The Lone Phoenix's Scheme: The Cold King's Poisonous Queen Strikes Back

On the night she was reborn in a sea of blood, Shen Mingyuan transformed from a lonely daughter of a military family into a poison-laced phoenix.

Her delicate hands soak palace wines with poison, while beneath the skin of a gentle healer lies a blade sharp enough to tear through the court.

Wielding memories of her past as a weapon, she moves step by step across the Regent Xiao Jingheng’s board, riddled with hidden agents, poisoning every move. She must tear the flesh from her enemies’ bones while holding on to the fragments of memory that are fading faster by the day.

When the iron-blooded prince burns every dispatch from the border for her, and the enemy crown prince kneels to kiss her bloodstained hem, she sees the hand controlling the game in her bronze mirror. The woman in the mirror parts her red lips: it is her own reflection, layered with the selves of both her lives.
