The Cold Palace Prince Hid for Ten Years to Avenge His Mother, Then Went on a Killing Spree

System + woman transmigrates into a man's body + play the pig to eat the tiger + revenge on everyone who wrongs him + same-sex love from a past life continues in this life + one-on-one romance + no harem + one heroine

In a single moment, a female CEO transmigrates into the eighth prince of Beichen, an unfavored prince. As if that weren't enough, things go disastrously wrong from the start.

She later learns that the emperor wants to kill her.

So does the crown prince, her eldest brother, who is attracted to men.

Her third and fourth brothers can't stand her.

Her tenth brother is so jealous that she's getting more and more successful that he keeps framing her.

Her mother is forced to take her own life, and her maternal family is exiled.

The only one by her side is an old eunuch, and they barely scrape by.

What can she do? Keep her head down and play the pig to eat the tiger.

Ten years later.

She pulls the strings from behind the scenes, holds the court in the palm of her hand, and becomes the youngest prince in the land.

The ministers lower their heads and ask, “Eighth Prince, how about you conquer the rest of the continent?”

The Eighth Prince replies, “Maybe later. First I'll find a wife and have a kid. We'll pick one up wherever we go.”

[This is a slow-burn story, not a harem novel. There's only one heroine, and she doesn't get a huge amount of page time. The focus is on the companionship between them.]
