Shen Miao, the noble daughter of a military family, was hopelessly devoted to Prince Ding—even offering herself to be his wife. For his sake, she braved dangers, endured exile as a political hostage, and sacrificed everything—only to return and find her children murdered and her family massacred. The once-loyal Shen family, known for their valor, was wiped out overnight. Now reborn at fourteen years old, before tragedy struck, she has a second chance. This time, she will protect her family, exact her vengeance, and carve out her own destiny—even if it means seizing a share of the empire itself. But standing atop her garden wall, with his unruly charm and reckless spirit, is the young Marquis of the Xie family, who smirks and declares: "Toppling an empire is no big deal. The world is yours—" "But you… belong to me." A gripping tale of revenge, power, and a fated love that defies destiny.
