Plot Synopsis
In her previous life, Yun Zheng Yue, with a big belly, was framed for adultery by the concubine and beaten to death with clubs. Her general father also died by ramming his head against a pillar because of her. After being reborn, Yun Zheng Yue returns to the night of her grand wedding with Xue Heng. Learning that Xue Heng used a substitute to consummate the marriage with her, she plays along and maneuvers between Xue Heng and the substitute Ying Ye. She wants Xue Heng to pay the price for his绝情 (ruthlessness) in the previous life, and also wants to see how this guard who was forced to serve in her place will become which chess piece on her chessboard. It should be noted that the word "绝情" is directly translated here, but it might be better to use a more descriptive phrase like "utter ruthlessness" or "heartless act" for a more natural English expression. Also, this translation tries to maintain the original meaning as accurately as possible while adapting to English grammar and expression habits.
Audience Reviews
This setting is good. Moreover, it's a plus that the female lead has never removed the scar on her face.
8.1 Looked, it's just average, nothing special, not very surprising.
The female lead is okay and has a clear head.
The female protagonist uses a double to replace the prince and takes revenge step by step, making the prince suspect that he is impotent and proving that the double is the real prince. The prince seems rather useless, unworthy of the loyalty of his subordinates and the support of the female protagonist's family.
感觉我以前读过这本小说。
The plot of the male protagonist's substitute is rarely seen~
The story of the female protagonist taking revenge after her rebirth by using the male protagonist's substitute.
新轨道
The plot is very complete and novel. The substitute replaces the real master and becomes the prince. The female lead was heartbroken in her previous life and won't fall in love again this time. What the substitute did can be regarded as atoning for him in the previous life.
The male lead is not the extremely handsome type, but the characters he plays in each drama are very captivating. Maybe this is the boost of acting skills. He's a really good actor. If the writer could put in more effort, it would be even better. The intense kiss when receiving the imperial edict at the end was really outrageous. Why not kiss after entering the room after receiving the edict, writer?
The rare stand-in male lead takes revenge, which is a bit novel, and the acting is okay.
Watch it when you're short of dramas to watch
True and False Princes: A Reborn Revenge Drama
The plot is okay, except that in some scene treatments, it's not clear which one is the double. The princess is also a rather ruthless character, playing the prince around in circles, and finally successfully taming the little puppy to become the prince.
还不错
The male and female leads are good-looking. The male lead plays two roles, and it's easy to distinguish between them. (Selected comment: The fake prince has a faint sense of death, and the real prince has a faint sense of being作死.) The female lead's maid, Xiaotao, is very useful and cute. The real prince is too effeminate, and I was worried throughout the whole process. The fake prince is very obedient. The story of the cat replacing the prince is a bit interesting. The plot is average. I don't like the love scene, and I don't like the female lead either. 3.5 stars. I've wanted to complain for a long time. If there's a scar, a birthmark on the female lead's face, or an uncommon skin color, she'll be scolded for being ugly. Can't you tell how good-looking her natural features are?? And can we stop filming scenes where the female uses her feet to tease the male? It's so vulgar! Who the hell likes watching that!?
