The Bewitching Consort Is Building Her Image Again

Jiang Shuibai received a script for a new world from the System: she was to become a wicked imperial consort who brought ruin to her country, helping neighboring Chu swiftly conquer Shu and achieve the grand goal of unifying the realm.

Forced by circumstance, Jiang Shuibai, whose personality was nothing like that of a wicked consort, began dutifully playing the part. First, a proper wicked consort had to learn how to smear loyal ministers.

Jiang Shuibai: Chancellor Cheng Junzhu doesn't deserve his position! He... he litters when he goes out, and doesn't wash his hands before eating. It's utterly uncouth!

The foolish emperor: It seems my beloved consort has a quarrel with the chancellor. How about I strip him of his office and have him serve you?

Jiang Shuibai: ... (So much for being your beloved consort! Aren't you afraid I'll have an affair?)

Next, she had to treat loyal ministers as cruelly as a cold wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Jiang Shuibai: Lord Cheng, from today on, you'll be serving tea, fetching water, and sweeping the courtyards.

Cheng Junzhu: All right.

Jiang Shuibai: Fine, but why are you smiling?

Cheng Junzhu: It is my honor to serve Your Highness. But when you spoke just now, there was a hint of apprehension in your eyes. You were only pretending to be bossy, which was quite endearing... If you don't like it, I won't smile again.

Jiang Shuibai: ... (How is he taking this so well? Doesn't he find it humiliating to do a eunuch's chores?)

Though Jiang Shuibai often had a head full of questions, she never lost hope in life. Until one day...

System: Sweetie, you got the wrong country. We're supposed to be working on the one next door.

Jiang Shuibai: ?!

Jiang Shuibai took a deep breath. She could only delete her account and start over, working hard again in a new country.

Cheng Junzhu was a virtuous chancellor in the eyes of the world, gentle and kind, with the welfare of the people at heart. No one could imagine him being a "treacherous usurper."

But nobody knew that the person he thought about day and night was the seemingly arrogant wicked consort in the imperial palace.

After a coup, Cheng Junzhu seized the throne, a position above all others. Just as he was about to embrace her openly, his beloved died the day before his coronation.

His past delusions and obsessions turned to ashes. Cheng Junzhu burned the phoenix crown and bridal robes, sealed the inner palace, and resolved to follow her last letter and spend the rest of his life as a good emperor. But after conquering neighboring Shu, he captured a woman in the Shu palace who looked exactly like that wicked consort.

Cheng Junzhu: Heh.

A wicked consort forced to care about the realm but carried by a powerful partner x a former chancellor turned king whose career is thriving but who keeps getting stood up by the wicked consort

The setting is extremely loose. Basically, whatever the author says goes.

My next story will be called After Reaching the Ten-Billion Goal~

At the System's behest, Yuan Shaoyang finally reached her goal of becoming a billionaire and the richest person in Huaguo. But her joy was short-lived: she died.

Yuan Shaoyang, who still had ten billion she hadn't spent: I have a censored word to say. Should I say it or not?

System: That's okay! As a reward, we've prepared a new identity for you as an heir to a fortune worth hundreds of millions.

Yuan Shaoyang felt reassured, but after receiving her new identity, she discovered...

She really was an heir, but the fortune she was inheriting was the very ten billion she'd earned herself. And there were more than twenty other heirs just like her, each hoping to take the whole fortune for themselves.

Most importantly, why did she have to win over Yuan Shaoying to inherit the money?

Yuan Shaoying, the new CEO of the Shaoguang Group, was said to be cold, ruthless, and very difficult to deal with.

The time they spent together had seemed like a dream. When the dream shattered, Yun Shaoying heard someone whisper in his ear, "Take revenge. Your light has gone out."

Five years later, he asked himself, "Can I go find her now? Who else is there?"

That's right, there's also her pack of self-serving "family members."

Yuan Shaoying smiled. Who wouldn't take the bait when ten billion was dangling in front of them?

But he hadn't expected...

Among the fish that took the bait, one person looked so much like her.
