Prince Jing: In This Life, She Should Still Be My Wife

[Historical Romance · Reincarnation · Second Chance · Hidden Identity · Female Protagonist · Male Protagonist]

Jiang Zhuoyu is the prince consort of Rui that everyone in the capital envies, born into a noble family and blessed with a gentle, jade-like husband, Prince Rui, who respects and cherishes her. But only she knows how suffocating it is beneath the reputation of a loving marriage.

Until one day, she discovered that her older brother-in-law, Prince Jing, was acting strangely. He sent her hairpins, sent her pastries, helped her save people at the horse track, saved her during the spring hunt, and helped her catch spies for her father and brothers...

Jiang Zhuoyu: Prince Jing, please stay away from me!

Zhao Cong: No. In the previous life, you were my empress, and in this life you should be too.

Jiang Zhuoyu: ???!!!

Later, at a banquet, she was drugged. When she was out of her mind, he carried her away with red-rimmed eyes: “The antidote is me. Even if you hate me, I’ll accept it.”

Jiang Zhuoyu: ???

——————

Prince Jing Zhao Cong was reborn.

In his previous life, he suffered betrayal from his princess consort and schemes from his brothers. At death’s door, he was fortunate to be saved by his younger brother’s wife, Jiang Zhuoyu.

Her rescue of him had originally been a transaction, but unknowingly the two wounded hearts grew closer and closer. Yet before they could be separated by life and death, he never had the chance to speak his feelings.

After she died, he held her memorial tablet and proclaimed her empress. Even though he slaughtered until heads rolled and earned the name of tyrant, he still inscribed both their names in history — Emperor Zhao Cong of the Fourth Reign of Zhou, and Empress Yuan Jiang Zhuoyu, posthumous title Zhaoyi.

For the next twenty years, he neither established a harem nor came near women, and instead made a collateral clan child the crown prince, all because in his heart hung a blazing sun.

Heaven took pity on him and granted him a second chance.

In this life, he vowed to protect her completely — even if she was still someone else’s wife at this moment.
