Reborn as the Deposed Empress: She Rejects the Emperor’s Proposal in Public

She was once the empress who helped her husband ascend the throne, only to see her entire family executed and her son murdered. As poisoned wine burned down her throat, she swore to make them pay in blood.

Reborn on the day of the selection ceremony, she faced the scoundrel emperor’s marriage decree and rejected it in front of everyone. “This humble subject’s daughter refuses!”

Then she turned and allied herself with his mortal enemy: Prince Jing, a ruthless, obsessive madman. She stirred up trouble in the capital with her mastery of medicine and poison, while he protected her with the iron cavalry of the northern frontier. Together, they planned their every move, determined to topple the cannibalistic imperial regime.

When the blade of revenge pressed against the emperor’s throat, he glared at the man behind her. “You’d kill your emperor for him?”

She sneered. “No. I’m doing it for myself.”
