Chapter 1 — Tham Dien

Updated 10/08/2026 7 min read

Verdict: On the big wedding night, my husband and I had endless love all night long. It wasn't until morning that I realized that my real husband was unconscious and drunk in the outer room. And the man was entangled with me all night, before dawn he quickly left, and he was still a stranger. After waking up, the husband just said nonchalantly:

“No need to take it to heart.”

But from then on, he never entered my room again. On the surface, my husband treated me extremely benevolently, but not a single person stood up to demand justice for me. Fifteen years later, he guarded the border, and I alone supported the marquis' palace, exhausted all my energy, frustrated to the point of illness. When I was so sick that my body was exhausted, I accidentally overheard a conversation between my husband's parents. Then I realized that he had already established a family outside the gate and had children. And the person who ruined my innocence that year was actually the younger brother of the exterior that he loved the most. That night, he was standing right outside the door, letting it all happen. Just because that woman once said:

“Only by destroying her will you truly be free.”

I hate you to the core. Secretly sold all his family's property, hired martyrs to travel thousands of miles, and blood cleansed his yard outside the border. The day the bad news came back, I laughed loudly, coughed out the last mouthful of blood, then lit a fire that burned down the entire Truong Hung Marquis Palace. Opening my eyes again, I was back to that big wedding night. The red candles glowed brightly, the happy music still hadn't stopped. Outside the door, footsteps carrying a contemptuous smile were approaching from afar.

“Miss, I'm here…”

I curled my lips and smiled, quietly picking up the scissors on the dressing table. …

“My dear~”

The moment the veil is lifted, we know we have been reborn. In my previous life, this man named To Vong in front of me impersonated the husband Ta Tranh whom I had never met, then robbed me of my innocence and ruined my whole life. After that, he grabbed the money to cover the mouth of the Marquis and ran away. Outside the gate, he relied on Ta Tranh's power to rampage and eventually died on a prostitute's bed. At this moment, I see that greedy, impatient face again, giving me nightmares for fifteen years... I no longer have half the fear in my heart. Only cruel excitement. It turns out that God gave us life again, not to repeat the same mistakes. But to personally pay off the old debt!

“Husband~”

I lowered my eyes and pretended to be a newlywed, softly and shyly calling him. To Vong's eyes immediately lit up. His throat moved violently and his breathing became heavy.

“My lady, you are so beautiful~”

Obviously he couldn't wait any longer. As he unfastened his pants belt, he jumped forward while laughing lustfully. I don't avoid it. Just looked at him intently, the corner of his lips curved into a cold, scary smile. He stopped. The body seemed stiff in mid-air. Right at that moment… The hand hidden in the sleeve of my wedding dress suddenly swung out!

“Crack!”

Aim straight down at his body. Pull the swing up and down! …

“Ah ah ah ah!”

A pitiful cry like a pig being pricked echoed throughout the palace. Everyone heard the sound of coming. Even Ta Tranh, who should have passed out drunk, rushed into the new room. Looking at To Vong's blood-stained clothes and the bloody mass of flesh on the ground, his face immediately turned pale. Before he could open his mouth, the little guy next to him rushed to the bed, crying until his heart and soul were torn apart:

"Ah Vong! Ah Vong, please wake up... don't scare me!"

Only then did I discover that the little man was To Dieu Am in disguise. To Dieu Am is a singer of the music hall, and is also the person Ta Tranh placed at the top of his heart. I just know they already have feelings. But I never thought... she would dare to disguise herself as a man and openly appear next to him on my big wedding night. At this moment, she almost went crazy, her eyes could not bear to hate me:

"Doctor! What have you done to my younger brother?!"

Ta Tranh also frowned and opened his mouth:

“Tham Dien, how can you casually hurt others?!”

I curled up in the corner of the bed, my face full of innocence, my whole body trembling, tears falling:

"Husband... tonight was supposed to be our wedding night, but a bad guy sneaked in, planning to do something nefarious."

"In order to maintain integrity, I risked my life to protest. If you don't protect me, then that's fine. Why do you still blame me?"

At this time, Truong Hung's wife also arrived at the door. Seeing the scene in the room clearly, both of their faces immediately changed. I took the opportunity to raise my voice:

"My father is only a fifth-rank petty official, so I know that marrying into the Ta family is a big climb, but I can't let others trample on me!"

“I won't accept this marriage anymore!”

"After that, I will immediately go to Thuan Thien Palace to knock on Dang Van Ancient, so that the whole capital can decide how Truong Hung Marquis Palace tolerates the foreign man and humiliates the bride on the wedding night!"

“Disturb!”

The old man shouted loudly to stop him:

"Just now, Tranh Nhi was suddenly impatient, so she accidentally said something. It was not her intention to blame me."

“This is completely unexpected, you don't need to worry, I will definitely take care of you!”

Having finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him. Mrs. Hou immediately understood and coldly ordered:

"Where are you? Pull these two thieves out and deal with them thoroughly!"

“Mother!”

Ta Tranh reflexively wanted to stop. Mrs. Hau immediately glanced at him, lowered her voice and shouted:

"Don't shut up yet! Do you want to make a big deal out of it and make the entire Marquis palace a laughing stock?!"

Ta Tranh clenched his fist, as if he still wanted to say something. But in the end, he still kept his mouth shut. … The old man left. Lady Hau stayed to reassure me. She held my hand, her expression gentle:

“Be good, you're scared, aren't you?

“Don't worry, those two thieves, I have already sent someone to clean them up.

“From now on, no one will harm you anymore.”

I wiped my tears and obediently nodded. In my heart, I secretly laughed coldly. If she really deals with those two sisters, I'm afraid her beloved son will cause chaos. Just now she winked at mom, moving so fast that almost no one noticed. But we see it very clearly. To Vong is not dead yet. At this moment, he must be lying in a medical clinic somewhere, taking the best medicine to save his life. It's just a pity... The thing underneath his body was completely severed by me. Even if there is a healing elixir like Kim Sang Medicine, it cannot be reconnected. Mrs. Hau was obviously very pleased with my gentle and understanding appearance. After a few coaxing words, she immediately turned her head to glare at Ta Tranh:

“Don't apologize to my wife yet!”

Ta Tranh raised his neck, the anger in his eyes almost overflowing:

“It's obvious that she hurt someone first, so why do I have to apologize?

"She and I have never met, but as soon as we looked, we knew that the person in the new room was not me. Who knows if she did it on purpose or not..."

“Trinh Nhi, speak carefully!”

Mrs. Hau hurriedly interrupted him. I raised my head just in time and explained in a low voice:

“Husband misunderstood.”

"Even though I haven't officially met you, Prince Truong Hung has an outstanding demeanor. Who wouldn't be curious in the capital?"

"Last year at the Nguyen Tieu Lantern Festival, he rode a horse through Chu Tuoc street, and many noble ladies secretly peeped."

“I also looked at him a few times and suddenly recognized him.”

The lady nodded:

"Did you hear that? Don't apologize quickly!"

Ta Tranh is still not convinced. He frowned, pursed his lips, and after a long time, he forced out a sentence through his teeth:

"I was rude just now, don't blame me."

The tone was dry, without any sincerity.
