As the Crown Princess, Pei Yun prided herself on being flawless in every duty—nothing about her could be faulted.

Yet, in the thirteenth year of her marriage into the Eastern Palace,

She fell through the ice of a frozen lake and watched as her husband swam toward another woman. Suddenly, she felt the suffocating tedium of a life shackled by propriety and status.

When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to six years earlier.

This time, she wanted to live differently—to change.

She wanted to avert her family’s downfall, preserve their glory, and ensure her child would not die young…

But as for that cold, rigid, and utterly dull man—who even in bed followed strict routines—

She was done serving him!

Crown Prince Li Changye was a man of upright and solemn demeanor. Taught by the late empress, he upheld the principle of “propriety” above all else.

His Crown Princess was likewise a model of etiquette—meticulous in her duties, managing the Eastern Palace flawlessly, and treating him with respectful obedience.

Engrossed in state affairs, Li Changye assumed their taciturn but harmonious relationship suited them both.

Until one day, his reserved, rule-abiding Crown Princess suddenly changed. She became more compassionate toward others yet increasingly impatient with him.

Even on their designated intimacy nights, she would frown, whispering “It hurts,” her gaze filled with unmistakable disdain.

Li Changye froze.

For the first time, the proud man felt his pride dealt a crushing blow…
