Su Luoluo chose an extremely difficult immersive murder-mystery role-playing game. Her goal was to become empress, but once she officially entered the game, she discovered that the path was absurdly easy.
The young emperor followed close behind her with stars in his eyes. Her father, the Imperial Tutor, prepared a lavish dowry stretching for thirty-three li. The heads of the five great clans served her like humble dogs… The whole world was pushing her toward the throne.
Su Luoluo felt no sense of accomplishment at all. “What a con artist. Tsk!”
But only at the very end did she realize that the young emperor hid a bloodstained blade behind his smile, and her father had been plotting at every turn. The Su family’s dowry was not brocade and gold, but the destruction of the five great clans, the sacrifice of three thousand lives, and the mystery of a turbulent age that no one would ever mention again.
