[Female lead transmigrates + two powerful leads + unconventional court intrigue + 1v1 romance + no System]
In the history books, Pei Ji bore the name of a treacherous minister. Even after his death, the records still condemned him: “He sowed chaos in the court and brought ruin to the nation. His death was richly deserved.”
By a twist of fate, Lu Li, a history graduate student on the verge of finishing her degree, transmigrates to the Southern Dynasty. The moment she opens her eyes, she is caught in a deadly crisis.
Lu Li: At first, I had no intention of whitewashing this treacherous minister. But when I opened those old files stained with blood, I realized that every person he killed deserved to die. With blood-soaked hands, he shielded that cowardly dynasty from a barrage of arrows.
Pei Ji: In this life, I have never begged anyone for anything. I ask only that you don’t write me down as a villain in the history books.
