In the exquisite and elegant boudoir, a young woman in luxurious wedding gown sat facing the mirror, a gentle smile on her pretty face.

The girl's mother was dressing her up. She felt both relieved and sad when she saw her daughter in front of her. Her daughter was about to get married. She couldn't help but tear up. "Mother originally wanted to keep you for two more years, but she didn't expect the emperor's decree to grant you marriage just after you came of age."

Jiang Fenghua comforted her, "My daughter is marrying into the royal family as a princess. She will be rich and prosperous, with fine clothes and delicious food. Her life will definitely be easy. Don't worry, mother. My daughter will be fine."

"Yes, yes, my daughter must be blessed. Among so many girls from noble families, the Queen chose you to be the princess of Prince Heng at first sight. He is the Queen's biological son, and the Queen likes you so much. She will definitely not neglect you in the future." Feng Jingyuan cried with joy, thinking of Prince Heng, who was handsome, talented, and powerful, and her daughter, who was stunningly beautiful and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. The scholarly family of the Jiang family was also a good match for Prince Heng.

"Mother is right." Jiang Fenghua answered obediently.

Feng Jingyuan turned from sadness to joy, and carefully instructed, "Ruan Ruan, you are the apple of your parents' eyes at home, and we naturally treat you like a treasure, but now you are getting married. Being a wife is different from being at home. When a woman gets married, she enters a new family. Marrying into the royal family as a daughter-in-law is even more different from marrying into an ordinary family. From now on, you must be sensible, observe etiquette, do everything yourself, be content with your lot, support your husband and raise your children, and be filial to your parents-in-law..."

"My daughter understands." Jiang Fenghua hugged her mother, her eyes clear. The royal family's kindness was just a mouth, and it was the most heartless.

In her previous life, she strictly observed etiquette, did everything herself, kept to herself, served her mother-in-law wholeheartedly, and was even flattering and submissive. She was the most virtuous and obedient of all the princesses.

Unfortunately, her gentleness, obedience and understanding did not earn her husband's love, but his indifference and coldness. Her mother-in-law's kindness to her was also fake. She was chosen to be the Princess of Heng only because her father was a breath of fresh air in the court and the emperor's suspicion of the Prince of Heng could be eliminated. Once she was no longer of any use, she would be kicked away.

Finally, Prince Heng ascended the throne and became emperor, but he made his concubine Su Tingwan the queen. She was only given the title of virtuous concubine because she gave birth to two children.

What's even more ridiculous is that he and she consummated their marriage only because of the effect of the drug, otherwise he would never want to touch her for the rest of his life. She was not loved by her husband, and was ignored and hated by him. Her life in Prince Heng's Mansion was not easy.

She thought God was kind to her as she became pregnant with the royal heir after only one attempt. She thought her husband would pity her for the sake of the child and at least be closer to her. But she was wrong again. The birth of the child made him even more disgusted.

What's worse is that the relationship between husband and wife is not harmonious. Her two children began to dislike her and were even unwilling to get close to their biological mother. What she regretted most was that she had not raised her two children well in her entire life. In the end, she died of depression at the age of only 35.

Perhaps it was God's mercy that allowed her to be reborn back to the age of five. For the past ten years, she had not left the house and had worked hard to improve herself just to wait for the emperor's decree to grant her marriage.

Since Xie Shang is destined to become the most noble and powerful man in the world, she will not give up the right that comes to her. Similarly, she wants to use his power to become the most noble woman in the world. She will never give up in this life, and will never give Su Tingwan another chance. No matter what means she uses, she will surely rise to the top and become the mother of the country.

The Shengjing city is bustling today, with the sound of gongs and drums resounding in the streets.

The emperor granted marriage to Jiang family's second daughter Jiang Fenghua to Prince Heng Xie Shang as his princess consort, and ordered people from the Ministry of Rites to handle wedding arrangements. A grand wedding procession arrived at the gate of Jiang's mansion, and the display was unique in Shengjing.

Jiang Fenghua dressed up and sat in the royal wedding sedan. From now on, she was a royal daughter-in-law, a jade butterfly into the royal family, a legitimate Princess Heng, and the future Crown Princess. She must also firmly grasp the identity of Empress of Emperor Xuanzong.

Ten miles long with red wedding gowns and dazzling array of things to see, the mighty wedding procession was like a long dragon heading towards Prince Heng's palace. Passersby who stopped to watch could not help but sigh at its grandeur and majesty.

She thought: Even if Xie Shang was no longer willing to marry her, he would still be waiting at the gate of the palace today in his wedding attire to greet her, and the Queen would come to watch the ceremony and give her blessings.

In this life, she will never sit back and wait for death.

She only knows: If a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.

An unknown amount of time had passed before the ceremonial officer's voice of "Your Highness, please kick the door of the sedan chair" instantly brought Jiang Fenghua back to her senses. She straightened her back instantly. The phoenix crown inlaid with gold and jade made her neck ache, but she had to endure it.

She has always been steady and dignified. Nanny Wang from the palace taught her the rules for a month in the mansion. Everyone reminded her not to make any mistakes on the wedding day, and she just nodded obediently.

The door of the sedan chair opened, and the ceremonial officer placed the red silk in her hand. Then a white hand with distinct knuckles stretched out. She gently placed her jade fingers on it and felt his fingertips were cold. His breath also gave her a cold feeling that no strangers were allowed to enter. In her previous life, she was immersed in joy and didn't notice it at all. Now she finally understood that it was not that he was cold, but a signal sent by his body to instinctively resist her touch. However, she didn't care anymore.

Prince Heng, dressed in luxurious wedding clothes, walked steadily in front of her. Jiang Fenghua, supported by her maid, also walked slowly forward. She turned a deaf ear to the noise of the guests beside her and only focused on her embroidered shoes.

Just as she stepped over the fire basin, her embroidered shoes fell on Xie Shang's wedding gown. He stumbled, and the red silk in his hand slipped into the fire basin and instantly ignited. Then the flames spread along the red silk in Jiang Ruan's hand. Everyone subconsciously dodged. Jiang Fenghua was frightened when she saw the flames on the red silk. In a panic, she seemed to have grabbed something and rushed straight towards the fire basin.

At the same moment, Xie Shang instinctively reached out to hold her waist and hold her in place, making him feel her slender waist, soft and boneless.

Jiang Fenghua threw herself at his chest without any hesitation and clung to him tightly, and then her wedding gown fell into the fire. Xie Shang watched her turn around and picked her up. He didn't mean to get close to her, but he couldn't just stand by and watch her die. In front of everyone, he couldn't push her away without grace.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Fenghua suddenly pressed closer to him and hugged his neck as if she was extremely scared. A refreshing girl's body fragrance invaded his nostrils.

When he looked down, he saw a stunning face with delicate features. Her eyebrows were like crescent moons, her eyelashes were trembling, and her beautiful eyes were wide open with a hint of panic and uneasiness after being startled. She looked so pitiful. Her lips were red like blooming cherry blossoms. She was truly a beauty like a painting.
