Shen Xiyue, the only daughter of the powerful Marquis Zhenxi, wakes on her wedding night to find herself reborn moments before her life unravels. In her previous existence, she was defiled on her wedding bed by Crown Prince Murong Xuan, an act orchestrated by her new husband, Qi Xun. The scandal led to Murong Xuan’s deposition, while Qi Xun used the incident to cultivate a reputation for loyalty and affection. The Shen family, grateful for the Qi family’s magnanimity, threw their support behind Qi Xun’s faction during the succession struggle. Ultimately, the Shen family was framed for treason, resulting in the execution of over seven hundred members. Shen Xiyue was tortured to death by Qi Xun and his true love, Gu Zhilan, a transmigrator who viewed the Shen family as mere stepping stones to power.
Now returned to the pivotal moment of her wedding night, Shen Xiyue finds Murong Xuan under the influence of an aphrodisiac. Recognizing him as the only person who showed her kindness in her past life—leading the final charge to avenge her before dying—she decides to alter her fate. Instead of resisting, she uses the opportunity to neutralize his condition, biting his tongue to break the drug’s hold. When Qi Xun and the guests approach, Murong Xuan rescues her by setting fire to the bridal chamber and escaping through a rear window to his residence. He preserves the blood-stained wedding cloth as tangible proof of their encounter, shielding her reputation.
At the Crown Prince’s mansion, Shen Xiyue recovers under the care of Shuangye, a skilled maid and covert guard. She learns that Murong Xuan’s wet nurse, Aunt Zhou, betrayed him by administering the drug at the behest of Prince Yao, one of the contenders for the throne. Murong Xuan executes Aunt Zhou for her treachery, revealing the depth of the political conspiracy surrounding him. Shen Xiyue, having survived the initial trap, approaches Murong Xuan with a proposal. She requests his help to strip Qi Xun of his upcoming disaster relief assignment in Jiangnan, a post that previously allowed Qi Xun to gain political capital while indulging in affairs with Gu Zhilan.
Shen Xiyue devises a plan to expose Qi Xun’s infidelity by having Murong Xuan distribute notices claiming Qi Xun’s devotion to Gu Zhilan. This strategy forces the censors to intervene and creates public scandal. The next day, Shen Xiyue appears at the Dengwen Drum in the imperial palace, presenting herself with fabricated injuries to portray herself as a survivor of an attempted murder. In court, she publicly accuses Qi Xun of shifting his affections and attempting to burn her to death. Her dramatic testimony, combined with evidence of Qi Xun’s orchid tattoo symbolizing his bond with Gu Zhilan, humiliates the Qi family before the Emperor.
Emperor You’an, furious at the Qi family’s ambition to covet the Shen family’s military influence, revokes the marriage decree and orders Qi Xun to be beaten. However, a minister intercedes, citing the urgent need for disaster relief in Jiangnan. Just as Qi Xun hopes to escape punishment through this assignment, Murong Xuan enters the hall and volunteers to take over the mission. This move not only deprives Qi Xun of his opportunity for advancement but also integrates the Crown Prince into active court affairs, strengthening his political position. Shen Xiyue successfully secures her divorce and begins to dismantle the conspiracy that destroyed her family, allying with the Crown Prince who has become an unexpected protector in her reborn life.
