In her past life, she was the most scandalous princess in the Yunlan Kingdom, surrounded by male favorites and lost in a life of wine and pleasure, never realizing that every person beside her was a wolf in disguise. Only when the city fell did she learn that the gentle musician was a priest from an enemy kingdom, the loyal chancellor was the mastermind behind her country's destruction, and even her most beloved male favorite concealed a poisoned dagger. Reborn on the night of her coming-of-age banquet, Chu Fengning felt the blood-red mole between her brows burn. It was the wound from when she took her own life in her previous one.
This time, she would make the wolves turn on one another and use the kingdom as her game board:
The high priest of Northern Yan disguises himself as a captive musician, hoping to win her favor? Perfect. She'll use the blood of his beloved to raise her poison bugs.
Her childhood friend, the general, kneels and begs to become her lover? Let's see how long he can hold out.
The enemy kingdom's hostage prince secretly has a map of the tunnels? Better to trick him into burning his own country's military secrets with his own hands.
When blood splashes across the screen and reveals a map of the frontier defenses, and the hidden pattern on the imperial robe exposes a secret message of treason, she strokes her newest "male favorite" and smiles. "In this game, I want you all to pay your blood debt in blood."
