone about what had happened. He was displeased, considering the spilling candles as an ill omen, and thought the reaction was an overreaction. Xiner obediently suggested that someone had tampered with the incense, but these incense sticks were specially made for the palace. She directly accused Qiuyu of being the culprit, but her accusation was baseless, especially considering that Qiuyu had shielded her. Everyone noticed this.

Using the excuse of treating Qiuyu's injury, Li Jian took her away from the scene. Xiner was furious, holding onto Qiuyu's injured wrist, preventing her from leaving, and insisting that she had evidence of her guilt. Li Jian, protective of his wife, quickly moved Xiner's hand away. Emperor Murong Hao, unable to tolerate the spectacle, ordered Xiner to kneel. Xiner reluctantly knelt down and cried out, insisting she had no such sister. The Emperor shook his head with a sigh and decided to make Xiner Li Mo's concubine. Everyone was shocked by the Emperor's decision, except for Li Jian, who subtly smiled.

After the Emperor left, Qiuyu, still in disbelief about everything that had happened, sat on the ground, pondering the course of her life.

In high spirits, Qiuyu ate a full bowl of rice that evening. During the banquet, Li Mo passed her a note, inviting her to meet in the hills the next day. Qiuyu shared this with Li Jian.

Hearing that Qiuyu was going to meet someone, Li Jian, filled with concern, wanted to go with her. However, Qiuyu refused, as she needed to play her part convincingly, or her plan might fail. Li Jian ultimately didn't say what he wanted to say.

The next day, at the rear mountain, Qiuyu arrived on time. She mentioned how she sometimes couldn't help but feel jealous. Li Mo was quick to hold Qiuyu's wrist and explain that the wedding incident was fate, and Qiuyu was his destined wife. With a few sweet words, both achieved their goals once again.

In the evening, Li Jian asked Qiuyu what they had talked about. Seeing Qiuyu's wooden expression, he finally admitted that he was jealous. He held her hand and let her feel his heartbeat in his chest, finally confessing that he had fallen for Qiuyu. Li Jian kissed Qiuyu's forehead, and she didn't resist. They entwined with each other until late into the night.

In the early morning, Qiuyu woke up in Li Jian's arms. They were inseparable, lost in each other's embrace.

Today, Xiner returned home, and Qiuyu attended the event in her finest attire. Li Jian had anticipated that something good would happen today. Seeing the somewhat tacky headpiece on Qiuyu's head, he guessed it was a gift from Li Mo. Li Jian felt a hint of jealousy in his heart.

Xiner reluctantly appeared before her parents. Murong Hao reminded Li Mo to take good care of Xiner in the future, and Li Mo gladly accepted. Li Mo noticed the accessory on Qiuyu's head, and when he noticed Xiner's focused gaze, they both looked at it. Xiner furrowed her brows in displeasure.

Afterward, Li Jian and Qiuyu left together. Xiner quickly caught up with Qiuyu, holding her arm and wanting to catch up. Knowing the situation, Qiuyu tactfully brushed her off and let her go ahead.

Watching Li Jian walk away, Xiner snatched the hairpin from Qiuyu's head and saw the character "Mo" on the bell. Xiner knew exactly what it meant, and Qiuyu just smiled discreetly, bowing her head. Xiner held Qiuyu's wrist and asked her to swear to the heavens that, given time, she would not covet Li Mo's official wife position, even if she retired from Lord Seven's side. Qiuyu didn't provide a direct response but simply wanted to retrieve the hairpin and leave. However, Xiner blocked her, unwilling to let her go. They struggled over the hairpin.

Their argument attracted the attention of Murong Hao and Liu Yun. Murong Hao blamed Xiner and her overindulgence, and Xiner unfairly shouted at her father. Murong Hao slapped Xiner, and in tears, she left.

After leaving, Xiner cried and complained to her mother, claiming that Murong Qiuyu and Li Mo were having an affair. She showed her mother the hairpin and Liu Yun decided to give Qiuyu a lesson.

Li Jian, who had been waiting outside, finally saw Qiuyu. When he noticed the hairpin missing from her head, he asked about it. Qiuyu, who understood Li Jian's jealousy, didn't explain much. Li Jian directly embraced her waist, and they got closer. In front of a large crowd, Qiuyu became shy.

