My Four Princes Consort Are Fighting, and I Just Want to Watch!

[Reborn + yandere + satisfying revenge + cutthroat suitor rivalry + scheming heroine] She died four times, each at the hands of a different prince consort. Reborn into her fifth life, Song Lingjia finally figured it out: rather than let them kill her one by one, she might as well marry them all. The newly crowned top scholar wanted to use her to climb the social ladder. The Duke’s eldest grandson and his mistress joined forces to scheme against her. The young general looked gentle but was ruthless inside, while the heir of Changning Marquis treated her as a pawn in his rebellion. This time, she smiled sweetly and chose all four of them as her consorts. Then she shut the doors and watched them keep one another in check, tearing each other apart. She offered them sweet dates laced with poison and tenderness edged with thorns. The sincere love they once scorned was now something they scrambled to win. The top scholar lost sleep over her. The Duke’s eldest grandson abandoned his mistress for her. The young general fought for the honor of holding her horse’s reins. Even that professional rebel had started writing sappy love poems. The four prince consorts schemed against one another at every turn. Today, one would report another; tomorrow, someone else would expose a rival’s secrets. They were all itching to grind each other’s faces into the dirt. Song Lingjia sipped her tea and watched the four of them bicker in the courtyard, looking like dogs fighting over a bone. A kindly smile spread across her face. Go on, then. Work yourselves to the bone, you lot. Before long, everyone at court was talking about how the princess, who had only recently returned to the capital, kept four “loyal dogs.” Only Song Lingjia knew the leash had never been fastened tight. She was waiting. Whoever bared their fangs first, she would snap their neck with her own hands. After all, in this deadly game, the winner takes everything. As for the losers, they wouldn’t even have ashes left behind.
