The Marriage She Begged Me to Take

Synopsis

Shen Nanzhao has lived this life once already. Last time, her legitimate sister married the feared Seventh Prince and died screaming, while Nanzhao spent six years turning a penniless scholar into the most powerful minister in the realm. Now her sister kneels on the tiles, weeping, begging to swap husbands. Nanzhao agrees without a fight. But the prince waiting in that dark bridal chamber throws a dagger at her head before he says hello, and the bargain she offers him is one no bride has ever survived proposing.