Back inside, Li Jian handed Qiuyu a delicate box. Qiuyu opened it without knowing what was inside and found a unique hairpin. Li Jian personally put the hairpin on Qiuyu, and she was enchanted by her beauty. Qiuyu was deeply moved because in the past, whenever someone gave her a gift, they had ulterior motives. But this time, it was a gift given purely to make her happy.

On the other side, Li Mo tried to coax Xiner for a whole hour, but she continued to be stubborn. Li Mo started to lose patience and stood up, pulling Xiner's arm to take her away. However, Xiner shook him off, glared at him fiercely, and told him to have the guts to marry Murong Qiuyu if he wanted to, leaving Li Mo with an irrational woman. Li Mo left.

Li Jian was touching his scar in front of the mirror when Qiuyu brought a bowl of porridge she had made herself into the room. Qiuyu was puzzled when she saw the scar on Li Jian's head was gone and asked about it.

Li Mo said that when he was eight years old, his mother was framed to death by a traitor, and her wish before she died was to hide and protect himself, so he took the excuse to disguise himself as an ugly person and keep a low profile, not to fight with Li Jian, but he didn't expect that Li Jian would definitely want to get rid of himself. Li Mo decided that from today onwards, he would take off his disguise, be honest, and face his desire, and he would definitely fight with Li Mo for the sake of Qiu Yu and all the people in the world. Qiu Yu was so pleased to look at the sincere man.

Liu Yun looked at the performance of Xiao Chengzi absent-mindedly, but until the end of the performance, Liu Yun also sat in place. Xiao Chengzi round to the side of Liu Yun to let her back to God, Liu Yun smiled and stroked Xiao Chengzi's hand, earlier she heard that Xiao Sheng from the black market to get a kind of medicine, you can not know the ghost, Liu Yun also did not forget to remind the small Chengzi to do cleanly some, do not leave a word.

The Emperor summoned Li Mo and Li Jian at the same time. Li Mo appeared first, followed by Li Jian, and with just one glance, Li Mo saw the disappearing scar on Li Jian's forehead and was shocked.

Li Jian explained to Emperor that he had found a way to heal himself and presented his concerns. Following this, Emperor ordered Li Mo to transfer all military affairs in the Western Mountain region to Li Jian. Though Li Mo harbored some dissatisfaction, he had no choice but to comply. Li Mo had not anticipated the depth of Li Jian's thoughts and realized it was time to make a decisive move.

Back at the mansion, Li Mo searched but couldn't find any trace of Qiuyu. He started to worry because he knew Qiuyu was not the type to break her appointments. Surely, something had happened. He decided to chase after her.

Qiuyu had been drugged and fell unconscious. The two kidnappers, drawn by her beauty, had wicked intentions. Just as they were about to act, Li Jian arrived with his soldiers, threatening them with his blade.

It wasn't until late at night that Qiuyu slowly opened her eyes while lying in bed. Li Jian, who had been patiently waiting by her side, finally sighed with relief. The two began to piece together what had happened. Qiuyu recalled walking on the road when two men approached and struck up a conversation. Shortly afterward, they released a powder that made her whole body go weak. Meanwhile, the guards had interrogated the culprits, and it turned out to be the work of a member of a theater troupe named Xiao Chengzi. The connection between Xiao Chengzi and Liu Yun was baffling.

On Murong Haosheng's birthday, Qiuyu, along with Jian, offered their blessings. Xiner, on the side, teased Qiuyu for her tardiness. Jian changed the subject and, in order to celebrate Murong Haosheng's birthday, he specially invited a talented actress from the Pear Garden to perform. Liu Yun, hearing the name Xiaochengzi, couldn't help but get nervous.

Afterward, Xiaochengzi entered and bowed to everyone. Liu Yun was already breathing heavily and couldn't sit still. Xiaochengzi directly knelt down to beg for mercy, and Liu Yun ordered Xiaochengzi to leave immediately. Qiuyu continued to tease Liu Yun on the side. Taking advantage of Murong Haosheng's distraction, Qiuyu slipped a note next to Liu Yun. Trembling, Liu Yun picked up the note, trying to appear calm while catching her breath.

