The Treacherous Heroine Is Reborn as Everyone's Dream Girl

Cheng Yunjiao transmigrated into a book. The System promised that if she took down the incompetent, tyrannical old emperor and lived until the new emperor ascended the throne, she could return to the modern world and enjoy a life of comfort and security. To complete her mission, she followed the plot and disguised herself as a man to help the male lead ascend the throne, even becoming a treacherous official in the eyes of the world. In the end, the ungrateful male lead gave her poisoned wine, and she died just before she could return to the modern world. When she opened her eyes, Cheng Yunjiao had been reborn. At this point, she was still a study companion at the Imperial Academy. Her mentor was the State Preceptor, her close friend was a general, and her fiancé was the crown prince. As for Shen Zhuo, the male lead who had killed her in her previous life, he was now merely a sickly prince with no power or influence, at the mercy of others. Thinking back on everything that had happened in her previous life, Cheng Yunjiao resolved to learn from her mistakes: The System had only told her to help the new emperor ascend the throne. It never said which new emperor! Surely her mentor, her close friend, and her fiancé were all better choices than Shen Zhuo? So she began urging everyone to rebel. Today, she persuaded her scholarly mentor to vie for the position of chancellor. Tomorrow, she egged on her close friend, who commanded a vast army, to march on the palace. The day after that, she talked her sweet, dim-witted crown prince fiancé into seizing the throne. As for Shen Zhuo, she sent him an assassination package every day. She absolutely couldn't let him live to the end. Gradually, things started to go wrong. Her mentor, a man of unyielding scholarly integrity, bent the knee only once, to beg the emperor to cancel her engagement to the crown prince. On the day she married, her close friend launched a rebellion. He didn't kill the emperor or seize the imperial seal. Instead, he barged into her bedchamber reeking of liquor. The sweet, dim-witted crown prince was even worse. In the chaos, he stabbed his own father to death, handed her the imperial seal, and tried to flee with her to the ends of the earth. Cheng Yunjiao screamed inwardly: "You big shots! Seize the throne! Ascend the throne! If none of you becomes emperor, how am I supposed to get home?" With things as they were, she had no choice but to take the imperial seal and head to the frontier, where she found Shen Zhuo. The prince of old had become a commoner, yet his air of noble refinement had not diminished in the slightest. When she presented him with the imperial seal, he didn't even glance at it. Instead, he stared intently at Cheng Yunjiao and smiled as if he had expected this all along: "Jiaojiao, you know I want more than the throne."
