A Powerful Clan Patriarch Reincarnates as a Sickly Female Supporting Character

My new novel, Have We Successfully Rebelled Today?, launches on June 15. I hope you'll support it! In her previous life, Xiao Luan was a noblewoman who disguised herself as a man. She outshone all the other young men in her clan, rose to become head of the Lanling Xiao family, and from then on shaped the realm's affairs, supported the young emperor, and wielded power across the court. If you asked Xiao Luan what her biggest regret from her previous life was: Xiao Luan: I never got to wear gorgeous dresses! I never got to wear all kinds of beautiful hairpins and flower crowns! When Xiao Luan was reborn as a frail supporting female character in the modern world, she thought being frail was no problem at all, as long as she was a woman! From then on, all she thought about every day was wearing every beautiful dress and adorning herself with every gorgeous piece of jewelry. The original male lead: If you'll agree to break off our engagement, you can ask for anything! Xiao Luan: I don't ask for much. Just a twelve-panel moonlight dress in gold-woven brocade, and a matching ruby phoenix crown! The original male lead looked up the price of brocade, then calculated the fabric required for a twelve-panel dress and the materials and cost of making the crown. He realized he probably couldn't afford it. Do you have any idea how much things cost these days? Xiao Luan: Being reborn is wonderful. So many dresses, such beautiful hair ornaments. The only problems are that she's a little poor and the clothes are a little expensive! There was no helping it. To wear the little dresses she'd dreamed of in her previous life, Xiao Luan had to start her own studio. Before she knew it, she'd become a leading figure in the revival of Hanfu culture. Xiao Luan: "Rosy cheeks and painted brows mirror the clouds of Chu; atop a peach-flower steed, she wears a pomegranate-red skirt." Look, this is our new Tang-dynasty pomegranate skirt.
