[Farming + Palace Intrigue + Ambitious Villainess]
In her previous life, Xiang An'an gave everything to help her scumbag lover secure the crown prince's position, only to be rewarded with a white silk noose.
Reborn on the day she saved him, Xiang An'an kicked him straight into the river. This time, she's living for herself!
But when she turned to go home, she found her foolishly loyal grandfather carrying back a beggar and hailing him as His Majesty.
Xiang An'an: ...
There's no way to live like this. One is as good as dead, and two are no different.
Just as she was about to act, her golden finger activated: a pocket dimension and spirit herbs!
-
The tyrant is disfigured and poisoned, with a foul, stubborn temper. He keeps looking at her as if she's already dead, and Xiang An'an has no desire to cater to him.
But touching him makes her heart condition better. Hugging him makes a spirit spring appear in her pocket dimension.
For her life and her money, Xiang An'an swallows her pride and begins shamelessly touching and cuddling him.
Zhao Li has always believed his wife, whom he married by convenience, is madly in love with him.
Though her words are sharp, her body tells the truth: she wants to cling to him every chance she gets.
As a man, he owes her for her kindness, so of course he has to protect her.
And so...
The village bully picks on her? Zhao Li cuts his throat with one stroke.
Her scumbag ex-husband pesters her? Zhao Li makes him kneel and call her Mother.
Corrupt officials scheme against her? Zhao Li marches straight back to the capital and drapes the imperial robes over her shoulders.
"This realm is mine," he says, pinning her against the throne. His gaze is dark yet tender. "But I am yours."
