[Rebirth, revenge, a heroine skilled in both brains and brawn, decisive and never a saint]
[The ultimate beauty takes the initiative and plays mind games + the aloof, chaste beauty’s secret crush comes true]
Ji Lingshuang was reborn after Xiao Huaifeng ascended the throne.
Her father and three older brothers had died in battle helping him win the succession struggle.
But for the sake of a transmigrated woman, he had the entire Ji family, all fifty-three of them, beheaded in public.
A family that had served five dynasties, wiped out in a single day.
If that ungrateful wretch couldn’t be tamed, couldn’t he at least be cooked?
Ji Lingshuang smiled.
She would take the lives of the two scoundrels.
And she would take the empress’s throne that should have been hers in her previous life!
But why was the person she’d approached with ulterior motives even more forward than she was?
Ji Lingshuang: “Your Highness, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Instead of walking alone, why not join forces with me? I ask for little: give me the empress’s throne and keep my family safe.”
Xiao Jixue: “That makes sense.”
Ji Lingshuang: “?”
“Your Highness, aren’t you going to think it over?”
Xiao Jixue: “I trust you.”
Ji Lingshuang: Oh no, I have a feeling my ally isn’t very bright.
Until the day he took her hand and they ascended the throne together, ruling the court as the Two Sovereigns.
Xiao Jixue gazed at her with focused tenderness. “Shuang’er, at last, I’ve gotten what I wanted.”
