Wen Wuqing is reborn in the womb and becomes the unrequited love of Jun Yun, the last emperor of the Dayong Dynasty. Bound by the System, she is ordered to win over the tyrant, Jun Yun.
But he killed Wen Wuqing’s family, abandoned the people of Dayong, and defied heaven by pursuing immortality.
None of it has happened yet. Wen Wuqing thinks she can change him by using her place in his heart...
Only to discover that he loves nothing but an obsession, an identity, and a pastry. What he loves most is imperial power.
“Host, Jun Yun is this world’s chosen one. We selected you to become the person he loves. Only by winning him over and changing him can you save this world’s fate.”
“Why don’t I just take the chosen one’s status for myself?”
The System: ???
Wen Wuqing fakes her death and becomes a female general in the popular army.
At that time, bandits, brigands, and all kinds of forces run rampant throughout Dayong. To hold on to the position of chosen one, she must save Dayong from ruin with her own hands.
She deals with bandits in the countryside with decisive force, and roots out the thieves in the palace.
The schemers at court fall all over themselves to win her favor, and she has ties to the brigands, too.
After she fakes her death, the tyrant changes his ways.
(An alternate-history historical romance, both leads are chaste, one-on-one romance, the second male lead takes the lead. The male lead initially has the second male lead’s character setup. This is not a story entirely centered on a strong female lead. Avoid if that bothers you.)
