Lin Yin, a female general renowned for her victories and countless repelled invasions, ultimately died for no clear reason, consumed by the emperor's suspicion and fear of her.
Given another life, she decided to change things up.
Since the emperor always suspected she would raise an army in rebellion and usurp the throne, how could she possibly let him down?
So the female general, who held military power and ruled over the court, knocked on the door late one night of the kingdom's most timid, easily bullied, and unambitious idle prince.
After a series of upheavals, the new emperor successfully ascended the throne, replacing the incompetent deposed ruler.

Lin Yin: With the realm newly at peace, Your Majesty needs to reassure the people and win over the court's key officials. The empress should be chosen from one of their households.
New Emperor: I think the person I most need to win over is the general.
Lin Yin: Huh?
New Emperor: So, would you be my empress, General?

In her previous life, Li Xuan was an idle prince who followed the rules and never involved himself in court affairs, lest he draw his elder brother's suspicion.
The only thing he ever looked forward to was the day his beloved returned to court. He would pretend to run into her on her way to report on military affairs, just to greet her as if by chance.
Until one day, the person he waited for was no longer someone alive, able to smile and speak, but a cold corpse.
Li Xuan seemed to become someone else overnight. He began to seize control of the government and secretly build his own power, forcing the emperor to abdicate. He personally had him executed at Jinling Terrace to avenge her.
Even though he ultimately died beneath the blades of the rebel army himself.
In this life, he had returned to the very beginning. None of the tragedies had happened yet, and he was going to stop them all.
Before he could come up with a detailed plan, the person who haunted his every thought suddenly knocked on his door late at night, leaning against the frame with a smile.

Blurb:
A shameless, carefree underworld goddess who flirts and runs × an unshakable, reserved, aloof God of War
As the female Underworld King who rules the realm of the dead, Ming Changhuan spends her days expanding her territory and strengthening the underworld. But what she loves most is flirting and teasing everyone she meets.
On the battlefield, she spots the handsome, good-looking god who commands the heavenly generals and can't resist tugging on her reins and teasing him. "You're so handsome, my lord. How about coming to my Xuanming Cave to be my little lover?"
Her words have barely left her mouth when a chorus of malicious laughter rises behind her. Even the underworld ghosts start egging them on, drawing out their whistles.
Xuan Yuan, who grew up in the strictly governed Heavenly Realm, has never been mocked and teased like this. His face darkens at her words, and he immediately grips his halberd and swings it through the air at her.
"Hey, wait, don't!" Ming Changhuan dodges frantically, but still can't resist running her mouth. "You look so refined and otherworldly, yet you're so merciless when you swing that thing at people."
The only answer is an even fiercer gust of wind.

Hundreds of years later, Ming Changhuan has long since left the underworld and become an ordinary demon hunter. Looking back on her reckless behavior, all she can say is that she was lucky to survive. Otherwise, she'd have been beaten to death sooner or later for saying whatever came to mind.
By chance, she runs into someone from her past.
He wears a loose, plain black robe. Not a trace of immortal aura remains about him, and as he approaches, all he brings with him is a bone-chilling cold.
"Didn't you say I should come to your Xuanming Cave and be your little lover?" he asks softly.
Ming Changhuan: "???"
"What is it?" His gaze stays fixed on her eyes, a cold smile playing on his lips. "Can you just take back what you said?"
Ming Changhuan: "...I went through a calamity before, and I forgot a lot of things. Um... have we met?"
Xuan Yuan: "..."
-
Ming Changhuan: How do I escape the debts I've racked up by flirting with people?
Waiting for an answer. It's urgent.
Theme: Treasure the present and seize the future.
It turns out! Useless! Meat!
The writing and plot are quite good, but I have a small suggestion. There are many modern words in the text, which somewhat affects the perception, such as "new type" in the last chapter and "architecture" mentioned by Li Xuan.
The end is about spreading flowers~ Can we make a side story? Ahhhhhhh I'm crying and begging~
Finished spreading flowers ~ Please give me a side story
Ah ah ah, there will be an extra episode (little eyes of anticipation)
Ah, I'm actually stuck here.
