(Strong heroine + Male rivals competing for her + Transmigrates into a book + System. She pursues targets at first, then becomes empress.)
Shen Ruowei transmigrates into a book as the vicious fake heiress. The System tells her to win over the male lead to change her tragic ending.
She decides to cling to the real heiress and coast to an easy win.
But then…
The stern and impartial head of the Censorate keeps climbing over her wall every day, claiming he’s investigating a case.
The womanizing Prince Rui is even more eager to pursue her after she’s insulted him three times.
Her older brother, who’s hated her since childhood, pins her against a wall, eyes red. “You weren’t like this before.”
The merfolk prince of the South Sea chases after her, calling her Big Sister and insisting he wants to be her empress.
The top assassin of the Western Wastes saves her once, and from then on his blade points only at other people.
As the System keeps announcing her progress in winning them over, Shen Ruowei gazes in bewilderment at the growing crowd of men in front of her.
“I only crooked my finger at you once. Why are you all throwing yourselves at me?”
Later, she becomes Beiming’s first empress, ruling over ten thousand miles of territory and expanding her realm.
She says, “Sorry, Your Majesty loves the realm more than handsome men!”
