   #### Yun Miao, a thousand-year-old ferryman, was holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth and burning paper money to the devil. Suddenly, he saw the big guys from the three worlds kneeling all over the Wangchuan River—— The Xuanmen Celestial Master held a yellowed portrait and cried out that the master had returned to his throne. The Demon Lord held a skull crown and said this was the magic weapon you used to pick your teeth. The demon clan elder carried 800 boxes of spiritual stones and begged the demon king to check the account. The Nine Heavens Immortal Lord threw out the marriage letter and sneered: "I am the main palace!" Yun Miao looked at the peach wood sword he used to save the souls of the dead: is this thing actually an ancient artifact? The "Evil Talisman" she gave away casually in the past is now hanging in the Demon Palace as a family heirloom, the bones fed to dogs have become sacred objects in the demon world, and even the paper money burned to lonely ghosts is printed with the secret patterns of the heaven. When the resurgence of spiritual energy triggered a melee in the three realms, Yun Miao crushed the ninety-eighth magic weapon to recognize the master: "How many times have I told you, you have recognized the wrong person!" Three days later, the latest notice was posted at the gate of hell: [Refuse to recognize relatives] [Do not accept the business of reviving the sect] [Heaven forbids recognizing the master anywhere] [Feed Meng Po soup for those who propose an engagement again] #About me I obviously just want to save but I am forced to rule the three realms# [Eating Guide] ★A cool novel about a heroine without CP, the daily life of a max-level boss in Versailles ★The three worlds were all blinded at the scene, and losing one's vest was as natural as breathing ★Shocked!

   "Prince Regent, Your Jiaojiao is the boss behind the scenes" is a wonderful novel that is a combination of group favorite, micro fantasy, crazy criticism and micro drama. The story tells the story of Ming Qingqing, who was a female general in her previous life. After her rebirth, she was burdened with the hatred of her country and her family. She was determined to avenge her hatred and uncover the conspiracy hidden in the dark. She not only wants to compete in the court, but also travels with her friends to explore the mysterious world. However, she found that her family and friends around her were behaving more and more strangely, and they seemed to be hiding unknown secrets. Ming Qingqing's family members range from the poor Taoist priest to the cold-blooded prince and father, to the prime minister's eldest brother, the general's second brother who are too weak to take care of themselves, and the richest third brother. Their behavior is very different from their previous lives, showing a completely different side. But the regent who was out of reach in the previous life is now full of affection and is willing to become a chess piece in her hands and be used by her. This novel has an ups and downs plot, distinctive characters, and is full of reversals and surprises. How Ming Qingqing stays awake in a complicated situation, how she faces challenges with her family and friends, and the emotional entanglement between her and the regent will all become interesting topics for readers to watch. "Prince Regent, Your Jiaojiao is the Boss Behind the Scenes" is a masterpiece that cannot be missed and is worth reading.
