[Princess reborn] [Powerful scheming duo] [Unexpected growth] [Broken engagement in the Golden Hall] [Turning a tyrant around] [Face-slapping comeback] [Scheming princess] [Mad attack dog]
Chu Li was the most honored princess in Great Chu. In her previous life, her father used her as a pawn to stabilize the court. Betrayed by her fiancé, she was given a cup of poison and died in the Golden Hall.
Reborn on the day she was to choose a husband in the Golden Hall, she crushed the scumbag’s betrothal jade pendant underfoot, then took the hand of Xie Yan, the enemy kingdom’s hostage prince, who was covered in blood in a corner. To everyone else, he was a prisoner, but to her, he was the sharpest blade she had ever seen.
The court officials mocked her for picking up a monster that couldn’t feel pain, and even her father waited to see her mauled by the beast. But no one expected that this mad wolf, liable to fly into a frenzy at any moment, would be soothed into perfect obedience by half a pine-nut candy, and willingly risk his life to shield her from every hidden arrow.
Beside the bed, Xie Yan handed her a knife, his eyes red. “My life belongs to Your Highness. You may take it whenever you wish.” Chu Li tied a red ribbon around his scabbard and pulled him into her arms. “I don’t want your life. I only want you to live well and become the one minister of power by my side.”
To hell with the royal clan’s rules about putting the greater good first! In this life, she would not only spoil this mad wolf rotten, she would also bring him along to shatter the false authority of the throne and make everyone who bullied and humiliated her pay in blood!
