[Every powerful figure falls for her | Defies fate | Strong female lead with no lovesick brain | Satisfying political intrigue | Empowers women | Takes down scum and emperors]
Defy fate and change her destiny, wielding love as a blade.
Reincarnated as a doomed demon consort, she is determined to seize the chosen hero’s fortune and take both his empire and his beauties.
She also carefully awakens the extraordinary women in his harem, putting their intelligence, military power, wealth, and mastery of medicine and poison at her service.
When the so-called chosen one’s wings are clipped and his fortune is gone, she joins forces with the beauties and powerful ministers to rule the world.
The regent, who holds power over the entire court, pins her against the palace wall. “Since you’ve provoked me, you’ll have to keep doing so for the rest of your life.”
The ruthless eunuch serves her every day, washing and dressing her. “Your Highness, please show your servant some affection.”
The aloof, ascetic Imperial Preceptor begs with reddened eyes. “Don’t leave me behind. If you want me to be a substitute, I’ll be a good one.”
The spy prince, disguised as a woman, climbs into her bed again. “Sister, I’m afraid of the dark. I can’t sleep alone. Hold me, please.”
The pampered, rakish Prince Yao knocks softly on the gate of Weiyang Palace. “Sister-in-law, open up. It’s your brother-in-law.”
Only in the end does she learn that this was merely a trial of love, sent to save all living beings. Everyone who followed her was someone she had known before.
