The Phoenix Rises Over the Realm: Reborn as Empress in an Age of Prosperity

Modern-day protagonist: Lin Shutong, 32, CEO of the multinational corporation Starpath Capital. She excels at capital operations, supply chain management, and delivering infrastructure projects, having once led the construction of a western logistics hub. She transmigrates after a car accident. Ancient identity: Su Qinghe, 19, Empress of Great Yan and daughter of a military family. Her father, Su Yi, was once a general guarding the border, but three years ago he was stripped of his title and imprisoned over a “treason” case, leaving the family in decline. After three years in the palace without a child, she is looked down on by the harem for being “a curse to her husband” and “without influence.” The original host falls into a lake due to depression, and Lin Shutong transmigrates just after she is rescued. Emperor Xiao Chengyu: 28, ascended the throne as a young man. Suspicious and decisive by nature, he remains wary of both the imperial harem and the court because his father died early and powerful ministers hold sway. He has doubts about the old Su family case, but has not hastily overturned the verdict.
