[Bittersweet Ending + Palace Intrigue + Political Schemes + Court Politics]
A princess who escaped hidden in a cart of slop.
A blade who crawled back from a camp of assassins.
A lonely soul who fell to her knees in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Return to the palace, take revenge, seize power.
The court is treacherous, power is contested, schemes stir beneath the surface. Every step must be carefully planned.
She won.
But she lost everyone.
Warning: bittersweet ending. Everyone's fate is tragic. The female lead is the only survivor, but she doesn't live much longer.
[Happy Ending + Rebirth + Mutual Devotion + Satisfying Conclusion]
Reborn, she returns.
She no longer wants power.
She no longer wants the realm.
She wants only those five people.
All of them alive to see their hair turn white.
And that Hanlin Academy lecturer who couldn't even flirt properly.
This time, she'll be the one to speak first.
Politics? That was all in her previous life. This time, the princess only wants to fall in love.
Happy ending. Rebirth. Everyone survives. A joyful conclusion.
*****Set in an alternate era. Please don't take the historical details too seriously.*****
