[Historical romance + reborn + strong heroine + sweet romance + devoted husband + empress + princess consort + princess + scheming + political intrigue] In her previous life, Yuan Mule was the beloved Fenghe Princess of Heyun. After her parents were brutally killed, she agreed to a political marriage and became a concubine to an old emperor who was older than her second uncle. She worked cautiously to build her power, single-handedly throwing the court into chaos, killing the regent and the old emperor, and paving the way for her second uncle. But on the eve of his ascension to the throne, she was tortured to death.
When Yuan Mule opens her eyes again, she has returned to the day she first entered the palace. Just as she is preparing to level up and defeat the big boss, she encounters the future regent, Ran Xian’an, being humiliated by eunuchs.
“Qingqing, I’ll give you everything you want.”
Remembering the note the regent had sent her in her previous life, Yuan Mule feels her heart ache. She immediately decides to join forces with the poor, pitiful regent and climb to the pinnacle of power together. Once they succeed, she’ll retire from public life and leave the world a wise ruler.
But when everything is settled, Yuan Mule learns that the regent was never some poor, pitiful soul. The Jinyi Guards, whose reputation had become that of a fierce army, had been under his command all along.
She wants to help him conquer the realm, but he wants to marry her and make her empress.
Yuan Mule packs her things and tries to run away, only for the regent to carry her and her bundle home.
The regent smiles with satisfaction. “Qingqing, I’ll give you the realm. In return, give me the rest of your life.”
It's pretty cool, and the male lead is super handsome. I just don't know when they will make the official announcement.
I like the heroine so much, she's great!
