One-sentence summary: A concubine-born daughter who lived a miserable life in her previous life is reborn, while Rong Sixie happens to transmigrate into the role of the vicious legitimate younger sister who used to bully her.
Note: This novel is also titled The Peerless Commandery Princess. The female lead's name comes from the line, "May you gather these blossoms, for they are the most beloved of all." Xie is pronounced like "gather."
Official blurb:
In many stories about household rivalries, there's always a female supporting character like this: high-born and from an illustrious family, but arrogant, domineering, and willful. In the end, she's face-slapped by the heroine, who was born into a humble family but is reasonable and sensible, and successfully marries the emperor, a prince, or a royal heir.
Many revenge stories also feature a vicious legitimate younger sister. Relying on her mother being the lady of the household, she throws her weight around and bullies her sisters. In the end, her reborn elder half-sister grinds her into the dirt, ruining her reputation and even dragging down her stepmother and maternal family.
Rong Sixie happens to fit both roles. In her life, there's a beautiful girl from a humble family whom everyone adores, a reborn half-sister bent on revenge, and all sorts of relatives who are honey-tongued but treacherous.
It seems being a commandery princess isn't so easy after all...

Later, when noble families taught their children to read, they always used Xiao Jingduo as an example: "Study hard and don't go astray. Don't be like him, or you'll bring shame upon the words of the sages."
* * * * *
People's opinions of Xiao Jingduo were divided, and his most heavily criticized trait was his complete lack of a scholar's integrity. He willingly served as the regent princess's blade, risking his life for her.
Until, one day, Xiao Jingduo married the regent princess.

Reader's guide:
1. The heroine is infuriating to the max and is committed to her glamorous, wicked-woman persona. The story starts slowly, so please be aware.
2. The author believes that being reborn doesn't change your brain. After reading too many rebirth-and-revenge stories, the author wanted to tell one from another perspective.
3. New chapters are posted promptly at 6 p.m. every day. The rest of the time is spent fixing typos.
4. This is a fictionalized Tang dynasty setting. All the research was hastily done by the lazy author, so if there are any obvious errors, please point them out in the comments. Thank you~~
5. No review bombing. Reasoned discussion of the plot is welcome, but please do not make personal attacks. This is the original cover.
Theme: Growth and responsibility
I have always found the script of cheating in rebirth to be disgusting. Could it be that stupid people are smart after rebirth? Finally read a book with normal logic
Finished spreading flowers! !!! Rong Hao is really miserable, the whole process is in the background hahahahahahahahaha
As expected of the person Rong Siqing likes. The family named Jiang is really stupid.
My favorite protagonist's character is really good-looking.
The new emperor is really a saint if he can tolerate the heroine and the male protagonist.
This story is still good to read, but the pace is slow at the beginning, and I almost gave up on the story. Because I like other stories, I kept reading and it gradually got better.
It's over... [Sigh] I can't get out of it, Ah Xie, Jin Yan, Hao Nan, Siqing... The characters are very fleshed out, giving me the feeling that they are not just flat people on paper, but living in my mind, three-dimensional, with thoughts and emotions.
Moreover, the background of the novel, family entanglements, court intrigues, etc. Are all described very realistically, as if the colorful Tang Dynasty 1,300 years ago was presented in front of me.
Dad, you are fine! Come on, I hope you can write better novels. Don't rush to write new articles, we can wait for you.
Ending the show, the last chapter was stabbed
I finished reading it after three days of reading~I suddenly felt envious of the wanton and lovely Chang'an ladies in the author's works~
I always thought I had watched this movie (I don't know when I collected it) but I just couldn't remember the plot, so I had to buy the ending first. When I saw Princess Waguang, it looked really familiar, but I casually clicked on a chapter and it seemed like I didn't buy it. I was stupid.
(Don't hit me. I either read the pirated article or it looks familiar to me. There may be other articles that look familiar)
