The Grand Princess Rejects the Regretful Ex [Reborn]

[Main story complete]

Li Guanyue, the eldest princess of Great Yue, was a stunning beauty, renowned as the most beautiful woman in the capital. She devoted herself to protecting what her dying father had entrusted to her, yet was misunderstood by the world and branded a treacherous villain who wreaked havoc in the court.

Thankfully, her younger brother, closest friend, and strategist always supported and comforted her.

She believed she had done nothing wrong and had never cared about her reputation. What did it matter if she bore all the blame, as long as Great Yue remained at peace?

After one unexpected crisis after another, Li Guanyue finally saw the treacherous currents beneath the calm surface of her first life:

Her younger brother acted close and trusting, but secretly wanted her dead.

Her friend used her again and again, all to protect the person they loved.

Her strategist plotted for years to seize her power, then fabricated charges and framed her with his own hands.

In the end, all three took everything from her: her family, her friendships, even her identity and her life. They gave it all to the same woman they cherished.

Her life had been a joke, and Li Guanyue died unable to rest in peace.

When she woke again, reborn in her youth, she looked back at the ingrates mired in one predicament after another. She felt nothing, and even considered kicking them while they were down.

Her younger brother had yet to establish himself, and the aristocratic ministers in court were deliberately making things difficult for him. She smiled faintly. "The emperor is not very bright. From now on, add ten more policy essays to his daily lessons, and have him go to bed two hours later."

Her friend rode recklessly through the streets and was framed, accidentally injuring someone and landing in prison. With great sorrow, she said, "If you're so full of youthful spirit, then you should be sent to the bitterly cold frontier to toughen up. Don't return to the capital for ten years."

Her strategist was young and of low birth, and even the servants dared to bully and humiliate him. She sneered. "A stray dog belongs where it belongs. They say pigs and dogs go together. The pigsty out in the suburbs needs a cleaner, so I'm granting you the position. Thank me."

The woman who had stolen her identity stood apart from the world, gentle and serene. The moment she spoke, she used the greater good of the country to guilt-trip Li Guanyue. Li Guanyue waved a hand. "There's still a spot cleaning the pigsty. Go join the one up there."

In this life, she would have everything: power, status, and the realm of Great Yue.

As for the ingrates who had also been reborn and now begged her forgiveness: regret? Making amends? A groveling redemption arc?

Keep dreaming!

One-on-one romance, both leads inexperienced, happy ending.

#The female lead was hated by everyone in her past life, but becomes somewhat beloved after being reborn#

#A groveling redemption arc, satisfying revenge, lots of sweetness#

A gorgeous, bold, ferocious beauty * a goofy puppy around his wife, a ruthless and iron-fisted consort in public

Regent Princess × Great General of a neighboring kingdom

The female lead uses a wheelchair at first, but after being reborn, she has healthy legs.

[Note] The male lead does not appear much.

(Coming soon):

"I'm a Background Character, but My Husband Is an Evil God"

Every novel has a background character like this.

She's timid, cowardly, and honest. Sometimes she merely passes through the protagonists' world, and sometimes she gets swept into the tangled romance between the male and female leads, becoming a tiny sacrificial pawn in their grand love story.

Jiang Rong is bound to a System and transmigrates into a minor character in a small world. Her job is to move the plot along and achieve a perfect happy ending.

She dutifully follows the walkthrough and works hard.

But she has no idea that her arrival has awakened the unspeakable beings sleeping in these small worlds. One after another, they open their eyes and fixate on her with rapt fascination.

After the mission has been underway for a while, the System can no longer stand it. [Jiang Rong, that's enough.]

Stop twisting the male lead, the second male lead, the villain, and even the female lead into evil gods, then turning them into your husbands.

Being able to randomly pick an evil god as your husband in every little world, then win its love, really is a special talent.

[Main story told in third person]

World One: The rejected true heiress × the family's favored sons (historical)

Jiang Rong was switched at a young age, and even after being found and brought back, she remained the ignored girl whom everyone despised and excluded. Luckily, this wealthy and powerful family had dozens of younger generations, so she barely stood out.

Her elegant eldest cousin and arrogant, headstrong third cousin were making a name for themselves in court, leaving her, a lowly nobody, free of any pressure to survive.

All she had to do was obey her elders and marry another disposable character, die in childbirth, and leave behind a daughter who would one day become entangled in a tangled romance with her cousins. Then her "background character" mission would be complete.

Jiang Rong went about her dull, unchanging life, assuming that her high-ranking, aloof cousins had never noticed her. After all, they carried the hopes of the entire family, and even her adoptive parents had to fawn over them.

Then one day, the disposable character she was destined to marry suddenly died, leaving Jiang Rong at a loss.

And the people who lifted her red bridal veil in his place were her cousins.

But as she watched their shadows flicker by the red candlelight, twisting and stretching across the wall with claws bared, she ultimately didn't dare to timidly call out, "Cousin."

World Two: The vain, self-important hero × his evil, cunning companions and demon kings (fantasy)

Jiang Rong was a hero with no particular talent in an adventure-filled world. The moment she set out on her journey, she made a grand vow to slay the demon king and rescue the princess.

Even though she knew that in her "background character mission," she would become fertilizer for a magic flower, adding a splash of color to the demon king's proposal to the heroine.

Unfortunately, she nearly got eaten by a dragon as soon as she entered the demon king's cave.

Fortunately, a small group of knights rescued her, and she became friends with them.

She was grateful to and admired these powerful, handsome, muscular knights. Hoping to win their friendship, Jiang Rong blushed as she bragged and made up stories about her "achievements."

The knights obligingly praised her. At the instant she lowered her head in guilt, Jiang Rong failed to notice them exchanging mischievous, teasing smiles.

When she saw them sitting with their legs entwined, they told Jiang Rong, [It's too cold in this cave. If you could sit a little closer, Miss Jiang, we could squeeze together and maybe keep warm.]

She believed them and shyly scooted closer, blushing, missing the covetous looks they gave her.

Later, Jiang Rong managed to kill the demon kings and also gained a husband.

In the quiet moments of her peaceful life, she would sometimes vaguely remember that adventure:

Those dragons, magic flowers, vines in the forest, and enormous ancient statues... were all very much like your husband.

Was her husband really human?

To be written:

An innocent, spoiled, beloved junior sister × everyone in a sect tainted by evil spirits

A proud saintess who breaks off her engagement × fragments of a domineering dragon protagonist's soul who share senses

P.S.:

1. Some non-consensual romance.

2. Everyone is inexperienced.

3. The small worlds won't split into separate storylines for now. One-on-one romances will be noted. (Not sure how far Jinjiang will let me go, so this is undecided.)

4. Happy ending.

5. More detailed content warnings will be added in the first chapter when the story starts.

Premise: People should respect and love themselves.
