share time: 2026-02-09 12:37:46

Su Wan, the legitimate daughter of the prime minister's family who was framed and executed with her entire family by villains in her previous life, is reborn as "Azhu", a lowly maid, to infiltrate the palace and seek revenge. However, the always cold Emperor Rong Heng keeps making "exceptions" for her—he jumps into the pool to save her when she's pushed by maids, distracts guards when she steals evidence from the empress's palace, and even hands her a dagger during her assassination attempt, saying, "Stab here, it's fatal." When Su Wan questions his motives, Rong Heng presses her against a peach tree in the imperial garden, wipes the charcoal from her face with his thumb, and says with red eyes: "Wanwan, you always said I didn't understand love in my previous life, but the pearl hairpin in your sleeve—it was the engagement token I secretly gave you." It turns out he had a secret crush on her in the past. Every step after rebirth is his "trap", just to bring her back. Amid the entanglement of revenge and deep love, she realizes the one who deserves her "retaliation" most is the emperor waiting for her return.