During this time, Liu Yun used changing her clothes as an excuse to leave, but she didn't reappear until the end. Shortly after, Murong Haosheng received a report from his subordinates. Murong Haosheng, accompanied by Qiuyu, immediately went to the backyard, only to unexpectedly witness a dispute between Xiaochengzi and Liu Yun. Without hesitation, Murong Haosheng slapped Liu Yun and dismissed her.

Li Jian praised his clever and talented queen. She had managed to silently capture Liu Yun and Xiaochengzi, but for Qiuyu, this was far from enough. Liu Yun had caused the death of her mother years ago, and Qiuyu had been patiently waiting for the opportunity for revenge. In the midst of their conversation, Liu Yun suddenly drew a knife and charged at Qiuyu. Qiuyu skillfully dodged, and nearby guards immediately arrested Liu Yun and took her to the magistrate's office.

Liu Yun was ultimately imprisoned in the dungeon. To her surprise, the first person to visit her was Murong Qiuyu. Liu Yun angrily shouted at Qiuyu to leave and kept throwing things on the table. As she looked at Liu Yun, who had lost her former glory inside the cell, Qiuyu analyzed the bleak future that awaited her. She offered another choice, but she wasn't sure if Liu Yun would be willing to accept it. The decision was in Liu Yun's hands.

As Qiuyu was leaving, Xiner rushed into the dungeon to visit her mother. However, she received a harsh slap from Qiuyu. Xiner stared at Qiuyu in disbelief. Qiuyu followed up with another slap and some harsh words before leaving.

When Xiner went to see her mother, Liu Yun had already cut her wrist and collapsed on the ground. Xiner sat helplessly on the floor, screaming, but no matter how loud she yelled, Liu Yun wouldn't wake up. Qiuyu had finally avenged her mother.

Xiner sat on the ground in disbelief. She never expected Li Mo to dare to strike her. She got up from the ground and started pounding Li Mo's chest continuously. What's more, she didn't anticipate that Li Mo would directly grab her neck, rendering her unable to move. Li Mo told her to behave, released her grip on Xiner's neck, and left.

In the previous life, Li Jian had already died before the royal hunt, so in this life, Xiner couldn't predict what would happen during the hunt. Although Li Mo had informed Qiuyu of the plan, she knew he would likely hold some information back. But Li Jian didn't care at all. He accommodated Li Mo in every way, and it didn't mean he was inferior to Li Mo. Li Jian held Qiuyu's hand, and regardless of how many lifetimes had passed, he would fall in love with Qiuyu repeatedly. Qiuyu happily embraced Li Jian. In this life, she was determined to protect Li Jian.

The next day, Li Mo personally prepared breakfast to apologize to Xiner. Seeing that Xiner was still unwilling to acknowledge him, Li Mo started slapping himself in the face to show his remorse. After a few slaps, Xiner's heart softened.

Listening to Li Mo repeatedly talk about his grand ambitions, Xiner could barely contain her frustration. But Li Mo continued to brainwash her, promising that she would become the queen in the future and assuring her that he would never betray her in this lifetime. This time, Xiner finally softened her heart and forgave him. However, Li Mo's intentions were not just about the wine; he simply wanted Xiner to step in and help him.

Before long, Xiner found Li Jian at the residence. She held a sachet in her hand and showed it to Li Jian, claiming she had found it in Li Mo's room. This sachet had been given to Qiuyu when she was eight years old, continuously stirring up trouble between Qiuyu and Li Jian. Before leaving, Xiner left the sachet with Li Jian. Seeing his clenched fist, Xiner had achieved her goal and felt satisfied.

Li Mo was not the type to wait. He wanted to witness this drama firsthand.

Li Jian then found Qiuyu, and he smashed a teacup to pieces on the floor. At this point, Qiuyu was still unaware of what had happened, but when she saw the sachet on the ground, she finally understood. The two of them had a heated argument in the room, with Qiuyu resolutely stating that she had never had any feelings for Li Jian and that the person she loved was only Li Mo. Meanwhile, Li Mo outside the door was listening intently to every word of their conversation.

