The Entire Court Is My Enemy? The Wicked Woman Returns to the Capital and Slaughters Her Way Through

After her twin sister died, Tang Xiyan was forced by her grandfather to return to the family estate and take her place.

Everyone in the capital knew that the fourth young lady of the Tang family was supposed to be a sickly girl waiting to die. Now she was suddenly full of life, as if it were merely the last flicker before death.

The emperor treated her like a blade, the powerful treated her like a monkey, the court was full of holes, and her own home was a sieve. Every one of them thought they were destined for greatness.

No matter. If they all wanted to play, then no one would get out alive!

She stirred up trouble and set them against one another. She never got her hands dirty, yet reaped all the rewards.

Pei Ji saw through Tang Xiyan's identity the moment they met.

She set fires, and he covered her tracks.

She killed, and he hid the evidence.

The onlookers kept handing her knives, because they were both outcasts of the world, intent on upending the court and slaughtering everyone in their way.

Tang Xiyan said, “Prefect Pei, you've kept your true abilities well hidden. You're a sharp, dependable blade, the perfect tool for the job.”

A sly look gleamed in Pei Ji's eyes. “You use me to commit crimes and pave your way, and I'll use you to ease the loneliness of the rest of my life.”

“You're the wolf, and I'm the jackal. History will remember us, and you won't get rid of me.”
