Description
For twenty years, Zhou Yanzhi and I were a couple bound by resentment. During our worst fight, he gripped my throat and demanded to know why Jiang Lingyi had been the one chosen for the political marriage, why I wasn’t the one who had died. I laughed and told him it was because he was incompetent, powerless to protect Jiang Lingyi. After so many years as husband and wife, we knew each other’s deepest wounds and exactly how to tear them open. But on the day of the rebellion, Zhou Yanzhi shielded me with everything he had. He took several arrows to the chest and died in my arms. As he lay dying, he wiped away my tears, a look of release on his face. “Don’t cry,” he whispered. “All these years… I’ve been so tired.” “If there is a next life, let’s set each other free. I want to go find her…” When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day the Southern Kingdom requested a political marriage. I no longer forced the issue. I took the initiative and requested to be the one sent for the marriage. This time, I decided to grant Zhou Yanzhi his wish.

My Thoughts on His Grave Mistake, My Second Life
"His Grave Mistake, My Second Life" promised a tale of regret, second chances, and finding love where you least expect it. As a sucker for historical romance with a strong female lead, I dove in with high hopes, and for the most part, I wasn't disappointed.
First Impressions
The initial chapters gripped me immediately. The short story format for the beginning arcs really helped set the scene and establish the pain and longing that defined the FL's first life. The angst was palpable, and I was eager to see how she would navigate her second chance and break free from her past.
What Works Well
The core strength of this novel lies in its exploration of the FL's journey. Watching her emerge from the shadow of her unrequited love and embrace a new path, even within the confines of a political marriage, was genuinely satisfying. The way she learns to value herself and find happiness outside of her initial obsession is a testament to her growth. I also appreciated the initial setup with Zhou Yanzhi, the former ML. The author did a solid job portraying the push and pull, his sense of duty versus his feelings, and why the FL was so drawn to him. The early romance in the Southern Kingdom was good, even if it was a subplot.