Furious that his genuine feelings were betrayed, Li Jian, in a fit of anger, grabbed Qiuyu by the throat and ordered her never to see Li Mo again. They parted ways on bad terms. Qiuyu turned to leave, and coincidentally, she encountered Li Mo who had been eavesdropping at the door. Li Mo pretended to be dignified and started educating his brother. Unable to bear listening to it, Li Jian asked Li Mo to leave as well. Watching Li Mo's retreating figure, Qiuyu let out a sigh of relief.

Back at the palace, Li Mo had a meeting with Qiuyu. Qiuyu secretly found Li Mo and held his hand to show her loyalty, promising to protect Li Mo no matter the cost. Li Mo pretended to be caring, expressing concern for the scars on Qiuyu's body.

Next, Li Mo met with Xiner and praised her for being efficient. Xiner didn't care about these compliments; she was concerned about what would happen to Murong Qiuyu after Li Jian's death. When she received Li Mo's response that Qiuyu would be put in a life-threatening situation, Xiner was satisfied. Both of them were playing their own games.

Qiuyu helped Li Jian put on his armor and handed him his bow and arrow, nodding in agreement. The day of the hunt had arrived, and Li Jian walked alone, weak, through the empty woods. Suddenly, Li Mo's voice echoed behind him, and then Li Jian found himself surrounded. Qiuyu stood confidently by Li Mo's side, and Li Jian's heart sank. Li Mo impatiently ordered Qiuyu to take action. Qiuyu, following the command, took two steps forward and, after confirming with Li Jian, drew her sword.

Qiuyu was seen drawing her sword and thrusting it directly into Li Mo's abdomen, while Li Jian was responsible for dealing with the other subordinates. Li Mo shuddered and retreated, leaning against a tree behind him. It was only now that Li Mo realized that Li Jian had never been under the influence of the Soft Tendon Powder. He had intended to try and win over Qiuyu with sweet words, but at this moment, Qiuyu just crouched down and pushed the sword deeper.

In fact, Qiuyu had known all along that the sachet was sent by Li Mo through Murong Xiner to create a rift. Three days ago, Li Jian had given Qiuyu the sachet, and at a glance, she recognized it as the one she had given Li Mo many years ago. It was clearly meant to sow discord, which was why Qiuyu and Li Jian had staged this drama together.

It wasn't until now that Li Mo realized he had been deceived in collaboration. He still couldn't believe that Qiuyu would actually turn against him. He, who had planned to manipulate Li Jian and Qiuyu in his lifetime, had ended up being manipulated himself. Li Jian had his hand around Li Mo's throat, seeking revenge for Qiuyu. Qiuyu, remembering Li Mo's actions towards her in the previous life, was determined to make Li Mo pay with his blood.

Li Mo finally died, and Murong Qiuyu had her revenge. Li Jian and Qiuyu played their final act in front of the emperor. Li Jian supported Qiuyu to become a general, saying, "First, you are Murong Qiuyu, then General Pingxiang, and finally, the Seventh Princess Consort."

Murong Xiner, upon learning of Li Mo's death, was convinced that everything was the work of Li Mo and Qiuyu. In reality, she was quite similar to the former Murong Qiuyu, both being pitiable individuals manipulated by others due to their emotions. However, Xiner had evil intentions and showed no remorse. If she hadn't attempted to assassinate in public, Qiuyu would have spared her. But to everyone's surprise, Xiner had truly gone mad. She revealed all the harm she and Li Mo had done to Qiuyu and Li Jian in the past. These words quickly spread, tarnishing her reputation and making her a pariah. As for her fate, no one knew.

Qiuyu held Li Jian's hand, and at this moment, all she wished for was that Li Jian could be with her forever, accompanying her on the journey. Li Jian was grateful to fate for bringing Murong Qiuyu into his life. The two leaned on each other and were no longer alone.

In the deep night, Qiuyu woke up from a nightmare, and Li Jian, who was beside her, held her hand. They strolled in the courtyard, gazing at the stars together, destined to be together forever.
