Why kill her? The Imperial Consort is forced to be reborn.
Her name is Jiao Jiao, the little tyrant of the Great Xia dynasty.
At one, she lounges on the imperial throne. At two, she beats up a duke. At three, she pins the Crown Prince Ye Heng beneath her and beats him until he cries.
The emperor, her uncle despite their lack of blood ties, claps from the sidelines. “Well done, Jiao Jiao!”
In her previous life, after Ye Heng became emperor, he knelt by her bed with red eyes and begged her:
“Be my empress in our next life! If Ye Heng in the next life won’t give you the throne, then take it from him!”
Reborn at sixteen, she returns to the capital and attends her first spring banquet. She plans to spare Qin Wu, the boy raised to be her husband.
Suddenly, a voice pops into her head:
“Mother! Hurry and find my biological father, Xie Lanting, so you can rekindle your love! Otherwise I won’t be born!”
Fine, then.
She takes Qin Wu straight to a grove for a chat.
Ye Heng rushes over and is forced to stand guard at the entrance.
Xie Lanting spends the night waiting outside, leaning on his sickly body and stifling even his coughs.
Her son screams in her head:
“Mother! Who am I supposed to call Dad?!”
Jiao Jiao has no time for him.
The people who harmed her in her previous life have already begun making their moves again.
Three men, one drama?
Men are just a distraction. Let them sing their hearts out; she has more important things to do.
She will drag out every one of the vermin who harmed her and stamp them into the ground.
Family, children, close friends, lovers, relatives, power...
This time, she’ll have it all.
