By a Twist of Fate: A Princess’s Game of Power in the Great Yuan Dynasty

Su Xiaolan, an overworked corporate drone, has her soul mistakenly seized by a death messenger. She becomes a restless ghost in the underworld whom no one dares to control, throwing the realm of the dead into chaos. Judge Lu has no choice but to make a deal with her: transmigrate into the Great Yuan dynasty as the newborn eldest princess, help her crown prince brother ascend the throne, and live to the age of eighty-six. In return, she will receive an official post in the underworld, becoming a special death messenger with her own residence and subordinates.

Reborn at last, she becomes Princess Anning, adored by the emperor, but surrounded by deadly threats. The imperial consorts and powerful ministers are watching her closely, while a hidden struggle over the succession brews. And Mo Yuan, the cold-faced bodyguard who never leaves her side, has an identity shrouded in mystery.
