Rebirth of the Scorned Consort

The biting winter wind howls outside the windows of the Shangshu Mansion, a stark contrast to the sudden warmth that floods your being.

You jolt awake in your bed, heart pounding, the horrifying images of your past life – the chains, the betrayal, your family's gruesome end – still vivid in your mind. But as you touch your face, you feel the familiar scar, not the empty sockets of your death. You are fourteen again.

Your maid, Siqin, enters, chiding you gently for sitting by the window. You look at her, at your familiar room, and the unbelievable truth washes over you: you have been reborn.

Fueled by a burning desire for vengeance and a fierce protectiveness for your still-living family, you know you cannot waste this second chance. The first steps must be taken carefully, revealing nothing of your terrifying knowledge. The enemies who destroyed you are still close, still plotting. You must play the part of the quiet, scarred young lady while you gather your strength and begin to dismantle their plans, piece by agonizing piece.
