so this was not a bad book, but I don’t think I would read it again. It was basically the leading lady marries this guy who she fell in love with and had to practically beg her dad to marry, and he is incompetent and stupid and terrible all around as a person. he then starts cheating with her twin sister to also poison her so that the sister can become his legal wife. The leading lady finds out on their fifth anniversary and plots revenge. She gets revenge for the husband, but a prophecy is revealed that the emperors child will be from one of the girls in their family. So seeing as she is married, the emperor proposes marriage to her sister. The sister promptly breaks off things with the leading lady’s husband, which he does not like so then he tries to take her down and actually ends up getting her pregnant. so the lady ends up divorcing her husband and she, her sister, and the emperor end up getting married with the LL as the empress and the sister as a concubine. This is because probably can’t get pregnant after being poisoned for years and the emperor can’t take a chance on not having his child. The ladies husband ends up being poisoned by his servant who he tried to frame for all of the mess that he had did. And then leading lady and the emperor form alliance that he doesn’t sleep with the sister for some time while she gets fertility treatments. The lady falls in love with the emperor. The emperor won’t allow himself to fall in love with the leading lady because he was hurt by his parents and his dad’s cheating. Come to find out the leading lady’s sister killed their dad and the leading lady’s sister is not her sister. It’s her cousin, so the prophecy has nothing to do with her. The leading man’s half brother’s Uncle ends up, trying to kill the leading man and ropes in the sister/cousin and they end up getting caught and they die. Then the leading lady somehow reverses her infertility and has a baby with the emperor and they live happily ever after.
