[Both leads reborn + one heroine with multiple love interests + self-interest above all + face-slapping + transmigration + System]
In her previous life, Xiao Linling was caught in the palace's schemes at every turn and met her end in bitterness, with her family destroyed.
Reborn, she has only one goal: make everyone who harmed her pay in blood.
Consort Li wants to use incense to humiliate her? She'll take her favor and send Li to the Cold Palace.
Consort De schemes to frame her for adultery? She'll play along, then turn the tables and grind her into the mud.
Lin Wanyi forces her to drink safflower? She'll use someone else's hand to claim the position of Empress Dowager.
Everyone in the harem thinks she's easy to bully, never realizing that she's planned every step and already holds their fates in the palm of her hand.
So what if the emperor is suspicious and cruel? She doesn't want his love, only his power.
In this life, she'll raise herself to the position of Empress Dowager and watch everyone bow at her feet.
