Reborn as a doomed cannon-fodder character, destined to have her whole family executed from the start?
Shen Jingci has this to say: Romance-addled fools, get lost. Scumbag men and shameless women, stay away. I’ll defy fate and change my own destiny!
The original story tortured me a thousand times over, but I tear through its plot like paper. So what if he’s the Crown Prince? So what if she’s my half-sister? And what if my fate is set in stone?
The one person she never should have crossed was the story’s most unhinged villain. Everyone feared him, but she alone dared to stand by his side.
He was Prince Jing, cold-blooded and ruthless, a traitor in the eyes of the world. Yet he reserved all his tenderness for her, protecting her, spoiling her, and trusting her. For her, he would slay gods and Buddhas and bring an empire to its knees.
“Who dares lay a finger on what belongs to me?”
“I want both you and the world.”
She built her career, and he handed her the blade. She crushed her enemies, and he had her back. She wanted the world, so he helped her overthrow the rotten dynasty!
From cannon fodder to empress, from allies to partners who would die for each other, this is a story of mutual salvation and two powerful leads. Packed with satisfying moments, free of melodrama and misunderstandings, with an unhinged villain’s devotion turned up to the max and explosive political intrigue!
Watch a clear-headed, formidable heroine join forces with an unhinged villain to defy fate, command the realm, and claim both the world and the one she loves!
