A Reborn Empress's Survival Guide

It took Su Yuntang half her life to figure out how to be the mother of a nation. Unfortunately, the ungrateful son she had used and manipulated climbed onto the throne, then sent her to her death with a strip of white silk.

At least, before she died, she finally realized that her short-lived husband had always loved her.

The palace's many beautiful women were merely stand-ins for the woman she had once been.

It wasn't too late to realize the truth, because when she opened her eyes, it was the first year of Yuanhe all over again, and her emperor had just ascended the throne.

Su Yuntang swore that in this life, she would truly treat her emperor well. Anyone plotting to usurp power or raise an army in rebellion would be crushed before they could leave their nest.

As for the consorts in the harem fighting over his favor, as long as they had no designs on her emperor, they could do whatever they liked.

Consort Yi, Concubine Jing, Noble Lady Xu... What did any of them have to do with her? In this life, all she had to do was protect her emperor.

But... why was her emperor acting so strangely, too?

Warnings:

1. The male lead was a scumbag in his past life, and I'm not going to whitewash him. He's starting over in this life, but nobody is claiming he was devoted. He was a scumbag.

2. The female lead is a love-struck idiot who blames herself for the male lead's death. She's an idiot.

3. You can call the characters idiots, but don't insult me. I'm sensitive.

4. This story may really not be to everyone's taste. If you don't want to read it, just click X. I write for fun, and reading should be fun too.
