In her previous life, Yu Qingyi was the empress of the Tianyu Dynasty, adored above all other women in the imperial harem.
The emperor treasured her and granted even her most willful demands.
But as her health grew weaker and the child in her womb was lost, an imperial decree ordered her entire family executed. Only then did she understand that his affection had been a poison that ate away at her bones. She had merely been a pawn, used to kill two birds with one stone by eliminating both the Chancellor's residence and the General's residence...
Now she has returned through a sea of blood to the springtime of her youth. She casts aside all innocence and kindness. To protect her family and herself, she becomes the one moving the pieces, vying for favor and seizing imperial power. She is determined to rise above them all!
Who could have guessed that the cold-hearted emperor would suddenly become devoted, while the iron-blooded general would fall deeply in love?
Xiao Xian: “If you want this empire, I will gladly hand it over to you.”
Nie Chongyuan: “No matter how fiercely you stir up a storm, I will become the blade in your hand and clear away every obstacle for you!”
Nie Chongyuan is really good at giving without asking for anything in return. He is gentle to the female protagonist and is not looked down upon by anyone else. He is better than the male protagonist.
The ending is great and well written.
