Reborn as a Short-Lived Legitimate Daughter, She Vows to Live to a Hundred

[Transmigrate into a Book + Love After Marriage + Unhinged Prince + Underdog Reversal]

Jiang Zao transmigrated into a book. The moment she opened her eyes, she became a doomed princess consort who wouldn't survive her wedding night.

None of the prince's first three consorts had lived through their wedding night.

Tonight, it was her turn.

Prince Li, Xiao Ling, pressed his sword to her throat, his gaze icy and savage. "Are you here to die too?"

Jiang Zao dropped to her knees in terror and cried out, "I'm the one who brought you pastries all those years ago!"

To her surprise, the man sneered. "Kill her."

When she was backed into a corner, she started cursing, only to discover that someone had poisoned her with a parasitic curse. She was a disposable pawn sent to assassinate Prince Li.

Sleep with him, and they would die together.

Don't, and the curse would kill her.

She thought she was doomed, but Xiao Ling coldly tossed out a single line:

"You have one month to prove your worth."

And so Jiang Zao launched into frantic survival mode:

Torture her scumbag father, tear into her half-sister, and strip the Prime Minister's residence bare to fund the army!

Set up shops, hoard silver, and help the prince make money and seize power!

Whoever provoked her, she dealt with. Whoever stood in her way, she crushed!

She thought she was only trying to stay alive.

Who knew she'd end up spoiling the cold-blooded King of Hell rotten?

Later...

Xiao Ling held her captive in his arms, his voice low and husky.

"A-Zao, my wish is to marry you and make you my empress, for all eternity."

Jiang Zao: ???

That wish was too terrifying. She fled in the middle of the night.

Xiao Ling caught up and blocked the doorway, his voice low and husky.

"My A-Zao doesn't want to help me make my wish come true..."

"Then I'll do it myself."
