[Strong female lead + transmigration into another body + power struggles + a little heartbreak]
[Cool and commanding regent princess vs. loyal guard]
She transmigrates into another body, and there’s angst. This story focuses on the heroine’s growth.
When Shen Xuanyi was young, she accidentally transmigrated to ancient times. She didn’t know that someone had come with her and had been by her side ever since.
A master predicted that she was destined to be a great general who would end the chaos, but she didn’t really believe it. While searching for a way home, she picked up a few disciples for fun, until she had dealt with several groups of troublemaking assassins...
Shen Xuanyi: “What identity are you hiding from me?”
Sixth disciple: “Master, I’m a prince...”
Shen Xuanyi: “...”
For her disciples and the chance to go home, Shen Xuanyi is forced to embark on a path to seize power.
Later, her disciple ascends the throne, and Shen Xuanyi only wants to go home. Instead, she winds up becoming the regent princess.
During the busiest years, Chu Mochen simply leaves a letter behind and goes off to observe the people’s lives, leaving a mountain of official duties for his master.
At last, she manages to drag her disciple back. But just as she tries to step down, her sixth disciple drops to his knees and begs, “Master, can’t you stay in charge for a few more years?”
He turned dark in his youth and encountered two good teachers. Angst comes first, then sweetness.
A strong female lead story. The heroine acts decisively and thinks things through carefully. Before she turns dark, she’s level-headed; after her transformation, she launches a ruthless revenge campaign, but becomes even more calculating.
