It tells the story of Empress Wang Yun Ci, who was murdered in the fire and reborn inside Jiang Jin Li's body as the Princess Consort Duan because of an ancient jade. Her birthday just became her death day, and her brother-in-law also became her husband. At first, she mistakenly thought that Prince Duan murdered her for treason, so she was determined to seek revenge. However, she always felt concern and protection from Prince Duan. So let's see how these two people with different intentions change, from using each other to giving heart and completing their long-cherished wishes while receiving love.

From Birthday cake to ASHES
Lemme start without beating around the bush with some lil background here. soo our leading lady, Empress Wang Yun Ci, goes from celebrating her birthday to becoming a human barbeque (thanks fire! guh )But fear not, because the drama gods had other plans. She wakes up mysteriously reborn in the body of Princess Consort Duan, married to her own brother-in-law (insert awkward silence here). Now, convinced this brooding prince offed her for, like, treason or something, she's out to take her REVENGE but lil does she know who the actual ahole is lmfao.
All in all, imma say this drama isn't going to win any awards for historical accuracy, but who cares? It's entertaining, its heartwarming (in a weird, dysfunctional way), and the romance is alright. If you're looking for something to binge-watch this drama is deff your jam. Just grab some snacks, and prepare to be entertained. With a production that's lit, acting that's lit, supporting cast thats lit and a story that's surprisingly nice (-2 overall for the subtle romance, would have loved to see more of them ;p) To sum it up, TRE is a mini lil package of awesome thats a fun watch for sure
Signing off,
yours Angel

Meh.
Pros: Storyline flows well, FL is a good actress, costumes and styling and direction are good. And when i say 'good' I don't mean excellent, I just mean decent.Cons: ML has limited range, supporting cast is full of mediocre performances, bodyswap plot device is tired, skimpy on the spice, lost some of my attention toward about the 2/3rd mark.
All in all, pretty average.
