My Widowed Sister-in-Law [Reborn]

[Gentle, scheming empress x princess with formidable martial skills] “Sister-in-law, open the door. It’s your brother.” Xiao Jingyi never imagined something this absurd would happen to her. Panic-inducing. But intriguing. The top beauty and scholar of the capital, her sister-in-law and the current empress, had become her lover. Xiao Jingyi couldn’t stop herself from falling for her, letting that woman have her way with her. But the love she thought they shared, the devotion she thought would last until death, couldn’t withstand that woman’s cold dismissal: “It was just a game.” Just a game? Then why not keep playing forever? It wasn’t as if she couldn’t accept that. She looked at Xu Wanyue, who wore an indifferent expression. “I got bored.” Bored? How could she get bored? What right did she have to get bored? She had dragged Xiao Jingyi into this mire, so how could she be the first to walk away? Xiao Jingyi couldn’t accept it. She wanted Xu Wanyue. Even if it was just a game, she wanted Xu Wanyue to keep playing with her. · Xu Wanyue opened her eyes and found herself back on the day of the imperial wedding. She had become empress, but the emperor despised her. This grand, celebrated marriage had begun with the emperor neglecting her on their wedding night. Just as before, that evening the person who was brought into her bed was still the Princess of Changning, Xiao Jingyi. Seeing Xiao Jingyi again left Xu Wanyue dazed. In her previous life, one fateful misunderstanding that night had led Xiao Jingyi to give nearly everything for her. She had gone from a pleasure-seeking princess who took no interest in state affairs to a regent who seized power from the emperor, step by step putting Xu Wanyue’s son on the throne. But Xiao Jingyi had ultimately died at the hands of the remnants of the rebel faction. Such a wonderful person, and Xu Wanyue hadn’t even seen her one last time. In this new life, she would never again let Xiao Jingyi die alone amid the chaos of war. Just as in her previous life, Xiao Jingyi loved her, respected her, and treasured her. But when the emperor deliberately turned his gaze toward Xiao Jingyi, Xu Wanyue finally realized too late that Xiao Jingyi had died because she was connected to Xu Wanyue. Xu Wanyue had been the one who caused her death. ---Reader's Guide--- 1. The child in the previous life was not biologically theirs. 2.
