Shen Yun Zhao was reborn.
In her previous life, she died on her knees. In this life, she would live by the sword.
Her stepmother stole her family’s estate, the chancellor’s nephew stole her cousin’s title of top scorer, and the crown prince wanted her entire family dead.
She sought out Xiao Yan, the “useless prince” mocked by the entire court.
“Help me kill people, and I’ll help you seize the throne.”
He wiped his blade. “How many?”
“Let’s start with a whole nest.”
Later, on the day he ascended the throne, the assembled officials knelt before him.
She stood at his side, unbowed.
He took her hand in front of everyone.
“My empress stands equal with me.”
It begins with revenge and ends with an emperor and empress. Everything in between is killing.
