Chu Ning’s father was falsely accused. Suddenly, she became the daughter of a disgraced minister and was almost reduced to s*avery. Fortunately, the Crown Prince pitied her and honored their engagement, making her his main wife.
Chu Ning thought that she was fortunate to have married the Crown Prince.
However, she later found out that her savior was the very person who killed her father.
Soon after, the Emperor was gravely ill. Xiao Kezhi, the Prince of Qin and the Crown Prince’s sixth uncle, led an army into the city and took the throne from his nephew.
When Chu Ning saw the silent man with a wolf-like gaze, she gathered her courage and extended a tentative hand.
. . .
Xiao Kezhi had spent the last fourteen years in the dangerous and cold borderlands. He was a decisive and ruthless man.
His wrath was terrifying. As soon as he ascended the throne, he eliminated all of the Crown Prince’s allies.
However, the Crown Prince himself was strangely left unharmed.
Rumors spreaded everywhere, but none were close to the truth.
Only Xiao Kezhi himself knew why he had left the Crown Prince alive. He did it for the sake of the beautiful and delicate Crown Princess.
. . .
Later, in order to gain more powers, the Crown Prince forced Chu Ning to step down as his main wife.
Chu Ning calmly relinquished her position and voluntarily entered a Taoist temple.
Everyone thought that she was just putting up a brave front. However, no one knew that on the night the Crown Prince remarried, the Emperor paid a visit to the temple.
The next day, Chu Ning changed out of her Taoist robe, did her hair, and entered Taiji Palace. She smiled calmly at the horrified Crown Prince and his new wife.
父亲为奸人所害，楚宁一朝沦为罪臣之女，差点充入奴籍。幸好太子垂怜，仍依原定婚约，迎娶她为太子正妃。
楚宁想，这辈子能嫁给太子，是她的幸运。
谁知后来，她却发现，这个被她视为恩人的夫君，才是当年害死父亲的罪魁祸首。
不久，天子病危，身为太子六叔的秦王萧恪之骤然引兵入城，夺走了本该属于侄子的皇位。
望着这个少言寡语，目光如狼的皇叔，楚宁大着胆子伸出试探的小手。
**
萧恪之在边疆与刀剑风霜相伴整整十四年，从来杀伐果决，狠戾无情。
他甫一登基，便对太子一党大肆清洗，其手段之雷霆，令人胆寒。
可偏偏对太子本人未伤分毫。
坊间流言纷纷，都摸不透新帝何意。
只有萧恪之自己知道，他留下太子，不为别的，只为太子身边那个纤弱貌美的太子妃。
**
后来，太子为争权夺利，逼楚宁让出正妻之位。
楚宁不慌不忙，转身自请入道观修行。
人人都以为她不过面上逞强，谁料，太子另娶当日，皇帝夜访道观。
第二日，她脱下道袍，重新绾发，入主太极宫，对着震惊不已的太子与新妇淡淡一笑。
小剧场：
夜深人静，楚宁跪在地上，素衣散发，低眉垂首。
新帝手持御笔，抬起她下颚，目光幽深：“你的父亲，与朕何干？要朕帮一个已死的罪人，你拿什么回报朕？”
美人泪光盈盈，咬唇轻道：“但凭陛下吩咐。”
新帝步下台，倾身道：“离开他，到朕的身边来。”

2. 男女主年龄差7岁。
3. 女主古代人，非善类。
