"Miss... Miss, wake up. It's time to get up and greet the master."

In my ear, there seemed to be a familiar voice calling my name.

I slowly opened my eyes, and all I saw was a sea of emerald green.

The furnishings in the room had a sense of familiarity as if from another lifetime.

This isn't... my bridal chamber before I got married? How did I end up here?

As I pondered, the maid Chang Ying brought water to help me rinse my mouth: "Miss, it's not early, it's time to get up and greet the master."

But wasn't Chang Ying, that maid, killed by the princess on the charge of theft when we entered the palace that year?

How could she be here?

Seeing all this strange happening in front of me, a ridiculous thought exploded in my mind in an instant.

I grabbed Chang Ying's hand tightly and asked, "Chang Ying, what year is it now? What is the date?"

Although bewildered, Chang Ying still answered my question, "It is the fourteenth year of Yong'an, it's the sixteenth of August. What's wrong with you?"

Upon hearing this, I excitedly shed tears of joy.

I have really been reborn!

I have returned to a month before the embroidery ball engagement!

We, the Chun'an women, have always had the custom of throwing embroidery balls to find a husband.

However, these embroidery balls are not thrown randomly, most of the time the two families have already agreed to the marriage, and throwing the embroidery ball is just a pretext to find a suitable match.

In my previous life, I was childhood friends with the young master Qi Letian from the Qi family, and he loved me deeply. Although I did not have feelings for him, after many years of interactions, I knew he was a good man whom I could entrust my life to.

So, the elders of both families arranged our marriage, and we agreed to throw the embroidery ball engagement on the sixteenth of September at the Yu Yanglou.

At that time, some unmarried young men would come to compete for the embroidery ball. But everyone knew that this was just a formality, and no one would really fight for the groom-to-be.

But on the day of throwing the embroidery ball in my previous life, a group of people sneaked into the Yu Yanglou.

Among them, there was a beautiful and haughty woman.

She saw someone throwing the embroidery ball for engagement and out of playfulness, she kicked the embroidery ball around as if it were a toy, and finally kicked the embroidery ball onto a beggar in the corner.

At that time, my face turned pale with fear.

Fortunately, the beggar was kind-hearted and declined the engagement, asking me to throw another embroidery ball to find a suitable husband.

But before I could breathe a sigh of relief, that woman refused to give up.

Relying on her noble status, she directly invited the local officials of our county, forcing my father to agree to the engagement.

It is an age-old proverb that commoners do not fight with officials, so in the end, my father could only hold his nose and marry me off to the beggar.

On our wedding night, Qi Letian came secretly and tried to elope with me.

But unexpectedly, we ran into that group of people again.

That woman, angered by my defiance, ordered her men to shoot me.

To protect me, Qi Letian bravely stood in front of me and was shot dead on the spot.

I, on the other hand, caught the eye of that woman's brother and was eventually taken back to their home as a concubine.

Only after following them back to the capital did I realize that the arrogant and domineering woman was Princess Fengyu, the current empress. And her brother was the crown prince who stood above thousands.

After becoming the prince's concubine in the palace, I was determined to eliminate Fengyu and avenge Qi Letian.

But due to my lowly status, I couldn't even touch the princess of a country, and in the end, I was relegated to the cold palace by the prince who ascended the throne and died before the age of thirty.

Little did I expect, God couldn't bear to see me manipulated all my life, so he let me come back again!

Since I'm living a new life, I must settle the unfinished debts from my previous life!
