Blurb:
Before the tyrant Zhu Qi met his gruesome end, Ban Shi was the breathtaking beauty of the Ling King’s palace, a wicked consort accused by the world of bringing ruin to the kingdom. But when Chu Qiong stormed in with his troops, the moon in the sky became a bird in a cage overnight.
[Regicide Consort x Warlord of a Turbulent Era]
With the fall of the Ling Kingdom, Ban Shi tumbled overnight from the clouds into the mud.
She heard that the new king, Chu Qiong, was a decisive and capable young ruler. Hoping to shed her wicked-consort title and regain her freedom, Ban Shi brought every trick in her arsenal to bear: artfully playing weak, hinting at intimacy, drawing close and then pulling away, gazing at him with tender affection.
But Chu Qiong met her only with cold indifference, never wavering in the slightest.
To serve beside a ruler is like walking beside a tiger. Ban Shi schemed, endured, and kept her head down until she finally secured a place at his side where she could live in peace.
When Chu Qiong led his troops north, she got what she wanted. The moment an opportunity came, she slipped out of the palace.
She turned around and promptly forgot that man.
She left without hesitation, vanishing without a trace.
Everything she had shown Chu Qiong was false. After she had offered incense at her younger sister's grave, found a suitable man to marry, and prepared to leave her dazzling past behind and start a new life...
On a stormy night, Chu Qiong stood before her, his tall figure like a mass of dark clouds blotting out the entire sky.
The man looked down at her, clad in black and silver armor, a bloodied sword in his hand. Blood mingled with rainwater and trailed behind him as he spoke in a cold, deep voice.
"--Shi Shi, did I ever tell you..."
"--If you were going to run, you should have gone far away and never let me find you again."
#Everyone says Chu Qiong is a diligent ruler who has no interest in women.
Only Ban Shi knows that beneath his unreadable exterior lies a madness more terrifying than Zhu Qi's. #
[Bonus Scene]
Chu Qiong, military governor of Qizhou, sent his troops into Jiangnan Circuit, bathed the royal city in blood, and killed the tyrant with his own hands.
The Ling Kingdom fell overnight, and Prince Xiao's fame resounded throughout the land. Everyone said Chu Qiong was a war god reborn, born with the bearing of an emperor.
Only Chu Qiong knew that he was not the one who killed the tyrant.
The day Chu Qiong stormed in with his troops, he saw the legendary wicked consort crouched over the tyrant, stabbing him again and again. Blood spattered her little face, like a red plum blossom standing proud in the snow.
Her beautiful eyes never blinked, and they blazed with madness.
[The male lead is a warlord prince, calculating and ruthless. He will not be redeemed.]
[The female lead loves her younger sister most of all and is not love-brained.]
[The male lead is a virgin; the female lead is not.]

Why does the heroine have to live and die every day? She can't endure it, let alone be decisive. She's a bit disappointed.
A group of gods said that the female protagonist was not worthy, but it was clear that the male protagonist was not worthy. He allowed the erring female protagonist to slap the female protagonist dozens of times, and even misunderstood the female protagonist and killed the female protagonist with a sword. He himself did not suffer much, right?
I am a fan today, hahaha
Not only did I not write much, I didn't even update. It was a long night and I had no intention of sleeping.
To be honest, I was very disappointed when I saw this. I was so disappointed that I just stopped here. The female protagonist actually doesn't owe her sister anything. She has sacrificed too much for her sister. It can be seen that she has fallen in love with the male protagonist. I thought she had learned to love herself and others. I thought Ban Shi would have a better way of handling it. After all, she was so weak, tough, tolerant and smart at the beginning. Before, she felt that she was not worthy of being loved, so after some persuasion, she tried to accept Li Sui. Unfortunately, it was inappropriate, and the male protagonist cut off the relationship that had just begun. I thought she learned about self-love, how not to let down the love of others, and how to love others. It turns out that I thought it was all~
Hufufu, kneel down and beg the heroine and Li Suihe
Speaking of the current situation of the male and female protagonists, how can the female protagonist fall in love with the male protagonist? It feels like a lot of effort

Thank you ~ I like your writing very much, but I didn't expect that the follow-up development would be like this. The conflict between the two is indeed quite sharp. Not only does the heroine have no energy to love, but her own self-esteem has also been trampled under her feet in the process of pleasing men, so it is really difficult for her to truly accept the hero. I quite like this kind of twists and turns, thank you~ for bringing me such a story
The heroine is not worth it. When I saw this, I just wanted to ask if I should change the heroine!!!
