Reborn as a Black Lotus, I Crush Scum While the God of War Prince Chases His Wife

On the night the poisoned wine burned through her throat, Shen Jinghong watched her half-sister wear her phoenix robes and heard the scumbag emperor say, “The entire Shen family has been executed. You deserve to die.” As he fell in battle, Ye Xuanting still remembered the Shen family he had failed to protect because of a misunderstanding, and the final glimpse of the gentle empress.

Both carried memories of their past lives and tested each other. She used his military forces to crush her enemies, while he used her intelligence to investigate cases.
