Marrying the Villain and Winning by Doing Nothing

[A hardworking past life, a carefree present-day princess x a ruthless regent]

As the eldest daughter of the Grand Princess, Jiang Wuqiong was beautiful as a flower, yet unable to protect herself.

A single imperial decree made her Princess Shouning and sent her off to Beiliang for a political marriage. In the end, she died beneath the arrow of Beiliang's mad king.

She closed her eyes, then opened them again, and found herself back before her investiture.

Remembering the arrow that had pierced her chest, Jiang Wu refused to sit by and let fate repeat itself.

She rushed straight to the inner palace and dropped to her knees before the Empress Dowager. "I beg you, Grandmother, to arrange a marriage for me! I love the Regent!"

They said Regent Xiao Qi was tyrannical and unpredictable.

They said the Regent's manor was a living hell, no place for a person to stay.

They said he had been plotting against her all along...

But Jiang Wu had no choice.

Xiao Qi was the last great general of Southern Zhou. If she secured a betrothal to him, there was no way she'd be sent off for a political marriage... right?

Xiao Qi often wondered how that bright, lovely young woman could force herself to look happy in this cruel world that devoured people.

He longed to see her trembling and weeping in fear.

Then, one day, that little caged bird flew right into his hand.

She pleaded in a soft voice that she would marry him if only he let her live.

Xiao Qi thought, That won't do.
