When Chu Chaoxing was granted the marriage, the tragedy of the Chu family being exterminated in his previous life still weighed heavily on his mind.She did not flee Chudu immediately, but first stabilized the people around her, especially her personal maid A Le.A Le didn't understand why the young lady was suddenly hostile to Xiao Xun, so he just pretended that she hadn't woken up from a nightmare.However, Chu Chao knew that every step he took was related to the life and death of his father and the Chu family.She began to re-examine the relationship between Xiao Xun, the Xiaonan Palace and the powerful people in the capital, and realized that her innocence in her previous life was an opportunity for Xiao Xun to succeed.She must cut off Xiao Xun's plot against the Chu family before the marriage is completely settled.

Xiao Xun still came to see Chu Chao as before, with gentle words and considerate behavior, like a fiancé who was really looking forward to getting married.Seeing his pretended affection, Chu Chao felt a chill in his back.She did not rashly reveal the truth about her past life, but followed her words to test Xiao Xun's thoughts.Xiao Xun thought that Chu Chao was still easy to coax, and he wanted her to accept the marriage arrangement as soon as possible, and also mentioned Chu Cen's objection to the marriage.Chu Chao heard that he still regarded his father as an obstacle on the road to seizing power, and became more determined.She was perfunctory on the surface, but secretly she began to look for a way to send a message to Chu Cen.

Fu Jiu reappeared in Chu Chao's sight.In his previous life, he had assassinated Xiao Xun for her at the last moment, and he had also rescued her coldly on the desert road.After her rebirth, Chu Chao knew that this silent guard was no ordinary follower, but a sharp blade left by her father to protect her.She tried to get close to Fu Jiu, trying to convince him that she had seen Xiao Xun clearly.Fu Jiu was wary of her sudden changes, but also noticed that Chu Chao was no longer as willful as before.The Chu Dynasty took the opportunity to ask about the border troops, Chu Cen's current situation and the movements in the capital, trying to piece together the full picture of Xiao Xun's layout.

Xiaonan Palace is also secretly promoting the marriage.Xiao Xun didn't want Chu Cen to have another chance to stop him, and wanted to use the emperor's order to suppress the general's palace.The Chu Dynasty knew that if they continued to marry according to the trajectory of their previous lives, the Chu family would sooner or later be involved in the whirlpool of power grabbing.She decided to start with the links around her that were most easily exploited, and clean up Xiao Xun's eyes and ears in the house.Although A Le was worried that Chu Chao would act too radically, after a few details, he gradually believed that the young lady was not crazy for no reason.Chu Chao asked her to keep abreast of the news about her hospitalization, and not to trust the people sent by Xiao Xun as casually as before.

Chu Chao also began to face the resentful self in the mirror.The shadow in the mirror kept reminding her that the pain in her previous life could not be forgotten and Xiao Xun must die.But after truly going back to the past, Chu Chao discovered that revenge was not as simple as rushing in and killing people.If she only wanted to be happy for a while, Chu Cen, Fu Jiu, A Le and the entire Chu family might still be dragged into a larger conspiracy.She suppressed her hatred and decided to save her father first, and then change the fate of the Chu family.In the second episode, Chu Chao gradually regains her judgment from the collapse of her previous life. What she has to do is not just to refuse the marriage, but to get ahead of Xiao Xun and reset the chessboard of power.

At night, Chu Chao wrote down the key points that happened in his previous life one by one, and burned them with his own hands after reading them.She remembered when Xiao Xun used marriage to get closer to the Chu family, when he induced her father to come to the capital in court, and how those seemingly unrelated little things eventually formed a web that led to the Chu family's downfall.A Le came back with the soothing soup. Seeing her terrifyingly calm expression, he couldn't help but advise her to take a rest first.However, the Chu Dynasty asked A Le to pay attention to every foreign face in the palace from tomorrow, especially the gifts and messengers sent by the Xiaonan Palace.She no longer allowed herself to regard danger as affection as she did in her previous life, nor did she regard her father's obstruction as unkindness.The sky was getting brighter outside the window, and Xiao Xun thought that Chu Chao was just losing his temper after the marriage, but Chu Chao had already put his name at the top of the revenge list.
