The Abandoned Consort Behind Palace Walls: The Emperor’s Ex-Wife Is a Queen

I, Shen Jinghong, was once the empress of the Dayin Empire, but Xiao Jingyuan deposed me for being “childless” and drove me from the palace. Three years later, I returned as an advisor to the Zhenbei Marquis’s residence, only to find him holding a woman who looked seven-tenths like me. She was the replacement he had found.

Evil martial arts masters coveted my military power, my jealous consort repeatedly schemed against me, and even his mama’s boy of a younger brother wanted to steal the military achievements I had planned. Xiao Jingyuan wanted to rekindle our old romance, but I only sneered. “Save Your Majesty’s devotion for your replacement.” Within these palace walls, what I, Shen Jinghong, want has never been love. I want the power to protect myself and those I wish to protect.
