Su Wan transmigrated into an old-school tragic romance as the ill-fated supporting heroine, the stepping stone who took blades and arrows for the male lead before dying miserably in the Cold Palace.
Luckily, by the time she awakened, the entire plot had automatically loaded as “bullet comments” she could check whenever she wanted.
So...
When her stepmother tried to frame her in the household power struggle, Su Wan recited the evidence of her stepmother’s affair from years ago and sent her to the family temple.
When a noblewoman tried to embarrass her at a palace banquet, Su Wan predicted her every move and turned the tables, humiliating her instead.
When a Noble Consort schemed to harm the Empress, Su Wan “accidentally” tipped off the Emperor and sat back to watch them fight.
The officials of the entire court were baffled. How does this girl know everything? She’s downright uncanny!
The scheming Grand Secretary Lu Li cornered her against a wall, his eyes gleaming with knowing amusement. “Wanw’an, you’ve figured out everyone in the capital. What about me?”
Su Wan looked at him and silently “checked” the bullet comments: [This man is wildly ambitious and will eventually fight for the throne... Wait, how does he know I can see through people?]
Her stepsister, the Crown Prince’s beloved: [As long as she dies, I can become Empress.]
Su Wan smiled. Since fate had let her read the script in advance, she would be the one to set the rules of this game.
With one hand, she punished scoundrels and slapped down her enemies. With the other, she stirred up the storm, turning the bullet comments into her sharpest blade.
But why did the Regent, who wielded power over the whole court and supposedly hated her most, keep climbing over her wall late at night, muttering in confusion, “Why do the words above your head say this prince will love you until death do us part?”
