[Easy, Satisfying Read] [Both Leads Reborn] [Revenge Achieved] [No Forgiveness] [Sweet Romance]
She won't be a sheltered maiden dependent on others. She'll be the one moving the pieces in a chaotic age: the ultimate female lead in political scheming.
Poisoned to death in the Cold Palace, the two return together. In this life, she wants blood, and he will sharpen the blade for her.
Si Nian is reborn ten years in the past, still the legitimate daughter of the Si family, schemed against by her half-sister and despised by the crown prince. Having risen from the ashes, her heart is as hard as iron, and she vows to make everyone who wronged her pay in blood. She sees through their schemes and tears away her hypocritical half-sister's virtuous facade; with words that shock the court, she exposes the future emperor's fatal weakness right on the spot.
Just as she thinks this will be a lonely road to revenge, the man who died fighting for her in their previous life, the God of War, Prince Jing Yan Bietian, returns with the same memories. He storms into her life, calling it a "partnership" while making her the sole object of his devotion.
From then on, when she battles rivals within the household, he cuts down their allies at court; as she plans each move, he stands behind her as her strongest support. Together, husband and wife crush villains and lesser foes, invincible at every turn.
As her enemies kneel in tears and beg for mercy, Si Nian sneers, "Forgiving you is the Buddha's business. My job is to send you to meet him." Beside her, Yan Bietian takes her hand, his gaze tender. "Whatever my wife desires, my sword will point toward. This vast realm is worth less than one of your smiles."
Don't indulge in love, don't be trapped in the back house, this is what ancient power-seeking literature should look like! The heroine uses resourcefulness as a blade to break through the shackles of the world. From secret fights in the house to games in the court, she works step by step, with pattern and edge hidden in every step. There is no silly halo, only sober balance and firm protection. The setting of two strong men side by side adds to the tension. The logic of the conspiracy line is online, with twists and turns, and the heroine's growth arc is full and moving. After reading it, I said "this is the ultimate posture of the heroine"!
