I Want to Kill Him, but Our Souls Have Swapped

[Timid God of War Empress vs. Frail, Gorgeous, Delicate Male Favorite of the Princess's Residence (Master of Wild Theories)]

Everyone says the empress, Tang Wenzhi, is a peerless warrior, decisive and ruthless, with a noble spirit and an undefeated record.

In truth, she is timid and soft, afraid of trouble and prone to tears, a fainthearted young woman at heart.

One night, beneath the cold moonlight, Tang Wenzhi glimpses a terrifying ending in a precognitive dream:

She is killed with a single stroke by Yuan Lingxu, the ailing, breathtakingly beautiful male favorite of the Princess's Residence!

Scared out of her wits, Tang Wenzhi quickly makes up her mind: strike first!

The first time she tries to poison him, her fingertips tremble as she lowers her eyes and offers him the poisoned cup.

Seeing that she doesn't dare meet his gaze, Yuan Lingxu's mind races through every possibility: The empress is so bashful, she must be in love with me.

She arranges an assassination, sneaking up behind him to kill him, but somehow ends up taking an arrow for Yuan Lingxu instead.

Even more alarming, this man can fight ten people at once, and his methods are vicious, utterly at odds with his gentle appearance!

After several failed assassination attempts, Tang Wenzhi decides to fake her death to save her own life.

But as she flees, she slips into the water and switches souls with Yuan Lingxu.

Tang Wenzhi stares at the handsome man in the mirror, ecstatic: Now that we've switched bodies, she won't be the one who gets killed in the prophecy.

“Perfect! From now on, you're mine!”

Yuan Lingxu happens to overhear her and secretly rejoices: The empress really has been in love with me all along!

Both leads are strong and devoted only to each other. The heroine isn't love-brained. No angst, just goofy comedy from beginning to end.

Theme: Nothing is absolute. Everything depends on what people do.
