[Dual Transmigration + Side Character Self-Rescue + Fictional Setting + Political Schemes + Male Lead Uses a System for the Heroine's Conquest + 1v1, Both Leads Are Pure]
Mu Zhao, a college researcher in animal communication, transmigrates into a book.
Good news: She transmigrates into Mu Qingzhao, the vicious second daughter of the Chancellor in The Struggle for the Throne, and wants for nothing.
Bad news: The male lead will run her through with a sword in the end.
She makes her decision without hesitation: strike first, then build up her strength!
With one elaborate scheme, she sends the top scholar, who had broken off their engagement, to the castration platform.
On her way south, a handsome man fakes an accident to entrap her and offers to become her kept lover.
She kicks him out.
First, she has him kidnapped. Then, she sends him poison.
Three days later, a famous early scene from the book: the royal consort selection ceremony.
The male kept lover lifts his eyes and immediately fixes them on her:
"Father, your son also wishes to marry the second Miss Mu."
"She is the only one I will ever love."
Meeting that smoldering gaze, Mu Qingzhao's vision goes black.
Isn't this...
The kept lover who pretended to be frail and helpless?!
That look in his eyes asks, "Miss, have you had your fun?"
Exactly the same.
Fine, fine. So I can't get away from him?
Then I'll take everything!
The male lead's opportunities, power, and connections.
She wants it all.
Everyone be like (⊙﹏⊙):
We told you she's a villainess. Why did you provoke her?
